Guild Wars 2

Making a push for Silver.

http://youtu.be/SowxsXTTDo4

I dunno about the minute auto respawn timer.

But i would want a shorter Inactive timer specially for WvW borderlands.
Like 5 minutes of Inactive gameplay would boot you out.

Me and my guild had this idea, when enemies are defeated. Their names appear Grey. With all the AOE spam going on it will be easier to see how many you have left in the fight.

Agreed. More Game Modes PLease.

Team Deathmatch. – One of the most popular game modes from nearly every FPS game.

In WvW, i know guys that just runs around looking for a group to fight. But thats a whole different Story #GvG

I dont think you guys understand my posts. The “Hot Join” method of joining and doing pvp is still there, but revamped to reflect tournaments. With increased rewards and competition.

Where anet went wrong is restricting the game type to capture points. We are humans, its in our very being to WANT and look for change.

Thats why i suggested the Team Deathmatch 8v8. A change from the Capture Points. Its not Esports. Its not For you to spectate and learn how to play capture points., Its for you to go in pew pew, and have some fun.

And i agree on that, Getting exp for pvp.
PVE players do wvw, because the rewards in wvw tie in with pve, they get loot, gold and exp.
PvP can do the same, give glory, rank points, and exp. It would be nice but its not on the top of my lists.

Revamp Hot Join To Reflect Tournaments.
8v8 Team Deathmatch – because thats what the community wants.
Increased PvP rewards – Glory Keys.

Read my above posts if your losts.

daydream.2938:

For gods sake , give us a way to make gold in spvp. I am tired of being broke compared to my pve friends because I choose to do something else.

Too right you are, The bridge between PvE and PVP in guild wars 1 was the zaishen keys.

I made a suggestion months ago about implementing a similar feature. Basicaly use glory to buy these keys to open this Massive chests that has a chance of giving anything from a super rare skin, precursors, dyes. RNG was in guild wars 1, its just that it was implement alot better there.

I called them Glory Keys and Glory Chests.
The Glory Keys can obviously be sold for gold on the trading post. So people who dont pvp can have access to the rare skins that come from the chests, and pvpers then have an economy for themselves where they can pvp and spend say 5k glory getting a Key, or selling it for …5gold.

Along with Glory your earned them from also winning in tournaments. So you would do a tournie, win and get x amount of keys. Because you deserve it.

#PvpRewards
#Gw2

Same maps, Team Deathmatch type games, with strong Side Objectives. This adds a new fun game type to PvP. The rewards may not be as huge as 5v5 Competitve play, whats rewarding is when you land that Earthshaker on on a guy thats about to Secure the Sky Hammer just before the orb timer runs out. Whats rewarding is that you can just join in the game melt some faces and let of some steam. Whats rewarding is the amount of fun i just had in this new fast paced, unstructured game type.

You may like it you may not like it. I Just want another game type apart from Capture Points. Its boring, its stale, its just not as fun as Arena net makes it out to be.

Take my ideas, tweak them, call it Heroes Ascent.(because it could be)

In case Anet wants more ideas.
You open the PvP browser. (New UI, like how the achievements got a new UI, you did it for PvE now do it PvP)
You See Buttons, Enter 5v5 Battle, Enter 8v8 Battle, Browse Matches (To Spectate, Join A Specific Match, Custom Arena). Or maybe even a Spectate button to Spectate a random match up. Im not a UI designer make it look pretty :P

So revamping the Current Hot Join System. To the old Random Arenas from Guild Wars 1 Style of Joining, Playing, Winning , Reward, Compete.
Solved the unhealthy hotjoin zerg.
Solved Rewards.
Creates A better PvP Community.
More Reason to Get Custom Arena Tokens, More game options.

