for arenanet its ALL bout Que times for full premades – thats the only thing arenanet care about and its the only thing how they manage to get players for premades
even when noone have fun with this they will force everyone to play this kitten as long as it lowers the q times for the 5-10 pro teams
full premades is top priority for everything (to can call this game competive) – noone care bout its fun
1. so its no problem to bring in all players as cannonfodder as long as it lower the Que
times – why the kitten care bout what the no premade player feel
2. Leaderboard for this full premade teams say how skilled they are with 99% wins they must be pro (in farming solo players)
3. balance in this game will be so uber with this system – how you can not call this e-sport or competive with mixed teams?
not even blizzard would be so stupid to make something like this and call it competive and even say its e-sport – just lol
Anyone here played warcraft arena? How stupid it would be when Blizzard would allow/mix solo/duo players in a team and let them fight a full 3 man team? Noone ever would think this would be a good idea
But yeah in gw2 its the way they go …. and wonder why the e-sport thing dont work^^
more than 5 people per team just dont work in this game and even with 5 people per team its often very hard to see whats going on
game design in gw2 is made to give you all info you need with “character-animations” only and for most people its hard to even see everthing with more than 2 characters on screen
oh and i dont talk bout twitch viewers – its hard to see whats going on for the player
and with more than 5 players it just would be a clusterkitten with spamming buttons all on a target – can´t call this pvp
situation now is exact same situation as when game was released
1) at release solo players got farmed by teamplayers (not even blizzard would be so stupid to do something like this and call it “competive”)
2) this killed the very big PVP playerbase short time after release very fast and forum was full with asking for soloQ
3) after some months arenanet bring finally soloQ and everyone was happy …. BUT the team players did now QQ cause noone to farm anymore. TeamQ was than 20+ minutes and met only same 5 teams all day
4) after this they had famous idea to give double rewards in teamQ
5) now – they go back to step 1 and wonder why still noone wanna play this game
brainz
after all this time they still dont see teamQ in this game is bullkitten (with this gamemode + this combatsystem) and just unfun and it will not be better when force the playerz to play it^^
this thread is soo sad how much people jump on him cause he has bad internet – guess what? noone kitten care when you can download it in 5min it just make you looking like an idiot when you post in a thread like this “nadada but Im cool i have fast internet” – seriously
here in germany we have only good internet in big countrys
i have only LTE from Vodafone till next year october and so i have only download 38kb per month (only 15gb with 21mbit but this is used in a hour)
and yeah this patch policy from arenanet kittenes me off too – patches are very big and i cant skip them even when i dont wanna play helloween content or stuff like this and the worse is after a patch they patch everyday again something cause they failed testing this content before – sure with fast internet no problem but i have to sit hours on this
oh and 38kb is more than enough to play this game fine once it is donwloaded
Do you think they have an ingame gemstore and updates that revolve new skins because it is all free ? Think again ! I know off people who spend double the price of other MMORPGS a month
i’m a pvper so i sometimes buy new costumes hoping that a new look will breath life in to the 1 game mode and the same 6 maps…it doesn’t XD
i agree with you though, if the game is still going it is because they are making a profit, we should see more content, call me crazy but lets turn it into 2 pvp game modes?! wild eh!
Have you seen the new leaked maps. In Blu’s META show they talked a bit about it. Who knows maybe we get a GvG type of game mode or something. Only speculation but something is definitely on its way.
they leaked this maps over 1 year ago and nothing happens – arenanet just to slow
seriously – when you need 6 months for 4 scraps than you would need 6-7 years for 1 skin anyway
so relax – your playstyle is just to slow and you will never have it when you play like this^^
when noone buy this item from blacklionstore than no point to sell it – thats only reason why they are removed and when you wanna have it go buy it in tradepost
It’s the AOL of MMOs, hitting the market at the right place and time with very aggressive marketing strategies. It hit a high of 12 million players 4 years ago but has been fast falling out of favor since then, losing half of those.
Unfortunately it has spawned an almost rabid fanbase that attacks every new game on the market as DEAD if they haven’t reached WoW numbers. Which is funny when you consider that 94 million have tried and quit WoW.
The game itself is fairly generic, they don’t try new things, just recycle the same quest, gear up and raid stuff over and over. Very grindy and treadmilly.
