Guild Wars 2

900k Karma now 270 skill points

getting annoying

Daish wants to play 1 of his other level 80’s

Daish is quiting WvW for the rest of the week

Sea of Sorrows will lose alot of points

if you spam vunrablity on the npc it will die in seconds

Daish is burned out

people dont read posts this long if you have been on MMORPG’s for long u would know this

Engineer can also use “jump shot” to make it impossible to fail jumping puzzles and bypass large parts of them

best thing about Engineer in WvW is you can walk up to the door and use your flame thrower to damage stuff on the other side

you can even run outside click on the ram run back inside go to the door and auto attack the ram on the other side of the door

the best way for golems to be used is trying to hide their approach and less then 5 people go with the golems and go for the back door something that’s not checked on much

if there are 5 or less players in combat you wont show up as a big battle icon saying HEY COME OVER HERE CHECK THIS SPOT SOMETHING IS GOING ON HEY

so you could take 2-3 golems with 2-3 players and attack a back gate and break in before the other team even knows what’s happening

then its just a matter of who can fall back faster 1 team to defend the keep or 1 team to get inside the inner walls and stop the other manning the siege defence’s

whoever used 14 golems on a main attack has no idea what hes doing

Daish can see Sea of Sorrows coming last this week very easy

Daish checked out 2 Boarderland maps today and the players and Commanders had no idea what they were doing

it was very sad

players on SOS do not seem to understand that restart is on Sat for Oceanic players and Friday for US players thats the only reason for our higher score at the moment

that would promote teams to go after the weaker on the server 2v1

gg fail

start at 20 players

after 20 players there will be a player cap

so if there is 5 player on blue and 2 on green red will still get 20 players in

the cap will only work for the team with the most players

red has 25 players
blue has 20 players
green has 45 players

25+20=45

the weaker teams if they have decent commanders are more likely to attack the stronger team

this will help spread out the population and also make the game more enjoyable for the larger servers

joining a WvW game and your server owns 100% of the map and the other teams have left after u have spent a hour in a queue = not fun at all even if your server is winning you would have to be a idiot to think this is enjoyable

Daish plays a Engineer for his main just getting sick running into the enemy trying to get his server to follow instead of hanging back

so Daish dies alot so Daish is wondering if playing a Guardian would be better for a Commander it can buff players and stay alive longer then a Engineer

but no way in hell Daish is going to spend another 100 gold

Daish would rather go play planetside 2 instead

Xpiher.5209:

The fact the commander title is a money sink is itself kitten It should be a community vote thing. Say 10 commanders per server?

you can already turn Commanders icons off by joining a 1 of the Commanders Squads it will turn the rest off

Daish thinks thats a bad idea there should be some kind of player vote system and the top 3 should be shown on the map (but you need a Commander Token before you can be voted for)

Gold for 1# Silver for 2# Bronze for 3#

there are 4 WvW maps for each server

folding = immaginary unless your on a very low population time of playing and you have no full servers

main character.5460:

Orbs should give buffs that don’t affect combat because currently they give a ridiculous buff to HP. +30% HP might not seem like a big deal but consider even with equal sized armies that the whole enemy force has 30% more HP than yours. Two armies meet in the open field and one has hundreds of thousands more HP, who do you think will win? It only gets worse when a defender has that extra wall of HP. This in my opinion is the biggest snowball problem next to free server transfers.

3 teams

100vs100vs100

1 team is stronger and has orbs on more then 1 server

the 2 weaker teams are more likely to attack the stronger team (team with the orbs)

end

its not a 1v1

that really hurts low population servers

Daish is almost up to 800k Karma / 248 Skill points that’s with only 62% World Completion and Daish wants to play 1 of his other level 80 characters in WvW

but Daish would lose his Commander icon and there is no way Daish is going to spend another 100g Daish would rather quit the game

can Anet make the Commander tag bind to the account and not just the 1 Character but you have to be level 80 to press the “Create Squad” button

if your not listening to what the Commanders are saying and are provokeing the other weaker team to attack you and start a fight that opens a window for the stronger team to capture 100% of the map

well i guess your the problem your the reason the stronget team wipes you out

your the snowballing issue that needs to be destoryed

there are 3 teams not 2

its a 1:1:1

orbs work fine and cause no issues at all

they promote the weaker 2 teams to attack the stronger team

Please tell me this is some form of sarcasm. Can you show me an NA matchup where this is actually working as intented? The only one that I could possibly think of is Kaineng and (possibly) the NSP matchup. Sadly, transfers have screwed these matchups up so badly that it’s hard to even tell.

you have played on every server have you? wow your pro

it working as intended on every server who dose not have idiots as Commanders

if you go for the stronger server on your matchup and ignore the weaker sever they are almost never going to even attempt to attack you

the stronger server is going to be the 1 with the orb

No, I haven’t actually played on every server. I’m not really sure if I should even bother responding to this. While what you’re saying sounds great in theory, it’s much less cut and dry in practice. One of the reasons for this is because organizing two servers to compete against the winning side is quite difficult. It’s actually easier to take towers and supply camps from the other server that is already “down.”

