Could be worse, I’ve logged in & found that my server was wiped from all of the maps, including our own BL. On the other hand; thanks ET & IoJ for the laugh of leaving AR one sentry on EB & our own BL and taking everything else.
Maguuma is recruiting translators for Pashto, Greek, German, Arabic, Japanese, Korean, Hindi, Bengali, Mandarin, Telungu, Olia, Swahili, Amharic, Fulani, Russian, Somali, and Urdu. A summit will be held with video gamers across the world in effort to protect Maguuma’s ppt
People have responsibilities like a job, college, or school and go to bed around 10-12. Pandering to less than 1% of the population to grieve a majority of WvW players is nonsensical.
Scoring should be nerfed at off-hours relating to North American time as these are North American servers with at least 90% of the players being North American. Server leaders shouldnt be rolling over each other throwing gold at Asian players to makeup 33% of their scoring.
Exactly. WvW is a team sport, and seeking out teammates who can play while you cannot makes it fun. What about normal people who have other commitments during the non-peak hours? What about normal people who work late shift? Do they not matter?
This might sound weird, but not everyone lives the same lifestyle where being on immediately after reset works.
I’ve also yet to see a prize from the matches where my server “wins.”
They makeup less than 1% of the population, and are grieving the other 99%. No, they really should not be considered disproportionately
Exactly. WvW is a team sport, and seeking out teammates who can play while you cannot makes it fun.
See the example of NATO. They don’t reach as many countries as server leaders are expected to and have a higher population and more connections to do so. Even if this ball-fondling of Asian players was somehow realistic, them counting way more than NA players is ridiculous
It’s far more than 1%, where are you getting your numbers? I’ve seen 10-25 person groups when I’ve played off-hours vs. 50-100 on-hours. That’s 10-50%. You’re off by an order of magnitude fella.
This is a PVP gamemode but we all know PVD is what wins the match up. These FA boys been getting wrecked but they can always take their frustrations out on some doors when maguuma sleeps.

Seeing as half of the current linked servers have almost no players during this time, bullkitten
So you’re saying that you’re not on at these hours so it’s unfair people playing during them get any sort of credit, but then claim to know how active it is during these hours?
I’ve woken up in the middle of the night and been unable to sleep, so I’ve gotten on wvw. There are active fights going on, and this was before the server linking! It’s not giant blob on giant blob, but it’s still often a 10 on 10 or 20 on 20 over control of a tower or keep.
This post is the reason for most things wrong with the world, people unable to put themselves in others’ shoes. Its all about ‘me’.
Stick to singleplayer rpgs if you cant handle the game not turning off when its time for you to go to bed.
If I was a player in China I’d be laughing every day PvDooring 350+ ppt with no contest. Would upset the Americans who worked a lot to take/defend towers and keeps. Afterwards getting PM’d by almost every server leader with over 200g offers to come to their server. WvWvW as a Chinese player would be great

You should be laughing then because once you wake up and get on you can reflip all your paper ;-)
Ah yes, wiping away the “gains” Mag made from PvDooring while others were busy during their daytime with work and school.
I too am looking forward to scoring changes.
Please explain which hours FA and SBI don’t have map blobs all over the place.. Would love to know this magical time when Mag “pvd’s”, is it during prime?

Abandon all hopes for true skill based competition in GW2’s version of RvRvR. Everyone in gaming knows that GW2 is %75 or more about Coverage Wars then actual battles between players. And yes less then %20 of a playerbase that not even the main server base have the most influence on the score card. Anet is perfectly fine with this.
Might as well call NA servers “Asia/OCX” servers because that’s who has most of the say on the scores.
But hey GW2 is not the only game with RvRvR now is it? It’s just the only game that suffers by dev team design decision from this problem to this extent.
I maybe a troll with class.
But at least I admit it!

SEA isn’t your problem, EU is. FA has EU, unfortunately for Mag.
Welcome to Coverage Wars 2.
Mag was ticking over 400 during OCX/SEA. Why? For the same reason OP is whining about. Mag had people getting “gains” while FA didn’t bother. Really surprising to see a post whining about PPT from Mag here. Scoring changes hopefully will help.

The main strategy against Mag is to avoid fights, Yaks Bend your keep (http://i.imgur.com/jjgrLWo.jpg), ppt while we’re asleep, and back-cap while we’re engaging another server. Your server and SBI are characteristic of mice poking in-and-out holes and we’re the cat

Welcome to Coverage Wars 2.
Mag was ticking over 400 during early EU into early NA yesterday. Roughly the same occurred on Wednesday. Why? For the same reason OP is whining about.

Careful Chaba, you’re using logic there. However, you did gain me on FA
Honestly, I don’t know why you’re complaining just because your OCX/SEA didn’t play last night. Look how well Maguuma ticked previous nights.
You lose fights (shown by kdr), bunker siege keeps (shown by ss), and have back-ppt’d (end of the spam). The only result of entering this thread is giving attention to your server’s faults and picking up a DR castaway. Nice job

I’m an American in Central Time Zone who, during the work week, primarily plays between 3 AM and 9 AM. That’s the time bloc we call “OCX”.
As the official ambassador of NA in the OCX bloc, I am here to inform you that OCX rejects your spurious and capricious charges of “night capping” and returns to you the charge that you’re all filthy day cappers.

RvR wasn’t much different, most relic captures were early early in the morning. And I’m sure you absolutely loved being aoe mez’d for 1.5 minutes…
Kdr isn’t showing that mag is “winning” fights. From what Jekkies has seen it merely shows that mag is much better at running away, seeing as the only time you push is when you vastly outnumber your opponent… This is gift from Jekkies to you though! [Packet of Salt]
Do I need to take a screenshot of night time in OCX time as well? And highlight NA PPT as “nightcapping”?
Take a screenshot of your primetime. Where almost nobody is online and you can freely take towers/keeps.
Sorry, cata’ing a T3 garrison and PvEing the lord with 3-4 players isn’t what WvWvW is like for NA players. You guys doing that everyday wastes multiple hours put in by a majority of the populace. OCX timezone PPT needs a nerf bat
Down with NA daycapping and how dare EU play when I’m asleep.
Yes how dare NA daycap on their own servers. And people wondered why they only see me online in GW2 once in a blue moon. Playing another MMORPG called ESO where this isn’t even a remote issue, where “seasons” are happening everyday and winning for your faction is the only way to get some of the dankest pvp gear in the game, also not to mention the large sum of gold you get if your alliance wins the 30 day campaign during that cycle. And among other things which I will not mention here.
I done with this thread, carry on with yalls sorry excuse of R v R v R competition.

You’re right, Anet should just kick all the Aussies, Zealanders, Asians etc out.

kitten it you sucked me right back, -.- No there are two real solutions none of which is profitable for ANet.
Solution A = ANet creates Asia/OCX servers for that group of gamers to WvW on, very costly.
Solution B = PPT Scoring during NA prime time on NA servers and EU prime time on EU servers are greatly increased to compensate for servers stacking off peek timezones for the dumbest of the easiest wins.
Both of these solutions are viable actually Solution B works wonders in ESO now. However because ANet’s only way of getting income from WvWers in GW2 is server transfers/stacking, you can expect ANet to never fix this problem till they find other ways to get money out of the WvWers.

Should we implement “weekday” capping solutions as well since most people play during the weekends?

A – Dream on.
B – You make it sound like people intentionally stack to fight a glorious crusade on doors just to win the game of ppt on Friday. There are better champ bag trains in PVE tyvm. Transfers cost money, not any guilds can just transfer all the time to have something to fight / or transfer to the currently winning server.
