Yes, they do care. But unfortunately priorities at ArenaNet go beyond the scope of WvW, so the WvW team is probably smaller than most and have to focus on certain projects at a time. I would guess also that they have to share programmers with other teams involved in more than WvW.
here’s the thing though. WvW players have no problem with sharing their attention. we have a problem with getting a few table scraps, and then ignored for months, while there’s a constant stream of updates, patches, and bug fixes going to PvE. we don’t want to monopolize their time in any way, shape or form. we just want our fair share, which if you dig back through each of the patch notes since launch, we haven’t gotten. even the “big WvW patch” in march was lackluster in comparison to every living story patch since then.
all we’ve gotten is a bunch of empty promises about the things that we need, and forced to accept a few minor things that we didn’t even want. it’s like if a kid asks their parent for something to eat, because they’re starving to death and the parent gives them a barbie doll. sure, the kid might shut up for a little bit, but eventually he will starve to death. and that’s the point we’re at now with WvW.
1) Skill lag – makes the game completely unplayable at times. This is the most important and problematic one of them all.
2) World XP is not shared on your account, meaning I’d have to grind for hundreds of hours per character just to max out the world traits. I feel like having extra characters holds me back rather than helping me get ahead – which is just ridiculous and should never happen. I like to have fun with the different classes in WvW, but the world xp discourages that heavily; they should do the same thing they did with the account bank and make it so the next time we log into our characters, it banks our World XP to an account based progression rather than character based.
3) No new maps or new mechanics being released to make WvW more interesting or fun. I’m tired of looking at the same two maps, one of which is repeated between three zones.
Well thats also a 1 shot against any zerker character save for wars and necros. Its just easier to do against a ranger because the other classes all have a defensive gimmick:
Guard – how much hp could a guardian guard if a guardian could guard hp??
Mesmer – pick a clone, any clone
Ele – LOOK AT ALL MY BUFFS, JUST LOOK AT THEM!
Thief – now u see me— o wait, no u dont. haha silly me!
Engineer – Do you know what this is? Neither do I! but I am 66.6667% sure it will confuse you more then it does me!
as for ranger? YOUR SUPPOSE TO ATTACK MY PET, NOT ME!! HAVE U EVER HEARD OF “AGGRO” YOU STUPID PVPER?
Poorest implementation of pets since the tamagotchi fever 15 years back claims another victim

I swear, I really really wish they would just get around to balancing this game completely for separate game modes. Finally when people start to actually not mind taking rangers into dungeons because they can see the value in the spirit builds for all melee groups, the pvp whiners will get it nerfed for everyone and it will be right back to ranger=kick. I don’t normally rant about the decisions the devs make but I don’t think I have ever seen a game where such a small percentage of a playerbase gets so much sway over decisions made about balancing a game, all in the name of protecting their precious wanna be esport.
Arenanet likes having a care bear game. Aww did mean ol pvp players kill you? That’s okay we’ll move this stupid PvE thing somewhere close to bad AI NPC’s so you don’t have to worry about it.
Well, since Anet made it rain with free badges of honor from achievement chests so that the PvE crowd wouldn’t break a nail trying to get their gifts of battle, I want free dungeon tokens without having to set foot in NPC land.
Agreed, it’s pretty much impossible to do dungeons with people from a WvW guild (as in getting them to wanna come, dungeons aren’t too hard :P). We need to get those tokens somehow….
I say whenever you kill someone in WvW wearing dungeon armor, they have a chance to drop a small amount of the tokens required to purchase said armor set. So if someone is wearing CoF armor, you kill them, chance to drop a few CoF tokens.
Would be neat, might get farmed/exploited though, so any player wearing any dungeon armor —> chance to get any dungeon token would probably be better.
But you can’t play with 100 people on one spot. Cause the skills/ game doesn’t work. And if game doesn’t work, it’s not meant to be played like that. Go figure.
Lol that´s really the most stupid strategy i´ve ever heard of. You guys are so obsessed of your ridiculous idea of how wvw works, please come back when you get your sense of realism back. Or better, please leave wvw and rent yourself a tpvp server, there you can do awesomz skillzfull smallz scale all dayz. hahaha, unbelievable you really made my day.
Lolz thats the most stupid answer I’ve ever heard of. You are so obsessed with your ridiculous WvW points, please come back when you get your sense of fun back. Or better, please leave other people have fun and stop wearing a tinfoil hat so you can see that aside from our awesome skills (we won Bollaball, yay!) and your awesome strategy (one – stack moar ppl, two – refer to point 1) is game after all and fun is what counts all dayz. hahaha, unbelievable you really made my day.

If we were blobbing in the same way as mya do (they may run all as one guild with no randoms, but 30+ is a blob no matter if they all have the same guild tag)
O wow that´s interesting. So in your logic a guild should not run together as a squad or maybe split in 6 x 5 man groups over 4 maps ? Please first think and then write.
Actually, some big guilds have done that @ Gandara in the past, they divided a rather sizable guild group into 2 groups instead of just mindlessly steamrolling around and everyone had more fun, on both enemy and friendly side as there was no silly skill lag and blobbing. Please think first and then write.

