Really enjoying the SPVP at the moment; the fact I can manipulate my spec whenever I want to is fantastic; all the options to customize my gear is great too. It’s refreshing to be able to pick up a MMO and play competitively without investing a stupid amount of time.

But, yes there’s a but.

If there was one thing that really really annoys me is the constant reminders.

“Instructions” – Yes! I know how to play the map! Please provide a box to check to prevent it reminding me once I’ve read it once. I don’t need to be reminded of this every map change/death.

“Team balance” Same as above, allow an option to stop being asked. Perhaps when you select “I’ll take my chances” it will actually stop asking you, as we all know it’s going to swap someone regardless.

“Score Screen” This one takes the cake for the most irritating. You’re in the middle of a battle and this pops up, yes the game has technically finished but no friends, it hasn’t stopped. Simply stop the game at this point or allow me to PERMANENTLY prevent this obstruction from desecrating my screen in future! If I need to know the score, thanks to my friends at Sesame Street, the letter B isn’t difficult to locate.

I’ve vented my frustration, the ball is now in your hands so please do something about this

I agree. The most OP thing in this game to me at the moment are the pop-up screens and the fact that, considering it’s my 700th match, I still have to view instructions, that still randomly pop-up in between some deaths.

Nice how ANet with all of their big plans forgot about basic functionality. Why there is no checkbox to stop the pop-ups is beyond me, and I find it irritating as well.

I never get pop ups on directions on how to do a map, ever. Must be checkboxed in your setup page??

Also, the scoreboard is gone with the B button, not hard to get rid of when you are mashing keys anyway.

I usually ignore the auto balance popup because your answer does not seem to be taken into account anyway.

Agree. Get rid of the freaking instructions. Get rid of the skills that just killed me – hello combat log for those that desperately want to know.

Get some DECENT stats at the end of the game. Yes I want to know how many kills i got and how much damage i did, and how much damage i took and how many deaths i had. If Rift can do it …..

AND build some different maps. Are 3 point conquest maps all you guys could think of after 5 years in development? How about some larger team based maps so that non 1v1 classes like necro can have some freaking fun.

Yeah … popups … MY big beef with them is how most if not all popups disable your chat … so that if you’re TYPING to someone … and then something such as team roster pops up, apparently this is more important than anything you are saying to anyone because you have no choice in the matter …

Your chat gets disabled and then …

WINDOWS … WINDOWS EVERYWHERE. Hero Menu, Backpack, WvWvW Scorescreen, Guild Tab, Trading Post … T____T … I just … wanted to talk to a friend …

Can’t say I’m a fan of this … it’s possibly the most annoying “feature” the game has at the moment.

U know if you uncheck the voice options, you can turn off the announcer voice

and hide the chat box completely as well

Anet should totally get their PvP team to work exclusively on this matter. It is of the utmost importance that this issue is dealt with…

What’s next? Complaint about how walking from the vendors to the training dummies is too long?
Anet got a mountain of stuff to take care of already that are a bilion times more important things then a popup that doesn’t hide anything in your screen.
After all… mostly everyone played World of Add ons where having a pixel of actual gameplay made you a noob. How can you complain about not being able to see a very small portion of the screen on the far left side? Are you playing with a 6 inches screen or what?
