WvW is already a blow out with unbalance population coverage already, please put in auto balance so that we have even numbers to play with in EOTM, which is probably the most important thing in a pvp setting…

THank you

*come on man, when is the auto balance gonna come in?

nobody can play , green has nothing to take, red and blue has nobody because we are totally outnumbered… whats the point of this pvp mode if there’s no balance?

Some work on this would be extremely helpful. I’m on Yak’s Bend and for over a week now EotM has been absolutely miserable, what with Overgrowth camping at spawn and zergbusting nonstop. It’s gotten to the point where we never have anyone online in EotM and every overflow is full of Overgrowth bullies. People try to get a group going and within an hour everyone has straggled out, demoralized and tired. Please please please do something about this.

In EU I am surprised when I do NOT have outmanned buf (but it never last longer than a few minutes). The team with SFR has nearly always 3:1 superiority over both other teams since months.

Balance is more important than a new map and it’s broken since nearly a year:
Do something useful, ANet none cares about the JP boxes.

When will you recognize the current WvW/EotM-imbalance as that what it is:
A game-breaking bug that disables gameplay.

Comparing it to PvP: If all PvP-matches would be setup by the system to be 5 vs 2, how long would you need to recognize, search and fix the bug? A week? A month or as in WVW/EotM over a year?

EotM’s intended purpose was an overflow for WvW to give people in queue for WvW something like WvW to do which did not affect the outcome of the weekly match. If your server does not have a queue on all four maps then get in WvW and help them out. If enough people on your server did this maybe you too could join the ranks of OG in EotM—if you still care about EotM by then.

Auto balance seems like a stupid idea to me. Its not a structured pvp where it has to be balanced.

Green always have full map when match start. Maybe some kind of rage quit fee would be nice. If you leave mist after first wipe you need to pay 10g.

I was more blaming ANet, but yeah all the people that transferred to SFR for easy baggies are a double fault as well

  • they pay to win, such that Anet likes the current system
  • they pay to win, as an easy way to be on the winner side

Besides were blue this week so can’t plaim us about green OP.

Opener did not said green is OP. 2nd poster said green OP, but he is NA In EU blue is dominating EotM this week, not green, green has out-manned buf quite often.

The only reason for Eotm is for pve scrubs to transform into loot bags for the rest of us. Its a WvW map its survival of the fittest. Deal with it and go to arah or SW to have fun.

“survival of the fittest” would be cool, but from last time with same color as SFR I remember that there was no fitness-difference only a masses-difference

fittest can refer to quantity or to quality, doesnt matter as long as it works. What I detest are all those PvE players that have occupied a WvW map and turned into PvE karma train. Then again those are the best loot bags…

1. Get a GvG guild that isn’t pathetic.
2. Get about 10-15 players.
3. Wipe Server-size blobs
4. ???
5. Profit.

Just stop complaining. Video related. Resolution and quality is absolute kitten as the guy who made doesn’t have a good setup.

Isn’t the idea behind EoTM an overflow from WvW? So if you cap it, green will get a queue because there won’t be enough red or blue to fill the maps.

Randomize colours for each match up, then maybe a cap will work. This would also solve the exploration problem. If colours are random you have a chance every week to see that green keep or whatever you are missing.

Stop saying that. This morning there’s a guild doing that while tagged, splitting our numbers, and they aren’t very good. So all they are doing is running around aimlessly not capping things and wiping. The other commander who is trying to actually do things got fed up and left. =(

All I wanted was another 33k karma for my mittens maybe some exotic accessories until I get enough laurels for the pink stuff.

I don’t really like this idea. How is it really going to be implemented so that it helps more than hurt? I mean, say I was tagged up fighting in a keep and the auto-balance kicked in and I ended up getting ported to a different overflow or lost a fair bit of the people because they were zoned into another map.

If anything, I would like to see more done to the overflow system in general. I would like to see ways to track different overflows chose which one I would like to enter, or possibly que up for a particular overflow.

I think they mean more like maps should fill up in an even fashion, not based on which servers are linked to which color for the week. Because the servers themselves are very imbalanced.

Make it so the ONLY way to get in is if WvW is full. Or not. Or put a hard limit on it and then the only way to go over the limit is if WvW is full. Some players only WvW can the same be said of EoTM? I can’t imagine why a fully geared 80 would religiously play EoTM.

Maybe it was once meant as overflow, but in the meantime it is the

  • better game mode, as it able to adapt the provided game-capacity to the demanded game-capacity.
  • more popular game mode.

Why would you restrict access to the principly better game-mode based on people play the bad mode? Just to make the dying of the worser game-mode WvW a bit more lengthy? It will die as fast, simply because 24/7 fixed capacity is bad design, just additionally no one can play the better mode.

Another “side-effect” of course would be: Everyone that likes to play EotM has to move to kitten be able to play what he likes. So you just presented another reason to increase overstacking on a single server. Great, thats what WvW and EotM really miss

I mean, say I was tagged up fighting in a keep and the auto-balance kicked in and I ended up getting ported to a different overflow or lost a fair bit of the people because they were zoned into another map.

In PvP autobalance has to move people around as a match with 5 people and 5 min has no fluctuation and 2 people more or less make a big difference.

Auto-balance in EotM hasn’t been that drastic. It’s probably enough that everyone that joins EotM is added to the smallest team, then natural fluctuation will be enough to lead to balance.

Only server-color-to-team has to be replaced by new-joiner-to-smallest-team to reach balanced EotM.

That image is abit misleading tho dude. There was a EoTM loading bug all last night, where whole maps were getting kicked, client crashes and then eotm loading screen sticking followed by another dc etc. Our map last night had only 7 FR 10 BL and for over an hour only 15 OG on the whole map. But overall I’d agree the current system of pooling all last weeks winning servers into green and OG is completely unbalanced. Ofcourse they will have more active wvw players and guilds if you do that.

Personally I suspect they WANT it unbalanced for three reasons.

1. Its being used to incurage people to win their wvw match to have a chance of being OG in the next match.

2. To tempt people into buying xfer to higher tier servers.

3. To reducing the chances of people simply ktrain 24/7. Make it unbalanced and ofcourse there will be more bagfarming than ktraining = reduced loot for players = less gold = higher chance people buy gems instead of farming the gold = more profits for anet.

They could quite easy make the EoTM match up colors random if they wanted or more balanced and we’ve seen them doing in the passed in wvw systems. And I’ve heard anet are “working on a balance to eotm”. As said highly unlikely for the reasons given that anet will want to make it more balanced in eotm anytime soon, as annoying as that is we have to deal with it as best we can.

2. To tempt people into buying xfer to higher tier servers.

My husband believes this is the sole reason why transfers are still as expensive as they are and why we will never see balanced WvW. He assumes the majority of large gem purchases are transfers, and thus it’s in Anet’s best interest not to balance. It’s one heck of a tin hat, but it wouldn’t surprise me. And it’s one the major reasons he refused to play GW2.
