Guild Wars 2

Hello,

I guess there might be few knowing me, but if there is still any oldies alive, anything changed boys ? And is Eva(?) still missing me ? <3
I dont see any old teams/names.. are there actual people doing Spvp or evryone changed to pve?

Thank you!

I’ve logged in like 2 weeks ago, activated the starter arena i’ve got in mail and then didnt log in till today and it completly disapear, some guys from guild asked me to make them a arena, is there a trick on finding this fat rabbit or is the same kitten i’m used to, wich means harena net?

ps: I miss some infractions! LOVA YA EVA!

Yes the game is dead, 150+ pvp members of my guild are now 4 members. You are the one trying to advertise false asumptions about ingame status. I want the game to survive but without a tragic change it will not. Thanks and have a nice day.

Darnis, my beloved froob.

Those guys you are playing or seeing around you, are pve newbies that testing pvp.
The competitive players that been into PVP since DAY 1 are NOT playing at this moment or if there are some left are below the number you suggested. This is the concern me and some guys here are trying to point out to the ARENANET developers. If the guys that make specs, meta’s, and can bring your game into any kind of competitive leagues are GONE, you will end up with the players like yourself wich are CASUAL or PVE’ers, whatever you want to call it.

Have a nice day.

yes unfortunatly there is nothing balanced, and the spec you have is a bunker-condition necro spec i assume ?

Pretty much you have to understand the spvp in this game is around “gaining points”.
So fighting over kills will not help you win the game in most cases.
To kill bunkers you need to time your burst or your damage/abilities.

I play most of the clases but only Warrior and Mesmer on top pvp so i cant help with specs or whatever you did wrong with a Necro.

I am not joking, shes the only one that showed me she deserves my respect. Others just hide around moderator name and delete threads.

The constructivity of this thread is that i am showing my love towards CC Eva human being. I am very positive and honest that she(or he?) is the only employer i’ve actualy love from Guild Wars 2 team.

Please share the same constructivity with me so she(he) understands that we will love and respect the ones like us!

Hello,

My name is Chewing Gum,

I am from Italy and i do eat pizza while i walk my dog in the forrest i have near my house. I’ve been playing Guild Wars 2 game since beta’s and i’ve loved the game from the day one. I’ve shown my interest into Structured PVP scene from day one and i’ve did evrything i could to manage and improve this section of Guild Wars 2 Game.
After a few months and false promising expectations that representatives of a certain company have given me, i’ve decided to do my best to help the company by pointing out what are the only solutions for them to recover from the “down state” they went to. So my constructive suggestion are:

1) Fire the spvp developers and leaders of this team.

I want to thanks all the pvp developers so far, they did a awesome job, but the company have promised us alot more then they delivered.

ps: is it better now moderator?

Oni.5429:

The thing that really worries me is that ‘’not yet ready’’ might mean anything. It could mean we’ll get it sneakpatched in a week or that it might be similiar to QPs. I mean, when were QPs added? 3-4 months ago? ‘’This method of displaying the QP’s is temporary until the full system comes online.’’
-sigh-

I feel repeating myself over and over, but i will do my best to get those “good developers” that distroyed the game i waited 4 years.

A team that display the “top players rank” ( called QP’s in this game) in a forum post that they update evry few days when they want, have time, for months and not one week and so on. It just shows me they are totaly incompetent developers that will never ever get anything done. They just do temporary stuff so they get the sallary one more month. I want new pvp developers that actualy wants to get GW2 pvp better.
I’d suggest them to hire the guy on another post that is explaining evryone how GW2 pvp is incredible fun and enjoyable right now. This is the kind of guys we have leading pvp team now.

Sorry mate, as most of you know, theres nothing for us in GW2 at this moment anymore. Was a fun run and i hope i’ll meet you guys in another game or even GW2 when is fixed. Really loved to play agaisnt most of you, being top or not, i enjoyed evry match. But we lost so many good warriors that there is nothing i can do to revive this cemetery anymore.
We still have a few active players, trying to reform atleast 1 team, i’ll pop in from time to time to help them, but other then that i raither play a 12 years old game then this bullkitten.

lol only oni? after that patch, from DI like 30+ members quited. To make a bit of history, we started with 150ish members and we ended today with 20 that play 2-3 hours maximum. And till friday noone will be left imo. Arenanet, you are not even able to patch PVE properly, how can you promise evryone you’re able to grow a e-sport game.

