Guild Wars 2

So, nothing has changed in 3 years.

Mesmer is a fun class to play. If you want dps and monster crit numbers flashing on screen, play something else. Everyone on the team doesn’t need massive dps. What utility would you give up for the dps boost?

It’s supposed to work this way. The goal of the Glicko rating system is to find matchups that are as even as possible.

This. I don’t think people understand the point of the rating system.

Yes, it is impossible to keep everyone happy, lol.
From “This isn’t fun, one server is dominating the matchups in all tiers. The system is broken” to
“We’re stuck in various tiers now. This system is too fair. We need to break it!”

Oh, and the 2 week matchups haven’t even begun yet. I wonder what the reactions will be then…

Isn’t sPvP availiable across all servers already? And they have monthly and yearly tourneys in place. So, there’s already a place where equal teams can compete with each other across all servers.

SOS dont give yourself excuses now. we have shown we are capable standing toe to toe with other tier 1 servers in strategy and ability.

the only thing that can make sos lose is lack of participation.

keep getting people into the boarderlands. spam your guild. spam lions arch. spam those new pve areas.

do you want to tell people that you “did some pve and killed some mobs like we’ve done in WOW for the last 10 years” or you “helped carry your server from rank 12 to rank 1 champion in 1 swift 2 month undefeated rise to the top”?

Hold on there cowboy. It’s Sunday. You aren’t the undefeated champs yet/

Ssshhh… you’re spoiling the climax. Let them have their moment of glory

You should read Ender’s Game.

This. Or, learn how to play chess. Whatever works.

Lol @ the forums again this week.

T1 is in a sad state. What a disappointment it will be for whoever replaces us next week.
Before we got to T1, I was hyped up for the challenge of facing what was believed to be the 2 best servers and thus, the best competition. Now, in the 3rd week, it is obvious this is not the case.

Reposting for the zillionth time:

1. LOL
2. There is no point blaming any server but your own for how things have turned out. The fact that you don’t have enough people turning up for wvw is not anybody else’s fault, and that won’t change no matter how many times you post about it.
3. SBI still has pretty minimal coverage during Euro primetime, and loses a lot of ground, upgrades, siege and whatnot. We should be pretty demoralized if what you claim to be the “general” case were true.
4. Taking offense at people claiming credit for winning is laughable. Believing everything they say is equally ridiculous. And quoting them and claiming that this represents the opinions of the server as a whole is just ignorant.
5. LOL

You should really contact support and hope they have a solution. There is really no black and white answer to this issue, but learn from this experience, and let it serve as a warning to the rest of the community. Also, my sympathies, and hope this gets resolved favourably.

Before you all jump to conclusions about what this gear set actually does, maybe wait for A.net to release the update, and read about what it actually does?

Holy mother of cats, there is a litterload of QQ about something that hasn’t been implemented yet. And frankly, all of your vague threats about quitting the game if A.net does this/that is ridiculous. Just wait 4 more days and find out what the meaning of “slightly more powerful” is. And when you find out it gives you maybe +10 of each stat more, I’ll be there to laugh at you. Seriously, CTKO (Chill The Kitten Out)

I do WvW for levelling, and story mode when i get to the appropriate level, so I don’t have to spend too much on gear (story mode rewards), it’s been pretty satisfactory so far.

What we need to do is get crushed willingly and let the bandwagoners outgrow BG and we need to grow as a community and try to “trudge” out of T2 opposed to absolutely making tons of noise.

I don’t think any of this happening is ‘willing’. If you guys had your choice you’d be 500k above us right now and forum boasting how bad you stomped us and how Beastgate is the best pony.

Its funny you say that, its the exact thing you do in every other thread when SBI is winning, yet you were no where to be found when SBI was losing.

Probably not whining on forums, and fighting on the field, unlike you.

Denial – Check
Anger – Check
Bargaining – Check
Depression – Ongoing

Well, keep at it BG, you’ve almost made it to Acceptance.

Arbacus.8296:

where do you get this misinformation most of bg is not wv3ing or quit the game temporarily or permanently due to rl circumstances or being friends or guildmate sof those with rl circumstances and not wanted to play unless everyones playing kinda thing
there is also the whole thing of comming into t1 and meeting the most disgusting no moral hacking exploiting spying quantity over quality zerg we have ever seen in mmo gaming

Wow, this is one heck of a sentence. I’m not 100% certain, but I think he’s trying to congratulate SBI and JQ on a terrific week of fights so far. Just another stand-up Blackgate member representing his server with all the class and candor we’ve come to expect.

lol, to be qualified as a sentence, it has to make some kind of meaning. All I see is a lot of words thrown together in the hope that something somewhere makes sense. Somebody find that kid an xbox and mic.

