Guild Wars 2

Twice out of about 16 matches today I’ve been in a soloQ match where my side started the match with 4v5. Actually in both cases someone else from our side left early, leaving us with 3v5, and we lost badly. Rather than being fun and challenging it was a waste of 5-8 minutes of my life. That is not how games should be.

Could you please add a feature that won’t allow a tpvp (soloQ or teamQ) match to begin unless there are 5 people on each team who have clicked ready during the final 10 second countdown before the gates open? How can that be so hard?

It would be tempting to blame the people who aren’t coming in to make a 5 person team, but disconnects happen. I’d like to see the developers take more responsibility for fixing this issue. Please do something.

Everyone has asked for this, they don’t care bud. :/

They won’t even put a resign button.

yap its a very strange feature that not many game has in 2014

(yes i have no idea about how video games work, also i have no idea how cars work but i like them to have 4 wheels)

16 matches? in 1 day? gw2? you are truly a masochist !

PvE content comes first buddy.

Releasing Escape From Lion’s Arch was far more important than making a functional readycheck button to fix an issue that has plagued GW2 PvP since RELEASE.

If there are five in one team and four in the other then there should be something similar to autobalance where there is an option to volunteer to be kicked out for a modest reward. If no volunteers then a random person is kicked for no reward.

That would the most simple, elegant and easy way to fix this problem. It would do nothing for those who drop out in the middle of the game but for that we have Dishonor.

They can just make it 4v4 to start then the 5th could be a spectator, only his side of course. And if they wanted to sub that player in they could via vote or whatever just as long as it doesn’t create an unfair advantage against the 4 man team. The voted out 5th could either leave to SoloQ, without penalty, again or stay and reap the rewards for it. That way it would reward one person for staying instead of punishing a whole undermanned team.

This is the number 1 most requested feature. ANET listened and instead decided to remove all the glory and rewards from PvP.

This.

I should ignore when someone say ‘Anet is not really care about PvP’ .

But i can’t.
Because of this 4v5 issue alone.
Its completely ruin the game that they tried so hard to build.
Everyone know this so no way dev don’t know.

I prefer waiting 5min longer to exp a good game rather than rush in the unfair match.

It’s easy to fix but they never seem care.
I can’t help but agree with them.