What can i say man, stop losing your time, you want competitive pvp and a healthy pvp community, then GW2 is the worst choice we made. Thanks god i understood it now and not 3 years later.

Tyler Bearce.3427:

Nice post Folly. I agree with your points overall, though I’m going to speak primarily to your points about communication, community involvement and transparency.

The trick with our communication, is to find a good balance, on multiple levels.

First, we have to be conscious of the balance between how much time we have to be posting on the forums and writing blog posts, with how much time we have to be working on actual development: bug fixes, profession balance, designing new features, implementing new content, etc.

Next it’s important for us to be conscious of the balance between saying too little, leaving people pessimistic about when things are coming out and guessing about how those things will work, and saying too much, harming our ability to later change, postpone or abandon something that we’ve already publicly committed to.

Finally we need to consider the balance between relying on community feedback too heavily, where it’s super time consuming for us to process and leaves us feeling unable to make a change without first asking for a community vote, and relying on community feedback too little, where we might miss some key information that could impact the success of our future releases.

Hopefully we are getting this balance pretty close most of the time, and if not, it’s always something we are working towards improving.

Anyway, keep up the good, constructive posts!

can i have what you smoke please? If this is how you guys see the things, good luck to you, i rather play tetris.

Yep this is how i want evry player to speak about GW2, not stupid attention kitten threads.
+1 from me and <3

Even if i play a mesmer myself and so on, i still find or atleast thats what impresion you gave me, that you are looking for attention couse theres nothing special or anything new in your thread.
Anyway, if im right, then you got my attention, so write it on your popularity book!

I’d love if you would come up with things to improve the kitteny pvp we have in gw2 and not whoring threads. But looks like noone /cares about gw2.

moves to suggestion

Have a nice day!

Well some of us still hope a few good changes that are a “must” will come on 26, else yea like you say a break will come in place fo sure. Some might come back some might not, but we lost so many players till now, i dont want to see another round like this anymore.

1) Solo que

Explication of how i see Soloque:
We have matchmaking so just let players to solo/duo submit roster like on free tournaments and since you announced its player ranking and not team ranking it will place you in a fight agaisnt a similar rank team/players. If we have player rank, why would i have to spend time to create/join a team ?
SoloQue will bring ALOT of new players into paid tournaments and will grow the pvp community. And no, you dont need to separate anything.
The way que is now with a 5man team is separating evryone right now, becouse you have to find 5 man wich is hard sometime, there are no LFG channels wich are on all europe servers, there are no dedicated forums for it, there is no tool at all to help you find team mates and sign up as a 5man into paid que.
So give us the system free has as sign’ing up and implement the same matchmaking you already say we have. Evry player should work for hes ranking and not being carried by a team imo.

2) Statistics of “what inviduals have done” in a game.

Explication:
I am a very very kitten player, thank you, but i want to improve myself or players around me, so in my eyes having statistics and logs of what i did on evry match it will help me alot alot to improve. My memory is short, being in a position when i take decisions evry single minute for 10+ humans and playing with other humans money sometime it makes your hard drive to be a bit slower in the progress of a online game mechanics. In other words, look at dota, lol etc, give us what you have now and expand it more and more as much as you can in this direction. This will help ALOT of theory crafters, solving the “bad” or “good” players, the kitten contests, the knowledge of the pvp community, and so on. There is no way this game will come even close to Esport without those 2 functions. But i would love to have them on 26 to give me a little hope for future.

3) Ladder on WEBSITE and INGAME.
I want to see a ladder on your WEBSITE and not on a forum post that is being edited and so on. It looks very bad for a company of your dimension to have this for 4-5 months. If my website would use this method we’d lose 40%+ of our sales.
If you want an exemple please check : http://mos.millenium.org/players
I know it takes time in your interviews, but if other players without any salary or motivation can do it faster then you, it means there is something that it shouldnt be there and me as a player and a customer i get suspicious.
You already have the wall for the INGAME monthly/daily tournaments or whatever you want to bring in future. I am asking you, how hard can it be to copy paste the same WALL and make a script to get the QP number and player name into that WALL and show it ONLINE INGAME at anytime and being updated in real time. This function will bring the proffesionalism i’d love to see at your company and i was expecting and i really cant even beleve its not even done yet.

Thank you and on 26 i know ARENANET will give us atleast those 3 MUST NEED functions. Otherwise it’ll be harder and harder to get anything done ingame.

