Guild Wars 2

Hopefully new map is so annoying that blobbers won’t come blob there.

I once spoke to a lead from a certain department. I will not say who and when. But he said during their meetings, GvG has been brought up on multiple meetings with the leads from each department and is backed by Devon.

an interesting read that hopefully the people at ANet have looked over http://www.vg247.com/2014/07/09/league-of-legends-smite-heroes-moba-bandwagon-disaster/

GW2 has a lot of originality in it’s platform here, but they run the risk of being all things to no people.

That’s a fascinating read.

The game is balanced around 5v5… not sure why anyone is surprised that the new mode is 5v5 >.>

I thought they said it would still be beta tested at 8v8 or even 10v10 to see how it plays out. Maybe Im mistaken though!

What type of GvG? Be more specific. GW1 gvg? Stronghold gvg? WvW gvg?

But what if 5 player team doesn’t stay together whole time? If they split things get unbalanced. 10 player team could split into two and still be balanced.

Some companies think if they copy WoW, they will be successful. Other thinks if they make some moba style game they will become some kings of esports and swim in cash(NC$oft)
Anyway, they obviously listen to us!

They list up to 7 player roles in their latest post. https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/stronghold-the-battle-of-champions-dusk/

Sounds like too much need to be a good dueler. They mention being able to duel in a number of the roles. Even in roles that seem like they would attract a more casual crowd. That doesn’t sound good to me.

It is gona be a pure gimmik gameplay based on 2 or 3 classes.

IF anet deleted all other stats from game and left all player like a pure copy paste stats class would be better than create ton of placebos.

would not even hurt the game…

woah there. “WvW community asking”.

GVG is a fraction, a minor sub species of WvW. Stronghold is not designed to satisfy this small group of players, at all.

Yeah. The blog post, to me, reads that it is simply another sPvP mode. I have no idea how anyone got it in their heads that it had anything to do with WvW.

Well it is kind of easy make sPvP game mode that is more fun than wvw, but problem is that they don’t make any fun sPvP game modes. Why not just instal some no name f2p mmorpg and copy game mode there. Would work much better.

I’m pretty sure this should be in PvP as it has nothing to do with WvW. But more importantly I read the article and I don’t see anything about 5 v 5 on there? Where did you get your information?
