Sad thing is that Anet do not call the shots, NcSoft do.

It’s the future, can we get an update on this please ANet? Just something, so we know that you guys still have a WvW Team, or if Mr. Devon Carver is still working for ANet?
1. Yes, he still works there, and is apparently the head of the WvW team.
Devon CarverI’ve been in the Video Games Industry for a little over 6 years now. I started as a QA analyst working on games for the PC, Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3. For the past 3 1/2 years I’ve been a designer at ArenaNet working on Guild Wars 2. I am currently the head of the World vs. World team and am responsible for driving the direction of that game type.
2. Whether the WvW team is doing anything or not is impossible to say, because they never post here and never talk about it in any of their livecasts. Many threads like the one here are deleted shortly after they’re made. This leaves many of us with little hope that there is actually any active progress being made on WvW.
and if you say something that judge or criticise the way that he do things or try to point something to them they just lock/delete the threat
but if you say something good and defend them the leave the threat up
why?
cose they only like to reed good stufs…maybe they bilieve they do perfect job
but in the end of the day the players desides that…
im wonder what the players bilieve

Here we go,Anet lawyer arrive.
And every time someone asks the given question, there’s someone trying to justify Arena Net.
And it’s pretty much always that one guy.
Every time ANet says anything about “the future”, people take is as guaranteed promises that cannot, will not and could not be broken under any condition. Once those views on the future turn out to be untrue or not as beautiful as ANet envisioned, people will hate ANet for it. People will call them liars. And then… people will start asking for more.

And how can you tell they simply don’t want to tell us about anything cause of this, or simply ignoring the WvW community? Can you please verify it ?

Don’t argue with idiots, they pull you down their level and own you with experience.

The problem isn’t that they haven’t delivered on nearly any of these things, its that there has been little if any communication about their progress. We don’t even know if we should still expect these things.
The anger that results in the community, particularly here in the WvW community, stems from a simple lack of communication. If I was told “Look we planned X,Y and Z but have had technical difficulties implementing them. We are still planning to have it in the game however.” Then I would be understanding and simply wait. Likewise if they told us “Look due to technical/balancing issues, we decided that unfortunately we have to scrap X,Y and Z plans, however we will now focus on A,B and C plans instead, so stay hopeful of new content.” I would again understand.
The biggest lie told by Anet’s apologists is that if they tell us information we’ll get angry if they change plans and have a tantrum. That’s insulting to all of us who want the game to prosper and are capable of understanding the simple fact that things are always developing. Not telling us anything is simply lazy and offensive to those who put their time and effort into fostering a community in this game, likewise poor treatment of their customers.
Instead give us regular updates on the state of development of WvW or anything for that matter so we can look forward to new content and encourage others with that news also. They have not done that in regards to many of these things, and if they have, they are not readily accessible to me or many others.
Don’t waste your time asking about wvw progress and updates.
They’ll never exist, they’ll never happen. E V E R
You’ll get about 15-20 achieves to run through in about 1-4 months and then nothing, ever, zilch, nadda, zip.

Except, that’s not what’s been happening at all lately. People aren’t asking for more than what was promised, or what was said to be worked on, lately (last couple of months) people have simply just been asking for anything. It has been deathly quiet in this subforum, and you can’t blame people for wondering why, and when each new patch hits and there are so many PvE changes, why we’re left with, and I’m being serious here, the biggest (and one of only 2, stealth map glitch fixes aside) WvW change since the April feature pack:
- Fixed an issue in which Build Master II caused the incorrect amount of supply to be spent when building burning oil, cannons, and mortars.
Yeah.
Look, when Season 2 ended there was a stream on the very same day talking about “how the season was”, they mentioned that there will be another CDI the following week on some topic I cant remember.
The fact that they didnt even bother to open the CDI Topic on this forum should be enough hints how many people actually work on WvW.
The old CDI threads didnt bring any change to WvW anyways. So basicly nothing of value was lost. Looks like Anet staff had the same opinion.
The only solution is to not play WvW at all. I spent 4 hours upgrading my borderlands today only to have it flipped in 30 minutes.
4 hours of wasted time. WvW is a waste of time, it’s nothing but flipping undefended objectives 80% of the time.
NCSoft are the root of the problem, nothing will ever get sorted while these inconstant people jiggle the puppet strings

Not sure why people are so eager to put Anet’s failures on NCSoft. Is it out of loyalty to GW1? .. NCSoft already owned Anet when GW1 came out.