Wish you a nice day.

jim.5380:

to purie: this psycho is not psyco dont jump into other people topics when they try to recruit and badmouth them its not your right.
to pharexys: the guardian u talk about did this on his own without psycho knowing to explain to him he is wrong
and to jumper: dont jump on other ppl recruitment threads u have no right

You should join those guys, they are greeks if i remember correctly.
The guardian is a wierdo but others are decent imo

arent you the 3 guys? with some guardian acusing me of exploits?
Couse i use staff 2 on mesmer and i can teleport, duh!
Anyway gl

mate the game been dead for months imo, we just fooled ourself that community will grow and so on. After the 1v1 we got a increase into pvp players but will take months for them to get to a good level of knowledge and why would they spend months for it?
MM is very good when its properly made.
Our current system of “statistics” ( what have evry player done in a game and so on ) is ZERO. We have no control or option to see the “bad” players and totaly get them outside of the “community” we could create without arenanet help.
I’d love on 26 feb to have a change that will revitalize evrything but that would mean to lie myself like i did with RIFT, SWTOR, AoC and so on.
They want more players, and they want us to spend RL cash. End of the story.

How do you see us, the players creating or finding teams for spvp ?

Hello,

The soloq is much better for most of the pvp players, even top teams will miss a guy or dont play for 1 day and that means they cant play in this current sistem.
I want to see the SOLOQ ingame TODAY!
I want to see you ASKING COMMUNITY WHAT THEY WANT AND STOP THE BULL****.
We should decide what will be implemented ingame, we play the game.

Ok im gonna act like a wierdo, but there is no other way to explain it to you.

This is the conversation of a Casual and Esport player:

Casual: Hey “esport player”
Esport: Hey “casual player”
Casual: I’ve been playing GW2 and its fun mate.
Esport: Ya well, me dont care.
Casual: Has pvp, good pivipi!
Esport: Me play fo money, has it has money?!!!!!!!!
Casual: No money yet, but soon™, they promised!!!!!
Esport: Me money play, No money No play.

I know but is freaking true.

Yes comparing to wow is wrong. totaly different mate.

GW2 have potential but there will be no “esport” word included around gw2 name for a long time from now.
I dont mind much, if they focus on “fix & improve” i am happy!

They will just delete your post, and not fix the bug for 5 months.
Thats the way to go esport mate!

You might have this feeling after this change becouse alot of players from “hotjoin” have moved into paids. So the quality is very low.
But with help and time, those will grow as all of us did and there will be more players involved into paid scene.
Wasnt this what most of us asked for?

Hello JonathanSharp.7094 ,

As a 100% pvp player i disliked at begining the change you did, but now seeing more new players getting into paids got me a bit horny that the game “might” survive after all.
But you need to understand that with those changes you gave us lets say “new members” into pvp ( paid tournys ), but you distroyed the quality of players attending those “premade tournaments”. Even with this in mind, i decided to try as much as i can to learn those new players to get better and grow this small pvp community.
And yes i am only looking at the “paid tournament” community, wich in my eyes are the players that will push your game into esport with our streams, with our knowledge, with our bugs report ( that you never fix ) and so on.

Also, i recommend you to fix the bugs, sploits, bad mechanics, whatever you want to call them, much faster or to actualy fix them. My team totaly stoped reporting till you dont start fixing things.

I’ve been speaking with alot of pro players from sc2, lol, dota, and trust me, they have no intention to even try gw2. I am trying my best to get them here or to tell them how good gw2 pvp is, but im sorry “mate”, this game have to many issues.
I hope you’ll read my post and understand the feelings i have, theres no need to respond or whatever, do your job, make us the best pvp game.

I dont want this thread closed, so im not gonna point them out, you’re in pvp scene, you should know there are “alot” of broken mechanics that kids abuse to gain benefits. All of them are reported, only revival ones got fixed in over 2 months. Lets see how long kids gonna run with all boons till it’ll be fixed.

Can we fix the “abused mechanics” most of the “pvpers” use to gain benefits in front of “new wannabe’rs” ? Instead of changing in 2 months the description to 3 warrior skills?
I mean it would help you grow the pvp community more then that 3 descriptions.

Why you keep post on evry “viewed” thread Jonathan that you read and take suggestions from forums? it should mean ur team and urself would read the “reports, emails, pm’s” of “reported bad mechanics, abused mechanics” that are giving advantage’s to ppl abusing them.