[MY THEORY] – More fun=WIN
Instead of 8v8/10v0.
Have 8v8/10v10 TeamDeathmatch – Because we,your players want it( with Side Objectives)

Ok The Deets.
Am talking No capture points, low respawn timers, all out kill each other for points, Map control, and more points. Oh yeh and fun.
On each map as we know has Side Objectives. Make these the side objectives, Map Mechanics. With these map mechanics you use them to either gain a great lead in getting kills for your team, Or Catching up to the other team. Holding/Capturing them is where The TEAM, and Death Match comes into play.

Battle of Kyhlo – The map mechanic on Kyhlo is the the Trebuchet(TreeBucket). With the trebuchet, you can use it to get vast amounts of kills for your team. With an added Buff to the treb, it now instantly puts you in the downed state, and from downed to defeated when you are hit by it. The only difference between it and the sky hammer is that you can Dodge it.The treb can be destroyed and repaired as usual, But remember its a Team Deathmatch. Going to kill the treb might be trouble for you. Since the guy using it might have protection from another player, same for the guy running the repair kit.

Forest of Niflhel – The Map mechanic on Forest are the Chieftain Utahein and Svanir. We all have tried to kill one of them before and got hit hard or even killed by them. When the Two NPCs appear each team has chance to Tame that creature(last hit by the team). Taming the creature, it becomes friendly to their team and killing all enemys for a period of time(30-60 seconds) Kills go to your team.
Instead of the player getting their stats buffed, its the NPC that gets the buff, making it hit harder, heal, take less dmg(like the PvE frenzy on abominations in cursed shore). What makes it even more interesting is when a team manages to steal the other teams NPC, that team can use then use that to secure victory or catch up from a huge point deficit(if the NPC makes any kills).

Legacy of the Foefire – On this map the Map mechanic is the Lord. Dont change a thing, keep it as it is. Reason why is because it creates a sense of push or pull. Your team can either pull the enemy team into your base to come kill the lord. Rack up points for your team as they attempt to take the lords life. Or you can push straight into their base doing the same thing, split into two teams and attack from both gates, or pick of people running around trying to split. Killing the lord will give your team a great boost in points, winning the game if you already secured 350.

Raid on the Capricorn – The Map mechanics, are the Sharks, and the Cannon….im lost here…Anet can figure it out.

Skyhammer – The Map mechanic for this is the Sky hammer,
To make things interesting. Orbs(lightening Orbs) Spawn at A and C, Bring the both to the Sky Hammer portal to activate it for your team. Then anyone on your team can use the hammer for 30-60 seconds. After which it will need a new power source.(More Orb Runs)
This becomes interesting because, whichever team places to first Lighting Orb into the the Sky Hammer Lightening Orb Holder Thingy(Im a Norn, i dont know asuran tech), that team then has 60 Seconds to retrieve the second one, other wise it resets. This creates team work, in running the orbs, and also preventing the other team from getting the orb. (Orb Mechanics take of the same mechanics as the one in Spirit Watch)

Spirit Watch – The Map mechanic here is the Orb of Ascension, since this is very Norn themed, with the spirits of the wild, keep it that way.
The capture points are turned off but the animal shrines are still there, and so is the orb. When you run the orb to a specfic point. This will give your team a buff depending on what animal you run it to.
For example.
Blessing Of Bear- would give you, Vitality, Toughness and Power, For 30seconds
Blessing Of Raven – Would give Toughness, Condition dmg, Precision, For 30 seconds
Blessing Of Wolf – Would give Critical Damage, Healing Power, Vitality For 30 seconds.
Just examples. The buffs will last for 30 seconds, You can only have 1 buff at a time, since the orb wont reset for another 30 seconds after its been Ascended.

Temple of the Silent Storm – The Map Mechanics are are Perfect For Team Deathmactches. Keep em as they are. With slight adjustments.
Meditation of Ferocity – This will award +3pts per kill. They both stack
Meditation of Stillness – This Will Award Double Points Per Kill
Meditation of Tranquility – Becomes Defensive. Not allowing The enemy team to get points when they make a kill. For A Small Period of time. Totaly Turning the tide of the fight. Very Powerful Indeed.

Hmph( SIGH)

I’m here reading all these Great suggestions,s drooling slightly, wide eyed with a grin. Just showing how thirsty i am for a change.

