ArenaNet Developers and anyone with the ability to affect the game from the development side:
I am not here to whine and act like an entitled baby. I imagine you guys are working insanely hard during these hectic early launch months and between the launch and the Mad King Halloween Event you guys are probably barely getting enough sleep to qualify as biological creatures. I thank you immensely for your time and effort and I really do love Guild Wars 2.
That said while I believe you are working on solutions please put WvWvW towards the top of your priority list as it is one of the best aspects of the game that is getting absolutely destroyed by issues such as Nightcapping. It it simply not fun to be outnumbered all the time with no chance of fair play. The fact that many match-ups look like my own server’s (Maguuma) tells me this isn’t an isolated issue, and an inherent design problem.
There are excellent suggestions between the entitlement, garbage, and hate in this thread. I imagine they are expensive and extremely time-consuming to implement. I beseech you to do what you can anyway.
WvWvW is one of the aspects that will keep Guild Wars 2 and the long years of development on it worthwhile long after the initial launch rush has died down. It is one of the major aspects of the game that can keep it competing with other MMOs. To have morale on servers dip because not everyone has the time to stay up every night and make sure that the one other server whose members primarily come onto play whilst they sleep is KILLING the game. It’s killing it.
Please make some sort of formal and public commitment to improving WvWvW once the Halloween event is over. I love this game too much to see one of its best and most promising features die on the vine.