Not even close, the hardcore crowd hardly ever cheeses fights anyway. You won’t find them standing in the safespot ranging a boss down.
There are safespots where you can range a boss down??
No, what I meant was…you find them stacked in a corner AoEing the crap out of the mobs with guardian reflect up. In fact, almost every single encounter is a form of stack, burn. They use very little strategy beyond stack and burn yet consider themselves awesome players.
Not knocking stack and burn as I’ve used it on many occasions and certainly makes some parts go quicker; just saying that isn’t skill, that’s cheese.
When I PUG FOTM49 or FOTM50 and I’m with the so-called hard-cores, all they want to do is stack here, skip through these, stack there, we pull mobs, blast cooldowns with reflect wall up, maybe have to dodge, skip through these mobs, stack, DPS, stack, DPS. Unless there’s another group of hard-cores somewhere that have a secret society where they purposely don’t stack and burn….
NEWS for you – we are already on side 11 and everyone know now guildwars 2 is easy Thread is about want it like this? or wanna have more chalenge?
If i do ranked PvP i will have the best possible PvP items.
If i do raids i will have the best possible PvE items.
Which is an outdated way to do things. Some people don’t have the time to do raids, should they not be allowed to work towards the best gear in some other manner, or we just resign to the fact that those that have larger chunks of time to play will be the only ones who can get the best gear? This isn’t even a skill issue, it’s a time issue. Raids discriminate people on a time-basis, rarely on a skill basis, as raids aren’t difficult content, they are just really long dungeons.
your way of thinking is the biggest problem the gaming industrie has
when you dont have time to play enough football per week to be good than you never will play in a good team
simple – thats how things work
when you dont have enough time to play it than dont ask for the biggest rewards
A rather cloudy future if they continue with this shallow casual content. If they continue at this pace, we will have 4 maps and 1 more dungeon in 4 years altogether. It’s a joke. There is no single quality-MMO with that little content.
Game is made for this People – for the Casuals
this are the people who waste most money on useless things in gemstore
when you dont wanna play content you can do brainafk while watching tv on second screen you should move on to other games – all so called new content is like this and they will not change this cause it has to be this easy so even the Joe playing with fist on keyboard can complete it in his 25 minutes playtime he has per week – game is made so even the worse casual clicker can feel like a super hero – look at wvw in this game^^
and best is this people dont even wanna be better they like to be bad – just check this forum – ask for only a bit harder content and they all jump on you like insects – so lol
there is no min lvl for ranked games and for a new player it is not easy to find out where he has to go and what is what until he press button and join it
and how ranking/matchmaking works( better i say it dont work^^) in this game can absolut new players be matched with top ranked palyers who care only bout there ranks and leaderbaord or competive games and … all this
so yeah for an PVPer in this game this is horrible to get such people in your team cause it is than an 4v5 and you just wasted 5-10min to wait for a match + 10-15min to lose this match and after this you lose leaderboard ranking/MMR
I’m imagining dozens upon dozens of “Sell all button sold my exotic / precursor / legendary / grandmother” posts on the forums and tickets to support. Doesn’t sound like a good idea.
for this items an window can popup and ask “wanna sell this really?”
And of course I’ve noticed a spike in copper ore and bronze ingot (in an attempt to shortcut) prices and a depression in iron ingot prices since this method’s been discussed.
And players wonder why others don’t like to share their methods of earning a little extra coin.
They start crafting legendaries for profit again soon.
Yes please. And while you guys are on it, please NERF the rewards in EoTM. Nerfing the old champ trains seem like a joke after you introduced a far better farm and leveling map.
The amount of farming and easy leveling in EoTM is really sad from the perspective of veteran GW2, especially WvW players.
so you ask for a Qeue for a map suppost to be a map for everyone on Qeue in wvw? Really?
Eotm is not designed to be balanced and it was not the plan to do so. Its a map you can play while wait for wvw. When you wanna play Eotm only all day than you have to live with this.
you can make this or more alone with the 300 skillpoints you need for a legendary
Making a legendary can be less time consuming that converting skill points into gold.
thats 3th or 4th post you answer me which show you dont have a clue what you even talk about.
so please ……
Uh huh. It can take more time to convert skill points to gold (done through material promotions) than it would be to craft legendary weapons. The additional time is time you could have spent doing other things such as farming gold.
