Guild Wars 2

With the current Seafarer logic, Piken should hate Riverside for “teaming” up with SFR and next match up only focus them and “team” up with other server to show them “revenge” and how Piken “felt”. As I see here nobody is complaining about Viz that was the server that chose to focus Seafarer like Seafarer focuses Piken now. Instead it’s the second server that took advantage of the situation that is getting the “revenge” cause Seafarer know they can’t beat Vizunah and get the revenge they truely want. They are just really hurt and angry cause Vizunah made them come last and they can’t take revenge on Viz so they want to take revenge on Piken.
It would be really sad if Piken had such a community like that and would only focus Riverside next time they meet and show them how “Piken” felt which actually had fun fighting Riverside.

Anet had to build and test the leaderboard system from scratch, an external site borrowing data from the leaderboards and offering a few additional functions is hardly amazing. I expect these features will be implemented soon in the main page.

After all this time, yes they did make the leaderboard. My question is, seeing as Arena said in a post here that LATER it will contain search function and all that. The design is really poor, it got no features, but this leaderboard got everything so much better. Something so easy to make yet they can’t release it?

After nearly a year leaderboards is released hurray for that, but its poorly made, lacks features. How come they couldn’t contain any of this things that other sites and people make.

“Soon” “when its ready” Its going extremely slow with everything and when they first put it out, it contains basically nothing, they just put it out for the sake of putting it out.

The funny thing is that this site, does this stuff in no time, I think Arena Net should hire them, they get outclassed in design, functions and speed!

Just want to put it out there to people who aren’t already aware, this site is the best and prettiest imo AND it got features that Arena Net haven’t released yet such as a search function, what place on your server your on and more.

I think this site deserves some credit aswell! It also have WvW and stuff also. Check it out!!

GOOD LUCK

(I did not make this site or apart of it in any way)

Incase people forgot this thread.

The Community has spoken, will Arena Net answer and will they do it.

It’s not about doging the queue, which is fine, it’s about people who leaves games as they have started which in pretty much any mmo got a penalty for leaving the game

I wouldn’t say that. I’ve had a HUGE problem with people just not joining the games. And as suggested above, taking the Dota 2 approach is EXACTLY what needs to happen. You can’t control dodging the queue/logging off while in queue, and you shouldn’t have to. If a game is going to start lopsided, it shouldn’t start at all.

Accepting a game should work just like dota 2. When the match is ready, there shouldn’t be a ‘join match’ button, it should be ‘accept’. You don’t actually ‘start’ the game and load into the map until all players accept, otherwise you get put back in the pool. This way you only start games when all 10 players are present, and you don’t have to go through the hassle of loading into a game that isn’t going to happen.

Yes I agree, get a accept button, however my problem is with people leaving when the game started that causes problem for the team and dont get any penalty for doing so.

you think? of course that is one of the problems, the other is people joining and seeing they are on a full pug and facing a full premade and quitting, or seeing they are on a 5v4 and quitting, making it 5v3. And since you don’t punish them what do they lose? the invisible rating they don’t care about? They log-off for 10 mins avoid a spawn camp stomping then log back in.

Learn from Rift, if you get DC’d their system gives you short amount of time to re-boot/log back in and puts you in the same warfront you were in. If you don’t log back in quickly it fills the spot with a new player and when that person eventually does log back in they have a 30-min deserter debuff and can’t queue for pvp. I’m guessing just another thing your system isn’t built to do.

If someone is constantly DC’ing due to crappy ISP or quitting without leaving their roster they should be punished and stick to hotjoin rather than making 4 people suffer a curb stomping 5v4 matchup.

The sad thing is this has been an issue basically since release and doesn’t sound like you have any fixes in the works. Like i said in another thread this is something Rift did a hotfix for shortly after release. And I only use Rift as an example because it was one of the more recently released mmos. pretty much every other mmo pvp also has quitter debuffs/penalties.

The two problems deserve different solutions. If a player is in queue for a bit, but needs to log off to do something else, that player shouldn’t be punished because they didn’t leave the roster first. This is a completely fixable problem. Punishing people who knowingly dodge is a much more difficult problem.

