Guild Wars 2

It took you 350 games to get to diamond and you don’t think there is an mmr hell?

This would help the queue time in ranked right? I don’t see any downside to making people play ranked.

I block bad players and team chat emo kids. Usually one in the same. Yes, it blocks them from your team chat, and no, I don’t care.

Im not really one to complain about the match making, I know it can be hell. This one is just more confusing than anything. All solo queues, 7 diamond and 3 legendary. The 3 legendary get put on same team. How does match making come up with this?

There are lots of below average players in ruby and diamond. People snowballing into bad fights, no rotating home on respawns, poor builds, you name it. We don’t need this in ruby and diamond. You go from only needing 5 wins to progress in sapphire to needing to complete the whole division to progress in ruby. Need to up sapphire to at least 8 pips per tier to progress.

You have to be able to carry to get into diamond. No way around it. Half the people in ruby can’t rotate.

average queue time: 2m, 25s my #$%$

7+ minutes every single time to join a 5 minute pvp match? kitten .

I am half way through ruby. But this is the same spot I was in when I took a break a month or so ago and the queues were only 2 minutes.

I quit playing this game about a week into the new season and the queue times weren’t bad, 2-3 minutes. Today I end up getting bored and logging off after 6+ minutes of queue time. I am not waiting to play this game for 6 minutes between matches.

the maps suck, the players suck, the matchmaking sucks, fml. The only reason i am still here is the combat. Anyone know any other games with similar combat mechanics?

Having sigils work off a CD that’s dissimilar to the weapon swap CD seems like it would just feel very bad.

Yea but I would still rather have the energy sigils with a stupid cd then not have them at all.

If people really feel it is “op” with a 9 sec CD, they should just increase the CD. Changing the whole sigil doesn’t make any sense. Especially on a patch that has already decreased survivability everywhere else. I have one 3 stack stab. This patch went from bunkers all day to 2 second fights.

They could have made the CD 12 seconds or something. This is just dumb.

That sigil has been in the game forever and not even very widely used.

Sigil of Energy. Why?

ok thanks. i forgot that option menu scrolled down. been forever since i changed the settings. dont know why auto target was even on. thanks

I guess it’s been a while since I played, but I don’t remember having auto-targeting on…. Got online the other day and my character was auto-targeting and I can’t find the option to take it off. Help!

Oh. I haven’t been in there in weeks. Might see if people are interested in trying again.

Everyone I know has lost interest in raiding. My guild tried the raid twice. First night we had 15-20 that wanted to get in on it. Failed for about 3 hours and quit. The next night we had a hard time getting 10 just to get started. Failed for 2 hours or so and quit. None of us have been back since. We never beat the first boss so we never saw any loot. Doesn’t really feel like we are losing anything because we never really gained anything in the first place. I guess the thought is to have one, maybe two, easy bosses that 10 people can get together and go beat without the super tryhard. Just to get people interested in 10 man, see the loot, kill a boss, whatever. Even in WoW there were raids that 10 people could pug in junk gear and kill stuff.

Is there any logic behind not getting a pip for a 500 to 10 win, no quitters no disconnects? Why no pip?

Why are you queuing stronghold only?

If you think that is selfish and this dishonor system is working as intended, expect to lose pvp players and extended queue times for everyone.

I just got 20 minutes for missing a queue check. I don’t know how many I have got, but what’s the problem with missing a queue check? Am I supposed to leave queue if I have to leave my pc for a minute? That makes no sense. If I have to leave queue that makes everyone’s queue times just as long as if I missed it, even longer if I make it back in time to hit OK. This is next level STUPID!

If you leave the queue, 9 other people will have to essentially restart their queue, as a new matchup must be found.

If you leave the PC for more than 15-30 sec, you need to leave the queue, as otherwise this will affect the experience of other players in a very bad way.

Imo, dishonor is justified in that case, though 20min seems a bit long to me, too.

That is BS. Im not going to leave my queue to run upstairs to get something to drink. They need to figure something else out. Giving someone “dishonor” for 20 minutes on top of it isn’t helping the queue times for anyone.

What does this actually benefit anyone? They are effectively making everyone’s queue times longer…

I leave my desk to answer my front door and when I get back I can’t queue a match for 8 minutes? Really?

Or maybe have 2-3 different unranked listings with different map options? We need more than one option. People aren’t participating on the maps they don’t like to play. That’s half the reason the people that played ranked chose to play ranked…

Thank You! I just finished my request!

I cant make a ticket because I uninstalled the game and every support option on this site is just a troubleshooting guide. I want a refund of HoT. Crashes so much it takes 45 minutes just to change maps in an attempt to stay connected. The 64 bit thing $%#% my client up and needs repair or reinstall and I just want out of this sick joke. I want a refund. Someone respond.

The crashes are so frequent and the story instances are so long that you can’t even finish one between crashes. Most frustrating game I have ever played. Closest I have ever been to requesting a game refund.

I have been getting a video card crash about 2-3 times an hour since the hot patch. It’s not the usual game crash, send a report to anet, etc. The video card crashes and recovers then I have to end gw2 in the task mananger and reload. It’s only on this game and only since the patch. I turned my card clocks down and my game settings down, still crashes.

