Guild Wars 2

Ok I get it. You don’t care about pve and hence instead of actual content like dungeons we get open world casualism and npc drama.
I understand you don’t care about wvw because siege disablers lol, perplexity d/p thieves and other amazing things like people who waste supply to troll etc.

I thought you cared about pvp though. Esports and all that. But:
1)Maps. Skyhammer?? Spirit watch?? Courtyard?? Those belong in soloq also known as yoloq for obvious reasons. They are horribly unbalanced and broken hence it was a smart thing to keep them away from the real pvp that is supposed to be teamq. Well not anymore. Courtyard is the worst offender obviously since you rolfstomp the enemy team. They can’t even afk because dishonor so basically they have to stay there for 15min and die over and over. Not frustrating at all!

2)No more doing anything else while you wait for your queue to pop. No more 1vs1 on private servers or hotjoin, no more map completion or whatever else. Just staying in the mists and map chat. Amazing! Thank god with bank you can cosplay a bit at least.

3)Profession specific matchmaking. Another great feature. Because there is no class synergy at all so as long as all the classes are different it’s a balanced matchup. Indeed! That’s not even considering that a profession has multiple builds which function very differently.

4)Premades vs soloers. Your algorithm doesn’t work. It still matches people badly. Which works very well with the previous point and you go against a real organized comp with your random group of 1 engi(turret) 1 war(axebow) 1 necro(zerker axe) 1 ranger(pewpew longbow). Enjoy getting thrashed.

5)No reroll. In the above scenario, previously you could just fine-tune your comp a bit to stand a fighting chance. Well not anymore. I understand you don’t want people to abuse the reroll and also for profession specific ranking/mmr/elo/whataever. At least allow people to reroll as long as it doesn’t result in 2 of the same profession.

*)Bonus point. You did a lot of these things to prevent 4vs5. They still happen. What’s worse? Some occur because of the major lag issues experienced by people who also happen to have perfect ping everywhere else. So it’s your fault yet you dishonor people for it.

Welp I guess you might as well add a scarlet invasion halfway through a pvp match at this point.
Small idea! Keep all this bullkitten in unraked arenas where people go to just have fun and get ranked arena properly balanced.

1) These maps are only available off-season in ranked arena. Which is now. They will otherwise be withdrawn.

2)What do you do when you queue in other games? CS:GO, Dota, Smite etc? You can’t play with bots meanwhile either. Just Alt+Tab and do something else, you’ll get a notification when it’s ready.
