Guild Wars 2

This video is not mine, just found it on YouTube, I don’t know what to say about this, but this is really sad and funny at the same time, just watch.

LoL…. o.O

I’ve been speechless a few times today. GG

Hot join shouldn’t award any pts but that’s just my opinion. It conditions players to zerg everything and farm glory making ranks useless. The damage has already been done though.

This exact thread…………..oh………………….. was already removed this week
I don’t have my replies in my post history anymore

lol, you guys never joined the glory framing server before.. ?
best part is it says it in HUGE letters in the server menu ^^

shows how much dev’s visit pvp.

I saw a r61 today that was downright atrocious, so I did some asking and found out that many people just farm ranks like this. I think that hotjoins shouldn’t reward rank levels because this is kind of ridiculous.

People want 18 slot bags. I would farm too, but it takes too long.

lol.. what are those, 5 gold per?.. 10 g/h cof1 runs not doing it for you?..

BAN. NOW. Don’t give a kitten…just ban.

Ban ? for what?.. exploiting? not really..

Glory gain in custum arenas/hotjoin should be disabled.

And this too, fixed points to winners like gw1 fame…this nab farming bs has gone too far ranks must mean something it’s the only thing we get from pvp atm and it’s becoming as worthless as glory..from idiots in hotzerg throwing random granades at mid (If you know who i mean..and if you are EU you probably do..) to this…then what? Rank farming bots? You know it’s just a matter of time..

Anet should just fix it as fast as possible. And I see no reason for ban ppl, it is not really an exploit or bug. Pls fix it….

Fix it? The damage has been done. Unless they recount glory gained based on tourny wins. But that would cause another fun day on the Pvp forums.

Wow. That’s ridiculous. I can’t even really think of anything else to add… ha

the whole system and the whole “structure” of pvp should be reworked and redesigned… less grind, more rewards. of course you look for alternative ways to farm glory when you need 75k only for one level and chests from tournament give you 150.

u should just get rank points in real tournaments or soloq not hotjoin….

Welcome to the world of games where rank progression is based on time spent instead of player skill
Just like pretty much any other mmorpg (even Daoc was like that), at least here you don’t get extra powerful by doing such things (instead, you will get laughed at if you’re rank 70 and get utterly destroyed by a “legit” rank 20/30)

I really really can’t fathom how people think this would be a good idea. Let’s take the most popular format..ie draws the most players, that is the friendliest to new players and remove the rewards.

I’m not 100% sure on how that’ll turn out, but I can wager on a guess that’ll we’d see a decline in pvp population. When we have a meager population as is and reduce it further, we are doing something wrong imo, considering one of the utter most necessities of pvp is players.

On Second thought, I think that for being bored to tears
They should be rewarded with their pixels.

Just like pveers.

It’s hard work farming glory like that.

Just lol

Looked like your average hot join match.

When the only incentive to play pvp is to get new armor via every 10 ranks, it’s no surprise people are doing this…

Thank god I stopped caring for rank once I hit 50 a long while ago.

Simply change requirements for acquiring next rank, and make it so that a match must complete to 500 points for any rank/glory accumulated to be applied to your account. I don’t particularly enjoy TPvP with the state of things and would enjoy being rewarded for just playing how I like.

u see guys? this game has no good rewards
and the rank curve is utterly crazy and points for the curve are awarded not for wining, just for playing

Darnis.4056:

i’d rather care much more about the rankpoints gained, since you can’t really do anything with glory and rank should be somewhat of an indicator to skill. (but i think we are speaking of the same)
rankpoints should have never been in hotjoin format and as addition rankpoints gained in ranked matches need to be increased.

those are small changes which wouldn’t take too much time or effort from the dev’s and most unlikely affect other game modes. (i’m sure it is possible to turn off rankpoints by changing a value from 1 to 0 or something similar and changing a fixed number for solo and team arena cannot be that hard – and don’t tell me these will affect wvw)
suggested since the very beginning though…

harrywinky….. some helseth commentary comes to mind…..

LOL.

?Que ridiculo?

Who cares though? It has been said a million times that Hot Join needs a serious rework to eliminate this kind of behavior. Nothing is being done in the last year, so rank is permanently irrelevant. No story here.

No. We should still get points from hot join. I hate SoloQ with all my heart, because of its bad matchups, syncing and drop outs… At least hot join feels more random: you get together with a random team, it auto balances if you end up with less players, and you see more build diversity because people actually go there to try new stuff, and not just go with meta builds. SoloQ is a Hot Join gone wrong.

Sure there are some stupid ways to exploit it, but the same can be said for SoloQ (syncing??). The exploits should be fixed, and not remove an entire game mode’s appeal.