This isn’t a pay to play game. Anet is in the business of selling shineys to casuals. They don’t make any money off of wvw players unless they pay to transfer. Anet doesn’t care about server balance or anything else in wvw. Why you think the only wvw subforum left is “world recruitment?” So keep transfering until your heart is content.

kingbread.6174:

maybe its time for free transfer to magumma and other servers, mmmm? listening? of course not

The only way Anet really makes any money off a wvw player is through player transfer. Anet doesn’t care about server balance. They see all this crying and moving as dollar signs. The more transfers, the better.

I got this email last night as well. I got 3 emails in total. 1 for change of email address, and 2 from “guild wars 2 alpha” about the eotm beta testing. They are all phishing attempts.

Link to my original post:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/account/I-assume-this-is-a-phishing-attempt/first#post3226339

Definitely legit? Hmm.. I contacted the gw2 support team and asked them about this. They said it was likely a phishing attempt and did not come from them.

From Anet:
The e-mail you have received is not an official e-mail from the Guild Wars 2 Support Team or ArenaNet. It is most likely a phishing attempt, that is, is a means of attempting to gain your account log-in credentials through fraudulent e-mails. We will not send e-mails about account terminations or account compromise incidents, unless in response to a players e-mail or ticket. Any e-mails of this type are most likely malicious in intent so please DO NOT click on any links within that e-mail.

So, definitely legit.. Probably not…

I got 2 of the same emails after. Both from guild wars 2 alpha and Edge of the Mists. Both are with the same attempt as before, do not click on any of them. All the links go to the same place. /account-dev.ncplatformDOTnet.. Do not click on anything with this link.

The web address for the link was to account-dev.ncplatformDOTnet…. That didn’t look right to me, so I never clicked it to find out.. I will change my pw, but I have been able to login since the email was sent. So I think it was just phishing…

I received this email 10 minutes ago. Edited to delete link.

There really isn’t a point to claiming anything in wvw if you’re not running upgrades, so I am not sure why people are claiming without buffs running..

But anyway, is it possible to make claiming only available to guilds that are running at least 1 wvw fort buff?

I do like this random system more than the old match-ups that lasted for weeks and months at a time. But Sometimes I do miss having a set match against the rest of my tier. I don’t know if this is possible, or wanted, just a suggestion.

To have a few random matches and then a set match with your tier every 3 or 4 weeks. One way you could do this is to have a set match on the last Friday of the month or something, and random matches the other weeks.

Heres some video of reset. Pretty good save at east keep around the 15 minute mark. The yaks bend zerg decided not to finish the last 2 of us off before going in the lords room, it proved to be a very terrible idea. Enjoy.

These new arrow carts are great. We can kill 3 superior trebs hitting bay keep from garrison in less than 30 seconds with one basic arrow cart at the bottom of the cliff. Just awesome.

Here is some video of reset night on Kaineng Bl.

If youre running a pug zerg, hitting targets with rams, and if you face any resistance you just hope you win… Then it really doesnt matter what class you are. But if you are running an organized zerg, using voice com, using combo fields, capable of 2 to 1 odds in open field, then I would say you need to be tanky.

When I command, I am the tip of the spear, always the furthest into the opposing zerg. That way I can tell people exactly where they need to be, on my tag. If the person with the tag isn’t elbows deep into the opposing zerg, it is hard to get others to push. I am usually the first one in, last one out.

Maguma and Yaks Bend, I am sincerely sorry we have a Sea presence but you knew that long before this match even started. You beat us once with our Sea presence and back then I would say our NA was stronger at defending. Do you feel better now? I don’t see DB crying about our NA presence as much as you all QQ. Suck it up and fight it out or you could simply join us because we all know DB’s Sea is loyal.

DB was the ones QQing about mags nightcapping? lol wut? All we did was point out who was actually nightcapping…..

ok so we all agree complaining about night capping is ridiculous, so lets drop it.

on another note I think DB is the only server in t3 that belongs here. both yaks and mag are t4 at best.

Your NA primetime is tier 7, at best…

Were any of you db players at that NE camp on db bl for that fight 15 minutes ago? Just wondering if you know how many people you had? Saw alot of NNK, guessing you had around 15-20, some might have been runbacks tho. We had 3 guildies and 3 pugs… Good fight.

Currently, it’s a quarter past 6pm here, 6am/3am in the US. Our Asians mostly start at 8pm our time, which would be 8am/5am, and lasting a couple of hours.

If my memory is still correct, 8am/5am is what people call “morning”.

Another thing, getting keeps upgraded and WP’d is easy. KEEPING them is hard. Plus, you don’t get to keep them “all day”.

Its soooo easy to get a WP…. where are yours?

Atine.8623:

Huge.5891:

call it what you want. 5 fully upgraded and WP’d keeps all day is now “nightcapping”

Pretty sure the db crew that comes through and caps everything and upgrades nothing while we are sleeping is “nightcapping”

I believe east coast of NA should be awake by the time NNK starts, so please check the timezones before you call other people night-cappers, thanks.

Oh right, my bad. Can’t call it night-capping if it’s 6am on the east coast. Everyone set your alarms to get up and play gw2… 6am sharp!
