Guild Wars 2

I do belive in MMR hell, I was stuck in it at the first season, sapphire or emerald hell.
On the second season I managed with great effort to go to legendary.

On the current season I have a 90% win rate.

What I did : I stopped grouping, I stopped playing, I got good with other classes, I played only meta.

lol people can’t seem to understand that simultaneous is going down because the other one is going up, while the show me result doesn’t change, meaning that even after getting rid of the 4.x% of the show me results to remake a 100% based on the first two answers, the simultaneous still is going down.

The only reason simultaneous is going down at such a constant rate is because the vote is rigged, used as a smokescreen.

The vote is rigged, 2:1 BL MUs would be too much of a trouble to code.

Hexinx.1872:

Actually they are slightly not the same.

In Alpine… taking the northern towers provides an alternate avenue to attack the garrison.

In DBL … taking the northern towers means, you took a northern tower. I don’t believe there is anything else.

bro you can’t look at a thing only from an attacker point of view.
let me show you.

In alpine – defending the northern towers almost certainly forces the attacker to use the water gate, making garrison easily defendable.

So that’s not really an argument for alpine being different than desert.

Elementalist Owner.7802:

One server having a different BL might not be fair.

I don’t get it.
Why having a desert bl as home bl would not be fair ? The mechanics of the maps are exactly the same.

that moment when anet changes the order of the answers of the poll – if that is not trying to influence the result my name is trump

So the new poll about “the future of WvW” is basically about bringing us to the past once again? Trying to shove us the desert borderlands in our throats ?

Illconceived Was Na.9781:

Not sure why you consider my asking why your mailbox is full as asking for “justification” — it was a question meant to help troubleshoot the issue. For better or worse, ANet’s imposed a low limit on the number of emails we can save, which also affects how easy it is to accept coin via mail.

I don’t see how your question can help in any way troubleshoot the issue, if you are not assuming that I don’t handle my mailbox correctly. This question also asked for private data I really don’t want to expose on this forum, it would expose my account to possible attacks from hackers, thus your question was not appropriate.
Anet did in fact imposed a low limit in the mail box, but this is not relevant to the subject, as it is clearly the reset time/day of the gold limitation we are talking about, the fact that we have 10 mails limitation, or could have 100 doesn’t change anything at all. The only possible way these two topics come into connection is when, just like happened right now to me, a deficit on one has effects the other, but as mentioned above, I don’t care about how many mail we can have, but I don’t want to arrive in a situation where I can’t take mails only because of poor data clarification.

EDIT : And about the wiki, well maybe you are right, but this relevant data isn’t in the guildwars2 wiki but in the costumer service wiki, something nobody but Anet can edit.

I don’t I have to justify myself on how I handle my mailbox.

It reset yesterday late in the EU morning. Please update data on the wikis so people aren’t misslead.

Still didn’t reset. My mailbox is full and I can’t even do anything about it….

Yo,
I want to change stat on those new orange SAB weapons, they have a nice infusion i don’t want to loose (animated infusion) – will the infusion be lost by the result of weapon changing stats using the forge recipe ? Or only the sigils ?

According to this :
https://help.guildwars2.com/entries/92202098-Wealth-Transfer-Restrictions-Mail-Guild-Bank-

The gold limitation via mail should reset on Sunday 12:01am, yet it didn’t reset this week.

when is the patch QQ

Second video of my Animated Gameplay series, was asking myself if I should post this since I left Anguîsh [Ash] untill I told myself kitten it. Warning – Venom Sharing enabled.
Don’t forget that I am making these videos for fun, because this is what it’s all about.

Sup,

So you are currently working on grind-free gw2?
Here some cool news. Unlike Colin Johanson & Mike O’Brien stated on that famous video, that WvW is actually part of PvE, WvW players know that it should be part of PvP. The only players that say WvW is PvE are PvP trolls.

In PvP what do you have ? Insta changable stats. Well time has come that you bring that into WvW as well, just make a legendary armor and weapons usable only in wvw, buyable with those, currently, useless Badges of Honor.

