Depending on when you left, there is way to much to discuss. Did you leave before Cele meta? If so. No one is going to type a 30 page essay on changes. If you left after, nothing has changed.
Now obviously there are slight changes and balance patches….again just look at the patch notes. To much info. Not exactly sure what you want here…or maybe just troll on the game mode post. The forums/ main page of GW2 are flooded with info on the new game mode (coming with expansion), so there is no way in hell you made it this far and didn’t see it.
It would take you WAY longer to read every little snip on here as someone posts 1 or 2 things..Faster to just go to GW2 news/ updates and read it for yourself.
This is inflammatory and agro, no need for this kind of aggressive response so theres that. Secondly I left after cele meta, and third a simple list posted like kirito left would have been just fine. Who asked for 30 pages? just a few highlights. LOL dude really evaluate your anger because you have some.
Have a nice day.

Aye all,
I’m and old PvP vet returning to guild wars some time soon, good thing about no sub is I can come and go as I like.
I was hoping you guys could inform me of some changes that I may have missed while being away. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Examples
-Current state of warriors (I play a warrior and when I left it was shouts)
-Any new game modes?
-Any other points you guys feel I should know?
Thanks a lot in advance for the responses
:)

I think it will be always 5vs5
They did post a CDI for sPvP game modes. I’m still waiting to see what has come from that discussion. 2v2 arenas were widely asked for by many, many players, as well as other popular game modes like moba, etc…
So far, we have a GUI update and a match making update with a dishonor system. Wow, I really hope there is more coming soon…
I just wish the development didn’t move at such a snail’s pace….Anet, please at least give us more of a timeline for sPvP updates…a ballpark road map with the disclaimer that nothing is set in stone, maybe?
I agree with you, i really like arena 2vs2 or 3vs3, i suggested this mode many times in other my previous topic..
But i think in this patch, everything will be set for 5vs5 with the same matchmaking rules, so if people vote for Courtyard, there will be a 5vs5 DM no 3vs3 or 2vs2.
At least is what i guess, i hope a dev can give us better infos.
I would love a 2v2 or 3v3. I REALLY REALLY LOVE LOVE THE IDEA of a 2v2 or 3v3 It should be a death match IMO. Something similar to what foe fire mid looks like.

Im sorry remove skyhammer. For the that matter remove spirit watch too. TERRIBLE MAPS imo. Capricorn was better. oO. I don’t think Capricorn really has a place in ranked. However neither do skyhammer or spirits for that matter. Please accept that these maps fail. Leave them In Hotjoins and that’s it

About the mesmers just taking getting used to: if they’re balanced why are 90% of players I see mes/thief/necro? There’s the odd rebel engi/elementalist. And once in a blue moon I’ll see some poor soul using warrior (usually getting trolled by a mesmer).
I raised an eyebrow at this. I mean no offense to you bro and really this isn’t directed at you. However this is a l2p issue. If some1 cant handle their class they should seek coaching. I main a warrior and do great right now. You have to adapt. Warriors have 3 specs right now that are viable in 1v1 and teamfight depending on ur comp. So yeah

Is there any counter to condi heavy teams? Seems the be the only thing i’m loosing to lately. Engi’s and ele’s can put on so many condi’s at ridiculous rate, no class could ever keep up with clearing. Thoughts comments?
Diamond Skin Ele and Shout warrior.
Nice post J

Please Anet. People need this. It wud be fair. It separates people who understand builds vs people who don’t. Adjusting for team comp already happens and its not unfair. Switching out is normal. Otherwise remove the ability to switch all together. If not this suggestion is polish. Please make a build save spot in pvp build section. It wud be the best thing ever PLEASE <3

I’ll start with this. Hate is never good and it actually wont fix anything. If someone is not acting accordingly in sPvP I’d hope that other fellow sPvP vets would educate instead of flaming.
That being said really bro its just about the fact that sPvP isn’t about some 1v1 glory and fame or really an ego of any kind. True sPvP is about teamwork, rotating properly, making proper call outs, & being supportive within your class role. In sPvP you win as a unit not as an individual. Some WvW folks choose to ignore this and by the time their glorious 1v1 is over and mid’s been wiped and its all catch up from there lol. (This would be the part where every starting flaming the guy) Sure you get caught up in the occasional 1v1 situation at the end of a node fight and 1v1 skill is important but honestly any sPvP vet can 1v1. Its not more valuable to be able to 1v1 then to work as an unit.
Have a good day bro

They fail to realize that if you excel in 1v1 (from your experience as a dueler and solo raomer) then you will be great in group within spvp? Of course there are some coordination, communication and mechanics that are different in spvp but the player’s skill you acquire within wvw helps a whole lot within spvp setting.
Being good at your 1v1’s won’t automatically mean you’ll have sudden understanding of team support such as peeling, positioning, and awareness. The main reason why WvW roamers get so much hate is because majority (not saying all) run selfish 1v1 builds. Majority of thieves run Shadow Arts, and you can be bad with that trait line and still be effective due to the regen in stealth. You can run a 1v1 phantasm/PU mesmer and get carried by passives. Sure there are cheesy builds in sPvP too, but WvW seems to have the worst. People think they’re good when they win nearly every 1v1 with these builds, but give them a build that requires thought and they’ll have trouble processing. You can be good at 1v1’s, but in sPvP it’s conquest, and you can win every 1v1, but half your team might be losing the teamfight. After your team loses a teamfight you’ll most likely get +1’d, and you’ll be losing in the long run. Sure you’ll win your 1v1, but it will take too long especially if you can’t maintain control of a point. I’m not saying WvW players are bad, just majority of them use selfish 1v1 builds with the superior mindset that they’re gonna win every 1v1 with forgiving builds that require no thought. I know a few WvW players who are decent that came into PvP, but the sight of that is really rare. Even those rare WvW Players still have to pick up mechanics of conquest, and learn how to communicate with the team.
Really well said

I have followed the Guild Wars franchise since 2006. With this new Sept Feature pack revelation, the game is not looking good. They’re “leaving money on the table” when it comes to us vets. There is very little in the Sept Feature Pack for long-time players. We shall see how GW2 fares against its giant American and Japanese competitors in the next few months. The US competition has a major expansion coming out this November. After what I’ve seen in the expansion’s trailer, Blizzard is looking to grab GW2 fans to their side.
We shall see how this all pans out. I love this game very much, and I don’t want to see it fail. Let’s hope there is something really good in future updates!
Blizzard taking me from Anet as a supporter and fan. NEVER gonna happen. Truth be told I agree with the thread creator to a degree. However Blizzard is famous for giving not a single thought about there vets. Blizz wud rather have 12 year olds running around instead of there B.C. vets.
And like you said we love this game so rest easy bro
