Guild Wars 2

I Currently play in a T1 NA Server. Over the past 2-3 days spying has gone to a all new low atleast in the T1 servers. Between major battles at hills to zerg vs zerg at bay. Since the last update to the “server transfer” system it has been a lot worse. Here’s why… IF i am in SBI and transfer to BG At the end of the leagues i get the achievement of SBI even thou i “play” for BG. Arenanet needs to think about this system again.. Either not allow transfer at all or if you transfer you can no long get the reward for the end of the league. This new transfer system is really discouraging players is WvW. Also another thing i see, Alliances between server. It is sad i see Server come up behind another and not even try to fight but yet they double team together.. The alliance thing is really hard to try and prove ect… Not to sure how they can enforce that.

What are other people thoughts. I for one LOVE the leagues play. It brings out the competitiveness in players. Its amazing how people will work together there is just a few things need to be tweaked. IMO

You watching too much movies:-)

it’s a valid point rozbuska. it is out of control

Dude, we’ve had people spy on us here on SF and we’re not even T1. I’m probably going to have to elaborate with that so here it goes; but a long time ago when we were fighting DH and HoD (I think), we wouldn’t get an inkling of an attack or zerg rush unless we took a camp. However, when our commander would run to a tower and popped his tag, it wouldn’t even be twenty seconds later and he would get rolled by a sixty man zerg. I think he actually tested this by going tagless for a while before popping his tag at a location. I’m not sure of the results, but I think we eventually concluded that there was a spy and there wasn’t anything we could do about it conventionally. We lost due to the lack of organization.

said this a month or 2 ago and now its come to be

yes but now the people spying get benefit from it because they get credit for the server that they are spying for at the end of the leagues

no i mean like, i said exactly this. that there is no reason you shouldnt get several people to transfer to and sabotage your opponents because spies get the reward for their original server and just 1 can wreak more havoc on servers from the inside than a bonus 30 players at all times ever could.

it was actually largely ignored by we the players unfortunately. not much discussion went on.

We’ve had people log in and start an upgrade the same moment the enemy zerg comes to take an area.

We’ve had DDoS attacks onour TS.

We’ve had the enemy report our commanders to stop them from communicating over chat.

We’ve had people log in to take golems off cliffs moments before we switch borderlands to rush an enemy castle to pull their numbers from other maps.

And this in bronze… I can’t imagine the mischief going on in gold.

Even when I was playing in T7 people claim spies on every server every match. They also claim intentional double teaming on every server, every match.

It’s getting so old, cause if we believed in every claim then everyone is equally getting double teamed and spied on every week, it evens itself out.

I know on our TS we have had to make a private protected channel so we can converse with each other because other server’s would come in and blast the most annoying sounds known to man in our ears loud enough to leave us ringing and with very bad headaches. I don’t think it says in the rules anywhere though that if two opposite sides meet, that you HAVE to fight them. But I agree double teaming is wrong as well.

The double teaming is just going to happen. Its a 3 way fight and if your all equal its how you get things done. But the spying is annoying. Had a guy walk 4 Omega golems off the cliff at Hills and then build a few alphas with our supply and then walk them off the cliff at Hills. Last week our commander got so frustrated witht the tag watchers that he finnaly tagged down and we took the garrison without hardly any resistance.

Spying is a fact of the game. We can either moan about it and report the ones we know are doing it or we can join in the fun and just ignore the small minority.
