Guild Wars 2

So, today my internet cut out for a brief moment whilst I was connecting to a PVP match. I attempted to reboot Guild Wars 2 to reconnect, but I was forced to search for my phone due to SMS authentication. When I did get back in the game, I was parked in the PVP lobby instead of being put in my match. I got to wait 5 minutes for my friend to finish losing the 4v5, and then we discovered that we couldn’t queue because we still had 11 minutes of dishonour.

The reason why I mention this on the forums is because I feel that people who run into technical difficulties for a variety of reasons are essentially treated exactly the same as people that ALT+F4 during pvp matches. I’m somewhat hoping that Anet could perhaps change that. I know I shouldn’t be queueing on bad Wifi during vacation, but I’m a PvP addict.

Recently, I took a (short) break from university coursework in order to chat up my guildies as well as see what’s up in PVP.

One of the things I noticed was that a lot of people seem to be really vexed about running into teams with a lot of “Meta” classes. Some people had apparently been getting enemy teams with at least three reapers for the past five matches, or they’ve been getting a bunch of druids, or tempest ele’s, or what-not.

Personally I am of the opinion that PvP is basically #ThugLife and that solo queue is kind of like Russian Roulette, but they did get me thinking.

Recently we’ve seen the advent of maps that are not Conquest-based. This gave me the idea of a third possible queue option.

My idea is simple: Normal conquest with the normal conquest maps, but with a restriction that only allows one of each class per team. This would even the teams out a little bit more, and might go some way to alleviate any balance issues that have not been addressed yet.

Would such a modified conquest mode be feasible for implementation? What would we even name it?

This is a questions for European WvW players mainly?
Do you have something against Baruch Bay server? Why do you, more than less, go together against the Spanish server, doing 2 vs 1 most of the time? Is there any hidden reason we, in Baruch Bay, don´t know?
Thank you

As Duillin said, the first problem we have with you is the fact that you lot only produce zergs that will lose to zergs half their number during the day, but at 3 AM you break out a kittening 50+ man zone blob to ghost cap things.

The second grievance, the groups of thieves that run around capturing camps, which you claim is for ppt, but then run away letting us retake them before the Tick timer ends.

The third reason, the rotten cherry on top of the otherwise not-good-but-still-eatable cake, is that hacker guy, Do you have any idea how many kittening times I have had to run into the lord’s room at 5 AM, drop a healing turret and cleanse those condies off of them with Cleansing Burst? http://i.imgur.com/WB9Ok4Z.jpg Every time we were matched up against BB, there was the same hacker flipping all towers and keeps on all borderlands and EB between 3 AM and 7 AM by giving the lord and his guards 2 minutes of bleeding for 10k+ damage per tick.

Against individuals, we bear no ill will. Except for that hacker. He ought to be banned from having an internet service provider. As for BB as a whole. your zergs are annoyingly weak and keep running away unless there is a clear 4 to 1 advantage in numbers, and sometimes still wipe, your roamers are boring cliché’s that do a kitten job, and I’ve yet to see any BB keep that was properly sieged, so no good words about your Scouts either. At first we thought, if we just dont play until our matchups against BB end, the problem will go away. We now understand that sometimes, for the good of WvW as a whole, sick parts must be cut out. Myself and many players from my server feel that the only way to avoid getting matched up with you is to send you back to silver tier. You may ask, what do you mean by boring to fight?

Now imagine having to play against that every single week, and then realize that the better question is, why would we not dislike BB?