Hi,
I currently have 11 achievements in the Year of the Ascension part 3, yet it shows to me that I have only 8 on the Path of the Ascension 3 meta achievement:

_League Slayer
_League Professional
_League Top Stats
_League Necro
_League Guard
_League Reve
_Mystic Essence Collector
_Essence Collector
_League Champion
_League Dominator
_Wings Of Glory

Yet I am at 8/11.

I support the idea of this topic.

1 – Remove WvW gamemode from the classic dev plan of the game.
2 – Do not allow the marketing section of the company to interfere with any content release.
3 – Listen to this tread, most of it makes sense
4 – Actually have Anet devs who enjoy playing GW2 instead of LoL.
5 – More player vs player content, less bullkitten like the ACs or airstrike.

Hey guys,

The french tournament Tyrian Guild Wars 2 League started yesterday it’s poules phases.
In this tournament different players from various french guilds are put, by a system of betting, scaled on their experience, in different teams. A player would register, then be given a mark (or price) depending his experience in the GvG scene. Then, chosen team captains would get an amount of money based on their experience as well. The captains, with this money, then buys players to make a roster of 19-20 players.
Each team then fights in a tournament, for glory and e-kitten size.

Yesterday, my team, the Rata Sum Golems, fought the Hoelbrak Bears. In this video you will see 2 rounds from my PoV – FP DH yolotp.

As usual, I hope you enjoy the video.

The thing is I don’t loose 2 pips, only when I win I gain 2. Meaning that the MMR litterally puts me in every unfavorable matchup possible, and that sometimes I overcome that, but still loosing on the long run

Hey. I have a strange MMR, loosing streak loosing pips then wining 2 pips, repeat, loosing streak, wining to win 2 pips.
Is that normal ?
Doesn’t wining two pips means I won an unfavorable mu ? Why do I keep having those loosing streaks ?

Glicko-2 is the MMR used by Arenanet in pvp. It is most commonly used in chess. The problem in GW2 : it does not include the number of games played.
Thus, if you are a good player with a volatile RD, or a medium player, well you can always have a fresh player into your game.
It literrally happened to me two games ago, my MMR is maybe medium, but I don’t really wanna have players saying “what happens if we kill lord” in my team.

The question is in the title, it’s ridiculous that a new system is in place and the MMR isn’t rebooted. Are my bad plays from 3 years ago really gonna follow me around?

Hey guys,

Before you read about my point of view, it’s important for me to present myself. I have around 3k+ hours in WvW now, mostly as a guard where i go by Enns. I was in some PvD guilds, that played for the points, and GvG guilds that played to be the top EU guild and suceeded in doing so.
Now let me define my definition of a True WvW Player.
A True WvW Player will love fights.
A True WvW player thinks objectives of capturing and defending are cool because they give fights another environement, another scenery.
A True WvW Player hates things that give a ridiculous advantage to the ennemy, like arrowcarts or cannons.
A True WvW Player doesn’t care about winning a Matchup, he cares about winning his fights.
A True WvW Player wants to get rewards by beating big amounts of players, not keep lords.
A True WvW Player wants to have fun.

Now that you know who I am, and that you understand what is a True WvW Player, I can explain why the new WvW maps is good for true WvW players.

For long there was a disjonction between players in WvW. The players that played for the karma, the players that played for the Matchup win and the players that played for the fights. These 3 types of players never could have coexisted peacefully as the objectives of each are different.

One needs the most people to farm as fast as possible.
One needs the most people to defend and attack objectives as effectively as possible.
One needs only a few, but couldn’t handle big blobs generated by the two above.

And now, with the new WvW maps, well the two first simply ceased to exist. Karmatrainers will prefere EotM, and PPTers well will go extinct (and that’s actually good).
And this is why, as a True WvW Player, you can enjoy these maps. Well not now, because they are simply to bad for anything, but as soon as Anet will change them (eventually not to far away in the future).
Because these terrible maps that are in place today helped for the transition towards a Better WvW. A WvW without karmatrainers, or PvDers, a WvW without PPTers, a WvW full of True WvW Players.

