Guild Wars 2

sweet video ogre. was worth waiting for it hope to see more vids soon.

Greetings,
I wanted to let you all know about the progress we have been making on the new area in the Obsidian Sanctum jumping puzzle. We’ve been taking feedback and testing the area and we are planning to release the new version of the map in November, barring any unforeseen difficulties. The changes to the map will remove the Borderlands Bloodlust buff from players in the map and will introduce a brand new area of the map laid out for large player fights. We are also adding the map to the dropdown menu so that players will be more quickly able to enter the map from anywhere, without being required to load into Eternal Battlegrounds.
We hope these changes will create a better WvW experience for everyone while providing a space for players to explore the large scale fights that have organically grown up around the game.
I, personally, would like to give thanks to the WvW team which has done a ton of great work in a very short period of time to make this happen quickly and to accommodate the feedback we have received. We hope you enjoy the new space and thanks for playing!

well i cant wait to see or this gonna work. It’s faster in the game then i expected

So all guilds get that rustyness out and get training ^^

GL To EVRYONE (if this update is what we needed :P)

srry to JQ for the dudes that runned inside woodhaven on jqbl they glitched through the door we said to jump out think most did

Greetings,
We’ve recently begun work on finding a reasonable space to accommodate the desires of players in World vs. World who wish to participate in organized, large-scale battles. We have decided to add an area to the Obsidian Sanctum jumping puzzle that is large enough to fit the fights and is removed from the entrances to facilitate some of the basic rules that are used during these fights. In addition, we will be disabling the borderlands bloodlust buff inside the map so that the players will be on a relatively even playing field. Finally, to make it easier to get to the map, we’ll be adding the map to the dropdown menu of WvW maps, allowing you to enter it from anywhere in the game. The space being added is really amazing and I think you are all going to enjoy battling it out in there if it is your preferred way to play. We decided to put this area in the jumping puzzle with the hopes of providing a space for people who wish to play the game this way to be able to do so without causing friction between them and other players who wish to focus on the other aspects of the game in WvW.
Guild vs. Guild is a gametype that has a lot of potential and one that we would never do anything but the best possible version of. That version, if it comes, will have to wait until the resources are available to build it. This change is an attempt to provide a workable solution in a timely manner, one that will ease some of the conflict that we have seen arise on the forums and in the game. WvW is an incredibly successful and engaging part of our game. It will continue to be a major focus for us as a studio and we will continue to put our effort into changes that are in the best interests of WvW as a gametype and the WvW community as a whole.
As is our practice, we won’t be releasing this until it is ready to go.

just put pret and trix in a golem and let them fight it out.

wrex commanding IRON like a bawz

lovly gvg EP. you guys where a kittening hard but fun. i rlly apreciated those fights and learned alot of you guys. It was fun to fight a top gvg guild (with all respect to our previous oppenent). imo you guys are number 1 na and you guys deserve it. if we beat a-net in their mission to destroy gvg i happly wanna do it again. and rlly tyvm for the learning we did from it.tips are always welcome

ps: if i see that thief and mesmer again in wvw be rdy for some payback

cheers IRON

Shifty.4985:

Great fights with TC in their Garri thank you all for your loot xoxo

now you can give all your lot to cuddles shifty muahahahahah

so if their is anything else that you find weird plz post a picture or vid of the problem. their where some thing that needed explanation and some things we did wrong i addmit but we didnt cheat imo. and still no reason to put those spectators in the fight maybe kittening ask why somethign happend next time kitten . true with used things to get little advantages but why cant KH do it and why did KH rlly wanted that side the whole gvg long (imo somethign to get a little advantege) normally you switch in the middle of the gvg.

we things like this before and other gm of enemy guilds asked about it afther the round and wrex explained things like that

@ assasin of warr.9517

“so at +/- 13:20 on the one of 17 mins i see a iron ele on the hill cast a spell and go down again”

He was pretty close to the “field” but still in the spectators area I’d say.

he’s at the edge imo. he cast 1 or 2 spells and go down again so explain how that is hiding inside spectators.

