Guild Wars 2

I don’t know exactly how many total games I’ve played nor do i know exactly how many of them we’re a MASSIVE waste of time due to unbalanced teams (and by that I only mean the number of players on each team). With that said, it absolutely FEELS like every other game if not more is a crapshoot. I don’t spend more than two to three hours on the game everyday split between PVE and PVP I can get in 5-10 games a day, so maybe this isn’t as noticeable for those who play more, but kitten at least half of my games every day are 4v5’s or full premades. I’ve been trying to get friends into the game but they were completely turned off by the PVP after experiencing this three times in a row. Now I know there’s more to the game and that I’m probably using a selective bias, but I’d like to consider myself a reasonable guy. The pvp matchmaking system is so far from reasonable that I don’t understand how there hasn’t been some effort to fix this. If it were any other game (assuming GW2 pvp was its own game) where, let’s say, 25% of your games you are basically FORCED to lose, it would be completely unacceptable and I’m sure the game would tank if it wasn’t fixed immediately.

As it is now, queuing for pvp at an average or above MMR is quite simply a roll of the dice to decide whether or not you are going play the game for the next 5-10 minutes. Personally I don’t consider one-sided matches to be “playing the game”, granted there are those rare occasions where you can pull off a 4v5, i don’t think that is justification enough to say the system is fine. Sorry for the long rant, this has been bothering me for a very long time. I know I should offer alternatives to keep this constructive but I feel even the most rudimentary change to address this would go a very long way. I love your entire game Anet, so lets get past this hurdle and I can go back to blind devotion for you guys. <3
