Good start from Seafarer, but we play the long game ;-)

Riverside, we meet again! As a staunch Seafarer’s Rester defender, I’m looking forward to trouncing you once again. Our server is getting stronger and stronger with every week that goes pass; I’m proud to be a part of it.

Welcome to Far Shiverpeaks, believe this is the first time we have played against each other. Play nicely!

Score as of 8:50am GMT, Saturday morning after reset:

SFR – 13k
Riv – 7k
Far – 3k

Good luck everyone, have fun!

our entire server is doing the new dungeon.. FSP is becoming pve i guess, i dont expect to see much competiton from us.

The first time since one week matches began, we played against each other once before during the 24 hour match ups. Good luck everyone.

FSP has always been strong in PvE, even tho most of us haven’t accepted it.

My own guild is a casual PvX guild, even if we have a very strong presence in WvW as well.

It did NOT help that the reset timer was 1-2 hrs late from what it was supposed to be. I think some of us had time to head to bed (even if it wasn’t me, but I know our team of 30 lost about 15 before the reset hit).

However, it will be intersting to match up against people that have recently left our server.

we have an overflow in lions arch/caledon forest and kessex hills…its usually about 10 people running in these areas at this time.. yet 2 maps have no FSP presence at all.. i mean zero.

Atleast the ones getting FSP back to Tier 3 can be proud unlike the winning team joiners on SFR. Atm Riverside and SFR focusing on us, seem Riverside accepted they wont go up anymore, kinda dumb anyway.

omg someone taught riverside a new tactic. Now they can do more than sit in SM and build 100 items of siege (well arrow carts and ballistaes – do they not have cats and trebs on german servers?)

We can now add 9am golem zergs v empty severs.

I look forward to kicking riversides kitten again this week.

That’s just sad. It’s Saturday evening and Far Shiverpeaks holds literally nothing, not even a single supply camp except on its own borderlands. This is what happened to once successful WvWvW server after several weeks of losing to night and morning cappers.

SFR doesnt have night/morning cappers….

Mate u can blame the night/morning cappers only if u DO lead in primetime… I look forward to see some good fights in EU primetime… Let’s see

Let’s just all fight as good as we can and keep it fun
Seafarer’s lead now, but i’m glad to see even you don’t have 24/7 coverage so at least we can fight back.

He isn’t even talking about your server so there is no need to get defensive.

Far Shiverpeaks has lost at least half of it’s WvW population (including pretty much all the big organized guilds), due to free transfers and people quitting the game. The big organized guilds left because Arenanet made WvW a 24/7 warfare and Far Shiverpeaks never had the coverage for that. They were tired of seeing all their primetime effort gone to waste so they abandoned our server.

We don’t have a single active organized guild left right now. Only thanks the efforts of our commanders that organize the pugs we didn’t drop even more tiers.

That is what he was complaining about.

So what about all that smack talk that you organized a 30man+ nightcrew to fight back.
And actually did, since you actually surpassed Kodash in the last 3 days of T4 matchup.

Now its about transfer again? Atleast badmouth the shores carebears this time.
Huge dissapointment since I hoped the staying FSP parties would give us a fight, lets see monday if anything changes.

Glad we (FSP) are getting destroyed this week.

The previous tier was a ball, the 2 enemy servers were all about enjoying the game and fighting (reasonably) fair.
As soon as you rise up through the tiers you come across those that sacrifice skill and fun for the sake of winning – more commonly known as zerging.
Unsure how anyone can find running in packs of 50+ chasing soloers/small groups 3/4 across the zones.. Maybe they are that bad it makes them feel good?

Anyway hopefully this will see the end of our nightcappers on FSP and allow us to drop the tiers again for some REAL pvp.

I’m sorry Diablo, but saying that FSP doesn’t have one single organized guild left is kinda cruel, especially to the guilds who are still here and organized.

It doesn’t matter what tier we are, having a good fight is the important thing, whether its 50 vs 50 or 10 vs 10.
And we can’t win em all right

I should have said big organized guilds instead, because this is indeed put too harshly. I never really see any big organized guild teams anymore, thats why. EpiC has some decent sized groups, TNA sometimes and a few others. But nothing like before with Nug, SFRJ and GF.

Just met a guild called “Far Shiverpeaks Deserters”. Don’t get me wrong i don’t downgrade your Server and the people that fought for SFR from the beginning, but fact is you are benefiting alot from those winning team joiners. If you were on a Server from the beginning through its ups and downs u can still be proud to win any battle no matter under what circumstances, those “deserters” however can’t

Still looking forward to some good fights, its not yet FSP’s time again, but it will come.

Btw. will SFR and Riverside remain making love to eachother while completely focussing on the weakest of the 3?

