Guild Wars 2

The top teams deserve a spot, considering they have already proven their worth and shown they have the ability to be considered a top team. I just don’t think its a smart move from Anet to exclude anyone, especially since they are trying to bring new players in. The exclusion from participating is going to and has kittened a lot of people off who were actually going to pvp, now you’ve taken the wind out of their sails. Next tourney shouldn’t exclude anyone who puts up a team and should take as long as it takes to wuss le the brackets down.
I would be kittened to because if I actually put the time in to form a team and practice with them and then didn’t get a spot it would be a total waste of time.
The top teams do deserve a spot just others shouldn’t have been excluded.

There is a big difference between a rank one and a rank 30. No one hasa legendary in pvp yet…tool bag
The end

Salvage kits are free on the rewards vendor in the mists.

He is #1 engie out of 10.

How do we know you aren’t just terrible and that’s why you got a bad team? Just asking and only semi trolling.

I love skyhammer…loves me some asura golf!!! Really, it doesn’t belong in a competitive setting, but I find myself laughing almost the entire time I play it

Thieves aren’t op but they have some bullkitten mindless skills.
Heart seeker for example…you don’t have to even be facing your target an you jump halfway across the map to your target when used and does a ton of damage. This skill should be aimed like ele burning speed. There are to many skills for thiees that being them directly to their target and then back away which leaves no room for counters. That’s why people think they are op. I don’t think they are, but they do need more skill shots rather than the mindless 2 spam they can perform now.

If you are rank 15…your are a noob. So they used the word correctly.

I missed your amazing ability to troll Ron pierce!!! Well done sir!

Lol wows pvp is horrible and for you to compare it to gw2 is laughable. Muahahahahah

If your trying to res yourself when there are enemies around…your doing it wrong. It’s probably better that you just die because the amount of time it will take for you to res isn’t worth it most of the time.

They need make hotjoin the place to learn. That means removing the team switch button and randomize teams when you join. It would be nice to have some area of the game where people could learn rotations and rolls, instead of mindlessly zeroing around not even caring about anything.
A major issue is that no one cares if they win or lose therefore they don’t care about their own personal play. Rewarding bad play only emboldens bad players to keep making mistakes and unfortunately there is nothing to show people what they are doing wrong or how to improve.
Also, I’ve seen as many bad players in solo q and team q as I have in hotjoin. I stopped soloqing because I lost count of how many times I would be capping a point and someone on my team would come and stand on the point when there are zero enemies around. They probably learn that from hotjoin because there that’s ok. They need to make hotjoin a teaching tool for good play rather than the zergfest kitten play it teaches now.

I love how people sit here and complain about how hard the pvp is To watch and yet in their signature they have their twitch channel…ironic huh?

Pvp with pve kittens??lol. You think pvp is unbalanced now let’s throw in all the extras from pve and see how kittenty it turns out.

Hello,
I am interested in a spot. I am currently rank 43 and play bunker guard or engie. I know rolls and rotations well. Your weekend schedule works for me even though I am on EST. Hit me up if interested.

" I play elementalist " you probably shouldn’t…

You don’t deserve a trophy for participation. I’m sorry the world has told you otherwise. Also, hotjoin was made for people To be able to come and go as they please… Therefore forcing them to finish would probably keeping people out because they are only there waiting for there queue to pop. So forcing them to stay is impossible but you can get them to atleast stay on the same team and attempt to win.
Also, if they leave before te match ends you don’t recieve anything so them leaving doesn’t benefit them.

You need to open them to get any skins you don’t have and the luck. I don’t know if they will be deleted but they have said to open them.

I feel like I should make fun of you but I won’t i will just play along…
No, you should not get the same amount of rank points for losing as you do winning. They already prop up bad play by awarding anything to the losing team. Anet needs to make hotjoin an actual place for beginners to learn about conquest mode rather than zergfest 2014. Removing the team swap ability and taking away losing points would make people actually participate in conquest and maybe try to win rather than just killing everything.

