“We’ve been taking feedback and testing the area and we are planning to release the new version of the map in November, barring any unforeseen difficulties. "

Is this on schedule for later this month or for tomorrow? Just wondering. Thanks.

Wait, what happened to no updates during the season?

GvG is more important that the seasons.

I hope I don’t have to queue EBG, still. Is Obsidian Jumper still possible with the update?

I believe you queue outside of EBG now. And I would assume so, I bet they only made a few minor over all changes to the map to allow for GvG Size battles easier.

If you don’t know how it will work, click the link in the first post.

Okay, well I didn’t see any announcement or news so I’m going to guess that it is not coming tomorrow.

Actually I believe it is. It’s been largely introduced due to the GvG scene getting messed around by WvW and sPvP developers upset that GvG ‘violated their game mode’. Which culminated in an ANet employee trolling a GvG match.

The reason it’s not mentioned is because they didn’t really want to implement it and once its there, GvG will have to moderate itself.

This doesn’t impact WvW or the scoring, so it is fine with me. In fact, it is a good change since they will allow direct access to that JP without needing to go through EB. Anything to help reduce the queue is a good change.

They already kind of threw that out the window by adding the toxic stuff to WvW anyways. Unless I missed it, still no word on that from anet?

Yes…. this entire update is very meh…. nothing really interesting at all except the new open world tower event, which will likely be interesting for about an hour.

“Introduced further server-side optimizations, with significant improvements during heavy combat scenarios.”

Reduced skill lag sounds awesome to me. :P

sigh, got all exited for nothing…

There is an update coming on the 19th, kinda odd because the LS is on a 2 week cycle.

please don’t break WvW. Nobody cares about changes to the JPs because nobody does them.