Tbh both of you are being rly bad so far so it doesn’t matter who we hit, we’re not focusing anybody, most of us are just in troll mode cuz that PvE event is ruining this week’s matchup

Our best known guilds – FU and OSC – are native to the server, there are also many small guilds that were in the alliance since day one (they’re still small, but now they are more organized and play better, like all of us), the guilds that came from other servers successfully adapted to the alliance

Anyway, server transfers are part of the game

We love riverside so much that we spawn camp them in FS borderland most of the time . But maybe you refer to EB, well Riverside got an pasive playstile , they focus 90% on defence and 10% on conquer. They even keep teams of 6-7 ppls on supply camps to defend non stop. We was vs them 5 weeks out of 6 , so we already know eachother strategy, maybe is the reason they play so defensive vs SFR.
Regarding the clan “Far Shiverpeaks Deserters” , i understand them , is not easy to drop from t1 to bottom t3, when you are really active, and is not up to you.

We have had guys move from SFR when times were not so good to FSP – goes both ways.

We swapped these guys for Iamacop, fair trade if you ask me.

u know, riverside was the weakest out of our last match till the last 2-3 days but millers was the on getting smashed whole week nonstop basicaly just cuz of being a threat. Dunno if they atacked each other that much till the last day since they both german servers

Just a note, id prefer people having respect for their opponent, without that opponent you have no wvw, people doing stupid emotes on your corpse after facerolling a keep on autoattack is just wrong, spread the word

Oh and it seems like all tiers have thesame problems if you check http://mos.millenium.org/matchups#EU
There’s always one dominating server, the rest fight for scraps.
Our last match with kodash and augury seems to have been a very exceptionally close match 3 ways, equally strong opponents.
So i think a lot of the dissapointment comes from the fact that this is way less exciting than last match for us FSP.

For the record, those of us that left FSP, did NOT leave because we started losing. We left because: 1 FSP has turned inn to a MAJOR pve server because it got so hyped under the beta weekends.
2. we are wvw players and when the server we are on dont give us the wvw experience we want, we move to a place that can provide such a ting. Its not fun when u always have the outmaned buff when playing(btw SFR was 2 brackets under FSP when we moved).
3. The combination of drama and our guild withdrawing from the alliance
4. some of us also have personal reasons for leaving.
So stop crying about us leaving and focus on playing the game. I dont get why ppl are so upset about us leaving FSP. Its just a game and u want to make the game as fun as u possibly can.

Well you always got reasons for a winning team join but nevermind. The bigger joke is actually what is going on rightnow. FSP obviously the weakest server between the matchup and this is what the map usually looks like.

Since the matchup almost every fighting is going on in our Borderland or in our part of EB. It is pretty interesting

Well, I just recently joined wvw battles and I’m really a newbie, so you can take my comment and throw it away if you’d like. I came here in the forum especially to see if someone was talking about this match. And so it is.

It’s really sad to see so little wvw participation in our server (FPS) but we work hard to be competitive. To see our Commanders’ committment in creating stable groups make me want to fight to overturn the results every time. But to see two servers collaborate like this time is even more sad, it makes me think ‘whoa, what a bad game they’re doing’. And to be clear, so many hours spent without even trebbing around towers from stonemist and attacking instead our lonely little towers with at least 3-4 golems a time, or see a huge green group coming to defend a nearly empty blue tower from our attack and then go away… imho is ‘making love’ as Suppenkasper previously said.

Unfortunately things like this are part of the game, but at least I’m proud to defend myself from this ‘winning’ methods, even if that means we’ll lose badly in points.

People on FSP need to accept the fact that this is a PvX server. If an event comes up you better believe almost everyone is going to take part. No excuses just facts.

I can tell you why both sides attack FS. Most of the time you have no players anywhere, so its easy to cap your towers and keeps. At night/morning it basically means free points. Simple as that, no alliance or double teaming.

I know its sucks to be in your position, and I can feel for FS. Before the mass transfer to Blacktide you were the best server in european prime time, only to get nightcapped every single week by Vizunah. It’s a shame, but unfortunately thats the way WuvWuv works. So props to every FS player who comes out every day and put in a good fight. I hope you find your spot in the ranking, and i’m looking forward to good prime time battles.

Looks like ur more interedted in inciting a flamewar than a debate..fsp is a pvx server..which just happens to be good at wvw. But not good enough to be in top 2or3 tiers. Hes only stating the facts wheter u accept it or not..