IMO they need to bring ele back to where they were before. The changes to ride the lighting and stun breaks hurt them badly. If ele was at the level it was a year ago no one would think they were op because every other class has gotten a lot of love in that time. I really don’t think the old ele could be considered OP in this meta and don’t see these changes to traits really giving them any upper hand.

Tdm is coming in the feature pack to custom arenas…wondering what class people are thinking will rule them all? What team comp? Anyone have a build they think will work better for this mode?
The map looks great…maybe could have been a little bigger but overall I think it should be fun. Any current maps you think would work for this mode?
I am going to run with my warrior for sure an am guessing a lot of others will too.

Your right I am sure NO ONE has ever complained about those things in pve. Also it doesn’t take two years of pve to acquire any of those things you mentioned.

Wahh they are making me rank 80 wahhhh I quit wahhhh way to go Anet wahhhh

There is going to be a use for gold in pvp…that’s the currency the new system will use. I assume ( or hope) they add some end game content. Skins? Titles? I don’t know what you want but I can tell you it doesn’t bother me people will be rank 80. They just need titles or some special rewards to seperate the average from the great.
Unobtainable goal? Let’s ask a game made up of 95% casuals and throw some unobtainable goals at them… That’s makes a lot of sense. I agree that there should be something that sets the pros apart from everyone else but rank should be obtainable by everyone.

They have a channel on twitch.

You miss heard the winners of the tourney will recieve legendaries and 2nd-3 rd recieve legendary mats.

How dare arena net make rank 80 an obtainable goal!!!! I understand you guys at 70 put a lot of time in the game and deserve some rewards but I really don’t see the problem with this goal being obtainable in 500 hours rather than 2 years.

Once again your wrong. Try might be fun but if you are playing at a highe level you can’t play a build because its fun, you play what gives you the best chance of winning. I wish every class was viable and had its role but that’s not the way it is right now.
I would hardly call hot join pvp.

Yeah no offense ricky but you’ve been saying that since you began posting.

What I got from uhtameit….don’t run meta builds run what you want to and lose. Or don’t pvp at all. Thanks for the advice

You have to play what the meta gives you. If you Tpvp and don’t play the meta you will probably hold your team back. Decap engie is so wide spread because its a troll build and solo q is the new hot join. I would recommend going solo in team q.

They are abundant because they are effective. And yes people are only complaining because of that fact. Decap engie has been here for awhile it’s just people didn’t realize how effective they could be in an unorganized setting. Why else would they come here and complain if a decap per hadn’t rocked their world?

I love how you guys are saying that these people have no skill yet you complain here because they owned you? Responsible? I am responsible for a legit build in the game and mechanics in the game? LOL sir!!

Not really, desperate people tend to make desperate decisions.
It’s like following this mentality: “If they cheat why shouldn’t I do this?”… and if you think about it, that’s the logic, the way of thinking process that makes real wars keep exhisting.
But it’s not cheating….it’s a specific build.

Hello,
I play a bunker guard and am willing to join up. I currently am rank 42 and also have a very good understanding of rotations an rolls. I can also play engie well. Hit me up in game.

I don’t really have a problem myself with people jumping to 80 because I like the idea of that goal being achievable. I think that everyone r 55 + should be. I also think it would be a good idea for a net to award everyone according to how close they were to rank 80 originally. Meaning if you were r 70 you should get a but load of rewards because of the amount of time you have invested and if you are 55 you should get minimal rewards for your time invested. But due to people being kittens and farming skyhammer this would reward mostly the wrong people.
It’s a shame that rank 80 was never an achievable goal and it’s pretty dumb that they made it that way. But I do think its a good thing that rank 80 is now achievable without a tremendous time sink.