Ok, this january patch for pvp suck’d, but its ok it doesnt matter, the problem is, you’re moving the game into more pve or more “non competitive” scene. So do we move to a new game or you actualy gonna start showing us you really want esport?

Hello,

Nice initiative, i’ve been creating, developing so many gaming communitys over the years that when i readed your post i was like.. wth one more shouldnt be any issue.

1v1, free, paids, overall
I will not do hotjoins except dueling, and i have never liked the zerg fest at all.
I have over 1.8k tournaments on Warrior, and over 800 tournaments on Mesmer.

I’d like to suggest you that this gw2 official forums are very wierdo for me and sometime is hard to find “good” informations. Specialy for a new player.
We could develop a completly friendly to use website for this kind of “growing gw2 pvp community”.

Anyway, i will not help with scripting, programing or anything related to it, if you need hosting and advices, i can help you out. My time is very limited and work is taking over me again looks like.

Have fun m8!

ps: playing darts m8 ? !!!!

Such an big issue we have here, thank you for fixing this in 15 minutes.

Can you please fix the following while you are at it:

Weapon Abilities
—————————————————————————————————————
Greatsword:
“Illusionary Wave” – Cone emanates in the direction the character body is facing, not the direction the head/camera is facing.
Staff:
“Chaos Storm” – Daze from this ability will not apply vulnerability in combination with the Dazzling trait or Stun from Confounding Suggestions..
Scepter:
“Ether Clone” (Scepter 1) is not causing confusion as the tooltip says it will.
Sword (Main Hand):
None Reported
Sword (Off-Hand):
“Counter Blade” – Daze from this ability will not apply vulnerability in combination with the Dazzling trait or Stun from Confounding Suggestions.
Torch:
“The Prestige” – Will often only grant a fraction of a second of stealth or none at all. See 00:15 here: http://youtu.be/CDAk8bGMTZ8
“Phantasmal Mage” – Does not benefit from Master of Misdirection or Illusionary Elasticity.
Focus:
“Temporal Curtain” – This was changed so that it could not stack with itself by players running back and forth through the wall. However it no longer stacks with any Swiftness Boon in duration like the boon itself suggests it should. Spell does not reflect arcing attacks or attacks from a different z-axis position.
“Phantasmal Warden” – Not running to melee range of the target between attacks.
Pistol:
“Phantasmal Duelist” – Runs up to 600 range even though it has a 1200+ range.
Trident:
“Illusions of Drowning” – Causes the target to reflect friendly ranged attacks.
“Siren’s Call” – Clones are causing confusion on hit and not boons on allies.
Spear:
None Reported
Class Abilities
—————————————————————————————————————
Healing:
None Reported
Utility:
“Signet of Illusions” illusions initially summon with normal health.
“Veil” is acting as an Ethereal field rather than a Light field for combos.
“Portal Exeunt” lasts only 10 second instead of the 20 reported in the tooltip.
“Null Field” is still not lasting its intended duration and most certainly is not “ripping ALL boons from foes” as indicated on tooltip. Post Patch it doesn’t even remove all conditions on the caster. It may remove 3 or so and then stops working.
“Blink” – Will often teleport you and then instantly teleport you back from where you started.
“Veil” – Only stealthing you for 2 seconds instead of the 4 listed on the tooltip.
Elite:
“Mass Invisibility” – Far too often this ability fails to make me invisible. See 1:58 here: http://youtu.be/CDAk8bGMTZ8
Downed:
None Reported
Shatter:
None Reported
Traits
—————————————————————————————————————
Domination:
“Cleansing Conflagration” removes conditions at the end of the channel of “The Prestige” rather than at activation.
Dueling:
“Deceptive Evasion” – Not producing a clone while morphed or while out of combat even when enemy is in range and targeted.
“Confusing Combatants” is not proccing on Phantasm death.
“Deceptive Evasion” clones target nearest enemy instead of casters target.
“Sharper Image” – Bleeding caused by this trait causes zero damage when the illusion dies.
Chaos:
“Chaotic Dampening” – There is a bug that causes the bleed duration of “Winds of Chaos” to get reduced by 20% from original 7s down to 5s.
Inspiration:
“Temporal Enchanter” is either bugged or the tooltips are incorrect for Glamours. With Temporal Enchanter active the field lasts as long as the tooltips say by default and without it they end faster then what the tooltips say by default.
Illusions:
“Masterful Reflection” does not proc off of the trait “Blurred Inscriptions”.
“Master of Misdirection” does not affect Confusion from Confusing Combatants or Illusion-inflicted Confusion, like from iMage.
“Illusionary Elasticity” does not provide an additional bounce to clone attacks that bounce … such as iMage.
General Bugs
—————————————————————————————————————
Clone images don’t show off-hand weapons even when you do have one equip on the character that created it.
Ethereal Combo – proccing the original version of Chaos Armor instead of the one the Mesmer class released with.
Invisibility – NOT breaking channel effects that require a target. (A bump of dirt can cause my attack to miss, but going invisible doesn’t)
Distortion – Damage and various CC will often still occur during Distortion.
Cone attacks will go off in the direction you were facing when you activated the ability rather than the direction you are facing when the ability finally fires.

