Guild Wars 2

And now we have to put up with this for entire week!? I wish ANet would TEST these ideas in EotM first. Or in some other area of the game nobody cares about.

Has this already started on EU servers? I’d be curious as to how its going.

Agree, this event is terrible. Guess its a week of PVE or PVP.

At least they did this on flippity friday… but yeah its awfully broken .

Actually one of the most stupid idea i saw since that patch on Asheron’s call where they shuffled all mobs across the maps/world … can someone do a smart thing for that game and fire the guy who get that idea ?

Anet couldn’t even wait for the current match to end.

Guess I’ll find something else to do for the next week.

Thanks Anet.

For years we have called for less golems, they brought us more….
We cried for new maps with the original essence of the current ones. We get EOTM 2.0…..
We asked for less pve in wvw maps. We get more, so much more….

This event is a sham and I’d much rather have seen a week without golems, or catas, or trebs, or my favourite without AC’s!!!!

Fun event. It’s more fun and harder to play golem than warrior.

What the actual kitten?! You couldn’t wait until the match was over to start this bullkitten?!
We’ve got about a 500 point difference in PPT in T5 right now, this match was going to come down to the last minute and now it will be decided by who has the most gold…..
kitten you anet

The right question is which drug did they use in their office? it seems a really good one.

Well I am glad somebody is having fun. Speaking as you who scouts and roams this is not my cup of tea. I hope my side at least has a T6 node or 2 so I can make an appearance.

this is just aweful

It is awful, can’t play unless as a golem as no point, just get steamrolled, no point in upgrading anything, so boring.

Turn it off, please.

Why is it awful. What’s happening? Is everyone in Golems? Is there a limit to the number of Golems on a map?

Yes, everyone is golems, no idea if there is a limit, but if you aren’t a golem there is no point in attacking..they should have at least not made them stronger.

I don’t get it, you think it fair to not do it for the week? I mean what if there are players who can’t do this event on the weekend, they are only on Tuesday, they should have the right.
A week for a fun event is more then fair to give most play a fair shot.

This has to be the most inane thing Anet have ever come up with ,wont be WvWing for a week such idiocy they hiring 12year olds as developers these days its as bad as pvding a door with a zerg . Another reason to hold off pre-purchasing Heart of Thorns. Read the forums Anet and stop this madness (as if)

But remember ANET paid attention to every post about the LAG in WVW so they thought they would make it better by having 200 golems on a map at the same time.

This was clearly designed to remove extra siege from the market, or they are trying something for the new boardland who knows when it comes to Anet,

I wonder what will happen when someone drops a Siege Disable trap on that enemy zerg now.

Oh well just shows that Anet does not play WvW like the rest of us.

Come soon, ARROW CART WEEKS, Free AC’s for ALL.

Ok I Did It.2854:

Come soon, ARROW CART WEEKS, Free AC’s for ALL.

Nuh-huh .. next up, AC helmets. Permanent and portable ACs for all!

What’s sad is I really like siege, I like playing the chess game with it, but I’m not digging this — I will probably sit the week out.

Yup, already logged off to watch some tv!

Slow hand clap
Utterly, utterly clueless about what WvWers want Anet.

The most stupid and no sense event in wvw in history of gw2……..

Thank you for destroying wvw……. I hope you turn it off tomorrow…..

Starting today, the most frequently encountered profession while roaming in WvW is NO LONGER MESMER! It is ‘Mesmer Inside of a Golem’. GG

Well they want to test how siege will work after HoT… grab something from your bag and insta built…

Its like, build a car from something u have in your pocket and steam roll the adversary.

IMO the new BL is awesome but Anet will KILL the game mode with other “addons” , that is for sure.

it might lead to a huge cummunity segregation…

few seconds to get every gate down, so forget about defense or upgrading. Unless you also run in a golem zerg, it’s the dumbest event ever.

This is showing to be fun, and a shake up from the norm. Your taking this way to seriously guys, it a game, get out there and \have some fun. I manage to kill a golem and it rider, I think it was already damage, but it was funny getting it to chase me, lol.