This makes no sense to me…how would having an unranked queue be any different than hot join? If you made an unranked queue don’t you think that most of the Heros will just play that instead?
There needs to be a penalty in hot join for leaving and minimal rewards for losing. Also need to make it so you can’t switch when match starts. I don’t think there should be a leaving penalty but definately should not be rewarding people for switching teams at the right moment. Why not turn hot join into something that people can actually learn from and get rewarded for it rather than rewarding horrible play and the best Zerg.
I would also like to point out we had unranked ques for a long time and all people did was complain that there was no ranking system.
Soloq is a breeding ground for horrible play anyways unless you are high on the ladder and even then you sometimes get scrub teams. I recommend that if you are playing solo to just go solo in team q…you get better teams / better matches IMO.

If you play 20 games and win 18 of them and then stop playing. Before you know it you shall be número uno

Mesmers current role is equal to sitting on the bench. Other classes can fill rolls better than a mesmer.

@miskatonic. You don’t think they have someone bet every word they say? Why do you think they usually say " when it’s done or soon and things of that nature? Because there people telling them what they can and can’t say. They don’t give dates and they don’t give a ton of info because sometimes they don’t either know or they were told what they could and could not talk about. I am sure they have multiple people look over any “Anet” post because if it’s put out in tier name it represents their entire company not just one person.

I shall call him da champ along with huge and “the” Evan lesh.

As far as I know your pvp skins will be available but to actually use them you will need “charges” which initially can be acquired by any of the 1-79 transmutation stones or bought from the trading post. Also, if you unlock one piece on a character you now have access to it from all your toons. I think what’s his face is wrong saying " we won’t be able to use them cause we are not level 80" because you have already acquired the skin…you aren’t transferring the stats of the item you are trading appearances. Maybe I am wrong about that but appearance should have nothing to do with the stat bonuses. It will be a bit of a gold sink to get the “charges” because I am sure they will remove them from daily rewards.

How about no? I actually like the downstate…it adds a different element to a fight. Meaning if you do not stomp or cleave someone there is always that chance they could rally and now reset the fight. I admit it can be annoying at times, but I think it adds to the game nicely. As far as blinds and blocks, no. There are already a lot of ccs and different ways to prevent a stomp…there doesn’t really need to be anymore ways.

Everyone says they want team death match but we half have it with what we have now..all they need to do is take the cap points out and scale the points you earn per kil and bam tdm. It really wouldn’t change to much from hot joins :p

Hello. I am interested in da spot. I am rank 42 and can play engie or guardian. Hit me up if it’s still open

“This game is dead " go play something else bro. I would also like to point out they didn’t make this game for you to make money…they made it so they could.

I am looking for a permanent team but just for tourney is fine too. Wanting to expand the group of people that I Tpvp with in general.

@ Marcos and Dustin
Yeah after reading all your posts for about 5 seconds I think anyone who can read can tell who is the kitten between us!!! Everyone of your posts are negative or non constructive. All I red from both of you was " wah wah". Your words are empty when you provide no facts. I have no understanding of this game? I guess I need to post a thousand QQs to have your understanding? No, I just choose not to be a kitten boy, sorry.

Hello,
Currently I am rank 42 and exclusively play pvp. I excel at engie and guardian. Also I have a good understanding of rolls and rotations. I am usually online around 10pm est.

I agree with you that Anet had faultered. But people are already complaining about things in the feature pack when it hadn’t even been released or tested by the community. That tells me that people are just in general looking for reasons to complain, instead of using facts they are using theory and letting their emotions get the best of them.
To be honest, my expectations for this upcoming patch are low, therefore you probably won’t see me on here creating a thread kittening, because I didn’t fall for the hype. I will wait for the facts to come out before I come in here crying.
I would also like to point out that most of the people who complain about other classes, have never actually played the class they complain about. So, how can you have an honest opinion about something if you’ve never atleast tested it yourself? They come on here and read what others write ( wether it’s right or wrong) and spew it through out the community.
My point on this thread was not to get people kittened, it was to point out that a lot of the unhappiness with this game is self inflicted, and that needs to change.
