Guild Wars 2

in PVP/sPVP, there’s a voice over and a message like “Team A seized the Quarry!” “Team B get the capture point” “You have lost Keep” etc

It would wonderful if we can have the same thing in WvW. We always have to press M or having someone to monitor the map very often. Because the mini map UI cannot show the whole map, we actually need that more than the PVP players.

For balance and not being too disturbing, I suggest the message only pop up the info of the borderland which u are staying in.

+1 Great idea!
It would be even better, if the voice would defend the stuff for us and just hand us over the bags.
That way we wouldn’t have to actively play WvW, because obviously we can’t even be bothered to open up the map every once in a while to check if there is anything contested. And think of all those poor people who actually have to stand in a tower/keep to defend it, when they could be on the TP making the real money!

Come on man… this dude’s just voicing his opinion. If you don’t like it, why don’t you try being constructive? No reason to be a smart kitten to the fella…

I’m voicing my opinion, too. Yes, in a quite sarcastic way and maybe a bit harsh, but it isn’t really THAT much of an effort to press M and check on the map if there is anything under attack. And I get that you can’t even have scouts for most of your own towers, but if you lose it and no one wanted to defend the thing, than it wasn’t that important.
On a more constructive note: I really think it would be quite annoying when every time someone attacks a camp/a sentry/a dolyak/one of the ruins/any tower (belonging to my side or not) there would be a voice “xbriar is under attack”, “southcamp is under attack”, “southcamp again”, “insert ruin is under attack”.
Yes, you could make it an option for the players to mute the thing via audiosettings but come on…
Pvp is a much quicker gamemode, it’s over in a matter of minutes, so for this it really is far more important to be up to date on stuff. WvW match ups are on for a whole week. It really isn’t that important to know if every little stuff is contested.
