Guild Wars 2

Arcadio.6875:

Also, NA servers like Fort Aspenwood need EU players to be competitive. You’d actually be welcomed with open arms.

This, my friend, is what i do not understand at all.
Why do they need EU player to be competitive ?
If we have 2 timezones, 2 ladders, it’s because players from NA mostly play during NA primetimes and EU players during EU primetimes.
If Fort aspenwood needs night players, they can recruit NA “night” players.

Vayra: recruiting RUIN is not a proof of anything but… err, sorry i can’t say that here.

Please consider these simple things: why did A-Net create 2 ladders if we end up by mixing NA and EU guilds? Why did they offer country-tagged servers if they are condemned to choose between becoming international ones or low tier ones?

I think you should refrain yourself and stop being insulting, KnightFire. BTW, from a RUIN member, poor sportsmanship is a compliment.

And Vayra, i don’t have any problem with nightcapping, if it’s the result of a good organization and dedication. But not if it’s made in EU by US primetimers.
As an Elona Reach player, i suffered VS nightcapping but i knew it was their EU “nightshift” players, not a random US guilds hired for this.

Some people on my server are starting to think we should migrate to NA and mess up the NA ladder with “morning cap” EU zergs. I’m not the “one eye for an eye” kind of man, but if the only way to help everybody understand that allowing massive migrations between timezones is a big mistake, is to migrate and do the same… err: ok with that.

Peetee.9406:

I see this same thread every day…it’s getting obnoxious.

3 of the top 4 European servers are either [FR] or [DE}.
That alone proves there is no problem.

This is not going to last long.
Blacktide and Desolation just received lots of people from overseas’ guilds.
It was not the case before last week.

Anyway i’m not asking you to clarify something you don’t have any involvment in.

Genev: this is not an good example. Nobody blocks people to transfer from an EU server to another. You can recruit people from your own ladder…

Another timezone, perhaps ?
Btw, i’m not saying: you can’t choose EU timezone as your “home zone” when you’re a NA player.
I’m just saying (again): block TRANSFERS between timezones.

I’m not talking about that.
I’m just saying, after you activate your account and choose your timezone, you wouldn’t be able to migrate to the other one.

Those EU->NA or NA->EU migrations are nonsense. GW2 was made with 2 ladders and main timezones and A-Net said it was not its purpose to merge NA and EU.

US guilds migrating massively to EU is just ruining WWW at all…

Hi,

my previous thread has been erased because of the “non petition rule” stuff.

So i’ll say it clear and simple : please A-Net, block NA->EU and EU->NA guild transfers.

THIS is not what you promised us before releasing the game.

GW2 was supposed to have 2 separate timezones and ladders but it’s nonsense if we have massive migrations of US guilds to EU servers or EU to NA, and for country-tagged servers [SP] [DE] [FR] this is going to be their death as competitive servers.

Please, clarify and tell us what you have in mind about that.

Petitions seems to be forbidden here… mine has been wiped because of a rule like this…