But I Lost Hope back in July, shes wondering around the Mist somewhere. Its not the first time stuff like this has been suggested. Clearly Arena Net has no time to even say, “Hey i want that in our game it sounds awesome, gimmie 6-9months, and you will see results”. Or “ill speak to so and so Dev about this idea, and see what they think”
I have a better chance of having another child in the 9 months before i see results.

Lets get Down with the Deets anyway, because i still have Love for the game even though Hope is lost.

1. Remove Hotjoin.

Removing Hot join and replacing it with The “Random Arenas” type of queuing.
5v5 because thats what people play in Tournaments. Also bringing Meta to this game type.

The rewards for this Random Join, would be obviously Rank/Glory, the usual.
When you lose. You get kicked to Heart Of The Mist. – Join again for another Random Team

Since the match carries on if you win, Your (random)team gets reward more,the more they win.
If your team wins, this is where it gets interesting. More rewards per win/round. So lets say you and your Random Team won 10 rounds. They get, lets say 3 times more glory/rank. – Increasing every 3 rounds. So 1.5x at Round 3, 2x at round 6, 3x at round 9..etc With a cap at probably 25 rounds.

This will give rank a meaning again. Meaning that high ranked guy has won alot(random Join or Tournaments, either way you won alot to get that high). Instead of the current (That high ranked guy Farmed Alot).
On top of all of that good stuff, since the PvP comunity is so amazing, that team that just won 10 rounds, they can then easily contact each other and team up for tournaments since they did so well together. Doing so using the PvP Browser Recently Played, Another section in the UI can show your recent matches and who played with/against you. (With Stats showing how well you did. In tearms of Kills, caps, objectives)

You get rank/glory on a percentage based on your rank, Not a set amount When you WIN. Just like how PVE awards EXP on a percentage based on your level. Meaning Winning in this New Random Join means more rewards hence people will actually capture and hold the points to secure victory for their team.

MonMalthias.4763:

I’ll lead off with the transcript part in question I’m talking about:

The elephant in the room – League of Legends – has done this with aplomb. Their LoL patch previews garner millions of views each regarding changes that could affect champions and their lane matchups, always with an explanation as to why. As if the video is not enough – there are preview patch notes with detailed explanations on each and every change.

Wow, Just…WOW.

Remind me why am i playing Guild Wars 2 Again….
“Oh yeh Dragons. I like Slaying them so much omg. Dragons are gonna burn us all” [/sarcasm]

This is what They(Anet) do for PVE. Where as League of Legends. A Dominant E-SPort Game, Does the for their patch notes. For PvP.

I suggested this, It Got ignored, along with many other suggestions.

I give up on this game.

back in guild wars 1, you could do /rank[space]1/2/3 and it will do the 1st second or third emote.
so when you do /rank 1, you get the deer. even if you passed it.

there is no such thing in gw2.

I would like to suggest the addition of a World Rank Emote. The world rank emote would allow players to show of their WvW ranks by simply typing in “/wrank” in chat.

The reason behind this is to give people further incentive to do stuff in wvw. The majority of the Gw2 players are like skritt, they like shiny things. So adding a shiny emote to the WvW Ranks would entice players in doing wvw more, and also a way of showing of their high ranks that they worked so hard for.

During the first stages of Spvp, there was no rank emotes. But after the addition of the rank emotes the pvp community got a little more attention. People wanted Shiny new rank finishers, and the shiny /rank emote, so they played hours and hours to get them.
This was great, but you cant do “/rank” in WvW.

Just like the rank emotes in Guild Wars 1, “/zrank, /rank, /ladder” They all gave players another reason to do either heroes ascent, GvG or open zaishen chest. If players aren’t super competitive, or care about any other rewards, they will want a shiny emote. I remember doing Hereos ascent just to get the Wolf Emote and howl at people. In Guild Wars 2 right now am working on getting my Tiger Emote, i dont Spvp often, nor do i care about tourney, i just like that tiger emote and i will have it soon to /rank people in lions arch ( or to Show of my “kitten” as others call it)

Currently there isn’t a way of letting others know off your WvW rank, The World Rank Emote would be perfect. Players that have ranked up really high feels great that they have an awesome looking emote to go with their rank, players that hasn’t, now have something to work towards and a good reason to raise their wvw rank further.