Uh whatever. Let those who will not enjoy the event which includes myself make room for those who will.

I do wonder if there will even be queues tonight for reset.

No matter, I got a large Netflix queue to get through. Now have the time.

I wish Anet would release the numbers on the decrease in WvW activity this week.

They started this before reset? Wondered why people were still running through things like EoTM.

Golem idea is just ridiculous, just a movement to make WvW more ‘PVEadable’. For people that actually cares and jsut plays WvW is the worst movement ever, no poitn to upgrade or defend anything, no point for the poeple to log in to WvW.

This could be nice in EOTM where points don’t matter at all, doing this in regular WvW is just a really really bad idea, after 1 hour it is already boring, ppt everywhere, brainless, no fun,

I havent seen so stupid event ever. There is no sense to protect anything, there is no sense to fight without golems, there is no sense to play wvw for this week.

GG anet you did it again. What a boring week is awaiting for all of us.

What they can come up with sometimes to avoid having to work on a better server and PPT system…

TEARS
EVERYWHERE

Naw, they started it up on EU reset time.

I hope they dont take the feedback of people who have played it for all of 10-15 minute too seriously. There will always be people who are resistant to change and refuse to give things even the smallest of chances before going on the attack.

Let’s let the week play out and, if it proves to not be fun, make suggestions on how it could be made so. Saying “it’s horrible” or “it’s pve” (which it definitely isnt unless the golems start controlling themselves) this early isnt really constructive feedback. Its complaining to be complaining.

have you read the threads recently? Because I doubt Anet does and so they are unlikely to see any feedback so it does not matter what people say.

So they should ignore the feedback of players who have been in WvW since launch? Resistant to change? This is permanent, this is a gimmick. We can already tell this will not be fun because it further brings out many of the glaring issues that are already present. It’s not only that game mode is horrible, it’s a big middle finger to long-time players.

Anet is so out of touch with this game is it any surprise they added an event like this?

Just abandon wvw for the coming week

Look all I know is that gw2 devs are totally in touch with their playerbase.

it is boring… no sense to upgrade anything… no sense to take supply … no ability to normal defense …. soon we will have fighting 50 golems vs 50 golems….may be it is funny but 1 or 2 time …. but not for a week

The problem is that they never do anything thinking of wvw playerbase, always thinking on PVE players, the change, even temporal will make some people to stop playing the game for a week, already knwo some that said they will do that and havent played reset so far.

Queues got huge on reset, 2-3x times the ones last week for example, will be karma train week, pvd against structure, take things in 2 mins and continue the rotation, no point to upgrade, no point to defend, just take blob, go somewhere make 30 golems and take it in 1 min.

For people that will tell about scouts and everything, it’s impossible to have 24/7 scouts, even with scouts it will be impossible to defend against that

that week people will leave wvw…

just going to leave this here

Edit: have emailed it to anet but this has been in game for almost 3 years now and not fixed now with the golem buff

is this a kittened april’s fool ? I’m on kittening Anvil Rock we are facing GoM right now and probably will face them after reset…they got 10 times the people we havethey can PUT Oj’s on each keep we own at once imagine that with golem….IDK this event suck and low pop server will just be dead this week and tbh WvW is the only reason I play GW2 thanks for screwing up our fun Anet….my guess is they fired every Dev that worked on GW1

Had Anet had the sense to make ALL siege require 0 supply, it might have worked. After 2 hours of this Bull Kitten it’s enough to make any sane WvW player quit in disgust.

If I wanted EotM style play I would have gone there but a week of this crap is way too much

Yeah, just chaos. Can’t defend anything, only thing to do is join the golem blob and run in a circle around the map to collect karma…. Should have saved this event for aprils fools 2016.

Welcome to the future of wvw…karma train golems flipping towers.

This is a pre cursor of the new bl map where environmental effects and a pve event wipe your doors while you sleep, add in sup siege choke points and let the exodus begin…

I’d say ‘I told you so’ but then again, so did everyone else.

Oh well, wonder how high omega golem price will go…
