They mentioned it in livestream but that matters nothing.
They may change rewards whenever they want. We haven’t got tickets in first Tournament. We might not get them in third Tournament. And they will just say its because they listened to community.
In term of WvW i dont trust even single word from Anet, based on experience in past.
Only thing I am worried about is that Season 3 may not give tickets are reward and ANet will use completly different system. Like new reward tokens.
I think this is the masterplan how to close some servers. They will just try to force players non violently to move to stacked servers. Then they will be able to justify closing of at least 50% of all servers.
My only problem is with TP. When I got my bags full I always try to sell greens at TP(4silver per piece? better than year ago) but after selling 3-4 pieces TP refuse to sell more and wil lshow error. i need to wait a while to try again.
Zylonite thats easy, because achivement hunters dont have many badges.

We are probably the only server that gained a lot by Season 2.
We had few transfers before Season 2 and during Season 2 we had time to grow together with new guilds.
Queue? Only top servers have queue. Half of servers on roster had last queue two weeks after Tournament started.
I am more worried that they will talk about WvW tournament one hour after wvw reset.
Isn’t this contraproductive? Wouldn’t it better to have this Ready-Ups for WvW one hour before reset?
Naz thats the point. 5 months later they communicated and were happy about all those player responses.
After closing of Commander CDI we get zero response from developers.
Now even a question what colors do players want for tags. This question, for example, is not important but will show interest of developers. And questions like this wont take long.
Players even did summarize all CDI topics, so Anet dont need to be bothered by it.
Dear Anet,
5 months ago, players posted a lot into Commander system CDI.
Because I use to command a bit, I have simple question. Will there be some changes to Commander system?
Even small changes like COmmander tag colors are welcome and will help commanders doing their job better.
Thank you
WvW player and occasional commander
Ring of FIre, well I can write a lot about this server. There is a group of guilds and a lot of players that keeps fighting.
You can see we succesfully pushed now to first place in current matchup.
We just dont give up and we are proud on it.
Right now, we have great night crew, we have great prime time, we even have something called afternoon crew, but we lack morning crew. We badly lack morning crew and we will welcome every player that plays during mornings in EU.
Join Ring of Fire. Join our great community. Join server that never gives up. Join for the sake of our lord Johny Cash.
Like 8 leagues in NA and 9 in EU? We already had this.
EotM & the PvE Megaserver were just the warm up to alliance style play, I think.
Then they have a problem that GW2 engine wont handle enought players in WvW and WvW maps are small.
Team chat do get suppressed.
If ever Anet will make Team chat server wide and on all maps, it would be rather based on EOTM not WvW.
I am still waiting for 4 months for Commander Icon colors, In CDI players said they want quick changes like different colors and bigger improvements later.
“quick changes” takes more than 4 months, bigger improvements wil ltake more than 10 years.
Anet did not even responded to any single Commander topic on forum after CDI.
One WvW thing every feature update. Now we had Account Bound WXP.
You need to wait for Feature update 2015
I miss things mentioned in Commander CDI. Its 4 months ago when players said that they want at least some easy fix fast. Like color changes.
Now we got wardrobe,which is difficult change, but new colors of badge are probably more difficult than wardrobe.
ryandeniszorro.6735 for example zerker rifle war was able to oneshot mesmer or thief. I did it a lot of times, but it involved that they should not know of me so they wont be able to dodge or block my burst skill.
I laughed a lot of some thieves that seen me channeling burst skill and went to stealth to make me loose target. That dont work on channeling skills.
That wrong.
They merged WXP not WAP. Its does not matter if you have all your points spent or not. WAP is dependant on WXP.
Just tested it, both proc at same time.
Independent cooldowns, so both should crit. Only question is if they will crit at the same time, like of fire and of air got same chance.
But they have different CD so only once every 15 seconds they should proc together.
Dont forget, when game was released, getting 100gold was much harder. For my first tag all my guildies send me money. That hard was to get 100 gold if you were not lucky to get some good drop.
Many people used real money to buy gems to convert them to gold. Also transfer rate was much different in those days. You needed more gems than now.
aka great bussiness to sell gems
Swapping attunements did not work for me.
Kits for engi did work.
And swapping weapons do work everytime.
Devon thank you for info.
Not only account bound, but in January there was CDI and people voted for fast small change like different colors. These colors were also datamined like 1 month ago.
Yet no response from devs.
I wish people would stop digging up old posts that aren’t going to be addressed!!!
You know why I did it? Because devs are telling us more than a year that its comming soon. Or that its not really a priority but they want to add it.
In the last year we have seen a lot of Living story, we have seen adding a lot of stuff. But these basics are being abandoned in the name of LS.
Like it took them a year to add some last login to guilds. Really? A year?
And I forgot, most overlays dont work in fullscreen mode. Just in any windowed mode.
