After a break I thought I would check this game out and see what has changed. I too am having the same issue. I have an XFX r7770. Guess I wont be back till this is resolved. Did anyone else find a solution to the problem?
Its a numbers game and some poeple dont understand that maybe 10% is skill based on the rare occasion fights are equal. Once ESO starts to pick up WvWvW will rebalance again. I just hope the ESO people have learn from the problems we face in wvw.
Speaking of server population. I have noticed when I log into Blackgate I dont end up in overflow many times like I used to as of late. Could be some have moved on or decided to take a break as our numbers do look thin this week in WvWvW. I still enjoy a good fight. See you on the battle field.
This is make or break for WVW in my opinion. The question is now how will this effect computer performance. Could it make things worse? Yes we will have the ability to adjust settings but to what extent will some players have to lower their settings to play WVW if at all.
So this is what happened to me about a month ago at a camp. A thief did the same thing to me after I started getting the best of him/her. I was like wth. There was a witness there and we both had never seen it. We thought it was a hack and the other guy kept saying they are hacking report them. Glad I didnt as I now know its just OP gear that dont belong in WVW.
Yes indeed it spreads like wild fire all over the net.
On another note, I will have to watch the development of Elder Scrolls Online. It is supposed to have a WVW style pvp. Could just be another GW2 clone. We will see. Thats why i bought this game, for balance and skill and no treadmill. I dont do dungeons and dont like to.
The point is to go to a lower server population to stop the long Q times. Anet would then be able to add maps accordingly. At which point Anet could stop transfers once they balance out.
There was a thief from Fort Aaspenwood doing the same thing last night. We had 20 people AOEing and could not target him nor turn the camp to ours. Each time he would hold till his server showed up to wipe us.
Not one server is better than the other as Mag has the numbers during the day while DH has them during the evening and night. As for the Mes bubble zerg. It is not a good tatctic in my opinion. It does not allow players to be spread out in the map defending different areas at the same time. Do not rush the bubble. Stand back and range them down. We have done it many times. When we stand back we can see clearly who we are aiming for.
I am on Darkhaven and have been from day one. Dont get me wrong, I love this server. What upsets me is that we did not have these numbers last week when we were losing. We have many on our server that need to man up and get into the fight even during during those times when we are not fairing well. Good job Furgersons Crossing hanging on to your Borderland. You guys have heart.
I dont know enough to speak about DH numbers at night as most of the time I log off by 12AM central. What I do notice is DH is outnumbered during the day mostly by SF. Another thing I see is DH as almost always double teamed during the day by both servers. I think we hold our own well considering. I just wish the expoits would be dealt with. I have had much fun and will continue to see you all on the field of battle.
Sadly my brother just quit because of the state of WvW. He said he would rather deal with WOW’s flaws than GW2’s. Guess I should have not bought him the game.
Suggestion, stop free transfers and don’t allow Oceanic on US servers. If it stays like this I suggest 12 hour battles until its resolved. It gives all the chance to play in their own time slot and have wins.
I created a thread earlier. The problem is as long as Arenanet offers free realm transfers this will happen and create imbalance. I have seen people transfer during battle
to the winning realm hence larger groups/worlds dominating smaller worlds.
As long as people keep transferring to the winning world for free rankings mean nothing IMHO. It creates imbalance and discourages others from joining in.
