Could we get a screenshot that wasn’t taken from within the walls? If it’s actually outside the map on that cliff, maybe you could take a shot looking up from the wurm? Or has anyone actually checked the jumping puzzle to confirm it’s not there?
The one screenshot that claims to show the treb is very far out.
Only SS I have of it. It was difficult to get since it was placed off the map. A lot of players including myself searched along the cliff wall and in the JP to find a route to it, even all the way to the skritt area and back. Counter trebs and AC were placed in different locations but none could reach it. Reports were submitted by many I am sure there is better screen shots and game cam vids out there some where.
Told you guys before its in the JP. Instead of whinning how about you go inside the JP and get to the top and kill those people. That way you can take a screenshot too to show if its CD or whoever as well.
If CD is really as big and bad as you say them to be, than how come they not T1 with powerhouse servers like Jade Quarry?
No exploits here, just people who too afraid to enter the Jumping Puzzle. All I see is two screenshots facing the JP and people hiding in there garrison like they cant handle combat outside there base, making accusations that its a CD using exploits.
You ever heard of people setting up a treb, trebbing you from the other enemy location, its called diversion, they trying to get you to think its the other team attacking you, so you attack the other team. This is what could be a diversion, since people rarely go into the Jumping Puzzle.
It would help if you could prove it’s CD by screenshoting the player or getting the name by right-click blocking them. You have provided no proof that it is a CD player and this is the first I have heard or seen anything like this, it could be DR. Bay is on DR side of your map this week, although since it does seem to be hacks it most likely doesnt matter. This didnt happen in any CD matchups during seasons so I doubt it is us. And as for Wraith’s accusations, provide SS’s or names, not that it really matters, anet doesnt ban WvW exploiters, they only delete topics about them. Also if it happens again add me to friends and ill go to the jumping puzzle and try to get the guys name from my mini-map if he is infact from CD, that’s the most we can do.
Also in b4 delete.
Your correct it was an only a very certain assumption on my part. I corrected my post best I could. No offence was intended. I just wanted a leader on your server to be info is all. Thank you for the response. No doubt this will be close soon anyways like all other hacking threads.
I’m curious to know how you can be so sure it’s a XXX player if we can’t even see where the treb is. It can be someone from XXX too, no?
We have played one of these server (1) back to back two weeks now with only honest game play observed . Several NSPers have encountered hackers on the other server(2) all match-up. Also server 1 attacked our bay(T3) south outer and inner with a 20 ish man zerg on the gates with rams, while the inner walls on north were completely gone. They were unaware of those walls being down and we held bay. Not one of them came in via the holes in those walls from that treb. I can’t say it with 100% its mbr om server (2) but considering the encounters this week with players on server (2) I can only assume its them. Another NSP player seen the guy on the treb when he jump down to he ground (took no HP damage) and said he was from server (2) but I cannot confirm it. But as another poster said its not about the server its about ANET addressing these hacks. I never post here but this week against server (2) its been over the top something needs to be done. These players on server (2) are casting a dark shadow on their server and their server leaders need to beware of it. Its a game to play for fun why is there a need to cheat(hack) just why lol.
Another screen shot of NSP Bay being trebbed from off the map. You run into hackers here and there in WvW but this is unreal. Zoom hacks, players with no cool downs on skills, stealth when its not possible to do so, giant leaps the list goes on with . I have never seen so much hacking in 2 yrs playing WvW as I have this week.