Many players use fullscreen. Try to run the game in windowed on Windows 8.1 and move your mouse to some corner.
While using third party software I am unable to play the game. Not everyone got 2 or more monitors.
Because API can show it, and websites can integrate it, that code already exists.
Using third party (browsers) would be like using browser for using TP because in game it would show only sell and buy gems.
Will guilds anytime soon be more visible in WvW than just logo on banner?
Like making name of guild that claimed a part of land or guild logo in map?
First rule of MMOs: the best experience is always in the distant past or the near future.
Ahh not really, just remember all those fights between Horde and Ally.
All those memes that were created. All those videos. With deleting of MU topics, Anet actually killed a chance that something like this will grow in GW2. Something Lege… wait for it… dary. (see what I did?)
I probably know why Megaserver was introduced.
But what about a little change?
If you keep servers, keep server-only hub city. This should be not much a problem because hub city is always populated.
This way, guilds on one server will have a place where to meet, and yes I am refering to guilds and players interested in wvw. Or guilds with “server pride”.
Just one map in the world will stay server-only and its hub city.
In Commander CDI players answered easy question:
– do you want some easy fixes now or big fixes later?
And players answered, at least something like color tags now.
This was one of the first CDIs published (like 3 months ago) and dataminers discovered color tags in previous builds of game.
My question to Anet:
will there be any changes to commanders in Feature update?
Maybe just those color tags?
No account bound, but make reserved spot in wvw after you exit wvw for like 2-3 minutes.
This will not be applied on afk kicked players.
This will not be applied to players changing map.
Only on those logging of from wvw.
This way if you decide to relog, you wont need to go to queue. Relogging in fast, it an be done in 2-3 minutes and this period wont harm your server.
One thing from my list is gone.
Next is commander system and bugs/exploits in WvW(invisible gate, teleport through gate).
So.. because they said that they won’t do any major changes for WvW during the seasons, is it then safe to assume that account bound WxP is coming AFTER season 2?
Nope, seeing as the Feature Patch is coming in the middle of the Season and it includes some major professions changes I would say it is fully possible that they will release it during the season if ready.
Middle of the season? 2 weeks after start and 7 weeks until season 2 ends. Thats not middle. Thats right after PvE players will have all achivements completed.
I remember some time ago they talked about introducing more weapons to every class.
Maybe removing restrictions is a code name for allowing all classes to use every weapon. Aka adding new skills.
MS already have free transfers, but seems like almost nobody wants to transfer there.
Not much people went to bottom silver. I dont know why but its true.
Sesbog, there is a post somewhere that League participants are decided based on reset at friday 28th.
It was only for transfer cost that reset 14th.
Just for guys talking about ESO. Which build you played latest? In 1.81 animations were better. Nad according to patch notes, they even improved them in later builds.
Movement is not so bad with current acceleration/deceleration setup.
Lets wait that one week and we will see.
Of course silence of developers is not helping much.
Hyper Cutter, oh thanks. That means Ring of Fire is big server.
Hello Allie,
just one more question.
It means that in second round, (ill talk about EU) may be macthed together Gunnars Hold and Abaddon’s Mouth and Far Shiverpeaks? Because they all will probably winn the first round.
I mean like 3 matchups in silver league and winners of those matchups will be matched together?
That will be some awfull second round.
bump bump bump just because of all the people singing “My heart will go on” on TS
It wont kill me thats true, but why? Its like spending few hours every day in pve zerg wont kill you so you can afford to pay upgrades.
One thing wont kill you, all together are really discouraging to some type of players.
What did you expected? That they care about wvw players?
Well lets sumarize what happened today, but first one big note
- in WvW you wont make gold, WvW is more like a gold sink
So now:
1) master traits unlocked in various areas in world – this handicap WvW players as most of us dont have much map completation, if wvw player starts new alt for some reasons, he probably know the game, he also may have 100% map completation on his main, but he will be forced to play PvE and now WvW to discover these traits
2) master traits unlocked via gold at trainer- right now we dont know the cost, but it will not be cheap, otherwise there will be no point going to discover traits in pve. With previous note, it will just take more money from wvw players.
Yes you can earn some gold in WvW, but its nothing compared to gold earned in same time in pve.
conclusion: Anet change either upgrading system to not cost gold, or give wvw players more gold IN WVW.
Please read the note. Some items will be obtainable by achivements. I guaess some of components will be in achivements so every one will be able to get mistforged hero weapon.
But only few servers will have the option to get 2 mistforged weapons.
Tournament Season 2 is not for WvW players.
Tournament Season 2 is meant to be quick update for PvE players so they will have something to do before LS Season 2 hits the game. You know this thing called Achivements right?
And well PvE palyers don’t care about commander system, they don’t care about something called world rank ability points.
But they care about Mistforged Hero Weapon
The big hyped Feature Pack Update:
-class balance
-2 sigilds in 2h
-ferocity