Elwin.2583:

Is it GvG or Spectatros vsG than? just asking. I was only watching fight, but in my opinion that makes no sense

you might want to bg or jq for that one it is no different for their usual pvd during eu time. so they have to GvS

You in love with SoR bro? Go back to your own thread. Everything you say in every post is linked to SoR. You seem obsessed.

pfft leave him alone! Im kinda in love with BG O.o

your in love with cuddles thats diffrent shifty :P

spanky.4630:

Deyja.6745:

http://www.twitch.tv/cookiesforthewin two videos are up from a spectators POV. Our ele is currently in the process of uploading his POV.

You cheated repeatedly, the longer of the two videos contains more but the first video also contains some of the evidence. It was discussed with your guild leader that what you were doing was unacceptable and you were asked to stop and as a result of your inability to follow the rules of the GvG it was not worth our time continuing.

I wasn’t there but as an officer of iron I want to hear from a KH member if they are accusing iron of cheating ? are you from KH come on show your tag? Also your vid shows that the spectators are really to close and shouldn’t have been standing there in the first place if your going to be picky

so at +/- 13:20 on the one of 17 mins i see a iron ele on the hill cast a spell and go down again
in the 2nd vid i see one IRON guy not reping another guild so indeed that was our fault and could be confusing. about the ppl that where shouting about the iro nguy in the forrest well their is a explenation for he dc’d. he told us he dc’d and he need to fix his kitten. i dont saw him back in that round so yes plz say where cause i dotn see it. next round he was back and said it was fixed.
around 18 mins i see you saying we use those tactics like using the windmill true its not the clearest thing to do but you can give me a rule that says its not allowed to do it.
at 29 mins i see the spectators killing our thief so y who used spectators? you said it yourself.

Astaroth.5146:

Hmm…the windmill thing felt a little weird but we didn’t make a lot of it except adjusting our movements to make sure the fights wouldn’t happen close to it anymore. The issue was mainly using the crowd that were there to watch as cover/camouflage to regenerate health, get out of combat and free cast on our team. Running almost to the supply camp to get out of combat and come back full health is also something we didn’t like from the fights.
So score aside, I personnaly didn’t have fun fighting IRON…I was really disappointed. Not because IRON claim they have won. I couldn’t care less about winning or losing. It’s only that I was expecting good fights and IRON didn’t deliver. Not that you are bad, it could have been fun fights. It’s the way you fight, whatever you say, it wasn’t a clean fight.
One thing I’m giving you though, the end got unessessary messy. IRON was fast to come to the forum to try to claim victory and justify their behavior with strong argument like “you mad bro” and “every good gvg guild does it” and blaming KH about the involvement of the crowd at the end…involvement that was unfortunate.
So by this logic the final score should be 5-1 for KH with 1 nil game right? 1 game IRON won fair and square, they really outplayed KH on that one. Then 5 other match for KH, the result of the fights themselves are irrelevent here since IRON involved the spectator in their fight so victory for KH x 5. The last match could be given to KH too since the crowd only responded because IRON was again involving their crowd in the fight but since we can’t counter a wrong by another wrong, I’ll just consider that match nil. Makes sense no?

well yes we use things like the spectators hill and windmill. BUt you can say whats the problem its part of the battlefield and we dont stand in it. we mostly use that part for some ranged cause its highground to see more of the fight. btw no spectaters are involved. those ranged are on the edge of it and all the iron spectators rep another guild so kinda the iron the edge of that hill and in the gvg all other tags are not dont rlly see the prob of it. so here is your argument and all the things we did to let ppl that wanna moan give nothing to moan on.

ps: i was never ooc if you say we use for that show me a vid where 1 of iron is regening on that hill or a iron hiding inside the spectators of that hill and not on the edge.

Elwin.2583:

I am not speaking as a KH representive official statement at first.
What really made us mad was that abusing of spectators, we think also windmill was cheating but guess maybe becasue we think its out of arena to fight and thats our mistake. Sure our leader did wrong caling that rush at battle #7, shouldnt happen.

so whats it now? are we cheating or not? and why decline the score on gw2gvg.com then? and why let your spectators running in the final fight?

cheers for the answers

can i got a respond from anyone of KH?
Are you guys moanign about the fatc we use things like the windmill in a gvg?(its just a question i wanna know what you guys say we doing to cheat?)

ogro can you pm wrex.6798
we need your opinion about some creepy stuff

Deyja.6745:

