Guild Wars 2

“wiped the lag”? That’s a bit of an exaggeration. We just had a non-queue’d 3-way in SM in AG/BB/VS and it was unplayable. Noone could use any skills.
On that same day we had a mass DC on BB border. about 3/4 of the people from each guild(about 3-4 guilds) on the map DC’d at the same very moment. There were also map-wide lagspikes, where the TS went ‘WHOOAAA!!!’ (cause you teleported back and forth 20 meters) about 3 times in a row. But when we left the border it was fine.

Btw imo if aNet gave 2 kittens about the lag they would’ve made the bottom 6-9 servers of each region free to transfer long ago.

I haven’t read the entire thread, but I wanna ask, are the devs considering WvW? Because if so, thieves are going to uhm how do I put this kill everything. You must put a limitation to swapping trait sets, which should be there even for swapping traits and equipment, such as, you must wait at least 2 minutes AFTER getting out of combat.

-Thief attacks your Warrior with s/d 20066, fails, gets INSTANTLY out of combat with Shadowstep, returns with s/p 50036 within FIVE seconds and kills you. Imagine this, except for every possible situation.

Roaming will no longer be actual fighting and trying to make a build that’s okay for every possible foe, but instead roaming with a build that’s the best at getting out of combat, then switching to a build that hardcounters that foe and gg. Will be so much fun! Another aspect of the game ruined! =)

I came here after some googling after watching this video, and making the comment over there.
This is pretty game-breaking imo, and should be addressed faster, considering this thread was created 5 months before the linked video. I wonder if it’s fixed by now.(vid is 1 month old)

I had so many complaints when I came to this forum… but I see almost everyone here has the same ones so I’ll just leave it at +1

your megaserver seriously sucks the fun out of guild wars

Same. Came here to contribute to the qq thread, but everyone seems to be on the same opinion.

The problems are clear, the solutions are listed, an official response is due.

Leaving my +1 to the general opinion. Megaserver is cancer, and it will devouver the soul of this game.
When I looked up reviews of this game 1,5 years ago the most dominating reason that everyone had to mention was the awesome community. Which was the reason I bought this game, instead of playing a f2p. That means this game right now can provide NOTHING that any other MMORPG couldn’t. A horrible community, unbalanced PvP and a gamemode soon to be unplayable thanks to hackers and lag, called WvW.

NCSoft will only get more money if players keep playing. Players who are not enjoying the game will not keep playing. Now look at the past 16 pages, and explain how this is worth it for anyone?

Bank guilds
Do you plan to do something against these, as I believe they are a problem – Why would I buy bank slots for gems, when I can make a bank guild and have 250 slots for the price I could get 30 slots for gems.
Don’t misunderstand, my problem here is that having a bank guild is just way too effective, way too rewarding – for this reason, I have my own, and it sucks that I can join 1 less guild because of it. It just doesn’t make sense, why would inventory space issues be related to how many guilds I can be in?

So, for this reason, I think the price on bank slots in gems should be drastically decreased, or the limitation on how many guilds someone can be in should be possible to increase in some way. (Guild Slot Expansion – 800 gems – this way it makes those greedy kittens at NCSoft happy as well.)

I guess I might as well throw this out here, because it’s hard to guess:

Whiteside Ridge had people leaving a lot before free transfers. So, in that sense, it didn’t really affect us, we’re still losing about 1 very important person / day.
How many transfers we’ve gotten? I could probably count on one hand.

I’m currently spending the week on Gandara, just because I decided to check out another server, since it’s free anyways, and it is pain. I’ve gotten back into PvE because WvW on Gandara has suicided. It’s just so much that if you want to play there’s at least a 2h queue to every map. 96 man EB queue today, and it peaks higher every day. When you get in, the server dominates everything due to the ridicoulus amount of incoming people.

I hope to get back to T8 as soon as possible. Winning by numbers isn’t fun. Nor is it an achievement.

I’ll blame Gobbes for getting beaten by BT, cause his horrible jokes are scaring the transfers away :P

I heard they bugged tequatl so it’s much harder now? Strange.. seemed easy..(jk, almost kitten mah pants spamming jezza’s flamethrowers, but hey, we had like almost 2 seconds left and we got it, idk why I was stressing myself!)

This week Whiteside Ridge continues its conquest by pushing BT below us, which means that our spot in T8 is now stabilized, so we will actually have fights, and we don’t even have to look for them(T9 was quite painful in the terms that there was 0 enemy, we lost some people to the several weeks of… basically non-existent WvW.)
The improvement of the community can be seen how we’ve finally reached a stage that we kill Teq 2 times every week, with regular commanders and turreteers, which we’ve achieved after 2 or more months of continous failing and practicing, and not giving up.

Many if not all of our guilds will surely happily welcome any transfers, and the server community is definitely going to give a big welcoming quaggan hug to any transfering guild – during the free transfer time I hope some guilds come to just simply try us out, see if you like us, it’s free!

Commanders, guilds have our community TS at their service, which if they write in team chat for ~3 minutes, they’ll get some of the zerg into TS, making it easier to coordinate.

Btw. what’s a queue? Never seen one on WsR…

Whiteside-Ridge owned the Marionette straight after killing Tequatl for our 4th time, proud to be on this server! ;’)
Off to wurm hunting!!
