Guild Wars 2

well it’s a good thing they hotfixed the “issue where players who completed the Canach’s Lair instance before the release today can no longer receive rewards. All players will now be able claim the reward for completing this instance once more on any character.”

God help us if we can’t enter them canach lairs, who cares if we lose t3 keeps because we can’t build more than 2 ACs right?

yea, holding EB with no seidge at all, cant place an ac or anything but golems, this is real nice :/

You know what really sucked? This happened right after FA’s low population time, when we regularly get our whole EB side taken, and then we take it back…

Only now we have zero siege. And their side is still fully sieged, because theirs was placed.

Awesome.

FA was finally neck and neck before the patch.

7 + hours and can’t place siege.

Need a hotfix for this NOW….

Meh. Who needs siege. All you arrow cart whiners got what you asked for. No more siege.

It was fixed for a brief moment after that reboot patch, and it’s back to being the way it was before .. can’t even drop a ram, yet enemy servers on enemy bl’s can.

Still can’t drop Siege in EB for SoR…
Getting arrow carted but can’t retaliate… fix this please =)

This is reallly bad….. lololol.

i have to say this has made wvw far better i think. more loot bags and not who has the most ac’s in their towers.

Best night of WvW in quite awhile…

At least give us our rams and catapults

still exists, Fort Aspenwood
on the bright side i have a ton of bags and a couple level ups
on the bad side they all had blue and green crap

-.-" I can’t defend let alone take objectives because of this kitten up not impressed, sure means more open field but really now? Losing stuff to 5ppl that can drop siege while my forces can’t makes me a SAD kittenING PANDA.

yo…Dev who answered this…u wanna give us an ETA to this WvW crippling issue? I noticed you fixed some little silly stuff with the patch but didn’t seem to even acknowledge this on the update that you’re working on it

Snorcha.7586:

Quality coders ftw!

If you played other mmos you would realize how lucky you have it here at GW2 with things getting fixed.

hey at least less ac’s.So the AC problem did get fixed awesome!!! ok back in my golem!

Didn’t you know that gw means Golem Wars? gosh!

robot wars ! gundam time!

Unbelievable that this hasn’t been fixed already, it should have been the highest priority.

it’s WvW…it’s always gonna be put on the back burner to things like the Southsun event

Great WSR lost eb keep! enemy can place siege but we cant! ty Anet

SO great!! All towers keeps lost cause of this

Seems like its time to farm for money in pve vs WvW till this is addressed -.-"

is this fixed now?

its not
15 charsd

I’m totally fine with the not dropping of AC’s, but rams, catas, trebs etc.. it’d be nice to toss those down.

With the siege bug and the lack of arrow carts around, it sure does seem more fun, and the amount of world xp, gold, and karma being raked in is nice. Made about 2.5g in 30 min today.

gw2 needs a test server.

They have acknowledged it in this very thread you just posted in.

I’m pretty sure they would have fixed it by now if they could have. It’s not like programmers sit around looking at their bug saying to each other… hmm shall we fix it now or give it another day or two to get people really riled up. They do what they can and sometimes fixing a bug can take a lot more time than you’d wish. Considering the severity of the bug it’s probably quite a stressful situation, which is generally not conducive to quality code either, so let’s pray they take their time making sure any changes they make won’t introduce other bugs.

Is this fixed yet?

No its not.

And the situation is getting out of hand.

As usual this rewards the side with the most population

What? You though buffed arrow carts would ruin WvW? Well let ANet show you that they haven’t even begun to properly muck things up.

Coming up in the next patch, watch ANet accidentally turn all of WvW into an underwater world, with godlike rangers swimming amok.

Please please PLEASE don’t fix this. Best WvW I’ve ever had today. FINALLY people were fighting each other instead of hiding inside keeps/towers with their millions of arrow carts. Finally no zoom hacking or its legit equivalents. Finally some real fights instead of siege wars.

Go further and remove structural upgrades from towers/keeps to help reduce the time needed for pvdoor and increase the time available for real pvp! Oh and remove golems too.

Seriously, wvw hasn’t been this much fun and chaotic in a long time. It’s such a relief.

DevonCarver.5370:

We’ve found a bug in the siege cap and are working on addressing the problem as soon as we can.

Please dont!

you can only build offensive siege and cannot build defensive siege. golem rushes everything down. so if you have less ppl thats a gg already =P

The problem still persists on Miller’s Sound after some hours working right after the fix tonight. We can not deploy siege weapons in EB except for golems and the occasional ram or arrow cart if we’re lucky.

i guess this is 1 way to stop me throwing rams on dead commanders. going to get pricey since i have to throw golems now

Drigan.7382:

OUR PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED FINALLY!

Did they take away Keep/Tower upgrades too!?

No! You will have to break T3 Doors with Manpower xD

Its not like zergs already do this…

We attempted using omegas for defense.

It was horrendously ineffective, but awesome.

Also, no siege sure is fun when the enemy massively outnumbers you.

Im still have problem with sieges

i was able to put down ac’s just now in garrison and bay, so it might be fixed

to all the people here saying not to fix this.

i understand you, would even second this in view of more open field battles but:

on some maps you can build siege on some you don’t
some siege can be built (golems)

therefore

as long as not all players are affected in the same manner, it must be fixed

As a 24-hour bug, right before the end of the Tier system, I have to admit that the “no siege” thing is kinda fun (^_^).

That said, WvW is 100% broken until this gets back to a “Working as Intended” state.

Quite funny that people seems to assume that this is because they have not tested it.
I wonder how many of these people have actually ever developed something in their lives.
There is ALWAYS a difference between a test-server and a live-server. There can ALWAYS be things that turns up on live that was not there on the test.

Which is why people invented a things called “public test servers”.

Which is also a test server.
I can name several games with test-servers that still have issues when they move the new updates to live.

Very impressive work ….. are you ever make test before updating game?

Same here on Elona Reach. Can’t drop ANY siege weapon.
2 Borderlands and EB affected…

This is so annoying…

fixed after small patch last night (may 28 around 9ish) and now broken again so the only siege that can be dropped is golems as of 8:30 est am may 29 yaks bend server ( I am assuming all servers from the post)

Ok apparently this doesn’t affect all people or servers, on EBG right now, Yaks Bend can only build golems, but the Mags zerg have Arrow carts, how are you meant to defend against that,

This is a crippling WvW issue and any server with massive zergs can easily dominate, as smaller numbers with no siege stand no chance, you should have disabled WvW, and put this bug on your highest fix list you have.