Additionally, the week matchups and scoring system really make it difficult to form alliances to take on the stronger server. The matches are dynamic, and what do you do if one of the two “underdog” servers gets on top? Do you instantly call off the truce and slaughter each other? In DAOC, you knew who the strongest server was. If you didn’t work to change things, you were stuck in your matchup for eternity. Things were enver going to change unless you did ti yourself. In WvW, if you simply wait a week, the change will be made for you. Simply put, it isn’t worth the effort for a lot of people in WvW to form these alliances, especially with the free server transfers. Is this a people problem? Perhaps, but what do you think is easier to change, the free transfer and orb snowballing systems, or changing the mindset of every player that logs in to play a video game?

it works all the time on Sea of Sorrows when im Commanding

its not a Alliance you cant take their part of the map

you need to sacrafice whatever their part of the map is

say its a boarderlands their part of the map is tower/keep or towerx2/garrison

your Commanders are jokes if they cant maniupulate the other servers into helping destory the stronger 1

if you end up taking the stronger team out then you take out the weaker server that just helped you by being a distraction and you capture the whole map

Enenion.8127:

@ Daish:

No, that is the opposite of what happens. When one team owns all the orbs the two teams without them are encouraged to fight each other more than they are to fight the team with 3 orbs. Why? Because it is easier ti fight the team that does not have +150 to all stats and +15% health each. The stats on the orbs only encourage infighting between the losing factions, which is one of the reasons the tactic you talk about is so rare in WvW.

you have some horrible commanders then

lets all turn around and put our backs to the stronger server and fight this other guy

anal kitten comenceing in 3…2…1….

of your into that sort of thing thats fine but thats not the way you get more points and become a stronger server

the stronger server is going to be the 1 with the orb

the alter in a keep my server owned was destoryed

i picked the orb up then placed it back in the 0% hp destoryed on the ground alter

it repaired the alter back to 5% hp the alter then slowly regained hp back to 100%

combat swords on the map will apear if more then 5 players are in combat and close to eachother

Commander icon is so you can see where your players are on the map hes leading them

there would be a major issue with spy accounts and cheating if every player showed upon the map

maybe the issue here is your walking around alone

there are 3 teams not 2

Daish is the best Commander on Sea of Sorrows

the stronger the orbs are the more chance of the 2 servers without the orb going for the server with the orb

the orb really helps to balance out the game making it weaker/worthless would be like cuting yourself

getting a foothold in a 1v1v1 is very easy

getting a foothold in a 1v1 is hard

invisable players seems to be getting worse ive ive been attacked and slowly killed by invisable players now over 10-20 seconds i can see the invisable projecties “arrows” flying though the air hitting me

not just the instant invisable zerg killed in 1-2 seconds then i can see them type

you can see what guild kills you

thats all you need

this game is Guild Wars not 1v1 player wars

need balance already wvw is so boring without it

hackers and bot users in “World of Warcraft” tell the stupid staff that their account was hacked and it was not them and they get it back 100% of the time

Anet please dont be as stupid as the dumb @#$%’s at “World of Warcraft” tell players its their responisablity to keep the account safe and if they do something wrong and it gets hacked and used to exploit the game they should be banned

its kind of ruining WvW right now

there is a hacker on Fort aspenwood opening portals for the players to bypass walls with

the hacker was on Sea of Sorrows first but we told them to leave and were not going to use their portals to cheat

he then said he was going to transfer to Fort aspenwood and help them bypass walls

i dont remember the name of the player but i reported it was a bot

the players who make the choice to take the hackers portal are just as guilty as the person teleporting around and need to be given a warning or temp ban

3 teams makes it better

your talking jibberish

yeah WvW is becoming extreamly unenjoyable on servers without max population 24/7

they need to do something now before people leave the game

gamers are not the type of people who will come back and give something a 2nd chance

mcl i dont know why you keep crapping on but this is about the players who are in the game and want to keep trying even if their server is currently loseing

because of the lower population joining WvW there needs to be a balance system

1 team out of the 3 should not have more players then the other 2 teams combined

that simple

Winterwolf.3782:

