Europe 8/9 blowouts North America 7/8 Blowouts and its only sunday morning here. At least for me is another week of not playing and looking for another game to play. Mr.Devon ur system is bad and if u don’t change it fast the WvW community will die in alot of servers.
The concept of tiers has little meaning at this point and you should try to stop thinking of matchups in those terms. Servers are matched up by proximity of rating, not proximity of “tier”. If the tiers have ratings that are within the range of the random adjustment, they can end up fighting each other. This is going to result in blowouts, no doubt about it. However, we are not going to make changes to this after just 2 weeks of the system. There are things we can do. We will almost certainly end up adjusting the total added to each server rating to group the matchups a little more closely. First however, we need to let the ratings adjust by having more varied matchups like these. If you look at EU, which is using the exact same system, you can see matchups with numerous surprising results. The same will likely be true by the end of the NA matchup.
TL;DR: We are going to wait at least a couple more weeks before changing any of the math behind the new system, but it is very likely we’ll decrease the size of the variation at some point.
I rly don’t get this stupid idea of Random thing. For me this is anet thinking okey guy we need another way to wvw. I rly hope ESO to be a good game cos right now GW2 for me is the way to kill time till ESO come out. So maybe I can stay in a game for a longer period, I lose all hope in Anet.
This scenario has been happening in T9 in EU for months now. This new matchup system should cause more rotation in and out of T9 than previously occurred. The real issue here is that Fissure of Woe and Vabbi are usually facing this sort of problem.
Look at T3 in NA, That is not WvW. A tick of 400+ all day is not WvW so don’t tell its only T9 in EU. We are Beta testing again. Maybe we never leavy the Beta Test.
Well I finish map completion in wvw for my alts thank anet for this stupid week, and I hope the person who think this random RNG thing for matches is out of the company now.
Fanboy!!!. Any normal mmo when they find a problem like this (Siege is basic for wvw) they just tunr off the area, map, etc… till they fix it, and normally they fix it in a few hour no a few days. This is just the lack of respect that anet has toward the wvw community.
And funnily enough I would actually think that people would whine even more if they turned off WvW. WvW is still very much playable, it just focuses more on open fighting than taking towers.
Different games have different code-structure, and also different issues and therefore takes different kind of time to fix. Quite logical.
Personally I have seen quite a few other MMOs where issues that made certain content in the game completely unplayable have been left into the game until the next big update.
Seriously, you must be trolling Nuvo. Did you see the epic crying and whining that ensued when the made a change to a single piece of siege?
Imagine what would happen if they shut down WvW totally. The crying would flood the entire internet with enough tears to crash the entire modern world communication grid.
WvW right now is not WvW is a karma train of ppl farming wxp. All I see is zergs of 50-80 ppl with 5 to 7 golems. At this point in t2 everything is paper
Something this big, and integral to WvW should NEVER have made it to live, further, it should not STILL be happening nearly a day after starting!
And stop talking about stuff that you clearly have no clue about.
Anyone with even basic knowledge of development is fully aware that a test-environment is never the same as live, and there is always a risk that something unexpected turns up in live, that didn’t in the test-environment.
They are working on it and fixing it as fast as they can. I find it extremely unlikely that they are just sitting there doing nothing. This is hurting them way more than all people shouting about the end of the world on the forums, so of course their top priority is to get it back online.

It is amusing that this whole ascended gear fiasco is a very effective scapegoat to blind people to the fact that wvw gets no substantial badges. The fact that we can cause 10 pages of uproar over a laurel vendor is sad. Who even cares about the rewards of 3% more stats or whatever kitten when the actual core gameplay is so fundamentally broken.
Lets try this, fix:
-Banner rez on lord
-Raid UI
-Improved commander tag features
-Waypoints being useable while the keep is under siege
-Diminishing returns for playing in larger groups (wexp scaling for both events and kills based on the number of players with you)
-Reducing the damage of arrowcarts
-Fixing the problem where retal is only nerfed in EB (I lold at this one, do they even know about this bug?)
-Lowering the amount of supply a keep can hold to prevent night time advantage
-Reducing the amount of supply transported by a dolyak when enemy servers are outmanned (hello upgrades overnight?)
-Improving the outmanned buff to serve a useful function (increase siege damage or supply capacity)
-A leaderboard for player kills/wexp rank and other wvw related features
-And finally a bit of class balance, such that running 40 guardians isnt the optimal thing to do
Oh wait no wtf, nevermind. Whether I can get ascended accessories is more important, please ignore the above, I know you will anyways…
+1, its not the ascended, is what they promise, and their 0 skill in fixing problems. Why do we need a wxp system when we have skill lag in fights, why do we need ascended gear when the game is not balanced. Don’t implement anything else fix the problems we have now then when everything is up and running implemente new thing. But after 9 month we are still playing the beta.
This is why Im w8 for ESO, maybe it will no be a good game but I lose my faith in Anet, I will keep playing gw2 till ESO come out. But I prefer to take the risk and try ESO than keep playing gw2
We included the laurel cost to prevent the economy from suddenly being blown out and to not invalidate the ways PvE players can get ascended items already. This system means that it is faster to get them in WvW, especially for players who already have badges, without being so much faster that everyone only gets them in this manner. As for the difficulty of acquiring laurels in WvW, we have taken steps to address that, including the fact that there will always be 3 daily achievements that are WvW specific. Speaking personally, I’ve been able to achieve my dailies in WvW even without that change, but this should make it even easier.
But why 20 day of dailys for 1 amulet or 25 days of dailys for 1 ring? when I can just go in 5 hour get to lvl 10 in fractals and see if I can get a ring. Even if u wnat to get ur ring in fractals with pristine fractal relic it took u 10 days not 25. The 250 wvw badges is easy to get 2 or 3 big fight and there u have it but 25 days for 1 kittening ring is stupid, I rly don’t know what kind of ppl think that 25 day was the same for pve and wvw. But what do I care I have all the ascended thing I need u guys are 5 or 6 month late in this crap
you don’t seem to understand that getting a item ring or otherwise from fotm is a chance not a garentee and then its a chance thakittens the item you need
At worst case in fotm u will get the ring u need in 10 day not 25