Thanks Arenanet.

Yeah… Devs play gw2 a lot.. Kappa

Who the heck talked about NPCs ?

Hi there,

Making a post to protest against the overwhelming pve-everywhere current politics of Guild Wars 2. Why, in a WvW gamemode, a gamemode of pvp, Guild Wars 2 is introducing pve mechanics since launch.
I am talking about two big changes – EotM and the future HoT map. Both are so pve oriented or “pvp for fun” oriented that it is disapointing.

Do you play pvp @Arenanet ? Do you know what pvp is about ? Yeah sure fun, but not fun like you understand it apparently. It isn’t fun to wait for a long time for people just push them off cliffs, or fighting under siege.
PvP is mostly about being better in the same conditions without any external condition that can affect your victory – win because you deserve it. Win because you are better. Loose and understand that your opponent is better, and in the future try to improve to win.

But no, it looks like Guild Wars 2 takes PvP essence put it in a mixer with pve, add the spice of casualyness, and pours it in the game.
Of course EotM looks amazing, of course the next WvW map is gonna look amazing as well, BUT THEY ARE NOT SUITED for pvp. They are not in the same spirit of pvp. They are suited for an open world map of pvp – not for a specialized gamemode.

Unite, both players and developers, for a brighter pvp future in wvw.

Yeah ? What did I tryed in your opinion ? Isn’t there a dev saying “we’re ignoring what people are saying about solo vs premade” ?

Hey guys ! Let’s make a top official forum screenshots we have !

Here I start with mine :

Hey guys,

New type of video, hope you like it :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VkOpdMEqmjo

Already 1k view in less than 24h, thanks a lot people, you are the ones that make the gvg community alive.

read title, play your game to understand where and how.

Hey guys,

Creating this topic for the series of videos I will be making – GvG Commentary with Team Aggression [TA].

First two videos of the series are against Visceral Effect [vE] and Vendetta [VnT].

Tell me if you like them, and what you want to see on the next videos !

Wake up and start working on a fix you lazy kitten devs.

Everything works great, untill that FPS bug appears.
It’s really random, can appear after 1 hour or 5 hours of gaming. Then there is a sudden fps cap bug that blocks the fram per second to a very low number (from 15 to 6) getting graphic settings down doesn’t help, only a reboot of the game does.

Also the game has troubles quitting on this bug (ctrl alt delete with task manager is required because the game isn’t responding)

Correct ASAP

@Schtizzel : heard about GW1 before talking about DAoC ? Your first argument is invalid as Gw1 had 8 man parties.
For the second one, is that too hard to imagine a boon cap pushed to 9 instead of 5 ?

Sure, that’s why most of the packages are lost in Dallas. You talk a lot with assumptions.

@Hule ever tryied to actually check something before talking ?

Getting dcs every night now. It comes on a sudden lag spike then code 7 appears. I have a 30mb internet, and playing with a VPN (wtfast) – my connection to the game is stable, no spikes nothing BUT the game indeed disconnect me.

About time we need some textures for the r80 finisher. And please don’t tell me that this grey whitish plastic is the intented textures.

@JohnPeters : don’t look at guild halls like you do, “a feature that could change gw2 as a whole”, just look at it like a feature that will just make players happy because they wanted and asked it for so long.

Red team lost cause they didn’t had enough engis

They are doing very strict internal testing before releasing a patch – so this must be intended.

No no no having an elite skill that one shot people is clearly work as intented – just like the rapid fire buff on the ranger.

An idea for developement Arenanet : stop developing the game with the living story and buy EU more servers. The lag is clearly out of control here.

My question for the devs will be simple : how do you test the upcoming changes regarding the different professions ? Do you even do that ? Do you even think about a possibility of a one-skill-one-kill from 1500 distance can arise from the changes you make ?
