missed anything ?
No come back in december…
It depends on what kind of award you’re looking for. If you want more powerful gear for winning, you’re straight out of luck.
The community is pretty pessimistic now as always, but there have been a lot of really good changes recently. For example, tournaments were reworked and they are now just ranked matches, split between solo queue (random teams) and team queue (premades). That alone was a giant leap forward.
There are also leaderboards for each mode (solo and team). The leaderboards had some issues for a few months after being released, but a full reset is scheduled for two weeks from now, so a completely new ladder/season/whatever you want to call it is starting.
WvW now actually does make your character more powerful for playing it, which was maybe not the best decision, heheh. People still zerg but there are new areas designed for small roaming groups and a new map on its way. IMO, still not a great place to find even, challenging fights, but to each his own.
tl;dr you play for winning in PvP and are rewarded by advancing up the leaderboard.
And as i remember, things you get in pve can be used in WvsW ?

Yes. In fact, it’s rather difficult to do WvW without leveling/gearing up in PvE first.
I heard they’re putting in rewards in december o_o
There was a datamining thing earlier, and they’ve been dropping these hints like “Oh man hold on to your chests guys, Take advantage of the double drop rate”

Well to be fair no dev has ever said to “hold on to your chests.” They did say to take advantage of the double drop rate and they have confirmed a significant overhaul of the rewards system, but no one knows if it will be profitable to have a lot of unopened chests on hand when it drops.
At the moment there were some changes to classes and some new maps (but same old conquest). Leaderboards and MMR are still an issue and there are no new rewards.
On the plus side, Anet finally started a thread to talk about implementing new game modes (TDM, CTF and maybe a moba style map), but those talks started about a couple of weeks ago so don’t expect anything the next few months either. They also mentioned rewards, but with the way the game is, it’s not going to be anything game changing.
