Guild Wars 2

The irony of all that is that even without a hacker(s) we’d still be in a terrible condition. It’s just the cherry on my GW2 depression cake.

My cake jumped off the top of a vista ages ago and converted to pancake

BT is worse WvW server out there (they dont even have players if FoW and UW both play normal)

I wouldn’t say UW is playing any less than normal. This is the playerswe have left atm ;(

Yes its pretty dead out here ;-( One more person on my friends list jumped server today ;-(

TBH I struggled to del mine so I put them on a char I deled it was the only way I could do it. I still have some toy frames and gauntlet tickets even thought I never played it.

But on the other hand, remember all those skins that people deleted before the wardrobe?

Or the things we used to vote during the election, which they later added a vendor value too… I laughed when I cashed those in.

Yes, they added value to the support tokens. But the representation buttons were never given a value and are useless (except for people who enjoy displaying the little icon for funsies every now and then). My point still stands: sometimes things really do go away for good.

Your not dead yet so how do you know its for good?

can this auto feature be an option pls it makes putting down a healing well slower and easier to die esp if ur targetting elsewhere

Surely there also needs to be something to stop people moving about well to try and reduce it. Its the bandwaggoning that makes things too fluid

This pic about shows the state in the day now on EU T9. ATm ‘our’ keep and sm on eb has a wp and all other upgrades. Just come on each day with a few ppl on the map and towers and keeps all stone.

My friendslist each day gets shorter and shorter with people on my server. Its very sad

He’s talking about the UW one Jayden : )

She!

How about a roaming Mr Stay Puft?

In the EU servers the lists are one full and the rest high or very high. Seems a very inaccurate listing.

Yet if you look on the sever list on the login screen UW as a number of others are counted as very high when WvW is the only place this matters and we are very low!

You get rewards to playing WvW? Since when?

I was wondering if there should be 2 types of WvW (maps etc)? One for higher pop servers and one for lower. You want to blob and not play EotM? Have the existing setup. For those of us with pop problems maybe some bottle necks or smaller areas on maps, one less guard on a camp. Something for less people.
In PvE I can avoid world bosses and SW but its harder to play towards smaller groups in WvW

Did this kind of imbalance not happen in GW1 with the factions?

maybe if people lost something like their WvW ranks if they moved server?

What is to stop stacking again?

Even as a loyal player its hard to play when your getting totally wiped week after week. Your own garri is taken by the other server and fully upgraded so they can WP in their already overwhelming numbers easily. Its hard to play like that week after week when you know the WvW setup try that when your new or the comms just get burnt out so its hard to find one to follow.

If you want good fights with a consistent community I’d say go for Gunners Hold. I’m currently on Aurora Glade and I’m giving serious consideration to switching. Were currently fighting Gunners & Elona Reach and our turnout is pathetic (Too many fairweather WvWers who are only interested when we can farm noobs).

Gunners have good turnouts regardless who they’re fighting.

Why don’t you l2p and carry your server?

Wow that is classic….. and sfr karma/bandwagon train player telling others how to do wvw

88 tier 1 wins. I carry server so hard that i can play EotM whole time. I don’t even get this band wagoning stuff. Why don’t you just select server in launch and start winning like we did?

Maybe if that had been the case and that the servers did not all say high or very high pop people could choose one and stay on it.

If everyone would just leave these almost-empty servers then perhaps Anet would fix the issue. Right now it seems that it would take only 4 tier to sustain the whole WvW population.

Almost empty for WvW, there are still the PvE/PvP people to consider as well. I’m not saying that they couldn’t consolidate the lowest 3 servers, but let’s not forget we’re not the only people in the game. Just because the WvW is dead on a server, doesn’t mean there aren’t people on it.

Why does PvE and PvP care about servers? they use megaserver. Only thing that cares about servers is WvW

Then they won’t have to look for solutions

And the auto upgrades are going to make it harder for the mismatched servers too. People already doing well are going to get buildings that become upgraded.

I just don’t see how leaving the servers to die helps Anet. People join WvW and what do they see?

DiscoJacen.1590:

Try Underworld. We have GREAT open fields for you to run around there and tumbleweed to battle ; )

But equally so few chickens cos most of them left

But surely it means they are for the other server in some way and so when they hear team or map chat they are spying?

Player advertising for people for the opposing sever

We have someone who keeps shouting out in map/team chat to get players for the other server isn’t this spying? There is no report option for this

What is wrong with having servers and matchups that vary in coverage and population. Not all of us want to be on a busy server. Megaserver and some of the PVE events already force us into large groups why can’t some of us play with less people? The problem is not the lack of people its the imbalance. Why can’t we have things like different server caps for different match ups? Also surely guilds have different numbers and different number of people active in WvW.
Unlike PVE we do not have a choice of how to play WvW the matchups effect us and people moving about effects us. If I don’t want to play in a big zerg I can avoid that in PVE, I can play alone or in a small group. But by trying one thing to fix all servers you please some and not others. Maybe there needs to be more then one solution?

