This is the worst idea I’ve ever heard.

Make one league for un-teamed Queue.

Make one league for team-Queue.

(Similar to unranked vs. ranked so they don’t queue in to eachother.)

or do you not have the workforce to make this happen? and are settling for not as good of solution and a half-finished result.

In my mind, like one other guy said, the polls are attracting only a vocal population, it’s biased. It’s like how ArenaNet changes things because someone complains, failing to apply the feedback of all parties and make out with a more sensible solution. Every thing someone has complained about has been changed, instead of constructing the game well because of what both parties have said.

Taking in one side of this would be a massive failure of implementing communities’ feelings about issues. Appeal to both sides this time, Arena Net, and realize the constructivity of it. Thank you.

everything someone has complained about has been changed? oh.. if only that were true. Ever been on the bug forum? ever been on QOL forum? trust me, not even 1% of the ‘daily problems’ have been adressed in the past 4 years

As for the vocal minority:
there’s something called the “80 20 5” rule in game development. basically, it states that out of the entire population of a given game, 80% of players will never engage beyond the game itself. this means that 80% of players will only play the game and will never so much as look at a forum for it, read articles, etc. 20% (of all players) will bother to look at forums/subreddit/articles, but most will never actually contribute by posting replies, or create content. lastly, out of all players, 5% will not only engage beyond the game, but will actually contribute content themselves, by posting in forums, being active in the subbreddit, and create videos and other content.

That’s my point. So do we want to trust THAT 5% to make this “corrective” change? What if they’re not in the sector of the game that is being changed? What if they are in general PvE players who only play on the weekends and only do PvP for dailies and then quit? Is the math we get in this the chance that we WANT?

Because we can’t guarentee these 5% of players are in the population we WANT to poll for the best constructivity, we can make the better system and advance our game in a positive way we can take corrective feedback off of.

No Rewards for Zone Completion

I completed Snowden Drifts, Brisband Wildlands, and one other zone (the last 3 I’ve completed; I’m at 99% world completion now) and I received no zone completion rewards for none of the three zones!

How can I be compensated for this? Will I never be able to receive the rewards that I missed from this bug?

I sent a ticket in-game, but nothing has been done after three days of waiting for a response.