It’s not about doging the queue, which is fine, it’s about people who leaves games as they have started which in pretty much any mmo got a penalty for leaving the game. This is something they also had on release. GW2 is atm doing the exact same mistake SWTOR did, not giving us the basic things we want and delay it for more than a half year and when it’s finally there all the people left the game and those who stay are ok with changes. PvE parts may be ready, but I don’t feel like the years of work into GW2 was well thought around pvp seeing it only had hotjoin and a glory/gear system at release + free tournament and a half year later, we aren’t any further.

I had a break for a few months and honestly can’t say there is any of the new "esport features here left, only changed things that were several times. Thought unlike Bioware, your a much better company that talks alot with the community, it just takes to long and I still don’t get how there could be no duel/trade system at launch and still isn’t. If you do read this, don’t take offense, you got the right ideas, but this is going to slow and as a hardcore gamer, don’t like to be kept waiting. If Arena Net dealt with spvp quicker, we would have a much bigger playerbase than there is now sadly.
Solo/duo queue, read the poll thread, the pvpers have spoken, we want it, we need it now, not in another 6 months.

Seeing as there isn’t a separate Queue, which is a shame, how will players who own and stomp everything with their team being able to do anything solo if they get so good rating that if they ever solo they will be matched up solo against other teams. I don’t see how I can as a solo player and team player can ever get matched right.

If Im wrong, which I might be, why would there be any purpose to play solo as by the system now, it punishes you to play solo, because you will the more skilled you are get matched against premades.

Without a Solo queue mechanic which is most of your playerbase, which in my opinion, is more important than team, since the lack of E-Sport features. Just look at LoL, if there weren’t a solo queue system and it was like your introducing now, I would get sick of getting to play full teams.

I don’t wanna wait another month for knowing what you plan to do the next 2 months ahead then release another map…

And last Question, is there nothing more to pvp, no real scoreboards, nothing to look at, just a hidden rating? Is it that your not capable of making one or does is really take a year to make this, the QP Board was really bad, we all know you can do better..

This topic is a troll !

With elementaliste you can make too +100K
5 fire .

with scenar situation .

pics or didden happen.

I understand the frustration that Warrior can crit 84k, I feel with you. Clearly we need to nerf Warriors with 70% damage. Just game breaking…

84k dmg in 1 hit, nerf warriors! <Discuss>

I was hoping for a response to Arena Net, they can’t just ignore all these important mechanics, having these will make the game so much better and I know this is what the game needs and everyone wants it. You don’t wanna be like swtor adding ranked half year after the game came out. Hope this post won’t vanish like nobody ever cared, would be a shame

Orzwark.2431:

Also add a few sentences with “unacceptable” in all caps. And threaten to cancel your subscription. I AM A TROLL

First of all, I write this because I want GW2 to get this, second, there is no sub, and this game relies on keeping their players, sad to see PvP players leave everyday. If I didn’t care I wouldn’t waste my time to write all this to Arena Net.

As much as I wished GW2 would have awesome PvP and E-Sport Features, It’s a huge lack.
It have taken to long time and there is still missing vital features like.
- Rating/Ranking, QP is just silly- Time spent farming QP is not skill or doesn’t tell where you actually stand.
- Solo Queueing and Group Queuing for tournaments, it got to be there. Ranked/unranked, you want your pvpers to focus about doing tournaments and learning how to play instead of mashing 8vs8 in hot-join which you learn nothing in basically.
- So long time no spectate mode yet still said it would be there.
- The current game mode, ONLY one game mode which encourage having bunkers.
- Dueling, how can you not have this in yet or even considered it. If you tried to prevent it, it’s stupid because people already doing it, but they have to join an empty server.
- Seriously, for WvWvW and SPvP leaderboards are the worst Ive seen, we all know you can do better and why make fans having to make it for you, in WvW this works because players can update scores on servers, but with YOUR system in SPvP with QP they can’t, they must do everything manually because you need to update it yourself. Creds to Millenium for WvW leaderboards tho, its really good.
- As mentioned, only one game mode, need more and different, added a new map is not the solution, different game modes that don’t involve standing on a point
- Deathmatch/Arena, 2vs2,3vs3 and so on, people would love that with rating, those who don’t like it, simply ignore it and do what you like?
- Forums are terrible, would much more like a forum like you have on gw1.
- You need to get interest back to pvpers, atm you are hiding giving us pointless maps and fluff, we don’t need that, your focus on what is needed for this game is very bad, how could you make a new map over having all above.
- Tournaments, you need to shout out to crowd and start making these tournaments and give info to capture viewers.
- Make the game attractive to viewers and streaming, GW2 just gets lower on the list everyday.
- Custom PvP matches and all that.