We all have tpvp servers, if they were fun we’d be doing that now wouldn’t we? It’s not a smart strategy points-wise, but it is a smart strategy when it comes to having fun, which is what one generally aims to do in a game. You know, play and have fun?
I’m pretty sure we generated only 5 PPT last night (when we needed a camp to get supplies to make goal posts), but we had an awesomely fun night last night and it definitely didn’t include any large groups. Thanks to Riot, Mya, BNF and Bots and any others I might have missed for the awesome times yesterday! Definitely one of the most memorable WvW nights for me xD
It takes two (or three) sides in any game to have fun and luckily some people on our opposing servers are providing that fun still in bucket loads

I´m tired of changing my play style every month. Its annoying and frustrating. “Pick GS then hit 1+3+4, then switch back to SB fart and jump the press 1 and roll if you can do that then you´ll be as good as a warrior pressing 1”. Answer: “play a warrior then tadaaa!”, NO, i like bows, archers, and “pew”. Answer: “Well rangers suck dpsing with bows pick a GS”, NO! BOW! Answer: “We decided to nerf SB so then you have no choice than playing with a GS”. AAAAaa!!! Answer: “Ok then when you hit 3 with the LB you become stealth!” NOOO! I said bow+archer not a thief. Answer: “Well the things is that when we wrote Ranger´s intro we didn´t mean unparalleled archers literally. Either way users don´t know what they want and always complain BUT we do care so in the next patch rangers will wear heavy armor to be able to take more damage while tanking with the GS”.
GW2 is becoming more like a QC job than an enjoyable game.
My feedback.
Rofl, how sad..No wonder we got nerfed..kitten Muffins like that who lose to a full Ranger Team cause they don’t know how to play SPvP worth a kitten results in a nerf for us in every other mode.
This is why Anet needs to quit listening to SPvP folks, its quite obvious that most of the top “players” are just baddies who can’t even figure out how to play the bloody mode they’re suppose to be good at.
1. They are bad/worst class in dungeons because in any ‘hard’ fight your pet(s) end up dead and on cooldown within secs, you just lost a huge chunk of your dps and any skills involving your pet are now useless.
2). They are bad/worst class in WvW because in any ‘hard’ fight your pet(s) end up dead and on cooldown within secs, you just lost a huge chunk of your dps and any skills involving your pet are now useless.
3) Your pet is hard to control and will often bring ‘extra’ aggro down on you ie…neutral foes like a pack of moas for example it just on its own got into a fight with. You pet is also fantastic at drawing foes to exactly the place where you don’t want them.
4) Rangers are decent/good in spvp which the entire game is solely balanced around so Rangers are always going to be nerfed never buffed.
5) Rangers are the most used class for botting so the devs will never allow the Ranger to be good/powerful, they are always going to handicap Rangers.
Just stocked on 500+ (no kidding) siege for gravestones – week is over but surely we’ll meet again. Don’t move away [lion]… all these punks/FSV want is for you to be red to have the same fun we have! If you do, do tell us what server you moved so we can continue our hunt.
And with a smile wish you all a good reset and weekend.

GvG doesn’t exist inside Guild Wars 2, WvW is specifically designed for servers to fights for resources. You literally cannot force GvG on everyone just because you said so. It’s not your decision to make. Trying to cap assets and PvP is what WvW is all about, if you don’t like it then take it up with Anet to add GvG to the game. You’re acting ridiculous and quite frankly like children.
Given the fact your guilds make up a massive minority to the player base who exactly do you think you are raging that people are trying to complete objectives? I’ve heard it stated that “The majority of people voted yes to it” Sorry but I wasn’t informed by Anet that there was a vote and since; like I said you are a vocal minority I believe your opinion means very little in context considering the map is to be used by all three servers.
If you want to kitten each other then go do it in SPvP and have a few teams from each guild fight it out otherwise grow up, shut up & man up.
Here’s an outside perspective:
GvG does exist inside Guild Wars 2, WvW is specifically designed for Guilds to fight versus other Guilds. You literally cannot interrupt GvG each time just because you don’t want to understand. It’s not your decision to make. Trying to get good fights sized about 1 vs 1 to 20 vs 20 is what WvW is all about, if you don’t like it then take it up with Anet to remove skill lags from the game. You’re acting ridiculous and quite frankly like children.
Given the fact you sole players make up a massive minority to the guild base who exactly do you think you are raging that people are trying to have fun? Sorry but I wasn’t informed by Anet that you weren’t informed by Anet how to play the game and since; like I said you are a vocal minority I believe your opinion means very little in context considering the map is to be used by guilds of all three servers.
If you want to siege each other then go do it in another game and have a few teams from each server build siege, otherwise grow up, shut up & l2p.
I understand it perfectly. But you clearly don’t understand how arrogant and selfish it is to claim part of the map for your GvG just because you said so.
All you have as rebuttal is stupid ad hominem crap because there is no justification other than because you said so. Like I said, boring childish behavior.
