Guild Wars 2

Let’s just think about how much more fun this game would be with Monks, Hall of Heroes, GvG.

You know, Guild Wars 1 was bound by their name “Guild Wars”.

Guild Wars 2 isn’t the same. There’s no Guild versus Guild therefore GW2 isn’t bound by it’s name.

Having a healing class may bring meta gaming, but aside from the fact that Arena Net doesn’t want “Meta Gaming”, there’s always going to be something that beats something else (given, this is Meta Gaming).

Let’s talk flaws:
Downed states
No dedicated healer class
Domination sPvP, sure we like capping points, but we’d rather feel victorious killing the Guild Lord or everyone on the other team.

Let’s talk pros:
Great combat system (I absolutely love the way you can evade by dodging)
Lack of paid tournaments (I remember when you used to have to pay for tournaments)
Truly isn’t an eSport unless the things I’ve stated are fixed

Now let’s look at http://www.mistleague.com/

They have the right approach, trying to make a casual game like GW2 into an eSport, I like that.

They’re doing the right thing that Arena Net won’t.

GW2 was supposed to be a sequel to GW. I remember the $100,000 Factions Tournament, do I see the same in GW2, no.

Look at the $100,000 Factions 8v8 Tournament. Arena Net did.

Did I say that? Nawh, I said if they wanted to do it right, they would’ve just done sPvP 5v5’s with cash prizes.

Isn’t this supposed to work like CEVO

Oh wait, there’s no esports in sPvP, so let’s make this in WvW.

I don’t know if you guys remember, but Arena Net doesn’t drop nearly as much money as they did for Guild Wars 1, GW2 will never be an eSport because there’s no specific healer classes, the downed state makes the game a lot of hassle in PvP.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not whining, but if Arena Net wanted to do this right, they would’ve got rid of downed states, got rid of domination, points, ect. and make it strictly 5v5 with a weekly schedule, deadline days, team vs team, with a playoff’s schedule.

Sorry, this was just my nitpick.

So, ArenaNet is trying to make WvW into a league, cool.

Leagues have weeks, and maps, and times, therefore, is there going to be weekly deadline days.

And how are you going to be monitoring population, I understand if a WvW fills up, they’ll join a queue, but if there’s an uneven amount of said server, they should balance it.
