Guild Wars 2

2) Should I give constructive criticism? I’m not a very social person. I’m afraid of confronting people and feel like if I pick at flaws I’d start an argument.

I’m a player with a much lower skill cap than the rest of the community. Maybe I can offer another perspective as the person usually receiving the constructive criticism.

The best friendships I’ve made in this game have started with other players trying to point something out I might not be seeing.

Please don’t hesitate if your intentions are to help your fellow player. However, it’s been my experience that those conversations are handled better in whispers. Among other reasons, I’ve been in groups where other party members have assumed I was defenseless and dismantled an entire run because that person needed to say their piece on elitist players telling others how to play the game.

For what it’s worth, I haven’t touched t4 fractals. I’m not a representative of that group of players. I exist well below that.

(apart from no life griefers who sit there for hours in 2’s or 3’s waiting for their next victim).

Before the seaosn started, I was already feeling defeated just thinking about this. Nearly a week into the season, I’ve met several new friends because of the experience. Players fighting with me, helping me. That said, I wouldn’t recommend asking for help in /m or /t. Perhaps look into joining a secondary guild where other players are after the same achieves. Just about every server I can think of has a dedicated website, and that would be a great place to start.

Victory.2879:

For the love of god, remove the FOUR JP achievements from the upcoming wvw league achievements.

JP’s have NOTHING to do with wvw.

How about putting in some defence orientated ones instead like ‘killed 10 attackers whilst defending’, ‘tried to save dolyak from perma stealthing thiefs’, anything really.

I (and I’m sure the majority of wvw players are the same) go into wvw to play wvw, not to play Jump Wars 2.

Nothing to do with WvW? Battling against players from other servers over an objective (in this instance, an achievement). I’d say that lies at the heart of WvW.

If you don’t want to spend time on a JP achievement? Don’t. There is your solution.

I’d like an invite if there are still roster spots available.

My whole proposal is not about ‘balance’ as in this format that is beyond reach, its simply about making the game playable at every tier. In my opinion very shortly T1 will become completely unplayable due to lag and queues and then there will be a chaotic fallout of playerbase.

My mistake. I better understand your OP, and I have a couple questions in response.

If you “close” the current t1 servers, wouldn’t you expect a new set of t1 servers to emerge with the same problems you’ve identified?

Have you considered that Anet dictating (dismantling) server population could drive players away from not only wvw but the game itself?

I don’t mind queues; it’s part of the game.

The skill lag is a critical problem, I agree. It strips the fun out of, what should be, my favorite event in wvw — large scale, massive battles.