You server is better than us..good for you. Theres no need to bad mouth anybody

I didn’t mean to sound like a kitten but the situation is frustrating for the last few dedicated WvW players on FSP that are not part of huge guilds and were taken over to another server. And now facing that our major WvW alliance, which people once relied on, is a PvE alliance is making it not any easier. However i dont want to make this a flame topic so im just sucking it and heading back to WvW! Cu out there

ankdarkwolf.1487:

But to see two servers collaborate like this time is even more sad

Let me be clear:

We’re not collaborating. If anything we don’t like Riverside. We just attack you more because you are basically free points.

No conspiracy theories please, no one is out to get you.

That said, I haven’t WvW’ed much this week due to that lame PvE event ruining the matchup, I even brought my lvl 10ish alts because I was bored.

It is quiet simple , FSP just isnt strong enough at the moment to fight in T3.

Millers seems to be stronger than FSP too , so even if the last Weeks Matchup would have resulted in : SFR vs MILL. vs FSP, you would have complained about a Alliance between Mill. and SFR.

Sad honestly. Riverside would rather have 40-50 players working on there turtles and portal tatics in there own corner of the map than fight. Only 10 FU guys in Riverside BL and 3 VOTF guys aswell have all 3 keeps in there and most objectives on the map.

Sunday afternoon is training day on Riverside. We develop new tactics, we answer questions from new players, we work on teamplay and communication.

I can assure you, we were not training turtle tactics. We are thinking offensively. Enjoy your keeps and towers, when training is over we usually go out and paint the map in our colors.

While we waited for everyone to show up, we fought OSC for a good one and a half hours with in epics fights.

It’s such a shame that FSP is too PvE focussed during events. Practically everyone runs off to do the new content, WvW will die out and after the event’s done people will be complaining that their server is losing at WvW.

You were there for over two hours, I don’t know if you’ve decided to move your carebear zerg and atually do something now, as i got too bored of waiting for you lot to make a move.

Maybe that’s your new tatic. Bore the opposition into leaving, paint the map your color and when we come back you go back into your corner

Btw, When was this push going be, I still see we have most the map? /yawn

Yes, but it is over now. I’m sorry that you had no fun in that time. We told the OSC commander after amazing fights that we would leave our garrison and begin our training session. Unfortunate, but that is something we start to develop on our server. I promise, we will fight all week long from now on. ;-)

ankdarkwolf.1487:

But to see two servers collaborate like this time is even more sad, it makes me think ‘whoa, what a bad game they’re doing’.

well just to clear something up for you. SFR WILL NEVER alliance with other servers, we play on our own and just want to play fairly. if it feels like your getting double teamed by Riverside and SFR, well we are not.

wait till your up against 2 german servers then you will know about double teaming

I’m glad too! If you think that zerging is what makes a server win, or that massive zerging alone is a viable tactic, well, that speaks for itself. I don’t want to sound too harsh but I’m not gonna accept your insinuations.

If you deny that zerging hasn’t atleast a major effect on the outcome then you’re living in lalaland. Due to the fact that wvw populations are not balanced it’s always the server with superior number that will win, sure you might win some fight when outnumbered, but those events are not enough to turn the tides.
Superior numbers also means you can hit multiple targets at a time giving the defenders no option but to give up certain locations.
Add in having a big nightcrew and the scores will be pretty screwed up.

wvw doesn’t reward people on low (wvw) population servers who fight equally hard as their opponents who outnumber them. A snowball effect occurs with the weak just becoming weaker as the week continues, ruining the fun for all servers really.

If you think about it, WvWvW favors zergplay in many ways. You take out keeps and towers much faster with more people, you can cap supplycamps which are not supposed to be capped, you can rezz people almost instantly. Everyone gets the same xp/karma/gold, regardless how many players capped a supply camp or tower.. Orange swords show you where something big is going on. Its easier to crush that with more numbers and will put you in a good spot.

There is actually no need to split your forces, apart from using “advanced” tactis. But your tactics can be countered by a zerg almost every single time without a problem. Its not a beautiful way of playing the game, but actually the most efficient. Sad, but true

No offence or flame but your server is only good at pvd. You take keep/tower from 2 am to 4 am. It’s not the first time we met… I hope u don’t train on this.

Riverside suck by any measurement – how they got to T3 is beyond me. They are awful beyond belief.

Seems FS has given up completely. might as well close it now for this week Anet – its pretty much all over with ;p

It’s not other till the fat lady sings.

Riverside are still in it imo.

What an absolutely useless server Far Shiverpeaks has become. Sunday night and I’m guessing about ten people are active in all of the four BGs. If anyone is considering transferring to this server save yourself the headache and don’t.

Only 3 days left until I can get away from here…

ethier.3417:

Not a chance. Server doesn’t know how to do anything except sit in a keep till they have 60 or so people – throw up 10-15 balistae and then wait for an hour before rushing 10 people. They can’t attack – they are terrible.
