We all got the news recently that the team that has been working on the new legendaries has been moved to the xpac2 team and all further work on the new legendaries has been scrapped. A lot of people are upset about this not necessarily because they really wanted these legendaries but, because promised content and game features were being canceled.
Well we were also told that WvW development and overhaul was going to be the main focus after HoT released. 5 months later and we are still holding out hope that the April update is going to have some solutions to the problems we have voiced time and time again. But now we are hearing about a supposed Xpac2, which brings me to ask. Has WvW development been scrapped as well in order to focus on another xpac?
If so just pull the band-aid off so we can all move on to other interests.
I think “Scrapped” might be too harsh term, I think “Put on Hold” is more likely the case.
Wouldn’t be surprised.

I think Anet realizes that they are at a turning point in WvW. It has been put off for so long that they must make an effort now or, effectively, scrap it. It seems like they’ve chosen to put the effort in.
That’s not to say WvW won’t be put on hold again…just that we’re due for some updates before that happens, at least.
Of course it’s been scrapped. We all know Mike O’Brien’s disdain for WvW. You think he would put more resources in WvW when PvE and PvP are in massive crisis mode?
The carrot on the end of their stick is ROTTEN!!! Don’t take it, lol.
Tell me how it hasn’t already been scrapped?
Who cares about WvW?!
We got a bubble glider!
kittenING BUBBLES!

What’s given you the impression that they’re choosing to put in the effort? Not trying to be a smartkitten, honest question.

I heard big changes are coming “soon”
You act like that’s something they’ve told us before…

You can’t move on to other interest until they pull the band-aid off?
You are always free to pursue other interests. You are not a GW2 hostage.
I find people threatening to leave unless Anet does x,y, or z to be quite comical. A better threat would be to stay and whine on the forums all day. Although that hasn’t been all that effective from what people are saying about anets tendency to ignore the community.

Gotta agree with you 100% there, as grand and involved as it is, this is a game, if you are not having fun playing it, it’s time to find a game you will have fun playing, or at least start looking at the other options.
I already have my eye on a few other games out there, Eternal Crusade is among them, they make the claims for very “visceral combat”, and I want to see becomes of that.

Who is to say that he’s not currently exercising his options while being concerned about the direction of WvWvW? One can do both you know. Don’t be that guy. :/
right now I don’t trust anything Anets says. WvW might also be “indefinitely stopped” and they are just waiting for the right time to tell us.

It’s a fledgling attempt at optimism, I guess. There’s been a bit of communication and, while no information has been released, I know that they either have to come through with effort or I’m out. So, until such a time as I leave, I want to believe that they’re not just stringing me on.
That means that I need info in April and I need it asap. Also, what changes do drop must demonstrate that they have WvW’s best interests in mind. They don’t have to get it right on the first try so long as the second try isn’t 3 years in the making.
If I’m wrong about everything and they do something silly, I have no qualms with eating my words and just walking away.
dude wvw was the first.
its good that people are kittened about legendaries. us wvw players have felt that way for a long time now. we gotta stick together.

Until WvW gets sacrificed again because of PvE grinders that could care less about WvW.

at this point its better to have a bunch of pvers in wvw cuz that will actually boost the pop from 0.