The only thing that get my attention is the matches change(I hope they don’t screw wvw with this) Ascended I get them 5 month ago in pve cos im looking for my BIS, the new abilitis are like useless (guard defense and oil, try to use the oil with a zerg outside the gate xD) I leat now we get chest for lvling my rank in wvw. From my PoV this changes should have been along time ago by now its too late like 4 or 3 month late maybe 9 month. But this is the open beta right?
No, it’s fine. Just try not being completely bad. Seriously.
I can run the dungeon but its rly annoying and not worth, yeah in the past the dungeon was easy but atleat ppl run it right now if u go outside AC is empty(I was guesting in JQ and BG), that by itself tell u alot.
I don’t know but I think if another game has it and it work why don’t implemente that in this game. U said as a moderates don’t compare a game that has been 10 year in the market, well there u have the experience of a game that has been in the market 10 year and u don’t learn anything from that game experience?
Copying other games is not an answer. Guild Wars 2 is doing things no other MMO has, they are taking chances on new ideas and a different style of MMO. Being a clone of a game simply because that game does not make the game good. Sometimes you need to step away from what everyone else is doing and think outside the box.
Customer service here is not exactly the same in other games, the engine, the game itself is built differently. They have different tools, and they didn’t just copy over the code either. They learn and adjust as things change, as they stated new tools will be available-new problems will arise, and new tools will be made to counter those.
Then they are like 8 month late with this tool to revert this kind of problem.
You can’t fix “stupid”. Or player errors. I would say a fix to resolve players not paying attention is probably in the works, but the fact that they even need one is a little embarrassing as a fellow gamer.
I often compare these problems with those of real life. Ever see that sign on a giant dangerous machine that says “keep fingers out of holes”? A smart man once told me for every warning sign there is some idiot who was the cause of one being made in the first place. Mcdonalds coffee is HOT, automatic doors open AUTOMATICALLY, if you touch the giant electricity converter behind the fence you will probably die..
Mistakes happen, But now I see u are too close minded

A friend acc got ban for silling gold or buying gold, when the only yhing he do was sending gold to a friend so he can get the golden title, then he send the gold back. I just want to know what is the method anet use to say “okey this guy selling or buying gold” so we ban him.
JQ is Full and u want transfers. lol Why don’t u try to make the ppl inside the server play wvw, Instead of coming here.
You would be surprised by this and I’m sorry if this is insulting to JQ. But Since JQ has been the best all these PVE people xfered to the server to get the WvW bonuses as they apply to PVE. They wanted the extra 2k HP lol and to get map completion in WvW.
I mean maybe some of them came for that and then ended up staying becasue JQ has a great community. I’m going out on a limb to say that these people don’t pvp they just came to JQ to leech off the hard work of the PVPers. leech isnt the right word maybe take advantage of it is a better word but you get what I’m saying. I know this sounds really mean but I don’t know how to put it nicely so sorry to the PVE JQ people who don’t wvw if you read this.
Usless Devs first fix the problems inside WVW THEN INTRODUCE NEW CRAP, why introduce the traps this patch and the lag is still there???? FIX THE REAL PROBLEMS THEN DO WHAREVER U WANT
Every time we try to do a move in that bl there is alot of lag and massive DC, right now that BL is broken, and it has been broken for the past 3 or 4 days.
At this point of the game I rly don’t know why ppl expect that anet do something right in wvw, every patch they destroy wvw even more so I rly don’t get this qq. It has been like this since day 1.
Lol? u can 2 ascended of the same type, u need to read men, there is 2 or 3 ascended(Ring/accessory) of the same stats. I don’t think is a horrible desing, u just need to read that all, if u are too lazy to do it then its ur fail.
My one and only question. Are you going to ever fulfill your promise to tell the JQ community why you left? You stated twice that you wanted a meeting on our TS to tell us but you never showed up. I mean so far you’ve avoided JQ you didn’t even tell us you were leaving until after reset night with an official announcement on the forums. I figured you owed us as much to at least tell us face to face or as close to it as possible but I guess not.
In all honesty, the thought of informing his own EMP members atleast a week in advance never occurred to him.
Interesting tidbit my biggest thing was why schedule meetings and not attend it doesn’t reflect well on you. Then when given an opportunity to make up for it still avoid it.
Can’t imagine how your guild members felt finding out AFTER the server found out.
I’m kind of curious about the no show on the meetings YOU called yourself. Nothing like sitting in a meeting room for hours waiting for someone to show up. I am glad I can rely on my red essence to show up every 28 days. Its the only thing that is consistent in this world. That’s why I am little kitteny right now, sorry.
But honestly, I am kind of glad, you hid from the meetings you scheduled. I think I would have snapped from the numerous excuses you are so good at making.
Why anyone would want to follow a leader who has recently abandoned his core guild is beyond me. Noodles, you were the leader of another guild and you turned your back on them and left them. Being a leader means that you have a responsibility to those people, and you have to accept that responsibility. Instead you turned your back on those people just because you think the grass is greener on the other side.
You are going to have trouble finding loyal followers if you are going to abandon them every time someone else promises to stroke your ego.
100 active members follow him. Yesterday from 102 members in the guild at NA prime like 70 where online and from that number like 60 inside wvw. So form my pov the wvw members move to DB

Stei The Drama Queen!!!
Whisp him or something don’t come with ur personal drama to the forums.
