Guild Wars 2

Ok, we all know these are bad times. We know that WvW programmers are understaffed and under payed…

So why not make a donation to wvw programmers so to help them to develop new maps? We could pay in gems….

Donate gems for a new wvw map!

New maps first.
Fix a lot of other things what are causing problems with the game first.
Regular communication with the WvW community

Then, I might consider buying gems.

None of us are going to buy gems unless we PvE, or want the skins. Anet doesnt deserve our money, WvW hasnt received the TLC it needs, and the mods are high on power.

They have pushed us away, why should we pay them for not doing their job?!

lol

/15charactersorsomething

lol..why to do that?
cose we have develops that realy answer to any question?
cose we have develops that work on the wvwvw?
cose we have develops that fixing bugs etc on the game??bugs that exist over 1 year?
cose we have develops that hear the players on any idea about wvwvwv?

and even if we do that those monay will go to pve and spvp team cose the wvwvw is a taboo for anet…it dosent exist

Why paying for a service you will never recieve, like throwing bucks in the bin.

Gems aren’t directly equal to money for Anet. Gem sales go to NCSoft first. Given that Anet has stopped being community friendly and has rather just taken a back seat with their public face, there’s really no reason to support them. The odds that your money is being put to good use is worse than a precursor drop.

Use the gems for your own character as anet do not care for wvw anymore.

They deliver some improvements worth paying for, then I’ll consider it; but not before.

Given their history to date where WvW is concerned, spending gems/money on GW2 in the hope they’ll improve WvW after the fact is like sending a Nigerian “Prince” your bank account number in the hope you’ll get 10% of his “millions of dollars” that he’ll transfer to you for safekeeping.

i just don’t see how adding a new wvw map, fixes the problems in wvw, I mean sure it gets you excited to see an update for the game mode, but then your back to same old drama. I was excited when eotm came out, tried it and instantly thought this is not game mode to enjoy even for casuals.

What WvW developers?

Honestly I think if they simply worked on some reskins of the bls and eb, rather than completely new maps, it could accomplish the near same result while still giving them room to work on the inner-working problems and adding more to the gameplay.

I would pay for a WvW focused expansion, with most of those things asked/proposed on this forum included – but not another EoTM or similar…

They should make a survey about this, included on launcher or using the in-game mail system, and ask us, if we would pay for such an expansion, and if yes, how much.

But… it’s a bit too late already for all this. Living Story is the only part of the game they see it as the future of GW2. The rest is just “bonus” there, and will stay mostly as it is, for a long time.

It doesnt.

What it does do is create new maps to play on.
New maps to explore.
New maps to fight on.
New maps to devise new tactics on
New maps to bring back a few players
New maps to keep us interested in the game for a bit longer

EOTM was made for PvE players to K-Train. A new map will refresh WvW, even if it is for a few months or a year.

But I bet you if they did release a new map for WvW, their graphs will spike a lot higher and for a much greater duration than they currently get with the LS episodes.
And if they do that they’ll realise WvW needs more variety, and we’d soon get a whole host of new maps and a rotation system in place in no time!

We just need that one new BL map to replace the current one!

This. PvP always has good dev work time to player play time ratio. Zero dev attention for two years and WvW is still going (though only barely at this point) .. this would certainly not be possible with PvE.

One new BL and EB map every 6 months could probably take WvW off life support and keep it going indefinitely (where the new maps are placed in rotation with old ones, perhaps using RNG — Anet’s gotta have their RNG!).

Alas, this will not happen.

Why not just combine all the maps into one large map?

Lag.

Cause the game architecture can’t handle it.

I’ll sign this saying im a WvW play by 90% of my playtime in GW2, the other 10% is breezing through the LS content 3 weeks after it’s released. Thing there is… if I wanted pve I’d play another game. GW2’s World vs World is the first time I ever experienced RvR pvp content and I don’t want to play any other type of MMO anymore unless it has RvR.

To me pve is boring. sPvP lacks larger group content. WvW lets my entire guild play together. World bosses don’t last long enough and it’s not just my guild. WvW we can play for 6 hours all togehter. Guild challenges almost brought an endgame comparable to that. If anet removed WvW they would have to replace it with instanced raids or they would lose me to other games and they would have to add larger scale sPvP content (10v10, 20v20, 40v40, etc). TBH the boat I’m in here is probably why they haven’t just shut off WvW entirely.

Tbh if they put in a REAL GvG mode they can do what ever with the maps in WvW

Lag.

i dint see any lag on EOTM…is biger than borders and if you get on the 1 map that open then you have biger numbe of players than EB..but you dont have lag

and the excuse that is hard to make new maps well..they did EOTM….unlesEOTM was allready here and they say lies