When half of IRON runs into the spectators whenever they get low and then drop combat by running north into the trees and using the ramp at the windmill your guild should be embarrassed and the video will be up shortly showing exactly how pathetic IRON is.

in my opinion its using the terians. we let our spectators rep another guild so enemy guild see its only those 15. i mean its the battlefield where we play so you can use the terain. i mean KH used the terain start advantage (having the higher start spot and not wanna switch in the middle of the rounds). BTW ask RISE,meow about our gvg we play the game fair. and wqhen its 3-3 and then rush their spectators in is respactable?. Is their any guild we can ask you about how respectable you are about your gvg tactics?(instead of ns cause you know they record it) ow and we recorded it too so y gl

IRON is open for GVG’s
at latest 11/12pm bst
or friday we can sea too
pm wrex.6798

some serious wvw between iron and ESOL+HB

tyvm for the fight. the fights where awesome and ofc the ubber serious 1v1 golem match was fun

Squidlips.3817:

assasin of warr.9517:

so why does a bg guild leader asks sor for a 30v30 night and we see this. Does the bg guilds talk to each other about this kind of things?

Is this really even worth posting? Sorry to be a wet noodle, but I just did a quick count and I see 50 nameplates there, and I can only conclude the following:

1) That’s really not that absurdly large of a group. Vale is a difficult cap and can be a huge gamechanger on taking the steam out of a server’s push without 250/250 sitting there at all times.
2) That’s a pug group, there is no majority guild representation in there or anything close to it.

I’m all for hating on huge megablobs, but this is just a rather large group of randoms you have there, do you really expect one of the like, two ESOL guys from that group to come in here and be like, “Oh sorry dudes, I’ll tell all these random motherkitteners to stop doing objectives together.”

thats group 1 their was a 30 man ca group on the entrance. Those 2 groups hopped from eb to bg when we did

so why does a bg guild leader asks sor for a 30v30 night and we see this. Does the bg guilds talk to each other about this kind of things?

Thank you to SOR and FEAR (using troll guild tag) for interrupting the DA vs ONS GvG several times. We took the time to set up a match on a map that was completely overrun anyway and you felt the need to troll our fight not once, but several times.

We had to call the match early because we were unable to finish a fight uninterrupted.

GvG’s take time to schedule and coordinate. We had members rearrange their schedules to participate. If you don’t GvG thats cool, but please respect the time of people that do.

I’m sorry to read this. This is unacceptable behavior; please do not believe that this is the behavior or mindset of the general server.

there’s no need to be an apologist dude, I doubt it will be appreciated cuz of all the bags that likely spawned, Assuming both bg and jq were wiped of course

I would be upset if someone decided to interrupt a GvG I was participating in.

and so you apologise for the server? please speak for yourself, according to what the people say, , they were attacking Bay while they were donig gvging, a tier 2 bay, forces came in, and afterwards what happens? both groups attack garrison while Ddosing and get wiped, and are both later kicked off the map by FEAR, theres only one loser here, well, several

stop atcing him. Its not his fault about what happend their and btw both bg and JQ doing it too sometimes. yesterday in sea time jq blob zerging a gvg. Or the respect that bg have for the gvg:“pull the biggest guild out for a gvg vs bg guild” then on the exact moment the gvg start we see WM(who was gvging),MERC,ND in a atc on 3 keeps at the same time. dunno seems very respectfull from jq’s and bg’s side too. (or am i wrong? and is this way better behaviour then FEAR’s?)

PredatoR.5247:

If [Agg] were to travel to an EU server, would guilds stay up to GvG us on weekends?

Weekends at around 7-8 pm PST time

Its possible but both guilds need to find a comp. We are a EU guild in Na server and most of our gvg’s are vs Na guilds. The time we mostly use is around 11-12 or 1am GMT. But its very important to set time and date few days before match so both guilds can check or they get enough ppl of their gvg squad on

Nakoor.1980:

May the best man win (Not Indo).

is Indo a man? o_O. kittening hell parver dont let me scare like that!

Waage.2047:

Garrison held. That is all.

this is no troll post just a q we where talking about it yesterday so plz no stupid answers!!!!! (or i sent shifty or star to troll you dam guys (evil laugh))

waage was rk online last few days didnt saw you guys in a while?