Forgot to add been here since BETA and yes I enjoyed Wintersday last year so not my first wintersday but have Zero interest in it now. Maybe cause everyone in my guild has quite lol. OFF To WvsW I am sure there is something that needs to die there
Only speaking from my own experiences. Six+ yrs of GW1 GWAMM 50/50 HOM came here with all my GW1 close friends (72 ppl) and a good part of my old 500+ 10 guild alliance from GW1, I kept in contact with most of the guild leaders as I was one also. Three of my close friends out of the 72 that came to GW2 remain and play very little now. I know of only one mbr from my old 500+ ppl alliance remains. All of these players were die hard ANETfans and longtime GW1 players / Vets, most of them since 2005/06. Many left for different reasons but a reoccurring theme as to why they were not happy with GW2 was most of the stuff they loved about GW1 was not put into GW2 (FoW, UW, DOA, guild halls, GVG, HOH, allot of lore ect) and they felt let down. Maybe expectations were just to high after waiting for 5 years on GW2 launch I cannot speak for them all. I have two accounts one in Euro and one in NA because allot of my GW1 friends were from Europe and with the separation of the two regions allot of them were really, really upset about not being able to guess between the two regions when guessing was put into place and quite shortly there after or returned to GW1. I know for my circle of GW1 friends that was a huge issue and they were not pleased at all. After all those years of playing together in GW1, freely between districts they were dumb founded why ANET did that and quite. Anyways those are my own experiences and in no way reflect all GW1 vets/ players. I still see a fair amount of GW1 titles running around. 90% of my time playing GW2 now is in WvsW. I am not a fan of LS or the time gated stuff they have added. GW2 is simply a very different game and ANET seems like a very different company from the one I support for all those years but in time all things change. Sorry for all the text :P
I agree with the OP GW2 AI needs work. But are there factors for this reason that we as the players are unaware of ? Do we assume it was because the dervs didn’t put the time/effort into creating more intelligent AI or was it due to technical limits that may cause lag for example or was it do to the lack of trinity? I have no idea but it is true the AI is lacking for what you would expect from a “new 2012 released MMO”. I too was a longtime GW1 player (almost 6 yrs now) and I agree GW1 was better in allot of ways. Its really sad they didn’t bring more of Guildwars 1 into Guildwars 2; looking at you Guildhalls, GvG, Hall of Heros PvP, More Build options, Storyline, Lore Depth, guild alliances to name a few but it is not better in every aspect. You have to be objective when comparing GW1 with 7+ years of content / updates too GW2 with only 1 year plus. In my opinion it all comes down to player expectations of what was marketed as a new and vastly improved Guildwars 2 over Guildwars 1. Which has failed some of us ArenaNet fans in relation to what we expected and what was delivered. As an example, I was in a 900 member alliance in GW1 with many longtime players that waited 5 years for GW2. Most came to GW2 (200+ at least) and there are 3 of us left playing after 1 year. That’s my personal example, I am sure there is many other examples of this from disappointed GW1 players. I do enjoy parts of this game (WvsW but lately O.o hmm) but it sure does not hold my interest as Guildwars did, anyways I am off topic. AI sure could use some love when it comes to their skill sets / evades / mob team work. With that said I think there is allot more important areas to improve, end game for one.
I have this happen allot. I have reported it many times with the in game support tool for bugs and it still happens. I have been completely out of combat and health will not regen, Swapping avatars will reset it but why should I have too, to reset my health after combat, very frustrating and is not fun. I have waited 3 min plus for it to reset at times and yes I move completely moved away to a safe area to try and have it reset , sometimes that works sometimes it doesn’t. I am curious how often the in game reports are review because these things don’t seem to get addressed, re-spawn rates in certain areas are another great example of this broken since launch and still not addressed.
+1 well said you just summed up GW2 in one post lol. Allot of good points I find myself playing less and less everyday. I stopped doing the living story its a job not fun anymore and same for dailies for me if I complete it great if I don’t I don’t care anymore its not fun its a chore. This game has little to no depth story wise it needs real new content not time gated farming dailies bahhhhhhhh..
No I never use my Ele in PVE well haven’t since leveling her up 10-11 months ago. So I can’t agree or disagree with you on that statement. I just think the class needs more balance between DPS & Support with in its viable builds. My play style is geared towards consistent pressure. I do not zerker or bunker but I find with the Ele class you tend to need to lean towards bunker due to low Hp.
Some awesome stuff here, but please don’t forget about focus on Elementalist. Only half the skills on it are useful right now. It really needs to be reworked heavily! There’s a good topic about it in the Elementalist sub-forum.
I also really hope Ele staff can be more viable in the future. It’s way too slow right now and is pretty much only good for providing combo fields and some CC (in WvW zergs). D/D, S/D, and S/F are all more viable than staff even in PvE, but especially so in WvW/sPvP.
^ I agree. This post is good news and I hope ANET continues with informing their Players ( paying customers ) more like this in the future, so well done on that Mr Sharp thank you. Now to the Ele Class, I agree with Gilburt I play all classes in PVE and a Ele/Mes/Guard/ in WvsW. Ele’s really do need some attention not just for Staff but overall as a class it needs a rework . I think Ele as a minimum should be as viable and on equal ground with its fellow caster classes (-nerco-mesmer) from what a class can bring to the table for my team from a support and DPS perspective. I look forward to these coming changes and how they will actually play out.