The WvW rank currently reminds of the ziashen emotes, with bronze, silver and gold animations for different ranks.

So I was thinking there could be a new emote every 3 Titles.

Starting from Assaulter, the first world rank.

Rank 5 Assaulter – Rank 29 scout (This can be like a sword or something)
Rank 30 Solider – Rank 59 Footman ( Another shiny Weapon…Sword/Shield…)
Rank 60 Knight – Rank 89 Colonel (A new shiny Emote)
Rank 90 General – Legend 149 (….Awesomeness)

Once you hit Bronze invader, the emotes have new bronze animations.

Rank 150 Bronze Assaulter – Rank 299 Bronze Scout ( Same as Assaulter-scout rank But Shinier, plated with Bronze

Rank 300 Bronze Solider – Rank 389 Footman ( Again shinier plated with Bronze)

Rank 390 Bronze Knight – Rank 479 Bronze Colonel (shinier plated with Bronze)

Rank 480 General – Legend 600 (…. Bronze Awesomeness)

The Silver and Gold Titles can be the same with new effects and plated with silver/gold.

These emotes will go well along with the Ridiculously long WvW titles….so when you see a player that has the Silver Legend Emote and Ultimate Dominator Title, you know where hes been spending his time over the years of playing Guild Wars 2.

Thanks for reading.

The mechanics are somewhat similar to Gw1 style of pvp.

People have been screaming their lungs out to bring back Gw1 style GvG and HA, back into Guild Wars 2.
At This point am thinking its some kind of DLC, or Anet Doesn’t give two kittens about what people want.

I second this idea. The game right now doesnt realy have much to do and this would be a nice addition.
Right Now, Its Either

PvE: Kill dragons,Run Dungeons,Cof1Farm,Personal Story,Jumping Puzzles, Legendary Grind.

WvW : Run as a zerg, Run as a organised guild zerg, roam around capping sentries and camps.

sPvP: …….Cap points/Hold Points

Each mode doesn’t have much to offer, once you’ve done them all. That type of game play just becomes repetitive and boring.

I was hoping to see Emotes in “Devon Carver on the Future of World vs. World” Post…Please Add Some Emotes.

majos.8503:

This would be amazing, i hope Anet hear this suggestion!

Hoping and praying gets us no where. Tell your friends that do WvW, all come post their views on this. The more voices, the louder we are.
We want emotes !. “When Do we want it” NOW !

Currently there isnt a way of seeing the ranks of players on your server, in spvp the only way to see other player’s ranks is by them doing the /rank emote then you have a general idea of what rank they are, or finish a match which shows everyone’s rank within that match.

Started after the Last Stand patch. Before that everything was great.

Fix It, Fix It,Fix It, Fix It, Fix It !

I’ve been having the same problem in wvw. My internet connection is fine, my PC is way more than compatible.

On every boderlands, i rubber band and get crazy lag spikes. Then eventually DC during big fights. Sometimes a blue screen.

This started happening after The Last Stand patch.

Lol that’s not a blob it’s a bunch of organised guild groups.

The game is unplayable with all these lag spikes. I really want to play. But the game isnt allowing me.

Fix It Anet. FIX IT !

Maybe [Yak] can trade it for our soon to be capped garrison :P

I dont get it, Yaks cant take and hold everything all the time.

The Borderlands had a que, that means there were more than enough people on the map to defend it. I heard there was four commanders…? ?

You guys need to Get on TS, get your kitten together and Get Good.

#YoloSwaggTrain

Had lots of fun farming badges in Garrison for two hours, with Magic Find Banners and Ommnom Berry Bars.

