Guild Wars 2

I submitted a support ticket, since I had not hope that I would get a answer on the forums hahaha, so one of the GM told me to come here and ask my questions, well I really hope the devs could take a look and answer them.

Hi, I love this game and the people who are playing it. I’m a fan of this game can’t hide it and I have supported the game with money as much as I could.

Ok so I love WvW more then any game mode in this game. It’s the must fun and clown fiesta game mod u have made for gw2 and u should take care of it MORE! , honestly what are u doing Anet ? There is people who spent time to make/build Community from WvW, people find friends etc… They put time and effort in this game mod like myself and I want u yes u Anet to put more time and effort in WvW. One of the most amazing game mod.

So Questions.

• Q: Do you guys care about WvW? If not why?

• Q: Will there be more WvW tournaments ? If not why? (PvP had 5 season and the 5th one was the best, but could be better. But WvW haven’t had any…. after like 3-4 years I think, correct me if I’m wrong)

• Q: What’s the state of the game in general and PvP/WvW/PvE?

• Q: Have the Anet balance team played WvW vs condi builds as a roamer? Like Burn ele, PERMA stealth trapper thief, burn guard…. and condi warrior. They should try it honestly specially vs perma stealth trapper thief.

• Q: Why do PvP/PvE have easy access to Ascended armor/weapon/Amulet etc… and they both have Legendary Back items. And WvW have nothing of it why?

Sorry if I have bad grammar, since a loot of people are telling me that I have it, but I tried my best :l

100% valid queries, I too would like some input regarding these questions about World vs World, but would like some others answered too;

Triumphant Hero armor, when? (Introduced nearly a year ago as a WvW reward yet still not implemented.)

Skirmish rewards.

Adjustments to reward track points, enabling direct track point increases to objectives that increase warscore (Captures, Dolyak escorts/kills, defense events)

Your second question (Tournaments) was answered long ago. You can use Google to look up the Dev response.

As the response from the CS Team indicates, it’s unlikely you will get an official response in this thread, but…there’s always hope.

Good luck.

The reasoning was something to do with a permanent drop in population most likely due to burnout during the tourneys, which were long. So, not surprising there.
Given world linking which is albeit still not perfect, and Skirmishes, Short but regular tournaments would likely be viable. Could even be ‘Tournament Skirmishes’ 4hrs apart from each other tbh

Customer Support for GW2 is just like any other company – they can fix problems with your account or even undo damage done by bugs but they aren’t the developers and they can’t make changes to the game as a whole, which is what you’re asking for.

Just so you know you probably won’t get someone from Anet actually answering your questions here either, at least not in any detail. But they’re more likely to see it and if your suggestions get a good response from other players (which shows there is demand for this) they might use them. But unless they’re already working on it you’ll have to wait months to see any changes because game development is not a quick process.

Communication is a banned word in their office.

Here’s your answer for #2

Swamurabi.7890:

from a red post in the thread Whens the next WvW tournament?

Tyler Bearce.3427:

Our primary motivation for avoiding running another tournament, is that at the end of every tournament we saw a permanent dip in the number of players playing WvW. Presumably this was due to players burning themselves out during the tournament.

However, we can still run a poll to see if the majority of the community wants another 4 week tournament, even if it might be bad for the long term WvW population numbers. Though even if ‘running another tournament’ won the poll, we’d probably hold off until we get the scoring updates in.

Allow me to answer your first question:

dnik.2570:

• Q: Do you guys care about WvW? If not why?

No.

This should give you the answer for the other questions in regards to WvW.

You should have posted on reddit.

But to your questions…

So Questions.

• Q: Do you guys care about WvW? If not why?

/insert one of Mal’s long winded post
Now the tldr version – No.

dnik.2570:

• Q: Will there be more WvW tournaments ? If not why? (PvP had 5 season and the 5th one was the best, but could be better. But WvW haven’t had any…. after like 3-4 years I think, correct me if I’m wrong)

No.

dnik.2570:

• Q: What’s the state of the game in general and PvP/WvW/PvE?

1. The team is currently working on pve raids, living story, legendaries, and an expansion.
2. Spvp has seasons.
3. Wvw is pve, circle back to 1.

dnik.2570:

• Q: Have the Anet balance team played WvW vs condi builds as a roamer? Like Burn ele, PERMA stealth trapper thief, burn guard…. and condi warrior. They should try it honestly specially vs perma stealth trapper thief.

Yes one of the developers plays a ghost thief (not really), and they felt it was too weak (not really), hence the buff to their two condition damaging skills (really?). Conditions working as intended, blast light fields.

dnik.2570:

• Q: Why do PvP/PvE have easy access to Ascended armor/weapon/Amulet etc… and they both have Legendary Back items. And WvW have nothing of it why?

Wvw is pve, hance wvw already has easy access to those items, Mo said wvw players loves them some pve.

Hate to break it to you, but you wouldn’t get an honest reply for any of that from anet.