I quit the game a few weeks ago and I would love to come back, but without what I mentioned above which all should have been there from the start I don’t see any further success in gw2, sad to see good and popular streamers leave.

To me there is no reason to turn back, unless you start to communicate and give us what everyone is crying about.

Thought you don’t wanna give false promises, if you can’t promise any of this, its Good Bye to any E-Sport feature and seeing your game turn into casual PvE game like other mmos.

I really wished this game would live up to what was expected, waited for this game for years and I wasn’t dissapointed when it came out or the responses from Arena Net on forum, but after months I lost faith in PvP things that “were” to come.

TL;DR
Game Modes, ranking, communication, E-Sport Features, leaderboards needs to come ASAP!

EDIT: Remove Downed state, it doesn’t belong in competitive PvP and seeing some are far superior than others, it’s just silly.

nice
…………..

The question is in the tittle. I know Millenium FR had one, that was really nice, but sadly it is down and is hard to check how your and others server is doing. is arena net going to have something similar to that or have someone else done it?

Quite Funny to see Seafarer’s Rest owning whole Blacktide borderland, while Blacktide owning whole Seafarer’s Rest borderland

KratosAngel.7289:

Darki, you don’t understand. The nerf on phantasms is not such a big deal. The nerf to Chaos Storm is already much more. Now think of the rest : we still have SO MUCH bugs to be fixed, never fixed, while the nerfing hammer crushes the mesmer.
And think of the phantasms in PVE : 1 shot by any AOE, and then you still have to wait even longer to respawn it … cool, given that our personnal damage output is weak.
So you see, the issue is not just a matter of a few seconds, it’s an accumulation of bugs, easily killed phantasms and “slight” nerfs …
Unless they plan to boost something else, yeah, this is quite a big nerf …

You can have chaos storm on a 28 sec cd, not much difference from what is was before. No actual nerf was done to it other than a slighly longer CD.

KratosAngel.7289:

When I saw this, juste one word : OMFG.
What a crap update. Just what exactly is the purpose of this ? Nerfing, hammering the mesmer so bad that EVERYONE rerolls so we can delete the class ? Good, it’s on a good way for it.
Seriously, WTF, mesmers we already weak and more precisely very hard to play in PVE, it makes things even worse !
Ok, it might have been necessary for PVP but for the love of god, before burying alive the mesmer in PVE for PVP sake, just separate PVE and PVP omg, leave the PVE players alone and let them be useful and TRY to be efficient in dungeons …
This update defintely sucks and, even though I love playing mesmer, I think I’ll reroll a class that is not nerfed to oblivion …

Must be end of the world for you, if some seconds cd gonna make you reroll a class then rofl.

I love how everyone is overreacting like this change was a big nerf, but really it isn’t. Maybe start to rethink instead of QQing about something that had a way to short CD before. Every phanstasm skill can be lowered twice, so by 40% less cd.

Yes I play mesmer and have been in nerfs and boosts from betas. FOTMers go reroll, no love for the class, just want the OPness which they still are.

Gotta laugh at all the people complaining, myself played Mesmer since first beta and chose this class. Mesmers needed this nerf and obviously there are alot of players not knowing how OP those phanstasm are and they still are. Just a longer CD.

I’m glad this change came so the FOTM storm can move to another class. Going from barely any mesmer played till seeing 2 mesmer in every single TPvP.

And Greatsword didn’t get nerfed at all. I hope they nerf it equal to Staff.