Thank you Far Shiverpeaks And Aurora Glade.
Same tomorrow, After the patch….Boost our WvW Rank.

KinkyWarrior.1879:

Well my vacation on Piken has ended and I must say, was one hell of a fun week indeed A call out to all the awesome people I met and who welcomed me despite mah heritage! (Vayle the Eternal, Calem Silvermist, Entirety of Second Law [Scnd], Rahkesh and NNF <3) Now, to meet you all once more upon teh battle field!

Tired of getting Slaughtered by Gandara ? I dont blame you coming back. At least you dont get farmed :P

Awesome badge farming in Augury Rock garrison last night. We deliberately left the gates and walls down so pikes and augury can fight so we could kill them both.
Thnx guys your great, Same time Tomorrow?

And I actually wasn’t trolling. I wanted to play with xxx I like the way they roll. I’ve been a commander for less than a week now so I don’t see how i am experienced.
It may seem like I was trolling them but I wasn’t, they were at hills with south gate open we asked for a portal inside so we could come help, they ignored us.
We ran inside. And they stood on top of the walls and watched at the piken zerg wiped us. Then they left the keep.
Yea, whose helping Gandara?

The guild bought me commander so they can see where I am as their main pusher, but
I’ve took it upon my self to be an actual commander and I intend to be a dam good one at that, with my guild and with pugs.

The idea is XxX you don’t push the pugs away and tell them to F off, teach them. Roll with the pugs and watch as they learn.
Lots of pugs roll with Yaks. We teach em to stack up, buff up, and Push. How to blast in water fields for aoe heals, and lots more. Many non yaks members have had the best WvW experience they had since the start of the game rolling with yaks. The more people you show how to play the stronger server gets.

But it’s alright your not into that, you don’t have time to help players on your server learn the ropes.

What you need to realise is that the sooner we come together as one server, playing really well together (guildies, and pugs alike) the sooner Gandara will be one of the best WvW servers. Not relying on massive zergs to take stuff, but skilled organised players working together.

And someone said XxX vs YAKs ………..yea we’re called YakSlappers, not FlySwatters. LOL

Want Some Cheese with that whine ?

I don’t see how i was harassing you. I Haven’t Done anything wrong there. I haven’t offended or harassed anyone there.

If you’r screen shot is proving that im a noob commander, Well yes i got commander for less than a week now.

Nemesys.7251:

we asked few time to leave us and u continue do it,and u followed us on the other border too,its called harassment,your guildmate insulted us etc etc i post the screen at the end of evening.

Im not responsible for other players actions, i dont control their fingers.
And i wanted to be with you guys <3. You roll faces !
Im not harrasing anyone, I havnt been mean or said anything nasty. I jus said i wanted to be around you guys.

Well am sorry am tryin to learn to play. since you guys are uber super pro elite squad.

I didnt know following people around in wvw was illegal. Shoot Me.

But this a new round. I dont see why post in the old one from last week.

This is gonna be nice.

Fun times with the YaKs defending Bay and Hills in Gandara Borderlands at the same time, defending from both Dzagonur and AG.

This will be a fun week. Bring on the Badge Farming

Remember the Master Of Damage in Guild Wars 1, the guy who you could test out your damage, builds and combos on and he wouldn’t die.

Can he make a come back please.

I liked how he told me how much damage I did over time and how long it took for death to occur and other stuff…

What I’m missing the most is a practice dummy that doesn’t die.

Thanks

You mean like those practice dummy’s in LA that don’t die ? Or the dummy’s in the mists you can test on ,an just check your combat log to see how much damage you did ?

No, i mean like the master of Damage in Guild Wars 1, go play it and find out what am talking about

Just got a suggestion on this: Have you gone to the Chantry of Secrets since you achieved 100%? I’m told by the team that this can make things “click over” and give the 100% completion recognitions.

Could you try that and post if it works?

Thanks.

Just got 100% today, but i didn’t receive any gifts.
I did this and it worked for me. Even though i already had that point of interest. Thank you very much
