I believe servers are divided in different regions for a reason, i don’t see why i or any other european player should have to put up with hour long queues in the middle
of the night, just because people from the states prefer to play on our servers, for whatever reason. I’m european and it has never crossed my mind playing on american servers, why would i? To play against empty servers? Sorry i don’t see the fun in it.
When european people have to wait hours in queue (03:40 now, Desolation server), then you should consider bringing some changes. After all, this is a european server.
Community has made you aware of certain issues countless times already, yet some major issues have not been resolved, after 6 weeks + beta. So make this half a year (27th of april if im not mistaken, most of these problems have already occurred back then).
Its issues that have major impact on PvP, and since this is a PvP centered game it would be pleasant if you dealt with them as soon as possible.
While the problem with invisible enemies is one that isnt easily fixable, others like class balance certainly are.
Mind if i ask why thief class is above all others? Glass cannon spec kills anything in seconds, very much uncounterable due to their high damage output and abilities to vanish from sight and fight when they wish to, if one knows how to play. Nerfing pistol dmg by 15% while the problems are somewhere else doesnt help.
Why are Mesmers (i play one) able to cast abilities through walls? I can spawn Phantasms on players that arnt even in line of sight.
Allowing your entire raid to use portals and spawn in the middle of your enemies raid, while being invisible and having the surprise effect on your side is just crying for a fix. Limit the amout of players being able to acccess the portal please.
Why are an Elementalists healing spells limited to a 100-400 range, PvP is all about movement, i cannot always stand close to my ele just to receive minor healing while i take 3 times more dmg from my enemy because i make an easy target due to the need of being next to my healer.
Environment, (for example) Panglos Mine defended by a decent amount of players and multiple sieges is bascially impossible to take over, unless you send your zerg there and mesmer it. Play first bracket where people actually play like that and see for yourself if you dont believe it.
Night capping – You say its part of the game. Well what about the people that are being a victim of this – we spend much time/effort/gold over the day upgrading and holding bases, just to see it all destroyed when we log in the morning after. When we play at night outnumbered 1to10 we get zerged down whenever we try to assault anything. Not exactly fair.
Supply theft – There are players that transfer on the ‘enemies’ server just waste their supplies, standing around in their keeps and taking supplies, building sieges so they empty that bases resources. How BAD is that, how can you allow that? This isnt just below the belt, this is even lower. People like that should have no place in this game, please rethink your point of view.
I play alot and all i do is PvP, these are a few of the issues i have come across and there are many more. I think i speak for many people when i ask you to fix things like that as soon as possible. Thank you.
Yes why wasnt this changed yet, 8-12 people on my server constantly farming centaur events there.
You ask them to at least take back the nearby camp (a 2-3 min job) in the south between the events but they prefer to stand around afk until the next event starts.
Taking up valuable player spots indeed, please do something about this.
If they have way more players at night, you may just have more players during the day too.
How do we have more players at day by your logic? Its canadians playing at night as far as i understood and french europeans at day. At best, we are as many players as they are, we do not have more players than them at any time.
If you think u are the strongest force in Europe at prime time you will be in for a supprise next week.
Listen, i did not make this post to brag or anything, im just one of them players who spend much time and money gaining and holding bases, and its quite frustrating seeing everything gone to hell when you log in the next day, because of night capping.
Im talking facts, so please be that fair and talk facts too, instead of making random statements, thanks you.
Further more, being strongest force in the 1st bracket at peak time (in europe) is fact, you cant argue with that. Its nothing to be proud of, im just 1 out of a thousand players, if i wasnt there it wouldnt make a differene, i just happen to play there.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but being 3rd all week and deciding to nightcap on friday to become second (by 6k points only) isn’t making you the best server in EU.
I dont get what you mean by night capping on friday, the reset took place at 2 am, there was barely time to ‘night cap’, all 3 servers were still active until then.
Yes, we were listed 3rd for some days because we scored like 30 points all nights, all week. However, people pulled themselves together the last 2 days and made up for that at day/evening.
Our point income at day/evening has always been high and stable.

Lag matters, i would never play on NA servers due to this. Maybe it doesnt matter as much in wvw as it does in 5vs5 machtes but im sure it has some impact.
Anyhow, im not going to discuss this matter much more, i think we are drifting away from the actual discussion.
Americans have delay when playing on EU servers, i highly doubt they would like to play there. It is beyond me why the french speaking part of canada plays on vizunah in first place, when they certainly have less delay on NA servers.
Post facts please, because i did (which is recorded by arena.net). And B. how absurd is that, recruiting people that can ‘counter at all times’.
‘Hello, we are recruiting players that play all night long so we can compete with certain other servers?’
Keep your criticism constructive please.

Point income of 310 points (average) in the evening this week (check your records if you doubt), yet we still rank 2nd because of night capping. YES i have read your post, and all i can say about it is – find a proper solution.
It can not be that the best server in europe gets screwed over by a certain french server gaining point advantage only because they have french speaking allies in different time zones.
When i log on in the morning we have a point income of 30 points or something, enemies camping our spawn with siege weapons. In the evening we totally dominate them, scoring 300+ points. Still we rank 2nd at the end of the week.
We would like to have A. a proper ranking that reflects a servers accomplishments (night capping isnt one) and B. face different servers too, some that also play strong in the evenings.
Looking forward to a solution, regards from shiverpeaks.
