this thread is great
defending will become viable the same day that Anet addresses hacking (which means never)
player moral is at an all time high, keep up the good work anet
anet acknowledges this is a great idea and is currently hard at work to get this implemented by Q4 2017, hang in there guys it’s coming!
I think WXP merge is still in talks to make it free or not. I mean if you have to pay 800 gems to merge the points between toons into one, imagine the amount of profit that would make….
I would pay good money(not to Anet tho, obviously) to sit back and watch the absolute kitten storm on these forums if they decided to charge a gem fee to merge ranks. it would probably be more entertaining than the last 8 months or so of playing WvW
in 2-3 years, WvW will be locked in a battle of epic proportions between the only two remaining players: devon and lordkrall
no down system and no aoe cap is reason enough for me to try ESO.
ESO sounds a lot like the game I had hoped GW2 would be, but after over a year of basically nothing but complete disappointment with WvW development, it really won’t take much convincing to leave for a different game
who else agrees that lordkrall should be lead developer for wvw +1 plz
devon should prob leave anet off his resume
godspeed Josh
honest question…is there even a WvW dev anymore? devon hasnt posted anything in over a month?
one game mode… ZZZzzz….
just started spvp a few days ago as a last ditch effort to stay interested in this game because i’m basically giving up on WvW (been WvWing since the beta events) and i’m already getting bored with the one game mode.
have they said anything about releasing more modes for spvp? or did they really think standing in circles for over a year straight would be good for longevity
anet was planning on addressing this, but decided to work on that wildly popular league thing instead
i think they need to add more bridges and ledges
this all must be part of anet’s master plan to revitalize WvW
they will answer through their actions – next season rewards will be even worse
yeah, I refuse to force myself to grind out all this boring kitten, and I won’t spend one minute on it.
if I start to notice that i’m significantly weaker than the other players with ascended gear, i’ll just stop playing this game.
they succeeded in kitten ing off a lot of people and ruining a bunch of server communities
^ thanks. looks like there isn’t a fix in sight
this just started happening for me yesterday. looks like some of you have been experiencing this for over a month already…….great.
Beginning yesterday, I am suddenly unable to see any text in /party (including messages that I type myself).
I confirmed through whispers that other party members were able to see what I was sending, but nothing appears on my screen in /party
I made sure that I had ‘party’ selected in my chat tab, and even deleted the tab and created a new one with the same result.
Has this been happening to anyone else? I couldn’t find anything else about this on the bug forums. Thanks
edit: looks like /guild doesn’t work either. so far, only /say and whispers are working for me

anet’s policy: ignore problems until they magically disappear
It’s my intention to have as much of the Living World stuff drop in WvW as possible and to do it in a way that gets you a good return. We want people playing in WvW during these events too.
^^^ quote from 3 months ago
everyone is forgetting a very important factor here:
Devon is delusional.
so even if NSP gets in to the bottom of Silver, in his warped sense of reality he will somehow equate being rolled and spawn camped 24/7 into “fun” or an opportunity to showcase a server’s skill.
devon 4 prez
so far so terrible
this has disappointment written all over it
pretty sure they have ruined their own game to such an extent that it’s beyond the point of repair.
a lot of players were dissatisfied with the game (WvW), guilds dying etc., and THEN they added bloodlust lol. nowhere to go but further downhill.
the good news for Anet is, this is going to be a very quiet Q4 as far as gaming releases are concerned, so they shouldn’t have any trouble holding on to existing players. oh wait lol!
(edited by meep.2601)
anyone notice that devon hasn’t been seen on the forums since the GvG/dev fiasco?
and anet said they would be reprimanding said dev…….verrrrryyyy interesting.
what are they going to do?
what they’ve always done: make it worse somehow
Replace Devon Carver with someone who cares
he probably cares, but just has absolutely no idea what he is doing and does everything kitten -backwards.
so yea, replace him with someone who knows what they are doing
Picture of Garbage Can
this guy beat me to it
this thread was cool at first now it sux
This is exactly what WvW needed. Everyone has been so negative towards it lately, this should really turn things around and help repair the damaged relationship between WvW devs and their playerbase.
oh wait lol!!!!
uh, who cares about balance? all i want to do is steamroll!!1
Why do people keep saying that +150 to stats is “broken.”
Look at banners. Banner of Strength gives you +170 to Power and condition damage. Banner of defense gives you +170 Vitality and Toughness. Banner of Discipline dishes out more DPS than banner of strength does.
Are banners broken? Are people “too hard” to kill when they’re within banner range? I mean really now this is just getting silly.
The orb buff is not broken. Stop complaining about it.
because banners effect an entire server across 4 maps right? lawl
Point stands. People are talking about the buff like it makes enemies into some kind of unstoppable killing machine. It doesn’t. If you’ve ever killed anyone who had banners down—or better yet, banners + divinity runes—then congratulations, you killed someone with a bigger stat buff than the orbs give.
the problem is, it makes the stronger server even stronger, which has nothing to do with your strange banner argument
Yeah, I can see how comparing stat buffs to stat buffs could be confusing. It’s not like they’re anywhere near the same thing. “Strange” indeed. I don’t know what came over me.
yep, you are comparing a slot skill on a single class that effects people in a small radius to a server wide buff. yup, pretty strange
Think harder, Homer.
What I said was “are people too hard to kill when they’re in banner range?”
Yes, it’s a slot skill. I actually have a banner warrior, I know how it works. My point is that having 50-150 added to your stats is not broken, in fact it is something that many players have experienced many times without even knowing it.
Moreover, the stat discrepancy between a fully geared character with three orbs and an uplevel or an ungeared 80 is potentially much larger than 150. I don’t see anyone arguing that we ought to remove uplevels from wvw, or have gear requirements for WvW entry.
cool story. like i said, giving the stronger server a completely unnecessary stat buff just makes them even stronger.
PS how did u know my name was homer!?

i heard that devon and jay wilson went to the same developer skewl

Players get frustrated>buy gems>transfer to new server for fair fights= Anet wins
more like, players get frustrated>quit game>the end
because devon knows best
i wonder how awkward it is at anet hq when habib and devon walk by eachother in the office
lol @ devon
Looks like he didn’t change his mind, so we are really going to see BG, SOR, and JQ versus Emry Bay and Crystal Desert. I have no idea what Anet is thinking.
based on devon’s warped sense of reality, this will be an excellent opportunity to showcase “skill”.
this dude is beyond delusional at this point
WvW and “immediate hot-fix” is quite the oxymoron
oh look, even more reason not to play wvw
