Guild Wars 2

Well, I’ve been playing ranked matches lately non stop and what bothers me the most is that sometimes I do my best but my team just sucks and they don’t try hard enough. It’s like I tried harder than the others but we all end up with the same thing. Just not fair.

What if the Top 1 player on the losing team got the same reward as the winning team AND the match didnt count as a loss? People wouldnt give up on the first 100points difference, they would try harder and even if their team is doing pretty bad, they can still go for TOP 1 and somewhat help their team to catch up.

Anyway, just a thought I guessed it wouldnt cost to share :P

you can’t know whos the top 1 player, because score doesn’t mean anything, usually a top player in a losing team arent highest scored, some times yes, but mostly no.

Team arena is for the Teams. The rewards relate to team success.

If you are good, you will be noticed and you will notice who else is good in the matches that you play. Add that player to your team and queue together next game; keep adding good people to your team and you will have a 5 man full team eventually. If you all play well together, keep running that same team everyday. You will get better. Don’t forget to add good players to your friendlist.

In a few days, if you stick to the plan I just laid out above, you will not need to make a post like your OP ever again but, your opponents will do so.

No, this would only encourage people to farm it with a friend or zerg points in hotjoin.

Yeah, I know score isnt accurate on saying who’s done better but it would be an incentive for people to do things.

No semi afkers players on points will do better on score than someone really trying to win the game though.

Terrible idea. Promotes point farming and constant attemps of backcapping. Bunkers usually have the lowest points on the team, but are vital to the teams’ success. Most points DOES NOT mean most contribution.

Incentivizing people to do “things” even wrong things instead of winning? Why?

Man I love point skitten in STPvP. Sitting on an objective that already has someone on it to get those SWEET SWEET 20 pointeroos, so I can jerk it when I have 100 more points than anyone else.

Doing something like that OP, would just turn everyone into a scumbag and you’d see crazy kitten like 5 ppl capping home for the points.

wow this post is dumb

Even more people would leave home – or any point for that matter – to get points elsewhere, which doesn’t promote conquest. That’s why personal score -> rank was removed from hotjoins.

Rank used to depend on personal score 6 months ago and the dev team moved away from it because it was a bad idea, this suggestion is not realistic.

I play a bunker as well and I rarely get the highest personal score but that is not the point.

The point of this thread is not just to get something to benefit one player but sPvP in general and teams who feel like they’re bad from start of the match.
Ranked games have become luck based and you have to pray to get a decent team that knows what to do (and like someone already mentioned, ‘’get a team’’ isn’t the question, if Solo Q exists, then people who aren’t that social or don’t have the time for e-friends should get a bit of love too).

Anyway, I just thought this could be a way to motive teams to keep on fighting other than sit afk and bash other people lol. I know it wasn’t the best idea but this whole thing has been ruining my game experience ._.

Thanks for the ones who politely showed their opinions!

Modifie it a little , into :
You get rewards based on your perfomance (as you said) – cap at 65% bonus
But winning the game offer the 100% bonus

There will be ppl that will keep fighting even if they loose , (such a beautiful anti-afk system was wasted by the community …)
and the team with the proper rotations + bunkers + communication , will get more rewards and Leaderboard rankings

Hello frands! Vee Wee here #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Score means nothing my frands! All this suggestion will do is promote bad play! We’ll see things like multiple people capping points to get a higher score for better rewards! That just won’t do! If you want rewards, then try your hardest to win!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Bud if there is a reward for rank 1 player I’d be living next to Hugh Hefner right about now.
