So basically you guys are saying you do not want players from pve and you do not want new players? Then how do you expect WvW to get better?
Bah don’t listen to the snobs.
If I ever get ANY time off work, I’ll take ALL of you pve folks interested in WvW and run clinics. And then we will collectively smoosh all the snobs
Idiots who expect you to come into game knowing everything are just .. well .. idiots.
The only way you can learn is by making mistakes. And the only way you can fix mistakes is by learning from others.
Pretty much every server out there used to run zerg, siege and scouting clinics for all new incomers. It may be time for each collective server to revisit that, invest the time, and set up a schedule of events, and invest in your community.
They should just remove eotm because it literally has no purpose anymore the one purpose it had was which faster level up but that doesn’t happened anymore.
I think they should keep it to keep the ktrain over there instead of bringing it to WvW.
There are a lot of players in EoTM who don’t even know what WvW and can get hooked to WvW
That is why they need to make WvW " a thing" outside of WvW again. Making the Cities Sever based and maybe even working it in with like statues and stuff for WVW like I said will make it easier for WvW players to go to cities and recruit players from there. It would be nice for players to come in to WvW expecting to fight and not get mad when they find out other players can attack them there.

Agreed. I know the folks who used to run those on TC stopped due to lack of interest. I’m seeing more people stop in now which is good. Gotta replace those burnt out crispy Toasts somehow.

Tarnished Coast: Bringing the Butter to you (no pants allowed)
NA prime had at least 2-4 wvw streams last night, I could have set up mine but I was in the same squad as one of the other guys. There’s at least one EU prime streamer and one SEA player who streams sometimes. The only problem for that being a resource is most run with a delay making it hard to communicate directly with viewers.
What wvw needs is a dedicated neutral delayed broadcast on reset and a few other nights a week done through some sort of spectator mode where they could hop around the action and show both the tight end of the fights and the map wide consequences from them.
I just see dirty hands exploiting anything of that calibre tho.
I have to think that something like this could also be player driven. I’m sure many of you make little guild trailers here and there.
I like the idea of promoting a large scale battle in a trailer, and yes … you in fact should show siege humpers, to give players outside the game the idea that there is siege weapons people use. You could also show things like a basic tower developing into a tier 3 tower. Small team sized battles at camps … large groups running in formation. Things like that. Hell even some comical RP walking up to or out from a keep, and gotta have in some spiking with finishers
While I like the idea of anet creating something like this … it costs $ and more importantly resources, which they don’t have any to spare.
What if there was a contest to develop a short 1 min or less video – at the very least Anet could take the top 3-5 and collect there raw footage.
…………………………
The map completion is not a great idea. It would only accomplish more forum vitriol in the end, alongside some salty players who are already kittened about the GoB change requiring them to come into WvW. Let’s not add to that.
…………………………
I do agree though, that in general, WvW could use some promotional marketing. This was something, coincidentally I brought up at a server level, more around promoting builds, and basics around objectives map awareness, anything really … to help newer players get up that learning curve faster.

EotM was supposed to be a place to pass your time while waiting in queue,assuming there would be a queue in all borderlands and EB.
At least that’s how I remember it was introduced to us.

Indeed. Originally it was a waiting area while in queue and a testing ground for new WvW features.
EotM then evolved into its own kind of game mode and could not serve as testing ground nor a place where WvW’ers would feel comfortable to pass time.
The downfall was too high rewards for the effort. Pity EotM also yields WXP rendering WvW ranks worthless.
Was it some SFR WvW guild that went into EotM to decimate the sheepish k-trains? I guess it was a good laugh to kill entire blob in a single push. As result the opposite teams tried first to avoid the guild group and then just quit playing the map until next reset. Just shows how different the game modes are.
I don’t think WvW could ever cater for the EotM type players without turning into EotM like game mode itself.

Eotm should have never been introduced or if it there shouldn’t be any rewards or experience earned from it. Should have been a strict testing ground

As much i agree and EOTM should be removed, Anet need to stop dumb and lame workround to avoid things getting fixed…
GW2 is a game for players who dont like effort or are awfull at other games, so EOTM is perfect pvp without pvp for them…

All WvW needs is for ANet to throw in a multi-season WvW season event for a WvW Legendary Back Piece. If you was to go into the actually PvP lobby and ask if PvP any and why they are pvping. They follow with.
A.) No PvP is the crap storm of lop sided matchups between teams with junior highschool players going against players that are in the NFL league tier. 9 out of 10 matches.
B.) I’m only here for the back piece and will never return to this crap ever again.
So many PvE players trolling pvper in ranked because their feel entitled to get the back piece by having actually PvP players carrying them to the Back Piece.
So I really think if ANet was to make a Legendary Back Piece for WvW the PvEers and some of the EotM players will come to WvW in droves to try and get it.
I maybe a troll with class.
But at least I admit it!
PoF guys get ready for PvE joys

I completely agree to this WvW needs multiple season with a legendary back piece and that will drive in a lot of players

No. We had a similar thing already. The world completion required players to visit all the WvW maps.
The response was exactly the same when I escorted some through the maps.
A) “I hate this. Why do I have to play something I don’t like?”
B) Those players never played any WvW other than that walk about.
ANet ended up removing the WvW maps requirement from the world completion.

There is nothing advertise worthy at the moment… I get the passion behind this, but we realistically have to tell ourselves that changes are just occurring after all these years and have a long way to go… The server linking is still messy. Profession improvements, cc reworks and stealth reworks need to be made… Lag issues are still plaguing gameplay… There are lots of things that need to be worked on first before a company starts to promote or advertise their game…
If Anet wants to do something news worthy, they should get the ball rolling before CU launches and have better, or at least comparable, features.
Edit- and gameplay is just a damage spam mess of nameplates and red aoes… It looks unappealing and not even that fun to play without decent profession roles, skills and mechanics.
