Guild Wars 2

The coast man.

I’m on TC in 5th, and there is literally no Queue. If we had a couple of more dedicated large guilds….sky’s the limit.

PvX would fit perfectly in TC. I WvW a lot but still dabble in RP. It is a chill environment, and since you are from Singapore, there will hardly ever.. if at all be a queue. Those that are oceanic in WvW are treated like royalty around here, hehe. Anyways for the rest of the guild that may not WvW.. Many of us are still are involved in the PvE aspects of the game, and events are always ensuing with hilarious moments, the times you will always remember. I look forward to seeing you guys in the future.

Only a WvW player would pull an all nighter for those extra points.

Only a WvW player would bow to his enemy or sleep next to his corpse.

Only a WvW player has not seen Zhaitan.

Paid transfers are a mistake. Saying it now. Good luck everyone.

Realistically.. this is going to cut the WvW population in game by half within a couple of months.

The culling is seriously worse than what it was a month ago. Tired of zergs popping up out of thin air.

restarting this topic since only after 35 posts our other one got locked and deleted.
lets not be stupid and get this locked.

score update plz

Its not people being stupid that gets the topics locked and deleted. Its terrible forum moderation. A decent moderator would warn/ban individual offenders rather than punishing the entire community. There is not even a reason given, I have no idea why my post was deleted. I really hope the forum moderators don’t get paid for such sloppy work.

The fact that this game is so awesome despite culling, exploits and terrible administration/moderation is a real testament to the game.

i support the OP of this comment for president forum mod during the next election

heh I was given an infraction for replying to a post that later deleted, even though nothing I said was inappropriate. But its all good.

To the lady Asuran of Volatile from BG that was camping the JP’s… If your going to sit on my face at least do it in real life rather than in a game.

I think anet has done as much as they can with the speed at which their code monkeys can work. That being said, the culling is the only thing that truly bothers me or interferes with my total enjoyment of wvw. I have hours of video that would have truly been epic and postable (and great for marketing) if only I could have seen more than the animations of my enemies.

I do wish people would stop the terrain exploits, but for the few that do it, it means very little to the score. Just keep up with the social stigmatization until anet can patch out the holes. These maps are huge and the designers cannot fix the terrain bugs only the coders can.

To post on topic, TC has been a welcome challenger. No disrespect to IOJ, but they just didn’t have the coverage nor the presence that TC has presented so far. But we’ll see as time goes on. The first week in a new tier, everybody comes to play.

Funny thing is.. I haven’t seen a good number of the regulars.

Isredel.4302:

They’re better because they can keep coverage throughout the night so this is somehow Arena Net’s fault?

He’s talking about the broken and blatantly flawed scoring system. If it was the intention of Anet to have the same people fighting for over a month, the matches would be lasting over a month. The current system punishes the winning team by forcing them to lose rating, and rewards the losing team by giving them rating.

It sucks all three servers into a blackhole until they are rated exactly the same, and it forces the first seat server to beat the third seat server into a coma just to break even. Hence the lack of progression. It’s also quite stale. Who wants to fight the same servers and guilds for over a month?

Here was my idea. You win, you move up a tier. You come in second, you stay in the same tier. You lose, you go down a tier. Simple.

Hectoncheir.4210:

Unfortuantly, I didn’t make this one. But to all of those thinking CD and FA are making an alliance…

Love that attachment. Saw that on the history channel when it first aired.. laughed my kitten off.

TC is a RPing PvE server that just happens to also do a good job in WvW. That is why we have no queue.

And look how that idea ended today.

Night capping is not an issue.

Arcadio.6875:

TC has already gone up against BG and SoR. They are not equal competition, lol. TC being full has more to do with PvE than WvW.

Regardless, FA doesn’t have much of a choice. It’s either TC+CD or Mag+EB. The ratings dictate what the matches are and TC will be staying in the tier and CD will be moving into it. http://mos.millenium.org/matchups#NA

That was more than a month ago.