Smokee.1754:

Jahn.7019:

You just said you don’t have a lot of people but you want good fights.

Stop being so sensitive and go GvG.

Ive been called alot of things, but never sensitive.. Are you flattering me? Im sorry to say this, but your not my type..

we as IRON wanna gvg HB. But HB dont wanna instead they go to forums to say they are outnummberd. kinda weird. (btw smokey you should practice your maths sometimes your 15-18 ppl look kinda big)

Zikory.6871:

In reply to assasin of warr.9517.

I don’t normally agree with SoR, even more so IRON but he is on point for the most part. Blackgate is more PPT focused than GvG focused and we have less GvG guilds then most other servers. Most of what I said above is mostly about our NA time as I rarely play EU/OC/SEA (just to clear that up) His point on canceled and stopped GvG’s only proves how much GvG’s doesn’t negatively effect T1 NA from Blackgates point of view.

And for a little BG EU guilds defense I don’t believe any of our EU guilds GvG so I’m not sure about the credibility of them turning you down because of PPT but as you know the EU time slot play style is much different then NA because of population, so I you be right. I’m not in a EU guild so I can’t call you a lier

with the eu part i mean we challenged bg’s eu forces for gvg’s (even practice ones). they say no cause we need ppt hold ppt. and okay but if we gvg a guild and an other guilds of bg looks and laugh to that guild for losing i find it pathetic

k guys i m from SOR so i compete with this dudes server so i m not neutral. But ma guild is trying to get into the gvg scene and i say 1 thing Bg (the server this dude is from) is a PPT server. some facts: we got gvg’s canceld/stopped cause the guilds needed to go back playing the ppt cause he’s too low. other thing. we are a eu guild in na server. we play most of our fight in na time cause the guild that do eu on the other servers say “we cant gvg cause we need to hold the ppt”. Its a other mentality and if they like to play that way they can play that way.

to all ppl that laugh wiht iron scared to fight or the IRUN joke. if you want a even number fight do a gvg with us. Dont see the prob of it its even numbers but for some reason their are only few BG guilds that wanna fight us. Other guilds are too scared and use the forums to laugh with us. like the “we run from 15bg joke”. lets do a 15v15 (+counting them cause some bg got weird maths). So forum trolls grab your balls and fight us instead of typing this is a challenge lets see or you guys only play the forums or the game too.

Ps: Star why am i the shifty bully (its true tho)
This is not to all BG guilds. this is to the guilds that talk big on forums but are too scared to show a fight cause “we run”

some ubber IRON trolling

Yeah, I have seen that type of trolling done before by IRON…unfortunate but to them, probably in good fun…..till someone does it back to them and then they beat tail out of the BLs to EB…..

IRON switching borders for various reasons = running

Rigel and HB seeing IRON tags and changing direction towards a keep = not running

IRONy as good as it gets haha

EDIT: Rigel are you you in HB or was it RK now? cant remember. Either way the same will apply, you run

or IRON getting call something get atc in other bl and they need help. IRON hops to that bl. BG see that and insta think IRON runs away.

So tip if you want IRON on your bl and see us hoppy stop atcing kitten in other bl’s and come out of towers. It’s not that hard tbh

like i said its the diffrence waha focus bg. bg stop playing. waha focus sor. waha got trolled. dunno i choose the sor side in this its funny here but hey if you like aim ppt and if it dont work dont play. your choise. i m happy with mine

Stealth.8150:

sor ts daily update

maybe thats the diffrence between SOR and BG. BG stop playing and SOR do something

some ubber IRON trolling

about the focus fire thing. i dont think ghosts are the big thing. If you fight a guild you see much in wvw you know their wvw rank of sertain ppl. so in my opinion you can still focus fire based on the wvw ranks of your oponents.

hey mighty gvg kings (or old mans)

in one of our last gvg’s we had some probs with warthogs. Not the enemy guild but just random ppl bringing the warthogs in the fight and causes some rally’s that shouldnt be their also (again random ppl not the guild we fought they where fair) ppl that jump in the fight and atc us during the gvg’s. any tips/solutions to avoid/minimise those anoying this

cheers

gg RISE nice gvg

5-0 IRON but the fight where way closer then the scores says it was not a stomp you guys are rough as kitten but seems we had a little edge evry fight. for the same it was 5-0 RISE i was kittening nervous evry fight

cheers and gl in your next GVG’s

IRON

gg meow gvg was rlly fun hoped you guys enjoyed it too.learned alot. thesparring roundsare so fun^^. i like to do crazy stuff i m not allowed of wrex she’s mean T_T. btw that dude at the bow moment if a sneaky kitten :P. he killed me

Thanks ESOL for the fun GvG tonight. It was late (especially after the delay), but worth waiting for.

