Guild Wars 2

As soon as an invasion starts on a specific map, the map fills up and then boat loads of people get stuck in overflow, understandably.

The problem is that the event doesn’t take place on the overflow server. It shows the red message “Scarlet’s minions are not attacking this world. Please return to your home world when prompted”. Hence, all of us stuck on the overflow server are missing the event.

Will there be a fix for that problem? Will the event take place also on the overflow server?

It is boring! Wish HoD and ET would come back out to play. We’ve worked hard for weeks to take #1 but wasn’t expecting it to just be given to us. C’mon guys get back out there and fight.

Don’t worry, most of HoD will be back when the invisible army bug is fixed. ^^ At least I know my guild will be back, but until then we are not doing WvW.

JQ took the lead over the weekend, so all the free riders that were on the HoD band wagon for a free WvW win or better bonuses moved over there. Now HoD has no queue time or at most 5-10 minutes during peak hours.

Either way, there are a few guilds that did very well today in EB on HoD and I hope they are here to stay. I was impressed with the performance of DtD and REAP.

Moral of the story: Make world transfers stop or make it that when you transfer to another world of your WvW tier, you cannot join the WvW until the current match is done.

I think that this voting system would be appropriate with the dislike function mentioned a few posts above and the guild/public separation of the titles. A commander would get his title and icon only if the net amount of endorsement, that is the likes minus the dislikes, is more than the required amount. That way, a commander would not be voted commander only because he has a lot of friends that are not in his guild.

I think that players should have the option to refund their current commander 100g icon or not, and if not, they should gain access to some kind of extra wvw functions, like the capacity to create “super siege weapons” or hire special guards or something. Some people might actually not know what to do with 100g or a plain refund may cause them more troubles than what it’s worth.

And yes, it’s been unbearable since the 10-7 patch. The fix needs to come quickly, or the changes made during the 10-7 patch need to be rolled back until properly optimized.

I concur, HoD borderlands jumping puzzle is also broken.

I agree with the last few posts that 1) this needs to be fixed badly and 2) that it’s been much worse since the Oct 7, 2012 patch. I wasn’t as much as a problem before that patch, and the modifications made to the camera on that day made it unbearable in WvW.

I think that this latest idea would be the best solution, that is to remove the participation in a WvW match when you transfer to another server until the end of that match.

The ping on the map is not audible, I think that it is the only thing missing. It would be nice to have it being with a sound, and the possibility to disable that sound in the options (in case you fall on an abuser).

I usually can cancel it a few seconds into the cast, but if I try to cancel when more than halfway done it still gets the 30 seconds cooldown. I understand the need to put the 30 seconds cooldown when interupted by another player, but if I cancel it deliberately, it should go on a 4 seconds cooldown even when I cancel it right before the end of the cast. Very annoying in sPvP and WvW situations when you have to react quickly indeed.

I am from HoD and we’ve won every single match so far to date, and we’ve always been green. This is a problem as I cannot get my world completion without completing EB where I am missing 2 POI and 2 Vistas in the blue side, which is SBI. Since the 1 week matchups began, I’ve never seen our server capture blue keep or towers. HoD is always a full server due to our WvW popularity. Hence, I cannot do the transfer out, transfer back trick to get my world completion done. On top of the 3-4 hours EB queues on HoD, we cannot achieve world completion anymore because of the very competitive matchup we are put in. The way it’s been going, I don’t think that HoD will ever lose a match at this rate, and thus we’ll always be green. I was extremely lucky to be able to complete the borderlands maps early right after launch.

I think it is unfair to the more pve oriented players on HoD who are trying to achieve world completion at some point.

I believe that the solution could be either that 1) colors should rotate randomly at every new matchup to allow some chance for world completion or 2) remove WvW from the world completion requirement.
