Guild Wars 2

First of all i really like the idea of SPvP, however i dislike the game mode. As it have it fun parts it have more frustrating elements… Maybe thats just me.

Here are some of the things i dont like about SPvP.
-There’s no progress in the game, you basicly do the same thing untill one the teams won.
-It quickly feels one big blur of uncontrolled chaos (And specialy in non tournament).
-Bad matchmaking in TPvP if any or not enough players playing it.
-Some profession balance issues.
-Downed state feels bad for SPvP, since there´s way to much difference in the skills between the professions.

I would like to see something new, like with “stages” where early game and late game isnt the same. You feel a progress, and where every game isnt the same and you can adjust to turn it around, if things dosnt turn out good for your team. So i dont mean CTF, but maybe you earn “gold” inside each game to buy items, which would make some sort of progress. Gold would be earned by killing enemies and other things arenanet might think off (This is not thought of to be added to the current game mode, but a new game mode).

But really anything but this current game mode i would like to give a shot, since i dont find it funny most of the games. I hope for something new, rather than just making adjustments.

Basically they’ve hinted that they know new game modes would be nice for casuals but conquest is for tournaments and tournaments are the only thing they are concerned about. I assume they are having internal discussions and maybe some mild development of new game modes but realistically I think it’s likely that we will be playing SPVP for 1 whole year before we get a single new game mode.

What a shame, because PvP is really what i like to do at high lvl and as a “end game” status. WvW can be fun, but its not for competition like TPvP.

You dislike conquest? But the reasons you stated aren’t conquest specific. Only the first one is.

I don’t know what you mean with progress in the game. Do you mean like in MOBA’s?

Balancing is being worked on and that is an ongoing thing.
Downed state won’t leave. Try and see the beauty of it. It adds to the strategy part. Again some downed skills can be balanced better.
Matchmaking is coming.
Uncontrolled chaos is 8vs8 specific and in 5vs5 it tends to dissapear the longer you play, the better you know the different animations, etc.

A new game mode might come, but that’ll take a while. Meanwhile they can add new maps with some nice complex secondary objectives.

Are you a moba player? If not then you should be. Having “stages” in a hot-join environment is a disaster. It will just magnify the snowball effect in a major way. Not exactly what you want in gw2 at this moment.

Not for a year or so… They really love conquest =/

+1 for more modes.
I don’t want them to remove conquest because some people seems to like it, and it could even be a mode with some conquest mode in it. Let’s say you got conquest points that gives a team buff for a short duration. And for upgrades there could be certain points on the map which you could upgrade, like you could pay gold that you get from capturing the points and killing other player to buy turrest like outside the forts in www that could be placed on certain points on the map.
But the main objective is to take out the enemy village.
There could even be some npc hiring with gold so you would have to choose where to spend the gold.
Something like that is something i would like to see

man even rift added two new maps (with different play styles) in addition to adding two variable game modes to two existing maps (on top of the 4 maps/game modes they had at release), all prior to their first expansion.

Sadly we just have to wait >.<

What about team deathmatch? That is the most basic, and for many the best, gamemode of all.