I think it’s an understatement when I say WE CAN’T WAIT

dear RISE

here is a vid of the last GVG fight between ESOL and IRON

its about 1:10 in the vid
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4U3NwfTNSzQ

best regards IRON

IMPOSTER! jk, I dunno I wasn’t online for that, they probably just needed an extra guy

dear RISE,
can you ask jarvan why he did it plz cause i found it not rlly fair that a dude from another guild plays in a other guilds gvg. its the same like IRON take TW members in their gvg team.

cheers IRON

They hugged me too tightly

srry about the jumping it was part of a masterplan to get in one of your score updates. didnt work out. working on a new one

o_O lol to your source titan. We tottaly gonna believe you if your say you have a source that must verry good mate btw here some screens from the guild pannel. the fact you mention we got 300-400 members make me believe you complety mate. you get good info from your “source”

PS: if you take a spy take a good one and pryan says his secret tactics for next week in map chat

Shifty.4985:

Gz on finally taking our bay, how much siege did you use overall?

dont forget bg dont pvd they wanna fight so thats why all their guild atc at once in 3 diffrent bl’s

Waage.2047:

Offski.4897:

MagiKarp.8201:

I don’t think so Renmei

Oceanic no way,

SEA maybe, but if SoR had the same SEA as BG (they have more than JQ now) it would be that fabled “HoD 2.0”.

But I don’t think SoR needs any help in SEA right now as they have the sweetest ride in every other timezone. Only reason recently we’ve been able to break SoR’s WP’s during SEA is because ATM isn’t kicking us in the sides every night, I mean they could so easily make us lose this matchup by focusing nothing but us, but Waha isn’t a fool.

It would be interesting to see how well jq would do if ATM actually fought for points for jq, tried to upgrade jq’s keeps/border etc rather than focusing sor with yourselves.

I agree though it is what helps BG compete with SoR. Bg does ok during EU time until east coast NA starts to come on, the real problem for BG is NA and I have no idea why BG does not perform better in that timezone.

Is this a joke?? Don’t take this the wrong way i know your kind of on edge every time i point something out, but you do know how time zone exchanges work right??

When EU comes online we have a few upgraded keeps in both BG and sometimes in the borderlands. From there we can push out from defended positions and in case of a massive zerg we can pull back and bog it down forcing you to commit more and more forces. HOW EVER your number right now are so big that at the end of the night where RK is the only on with active commanders and only have about 5-10 guilded on we get over run.

Then we go into NA with Paper borderland. From there your NA have the advantage and can defend all the way and keep the high PTT while keeping the pressure on us. The nights where we can leave EU with some Waypointed and defended Keeps our NA do quite well.

Right now with your EU outnumbering us on such a massive scale there is very little chance for us to hold a position that can be given over to NA that is strong enough to give them the fighting chance they need.

That is how every thing is. Also is it true about the 3rd EU guild that have come over to SoR Night something something

Also about JQ they do plenty of hitting my side. You where in EB yesterday you saw how JQ came and took advantage of our weakness. They are always about doing what every they see as right to win and they will hit what ever side looks the most open.

yuo mean jq is flipping wooden towers while we atcing your keep and then turn to our sm so we need to release the presure of your keep. y man they hit so valid things yesterday night.

Zeke Azul Falcon.5176:

good fight last night from SOR on EB, you guys are tough. but those IRON necros man they are swarming.

y man those full 4 necro’s are huge

zepp.4109:

nice pvdoor, SoR

But please, recruit more, you guys need more european guilds.

like you need more oceanic/sea guilds? like this morning?

stop QQ about this if you did the same this morning mate
