I love the new maps!

With the addition of temples and other events, there is so much more to do as a roamer! And the maps look beautiful! I love roaming and finding new spots/shortcuts I can use later on..

I think the maps are awesome and should NOT be changed. People will get used to the size.. I understand that lower tier servers might find the size to be a big issue though, we’ll see how they solve this problem.

Anyways have a nice evening

Is that better for a roamer?

Is walking 25 minutes accross the too large map better for a roamer?

Seriously guys, you are so negative it’s incredible.. TBH, no I haven’t seen as many players as I used to in the old maps, but you have to consider a large part of the community is in pve levelling masteries.. Or farming in general. And when I was talking about events, I didn’t mean JPs and such, I meant actual events that give wvw xp and that will help your server win the matchup. It’s just a matter of time until the wvw maps get filled, and while I do not believe the saturation will be as high as in the old maps (because they were so small (and boring)), there will definitely be enough players to create a strong wvw-component in gw 2. I just hope people will stop complaining one day, because it gets other easily influenced people the idea that the new maps are kitten , which they are not. Again, I understand how the size may me an issue for lower tier servers but that’s about it.. The rest is really positive for me.

I haven’t been to the new maps, but its good to hear something positive about them. I always play a roamer on any class, so I’m hoping the new map will be fun for roaming.

ok ok, I understand you can have pleasure to make pve around the map and sometimes see some ennemy guy to kill.

Swap EBG with “ONE” (1) copy of the new map.
Return original BL maps, to include ruins.
Connect new map with gates to access BL maps.
BL maps are supply chain.
New map is primary.

In enter WvW you start at your respected BL map. You collect supply here and the ruin buff. Of course the ruin buff timer is increased to 15 or 30 minutes. Anyway, you work your way though this map to build up supply and add/pay for sentries. In order to enter the new map you pass through here first.

Main idea is that in order to access new map you must pass “go” first. While passing through you are collecting supply, ordering guards, and gaining ruin buff if applicable. Maps have activity because supply / people is flowing through it. You pass through a main gate(s) from respected server to new map. People can camp/guard gates. It is a choke point. If you don’t want the gate due to possible camping / ganking, remove gate and portal it.

Point is, you have a steady flow by connection and pathing. People can access other servers BL’s by reverse order of course and you would do this to limit their supply or guards.

Flow is the problem that we have always had. Has nothing to do with map size outside lower populated servers. Flow is mandatory otherwise we’ll all end up right back in EBG once the newness wears off…

Maybe you could describe for us what a good wvw session looks like to you? How does it play out? Because I think myself and at least a few others have a different image of what it is than you do.

If it takes you 25 minutes to cross the map you have larger problems, my friend.

I’ve tried roaming the borderlands twice now for an hour each.. Even with camps and a tower flipping randomly, I still never see anyone.

I mostly play for the new Free-For-All arena in PvP lobby.

You’re wrong, the forums are full of negatiity turning cancerlike, we might as well combine the unofficial ones with these lol.

Hardly anyone will try to think positively and anyone trying to stimulate productive conversation or give their thoughts that they enjoy it is shot down instantly, can’t people kitten off unless they have something nice to say anymore, since when did the WvW community become so toxic in 4 days.

I’m disgusted

Yes, because surely we would all appreciate threads with “I have no strong feelings one way or another” and “all I know is that my gut says maybe”. kittening neutrals.

You may also want to read up on the definition of “forum”.

Roaming paradise?? The only place roaming is even viable now is Eternal. The new maps are beautiful, but you walk around for 20+ minutes before you even find anyone, and half the time you find anyone, its too many people to kill as a roamer lol..

Also, I used to solo towers on the old map, I can’t do that anymore since tower lords have been buffed. I also can’t do that anymore since it is harder to claim camps for +5 and they’ve made guild catas cost 50 supply.

They’ve done a lot of changes in this expansion to ensure that if you want to roam, you are going to PvP instead of WvW. I’ve personally adapted, I play PvP mostly now then run with the bigger guild I’m in when they’re doing WvW raids. I don’t roam anymore..