Probably because NCSoft is the “boss”. They decide how much money ArenaNet gets to work with and how much time they get to spend on stuff before release and so on. And as such, it makes sense for people to complain about NCSofts involvement.
Which is rather silly, seeing as the very same people seems to talk about how awesome GW1 was, and yet GW1 would never even exist without NCSoft.

They don’t want to say anything until they are able to make the 100% awesome mega perfect patch that solves world hunger and global warming.
WvW players don’t pay gems outside of transferring during seasons anyway, so you guys should have no complaints waiting till then!

“What about World Bosses, Guilds, and WvW?
Later this week, we’ll be discussing how our transition to the megaserver system will affect the timing of world bosses and some changes we’re making to support this. We’ll also be discussing the long-term plan for guilds and WvW in relation to our megaserver system, so check back each day this week for more information!"
“The Megaserver System and the Future of WvW
Though we are moving to our new megaserver model in PvE, it’s extremely important to us that we maintain the level of identity and competition in WvW that we’ve established since the release of Guild Wars 2. The entire game mode is based on battles between different players aligned to the named worlds, and as such we have no plans to remove this concept from WvW.
We’ll go into the very specific details about these changes as we approach the launch of this system game-wide, but we wanted to get a head start on messaging this since these are natural questions the addition of our megaserver system raises."
Don’t worry guys. They plan on telling us what they plan before they roll out mega-servers.

This is not true…
As for others saying they will never answer, I do not care if they can deliver on the things in that blog post. I just want to know if there is still a WvW Team. From all the silence we have had, I am holding my hopes for some nice updates with the next balance patch in September. I also believe they are trying to tie Living Story Season 2 into WvW somehow. Some of the stuff in EoTM was supposed to be a test there for future WvW updates. I am looking forward to new things and more anti-zerg mechanics as I have been playing Outnumbered for past 3 weeks.
Long story short, just curious if WvW is being worked on.
It’s like Back to the Future: they have flying cars, air conditioned jackets, hoverboards and kitten, but none of it came true.
Wow over a year has already passed…. At this rate all these features can be considered projects that were canceled.

well you ever calculate how much that transfer costs?
they hve transfers to high tier servers from low during the tournaments and back transfer to low tier after tourny ends
also many gvg guilds change servers to find fights
that is alot of gems and wvwvw players dont farm alot to get the gold for transfer
so real monay-gems-transfer
this is the main reason for no organize gvg tournaments etc..the gems
if anet have make tournamebts with guilds or something simillar then they gona lose alot of the profit that they get from transfers
anet/ncsoft they make this game for a reason …to get monay..is normal
why else some company will get on the game market if not to get profit..i dint se them to promote this game to be free
the only we ask is if the wvwvw team is alive or any wvwvw team is exist and if any project about the wvwvw

Good job.
They’re already not telling us anything; we’re just simply pointing it out. If it’s truly their mindset to not respond because we call them out for being non-responsive, then the problem lies with them. Sitting here silently waiting for them to finally come around to communicating with us isn’t going to make them more eager to post.
If you want to sit quietly in a corner crossing your fingers that someday the WvW forum will finally get some attention, that’s completely your prerogative. Just as it’s equally our right to voice our opinion on a forum; you know, that thing that people use to communicate with each other.
And it’s pretty much always that one guy.
He stated once he’s a developer, I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s an ANet one on his personal account.
