Guild Wars 2

You mean people would rather play for 3rd to get out of t1.

I’m sure I’d ‘earn’ a win in a hockey game if I spent the entirety of it on the right side of a 5-on-3 powerplay, too.

go D/WH and you will see why it is a really powerful skill, especially in big crowds it makes killing enemies a walk in a park.

Everyone should just transfer to Blackgate and sit in monster queues and then wonder why there is nobody to fight.

I’m not saying that is where the OP wants to go, but its the way the population is shifting.

It actually is where I want to go. The population happens to be shifting this way, but I just want to play with my friends lol…

I’d be OK lifting all server transfer limits and letting the population naturally balance out through higher queue times. I would rather face possible 100 man queues (been there done that for a few months, was like only on reset night…) than just never being able to transfer to Blackgate.

BG is probably the most populated server at the moment.

Given that we have many full servers who are clearly below BG’s level of population. I don’t see it magically open in near future.

And it shouldn’t open for a while.

I would also like the accounts that haven’t been active in WvW for more than 6 weeks to be put into a pool of non affiliated accounts which would require them to choose a new open server them next time they want to log into WvW. Would help reduce hibernation.

I second that. Having servers stay full because some PvE casual does dailies in WvW once a month is kitten.

Look! Review scores! Assigning numerical values to subjective feelings without any sort of unifying scale or objective measure! I can get in on this:

Firebrand: 6
Holosmith: 4
Scourge: 9
Mirage: 7
Soulbeast: 7
Deadeye: 5
Renegade: 8
Spellbreaker: 2
Weaver: 5

Because that’s what I rolled on the d10.

i respect how u feel but not everyone is meant to have this.

as a com who soleplays in wvw, i grind for this patiently and it being my first legendary, i dont want others to get it easily because it is already very easy.

yeah, I actually make more money in wvw than with boss trains. Sure flax farming would be even more profitable, but so boring.

Comon, tell me you have never gotten frustrated at a asura commander before

As someone playing only Asura and command from time to time, my opinion on that matter is neutral.

Mal’s answer pretty much sums it up.

TC still queues maps during NA time zone. The other time zones don’t have the coverage to be competitive. Most nights we have 2 maps queued during NA and lots of good fights.

Thank you guys for understanding!

From playing Dota2 a lot when something is obviously broken the dev’s fix it the next day generally. I understand there’s a lot of things that need balance in this game, but a good indication of something being broken is when there are 2 classes (for this game) playing the same exact thing. 80% of my matches from today have been against the s/d condi thief build, and honestly it’s complete kitten. D/p despite the mobility takes so much more thought to play than pressing two buttons and spamming two on sword or resetting and reapplying conditions. There are a lot of people in the higher brackets that shouldn’t be there because of the build, but A-net is so transparent about nerfs, and only limits their nerfs to Tuesdays at some random date and at some random day in the future. The nerfs need to take place sooner that’s what keeps a PvP community evolving, but we get stuck in these meta’s with obviously boring to watch and play meta’s. Increase the difficulty of pvp and not cater to people who believe they want to belong in a higher MMR bracket than they are in.

Well to be honest. The business models or the GW2 and DOTA are night and day.

DOTA makes it’s money off of having decent competition and sponsorships. So they have to make sure the PvP in their game is top noch, balanced, and fun to watch.

GW2 makes it’s money off of the opposite. PvE and easier and mindless gameplay with heavy emphases on appearances rather then competition.

If you don’t like the direction the game took just before HoT, this expac probably won’t make you happy either, since it doubles down on the new trait system, the living world stories, and nearly everything else that HoT introduced (many of the details are different, but the overarching goals, mechanics remain the same).

You can play this weekend’s demo for free and check it out. Or wait for October to see reviews.

PS the cost of PoF basic is US$30. If you bundle in HoT when you pre-purchase, it’s US$50 — that’s the same price that HoT alone cost 2 years ago, but this time, you get both HoT & PoF. (So there’s a weak argument to be made that you do get HoT included with the “full” price… but I doubt that will sway anyone on the fence about HoT in the first place.)

Private tactivators & reporting.
No you’re not going to stamp out griefing. No, giving control of a server to a certain group of people is not going to solve your problem.

Tickets are fine.

It’s interesting to note you cap it in 2 days, meaning you are likely either mithril/diamond rank, playing on a server that is consistently outnumbered on at least one map, or playing an amazing number of hours each day.

Either way, you are playing the mode extensively, so the comments of ‘play the mode you’ll get there eventually’ are less influential in your case.

But it would be good if the mystic coins from the last diamond chest were repeatable for the last chest.

i love how everyone here is suggesting work arounds as opposed to accepting that there is indeed a very simply inbalance

Gliding in combat is good, it’s enjoyable and increases tactics.

entomology

You mean “etymology”.

Entomology is the study of insects.

Oh man. One of the reasons I love GW2 is because this doesn’t exist Why wouldn’t someone be able to identify something they picked up anyway. It’s not like you have to bring it to “the Identifier” for a professional evaluation to find out, “Yep! it’s another jacket all right!” It’s just an annoying step imho. Is there any story/lore/thingy to adding this or is it just a way to sell ID machines or kits in the Gem Store? bah!

I’ve been PC only since ’92. My last console was a SEGA genesis. I have 0 interest in playing games on consoles, ever.

Poor zerglings.

Cant afford to switch servers – don’t think this is an effective answer to the problem.

Switching servers absolutely is an effective answer to this problem. As others have said, this sounds like a social issue rather than a technology issue for devs to solve and I suspect that you have acquired a certain kind of reputation on your current server that can only be gotten rid of by a fresh start somewhere else.

Find a deaf-friendly WvW guild on another server that doesn’t require you to be on TS. You can always find players and guilds willing to help with transfer costs and I bet we could even start up a collection as a WvW community to help you with that cost, assuming you are able to find a server/guild willing to take you in.

3. Don’t want cmdr tag, don’t want to lead, don’t have money for it.

11. I paid the same as everyone else.

I would just like to point out that these two points are contradictory.

Since the Catmander tags have been kindly given to us, Can we please have Skull tags for Halloween?

YOU CAN TAKE MY GEMS>

Or better yet you can only get them by capturing Necro Tower on DBL. There he sells a Skeletal Mini and Skull tag

PLEASE

Your friendly neighborhood necro,
