Guild Wars 2

Like I said, it already exists. You can Q with 4 people and get 1 as a pug, this has always existed in free tournaments, and now all tournaments are free, therefore it exists in all tournaments.

The " new " MMR system adjusts for it as well, but the reason people are crying and saying they’re playing premades is becuase the MMR is brand new and fresh, the system hasn’t adjusted to your skill level yet, so obviously you’re going to play people with skewed results.

Patience.

I think its needed.
But really it should be solo/duo Q. That way you can Q up with one friend, even if you dont have an entire team.

This already exists.

It should be for everyone. And patience is a virtue, ranting on the forums day in and day out is not going to make the dev’s want to change the game more, it’s only going to show them that the community they are dealing with is childish and will turn into an angry mob, making their job more difficult.

The idea is good. I think all of us, if not most us, would like a visual rating as well as a ladder. Custom arenas also would be great, along with spectator mode.

BUT

All of this has been said before. It’s all on the " To Do " list. The only reason it hasn’t been done sooner is becuase things like MMR needed to be done first. Can’t have any sort of ranking system without properly placing people against others of equal skill. And now we have MMR.

I appreciate the post and the lack of screaming, QQ, or otherwise flaming. People need to change their mentality and realize that anything good takes time and won’t be instant.

I also love this game, and would love to see said proposed changes.

as much as im sure any thief in the world would love it, and i personally don’t have anything against it, just take a look at the forums and count how many " lol thieves " or " I hate thieves" threads there are complaining about thieves.

Sadly any change to a thief that’s not a nerf is going to be cried about for decades to come.

20 bucks says the engineer just rallied off of someone else dieng. Perhaps a turret he had somewhere else. lawl.

I think so too.

And all of this is if the Engineer uses the Elixir R. I’d like to remind people that it doesn’t have much pulses, a bit of damage will screw his ability to rez himself, getting him out of the circle will obviously work aswell.

Literally if you damage an engineer for even 2 seconds, he won’t get the rez off. It’s not that hard, and I lol at anyone who complains about elixir R

I mean things are getting better, slowly, but surely. I think the changes that were made will help, but we definitely don’t need to be telling people to play 3 rounds again, not yet, at least.

Please god no. We went to 1 round tourny’s for a reason, there’s no way any competitive team will want to purposely go back to a 3 round for the sake of kids who want to solo Q.

Why not? If all the strongest teams are in the 3round que then why wouldnt you as a competitive team strive to play versus us?

Let me just say that NA and EU are totally different.

I can count on one hand the number of good teams in NA, maybe even just on my first 3 fingers. It was hard enough to get a Q pop in 3 round tournys, why would anyone want to go back to that? Using a 1 round system the rewards are quicker ( not better, quicker, more throughput so to say), The q’s are quicker, and you adjustability is better.

What I mean by that, is lets say we pick up someone who is just trash. Awful, but we win anyways, we can throw him out after the game and replace him. In a 3 round tourny we have to deal with him for the next 2 rounds. ( this isnt a big deal , just a random thought to add to the argument :P )

But the biggest thing for me is Q times. Nobody wants to wait to play. But I feel maybe a weekly 3 round tourny like what was originally intended would be pretty nice.

Please god no. We went to 1 round tourny’s for a reason, there’s no way any competitive team will want to purposely go back to a 3 round for the sake of kids who want to solo Q.

im the best engi NA. enough said.

you can use the " look back " function if that works for you, but most players who move with their mouse tend to just also swivel around their cameras to get kind of “peripheral” views so to say, taking mental snapshots as they pivot around.

I re-keybound the f1-4 to Shift 1-4, 1-5 stays the same, Then everything to the right of my health, ( 6-0) is on my naga, heal is 2, utilities are 3,4,5 and elite is 6.

Alot of my friends say that makes it harder having to use 2 different hands for abilities but it makes all the sense in the world to me, so personal preference I suppose. Oh and f1 re-keybound to call target.

Hey man, very interested. Shot you an email at the above mentioned address, hope to hear from you soon.

Cheers.

I am on Anvil Rock atm, not that server matters, just figured I’d throw that in there.

Sounds perfect.

I am more than happy to help form a team between all of us. I play a lot of different rolls ankittenired of just theorycrafting + hotjoin…not all that fun anymore. I am on the server Anvil Rock, but with guesting we won’t have any issues. I don’t know if any of you are attached to a current guild but I am not and would be more than happy to form one to help build a competent and active team for us.

EDIT: When I say help form a team I in no way mean “be a leader” lol. Without players who are willing to dedicate time to learning their classes, learn from the many losses that will come, and actually COMMIT and stick with a team nothing will ever happen. Needs to be a cooperative effort.

No worries, leadership isnt just given its earned. But a guild to join would help seperate those who are interested from those who are not

Well seems there’s alot of people in this thread who all want a team, but nobody who wants to start one, ha.

Literally everyone just pugs, and the few teams that are out there that are established have no sort of recruitment process, or need for one even. Pugging gets old, somebody pick me up yo

the only issue with this, and the 1v1 paid idea is the rewards. While it is great that many new players are getting into paids that previously did not do paids, look at your leaderboards. With reduced rewards, some players may never see the light of day concerning that leaderboard, because of the reduced QP, therefore if i wanna get in the top 100 ( currently like 90 something for the dead last spot) I gotta win 90 games in this 1v1 format. A matchmaking system would be much better off, less of a grind.