The day you stop complaining about 2v1 nonsense, is the day the rest of the community will take your posts seriously. WvW is designed to be ALWAYS 2v1, how have you not understood this very simple fact, it’s been 2 months.

The reasons popping up here and there are individual perspectives, and the overall goal is to maximize our advantage. There is no sole reason, it’s mostly convenience, and path of least resistance. So, in certain situations, a server will have to face an extended period of focus from the other two. How long this will last depends on the response of the server on the receiving end. And “whining” about it, is the silliest response, which will do you absolutely no good, except perhaps fortify the mentality of the community, that you deserve it. Man up, toughen your behinds, and keep fighting. Yes, it will suck, but you have to keep it up. You must put up the sort of resistance that will force the other servers to realize that the effort required to overcome you is better utilized elsewhere. Even if you don’t succeed, you will be remembered for how tough you were. That will be taken into account for future sieges. Instead, if you act like paper tigers, all roar and no bite, expect to be ruthlessly demolished and beaten back so that another server with a better attitude can take your place.

If you are outmanned, noone will leave you alone. What do you expect? The weaker targets go first, always. Take some time off if you have to, get your kitten together, and get back into the fight at full force. Don’t expect other servers to give you any kind of free pass, especially in T1.

We’re in it to win it. If you’re not, you’re out.

TL;DR: If you expect WvW to be a circlejerk of Green fighting Blue, Blue fighting Red, and Red fighting Green, you are delusional.

PS: Props to everyone on BG borderlands yesterday night for the epic fights at DFB.

Here’s the latest score. (if anyone cares)

elderan.2638:

It’s a waste of breath guys, I don’t think they have the capacity to see reason about 2v1. They believe BG should be stomping both of our servers, and when it’s not we are obviously joining together to defeat them, since that’s the only way given how superior BG is. All BG is doing is giving people motivation to ACTUALLY target them.

They’re still in denial mode. Give them time, maybe they move on soon.

To everyone who’s been crying about 2v1 since forever,

Yes, it’s intentional. We all hate you that much, whatever server “you” maybe. You have two options.

1. Learn to deal with it and quit crying about it every week
2. Get out of T1

Sincerely,
Everyone else

What’s wrong with the current titles that are available in wvw? And how is it different from what you are suggesting?

I can confidently say that any and all WM commanders have been exceptional at unifying forces/taking control of whatever map they’re on. I salute you WM, and actions speak louder than words, so language is not a real barrier.
No orbs, no problem

I think the system is pretty good where it is at right now. The drop rate is fine. Dolyaks and the champion/veteran npc’s have a chance of dropping badges as well. Helps if you’re in a party of 4-5 and are all hitting the same targets. Also, if your opponent(s) fight back, pretty good chance of badge dropping.

I think we should have a thread just for SBI-JQ score, and leave BG out of it, so that the thread doesn’t get locked. Also, don’t care about them anymore.

I hope there are people with more sense on BG, and that this is an isolated case of lunacy. All you will be remembered for is the dishonorable way in which you have gone about fighting this matchup. Every score thread has been closed thanks to the antics of people on your server, and the weekend’s not even over.
Respect is earned, and you lot do not deserve any, seeing the way you go about things.

Blackgate orb hacker is reported players unique tags are “White Tiger.7123.”

And this time I saw it, confirmed fly hacking. I hope this person gets banned and removed from our server.

thank you so much… ppl like you makes ppl like us wants to play again

Thank you, and I hope the individual(s) responsible are summarily banned. There is no excuse for ruining a competitive matchup in this manner. Also, I hope that people realize, the persons engaged in such activity are not doing it for the server they’re on, but mostly for selfish reasons, or to troll everyone by starting flame wars between the servers, etc. Please do not fall into the flaming crowd on such “events”, instead work together to identify those who are responsible, and weed them out of this marvelous community.
Looking forward to the rest of the week

How about you quit whining, and enjoy the content update that the developers have been working on for the past idk how many weeks?
Stupid costumes and mini games? What is wrong with you?
It seems the spirit of halloween has affected you adversely. I suggest you stop treating this game like a job and actually try and enjoy it sometime.

I don’t know what’s the issue here. Personally, I opened maybe 25-30 chests, and got nothing. But, that’s something I accept as “tough luck”. Sure, I feel disappointed, but then I see that people are getting skins on their first or hundredth try, so it’s no different from any other rng in game.
Remember that the price of the Black lion keys hasn’t changed. It was the same before the event. Anet just added an incentive for people who wouldn’t normally buy them, to gamble for a cool reward. I remember there was a video of someone opening 500 chests or so, to try and get the permanent banker/tp, but he didn’t. Did he go about blaming Anet, and acting as if it’s Anet’s fault that RNG didn’t favour him?

You are acting quite immature OP, if you believe that you are entitled to a reward JUST because you spent some money on an item that has a chance for an EXTRA reward, along with the normal rewards.