The golems just get up and walk on their own – the second (or third?) golem uprising

I am on the bottom EU server – UW. Why do I stay?
About a month ago 2 large guides (maybe more) moved off our server. I dunno why it happened, some say a row, maybe they just wanted more coverage who knows. But the fact is people want different types of play. I tried for a while to go with the zerg (yes we have had one) but I don’t have fun in it. I tried it in PVE (world bosses and SW) and its just not for me. I like group play but not massive groups. I really feel that Anet just don’t seem to care about WvW and the problems it has. WvW is down as being casual but over the time I have played most people seem to play WvW as their main game mode except when they need to do other things (usually because WvW rewards so poorly). Maybe we need to face the fact that there should be server tiers with different levels of coverage? Some will always have loads of people on and some will sometimes be quiet or dead? And the fixes for each tier is different. ATM with us basically being steamrollered by BT as soon as they come into a map with their large group I leave as we are so out-manned we just get squished and after the first 10 times it gets dull. But then we just end up only taking things that mostly have no players so it becomes PVE and tbh thats no fun either. I like a nice prolonged fight wondering who will win and having to try different things – shame they lack so much. I think the problems will get worse with the auto upgrading thing as when we come in on the morning most things will be T3 and hard to take. I don’t know what the answers are and maybe some servers need different things to others but I wish something would be tried – trying to be positive about the golem thing but tbh …. I wonder if one of the problems is that you can move so easily and have nothing to loose except gold/gems/£ and people who farm and farm have that so can just move about it it fluxes things so much. In GW1 there was an effect for changing factions wasn’t there? Please show this game mode some love!

By? 10% 10? what? cos I know what the term means but what it means to GW in actual terms I do not

Please don’t flame me. This is coming from someone on a very low pop server and I stay with GW cos I love WvW.

1)The NPCs – should be usable on EB. and your own BL not other peoples. (its meant to be your land not theirs and they already have the advantage that the lower towers are near their spawn point)
2) Change the time you can claim a camp from 3 mins to 30seconds or a minute its way too long spent so much time waiting on this (small guild so often only one trying to use the +5 sup at camps with a low pop server that needs it)
3) Devs pls try more things. You did those week tests ages and ages ago and everyone kittened but they were not as bad as they could have been but at least it felt like you were trying things now we feel so sad and lonely and unloved here
4) Can’t we have something like in GW1 with the jade sea and the luxons and those other evil ones who killed the lovely turtles?

please don’t flame or be mean I really really like GW2 but not a day goes by without me looking at steam for other games cos I am just sick of feeling like I am being forced to pay more or farm to move and loose my friends from WvW and my guild.

What does this mean in real terms? A number of times I am sure we should be outnumbered but are not

No one drawn a map or some info of this anywhere?

Free transfer is just going to kill these severs quicker. I dont get why there is no loyalty for staying with one server or some effect besides costing money for moving. You could not just change factions in GW1 without there being a cost. Sad that often WVW is just about numbers and not quality of game play

I like to take camps alone. But what is a source of frustration is the mechanic where an NPC started to walk back to its spawn point and within a few seconds regain all of its health even if you are still hitting it. Its hard enough taking camps alone as it is, and with auto upgrades happening soon it feels like my camp capping is worth even less. So why does this still happen? The NPC is is combat (being hit) and the regain of health is just at a ridiculous rate that I would never be able to do. Why is this happening still?

anyone else having weird problem with their thoughtless horns? I am on an asura

Hey. The scraps fixed but not the experience scrolls. They all say account bound but still will not stack. Well at least one piece of space saved.

I am finding this with a number of items. Just got a black lion ticket scrap and one of them (or the pile it is in) says account bound on acquire the other(s) just say account bound. I can change the numbers in each pile by splitting but always end up with one left over no matter what. Had this on a number of other items inc experience scrolls. Nice waste of storage space.

Make an Asura because they are cheap to play. Unlike those other races we look cute in any outfit, but the other lot have to buy outfits to make themselves look passable.

It would also mean there was a use for Charr cos we could farm them for tails

Why would I want ugly charr tail on my cute asura? :/

I think they only look ugly because they are stuck on a Charr.

It would also mean there was a use for Charr cos we could farm them for tails

If asura had tails we would be perfect. Surely there must be a way to transplant one off a Charr? Or do any other animals on Tyria have cute enough tails?