I love being grossly outnumbered. It makes every success my team achieves feel like a real victory. I understand that this can get old quick for servers where there is a chronic population deficit, but I don’t feel that this is a reason to create longer wait times for other people. Punishing players is never the right answer.

its still going to alow them to have basicly doubble your numbers

its not punishing them at all its going to make WvW more enjoyable

if you own 100% of the map and have nothing to do you may as well be in a queue

There is always a chance. There is only no chance when everyone gives up. You don’t need external motivations to fight. If you do, that’s a sad state of affairs.

your talking out of your butt

when its 100vs20vs10 you dont have a chance

when its 35vs10vs15 you have a chance

there needs to be limits its 1v1v1 not 1v1

there needs to be a cap on the ammount of players based on how many are on the other teams

the server that knows they are weaker if they have smart commanders will focus on the stronger server and avoid the weaker server when possible

if players/guilds are really into WvW there is nothing stoping them from transfering their home server to play in a lower population server

There do not need to be limits. There need to be servers full of people who aren’t quitters; who refuse to give up when they start falling behind.

You do not fix psychological shortcomings with game mechanics.

If it’s that imbalanced, it didn’t start that way. It wound up that way because the people on the losing teams are quitters, plain and simple. They don’t want to lose, they don’t like to lose. Their solution to losing is to quit. They fail to realize that if they don’t want to lose, they should fight to win.

you dont know what your talking about

there is a large population that are willing to play as long as they have a chance

these are the players your loseing

the other type of players that leave when they are loseing are not important

try leveling up and get talent skills instead of being level 5

orbs are fine because its 1v1v1

if it was 1v1 orbs would be a horrible idea

Redundancy.7325:

Kyus.3812:

this breeds defending by not defending.

also if you don’t show up to fight you should lose. this kind of queing locks people out of content due to other peoples choices you simply can’t do this.

People are already getting locked out of content due to other people’s choices. What do you think the weekend queue times look like on HoD, for instance?

entering the map and having nobody to fight is the same thing as sitting in a queue

there is no content

something slow players do not understand yet

yeah alot of players are like that Tzash

but there are also alot of players who like a challenge and are willing to stay in the game and fight as long as there is some kind of chance and its not just bending over and being kitten in the kitten /p>

your right about it being about Morale but none of that will work

the Alliance thing would be the only thing that could work but it would be open to abuse

check my post about how to balance the game if people know they have a chance and are not going to be compleatly kitten Morale wont drop so fast

yeah your right Eihder

for the last 2 weeks my sever has gone out of its way to try work with the other weaker server to take out the stronger 1

it has made WvW much more enjoyable even tho we are still out numbered 3 to 1

And did you require ANet to implement some form of artificial limits to achieve this? No.

it took alot of effort and was draining to fight 3:1

we cant keep it up more and more people quit and are

“screw this im just going to wait for next week”
or
“lets attack red because blue is to strong this is stupid”

no that would be horrible it never even worked in WoW they ended up removing it

if you have the outmanned buff you need to leave that boarderlands and try get your server to group up in 1 map instead of spreading out between the 4

longer matchups force people to work togeather to take down upgraded buildings instead of waiting for a restart

shorter matchups cause people to move to the higher population servers

Anet seems to have some bad mods who dont know what night capping even is and removing posts

ill repost this link
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/pvp/wuvwuv/World-vs-World-Player-limits-are-needed

night capping is only a problem because of how unbalanced the servers get when they are not full

there needs to be limits on the servers that lets players know they can hold stuff and still have a chance when they are out numbered

if the lower population servers have 20 players and 15 players the high population server should only have 20+15 players MAX alowed to enter the server

so that would give 35 players MAX even if they had 150 players queued up unless players from the lower teams queued up

if players from the lower teams leave the cap for the Max Population team would shrink but players would not be removed from the game

this would mean late night players can defend without any major issues and not just be like “$#&@ this we have no chance lets leave” and have everything whiped out like what is currently happening

like that instanced puzzle the burning legion 1

they could make only 1 jumping puzzle instead of 3x as well nobody wants to do it 3x a day

yeah your right Eihder

for the last 2 weeks my sever has gone out of its way to try work with the other weaker server to take out the stronger 1

it has made WvW much more enjoyable even tho we are still out numbered 3 to 1

this is the only way to fix it