I’ve converted skill points and I’ve crafted legendary weapons. I settled on legendary weapons because it’s much less time consuming and involved as I can just place buy orders and forget about it until the orders are filled.
and again ….
this thread is about legendarys and it need more than only skillpoints and someone would burn 1mio karma + 1x world compelte + 500 dungeon tokens + alot other stuff just to sell his 300 skillpoints? Really? all this for some lil time difference? i dont think anyone on this planet could be this stupid.
I KNOW I CAN CLICK SOWMEHRE ON MY SCREEN
i even can turn off gw2 and the green window goes away
or shut down pc …..
man
it is bout “action” i have to do after pressing buy or sell button which is not needed and just there to be annoying
you clearly never did mass buying or mass selling and you clearly dont even know what the problem is so plz stop answering all my posts (3th or 4th now and it always showed you dont know what you talk bout)
to make it simple – when i buy/sell 500 stacks from something than i can´t just click the buy/sell button again and again while watching tv on other screen, i always have to move my mouse to the next button and back.
the problem is the OK button on this green window is not same place as the buy or sell button on screen before. So when wanna buy more than 1 stack i have to move always my mouse. And this is annoying like hell.
Somebody who had lots of stock, sold it to buy orders.
this
some people stocked up months ago for someday “precursor crafting patch” or “jeweller patch” or “megaserverthing will rise the price” and so on … nothing happend so they throw it back to the marked cause its dead capital …. and when you have to wait tooo long the profit can´t be high enough to not be a loss anyway
this Green Success Pop Up is the Most annoying thing ever
please please please can you remove the ok/close buttons on this pop up and make the complete green thing a button? so i dont needto move mouse everytime and can just click somewhere in this greenwindow to close it?
As a temporary measure until we’ve bumped the number of current transactions loaded from 400 (200 buy, 200 sell) to 2000.
We’re still working on a longer-term fix, as we’re aware that this doesn’t solve the problems for users with a very high number of transactions.
hello Pat
i am a user who has on his second account often 5000-8000 listings (on the old TP) and wanna ask you in this way could you maby make on first side on overview bout the listings? This would be rly rly nice cause looking through 8k listings is annoying like hell^^)
i think on something like this:
First Side:
50240 Leather of whatever
20430 Ore of blabla
74302 Ironwood
74640 Tokens
—— and so on
than a button for “show all” where can scroll through all my listings
and i can click on every item on the First Side and see only my listings from this special item
this would be a very big qol change and i dont think its to hard to make
nice to have on this First Side – Actual price – listed price
thx for your time
edit: just realize the search works on listings too – so nvm – but the overview would be rly nice
I think you are missing a much more obvious reason for this decline.
People were very angry with the NPE patch, and the smack in the face to veteran players that they saw it as. Many players quit with the launch of this feature patch. There are simply less people playing the game now.
Demand is dropping because there are less players. Sell prices are increasing because there are less players to farm the mats in the first place.
Arent the majority of the community PvE players? Miniature collectors, living story heroes, etc.? I dont mean to insult any1 as I’m no1 to tell others what to enjoy in this game… but did the changes really hurt the majority? Did they subvert fractal/dungeon mechanics, did any class get a serious pve nerf?
I dont think that the rightful moaning of the PvP community is enough to explain such a great decline in TP activity. PvE players stayed, didnt they?
Archeage release + drama bout feature patch + nothing new in next weeks, only wvw tournament what none cares bout
when i hear in guild how much gold people have or make than i would say no – people have not enough gold to can buy things in gemshop
and when i think about complete new players and how they need tons gems to make the account playable (bankslots, bagslots, maby 3 more characterslots to have all 8, content he missed in this storything) than i would say no – a new player need to spend money to can play this game
system is fine but it can´t work cause all servers too different
problem is not the system problem is the coverage from all servers and i think its more “motivation” problem
nearly all servers can bring big numbers on reset night but after this only the masochists stay for a week
arenanet schould change tournaments to daylie matchups for 1 week and i bet 1000gold this tournament would have much more players and would be much more fun