Fixeon.5076:

As a person who spends about 85-90% of their time in WvW I don’t think I have any choice but to not get a Legendary/Ascended item.

Sure I could go farm, could save up 800-1k gold and buy most of it…. but I have much more fun in WvW than in dungeons or fractals. I would like to see a WvW path for these items. I have no problem with grinding out a bit as long as its in a format I enjoy. And with any luck the Anet crew will figure that out and put something in for us.

This^
I should be able to get the same quality items in PvE or WvW.

To original post. Yes.

??? I see my glow.

The out manned balance is not the issue… The issue is culling.

Its not something that is going to be fixed. Quite frankly it does not bother me. I beat them so bad they have to log out to avoid the ensuing embarrassment.

I believe it should be a little more simple than the ranking system in place. 1st place should move up a tier, 2nd place would stay in the same tier, and 3rd place would move down a tier.

Matches would always change, servers would have something to fight for ranking wise every week. Plus if the connection/lag/ latency whatever is not an issue, EU and US should be on the same list.

Just my two cents. Discuss.

Nut.4713:

Any change is highly likely to be a one week hiatus, so you guys might as well get used to this match up. If Yak’s moves down, we most likely would crush T4, and I don’t think there’s any reason to believe CD has changed enough in the past 3 weeks to do anything in T3. And trust me TC, you do not want to fight SoR and Blackgate in T2.

Actually I do.

I take this to mean that server populations are settling and that there is less bandwagonning going on. I was bound to happen, and as someone else stated, these are the most even matches available.

That’s not to say that playing the same people doesn’t get boring. I think a seasonal ladder reset would be nice, resetting everything ever 3 months or so.

Resets don’t work because ranking is basically a function of server populations. This is at the core of all WvW problems at the moment if you ask me (aside from lack of development/rewards).

As far as adapting goes, the hypothesis of this is that skill = win. When that idea is simply not true. Adapting new tactics will not give you a win in WvW against a much larger force, that just is what it is. There are many limitations in WvW as it currently stand so depending on your resources (man power or money) you can only try a set of things. There is also the issue of time slot coverage which new ‘tactics’ or adapting will not help fix. Only when every server has the exact same population at the exact same times (or at least very similar) can we really talk about strategy as if it really mattered.

Agree. WvW is a numbers game….tier 1&2 are “FULL” servers….as is TC in tier 3. The only viable independent strategy for the other servers in tier 3 is to recruit and get more and better coverage as well if the ultimate goal is a more competitive (score wise) match-up.

TC may be a full server. But in WvWvW we are hardly ever full.

OutspokenAardvark.9781:

I have mixed emotions about moving up to T2. On one hand, I’d like something new, challenging and it’d be interesting to know how TC has grown as a server. On the other hand however, this 3 week battle has been one of the closest and most engaging battles I’ve participated in. All three servers keep bringing the fight day in and day out and it’s something that you guys should be proud of. I’ve been on other servers before, usually the good fight stops Sunday evening. I’m kind of disappointed with all the alliance accusations going around because we’re all just having fun and you guys are ruining some of the best WvW GW2 has to offer with drama.

Really?? I look forward to getting my kitten kicked in T2. I still believe TC will make an impact in T2. But this way we will learn more and become better.

Every thief build I’ve tried, and or use now must at least have 15 acro.

Its Yaks Bend. Got the red flag on the up right corner. Anyways I would not be surprised if there was one commander on TC right now. Plenty of times I’ve run into a zerg, but luckily I get to re spawn!

Is this the same YB that was complaining about everything just two weeks ago?

it doesn’t seem like it so I’m confused.

i have no idea what you’re talking about but.. this is the Yak’s Bend that is one of the most mature communities i’ve ever witnessed in an online game. this is the Yak’s Bend that has a very real sense of server community that makes its residents feel at home.

Its that Yak’s Bend. They have very little to complain about.

Interesting. I’d honestly never go back. But at least your experiences were positive.
