Transparency issues obviously have been beaten to death, but it’s still true. Not only that, but it’s obvious what they really care about in this game. I don’t understand how you can have a hardcore pvp game (gw1) and then advertise the sequel to be it’s continued legacy and it’s main feature will be competitive pvp then completely ignore it.

The population can grow again.. but you have to tell us what you’re actually going to do. Yeah, sure, your maps selection is low but that’s the last thing we need. Plenty of games are fun and successful with just a handful of maps, the problem is every map is the same mode. Go on and say how you refuse to have a deathmatch style but you also said you were refusing to have a stealth dependent class in this game as well and we all know what happened there.

Yeah sure there is wvw, but we need a large scale push and pull style map available to pvpers. We need CtF, not pseudo CtF. We need small team deathmatch for quick entry. We need to CHOOSE what we play instead of hotjoin because if you don’t play 8v8 (on a map made for 5v5 wtf?) games are always filtering in and out due to map changing and not being able to play on the same team as your friend(s).

Not every game should be WoW, I know, but how many of you can seriously get 4 other people with vent and decent comp to play at any regularity? sometimes you just want to hop on and play and it still mean something. Sometimes you want to just zerg (in an appropriately sized map).

Whatever, it’s all been beaten to death. only reason I typed that is so the post wont get insta-deleted so I can post this picture.

note that the only two posts in the spvp forum are “yes communication is key, we are pretty good at that” lol and “yeah we might do something with the combat log one day”

I think most if not all thier resources are on player retention now. PVE is not only larger but also more profitable. The gem store is thier golden goose and pvpers don’t bring in any money.

I think the e-sport thing is completely dead.

So where is my refund? Not that it’s a big deal, but that’s false advertisement. They could of easily made money from hosting tournaments, having available cash shop offer spvp only skins(but still hold rank requirements) & renting custom arenas but keep them on the server public or private.

I’d even be fine paying a monthly fee for a good game, not 15$, but maybe somewhere between 5-10 for fast updates and hotfixes

i believe that Anet is fully to blame for this though because they don’t target or market for pvp players that much to begin with

they could come up with tons of things to sell in the cash shop for mist players

like templets from guild wars one that are tied to your pvp locker

And before says my build doesn’t work, when Ele’s get nerfed it will be -Schwahrheit

Lack of transparacy, lack of proper updates, and admitted allergy to hotfixes. People remember this, and even if players come back they need to be able to keep them. If they keep on letting bugs stay too long until they are fixed, if they keep on not giving us any heads up in their plans and if they keep on doing things too slow players will leave again. Their foundation is really lacking, and from what I see that is nothing they are planning to fix. They dont want to hotfix things, so bugs will keep staying in game for longer than they should have if they happen. Noone complains about too many hotfixes if they get a proper working game as result, but people will complain about everlasting bugs that breaks the game

that is the most infuriating thing about aNet.

If you lack transparency it’s not even that big of a deal when your compatitors ( aside few ones) are also not that good.

But when you can be compared with your own team, simply being it a different division, then we have a problem.

We’re not idiots, and we are tired of this behaviour, even the most patient ones are really getting tired of it.

JUST STOP.