I totaly agree with the change, i hope they will fix the macro users from thiefs too.

Huh, good run i guess. What most of you dont understand, we all (eu and na) wants the game to progress and go e-sport as soon as possible. But a-net needs our help too.
Flaming and calling each other w/e, its not gonna help anything and specialy its not gonna grow your kitten at all. You all look like some kids argue’ing while playing a football match in the school valley.

Facts are:
1) EU and NA are same, meta’s are different or not, doesnt matter.
2) EU and NA needs to give togheter to the community to help it grow.
3) EU and NA have alot of good teams running now and more and more are starting forming. So we need to support them as much as we can. Couse when you fight only 2-3 teams and que’s dont pop, you’ll regret your selfish’ness.

Most important fact is: This is a f’n game b9tchis.

ps: Stop speaking about Xeph or anyother, you or anyone else doesnt matter who represent EU or NA or w/e, it matters that they discuss the issues we have.

I dont usualy care about kittens and i play this game to have fun with my 8+ years old guild members, but having a stable and constructive community behind a game will help us all alot.

2nd ps: My dog-cat is a beast!

Good job on your tutorial, and keep it up, we need more ppl to help the warrior community.

There are more viable specs for competitive pvp, but it really depends on the oponents and your team setup.

Our second paid team is filled, they are on practice shedule of 5 hours per day right now.
Third paid team is in progress but we are not in any rush for it.

We are not really looking for more members, our guild is a PVP focused, we do not do PVE or WvW at all.
So therebefore we are only looking for players that play 5+ hours per day and only do tournaments.

Thank you.

Please give me a bit more cry’ing couse im loving this thing so much!

GJ A-net!

Hello,

Maybe you guys play on NA ?
On EU side, evry evening till 2AM the paids are up. Sometime even longer.
and there are 2 or 3 paids at the same time.

About tickets, evry team that is doing paids evryday shouldnt have any problems with tickets.
There are more ways to get tickets then actualy " buy gems" attitude this guy have.

ArenaNET has gived you the:
1) Crafting tickets ,
2) Gems rewards from Paids to buy Tickets,
3) Exchange gold into Gems and buy Tickets.

I’ve been doing paids since begining of them and i have never crafted or exchanged gold into gems.
Oh and guess what, i have 5k gems too.
My idea is, the cost is not high for any dedicated team. The problem is creating teams require work, time, shedules, practice evryday, etc etc. Wich is a bit hard to do or not evryone has the same dedication for it.
Also the most important stats like: how many killing strikes, how many points captured, how many neutrals, how many kills, how many deaths, how much damage, damage per second, how much healing and so on are not shown at all, wich once again make it harder for players to improve themself easyer.
Streams are so limited, there are very few teams that actualy stream, and the important things in streams are usualy “muted”, hided whatever.

You will have to understand that:
A-net has gived us a promising start and game, we have to work to get it more popular too. Be it fan pages, Be it draging your pve, wvw buddys into pvp and so on.

We need to give constructive modifications that we as players thing are going to improve our ingame time.
About paids, i can assure you that the players or teams in paids have incrased latly.
Wich is a good thing, but YOU, ME, HIM, the players have to help too.

Hope i’ve explained as much as i could, but i really love GW2 and will do my best to support it if i can.

Hello, sorry for so few updates latly. But our crew is focusing on Paids as most of pvp guilds are.
We are looking for Ele, Engi, Mesmer that are rank 30+.
