Guild Wars 2

I played solo queues last night and got skyhammer. I got so angry during the match that I got a headache. This map is affecting my health.

It’s a cool idea. But if you get more responses, they’ll probably be more along the lines of: “there are a few dozen things that should happen first.” Like new maps, new game modes, etc.

Which couldn’t be more true consider how extremely long it takes Anet to do anything.

I wonder if they take a long time to inhale and exhale. That could be the cause of this issue.

Or they’re secretly a company of sloths. Yeah. That’d make a lot more sense.

Then the devs would be way more snuggly and adorable, though.

I don’t agree with the idea of new professions.

Nutshel.7264:

these things are still not in that sorry exceuse of combat log… so don’t expect them being added anywhere

We can’t be so negative friend.

Moa is a weak elite. I don’t understand why people call it an “I Win Button”. Mesmers who use it in competitive PvP are gimping themselves.

I very rarely die from Moa.

I miss Ree Soesbee, she used to talk to me in game when I first started playing. She is a very nice person.

Instead of having the capture points gradually change color… make it so the surrounding area reflects ownership of the team in question.

So I’m thinking along the lines of destructible structures, NPC’s, foliage, etc…

So while you’re “capping” a point, the entire area will change to reflect the team capturing it.

I think it would be a really cool change.

What are the thoughts of community?

I’d also like to take this moment to give a shout out to Vee Wee #1 Engi NA, World First R80 – with graphics so HD I pooped myself.

This is my favourite map in the game.

Though I’m not surprised to see all these selfish Engineers, Thieves and Mesmers representing in the poll asking for it to be left in solo queue… It infuriates me.

You’ve already said that. Plz stop trolling.

I am not trolling. I am angry. I am very very angry.

Look at the Engineers, Thieves and Mesmers saying “Yes, Leave It”… lol kittenbags.

Julie Yann.5379:

I picture Devs sitting around a table plugging their ears with their fingers going “La la la la la la….” every time the Skyhammer subject gets brought up.

So do I…

This is easy.

The correct answer is Warrior. There is no arguing against that fact. Simply put… the most efficient profession in the game is Warrior. Period.

Nadha.6097:

Oh Dear!
As I am rather new to tPvP I was totally wondering the whole time where personal stats of the last games could be seen and what this strange page should actually signify.

I thought I was too stupid to find it^^ because I couldn’t believe you have PvP without that…

Well you better believe it.

You know what’s funny? The top players I know (Top 100), are really really nice people. It’s shocking how nice they are.

Your first choice should always be Magic Toker. However, if you want to see top notch Engineer streaming:

It’s official. Backpack is either the son of sataarconey or studied every ounce of his past and is the new sataarconey.

Let’s look at the similarities:

- Bad player making troll posts
- Lies to himself to make himself feel better (read my signature)
- Has an average team and gets carried by 2 players on it while the rest are mediocre(skovex and vyndetta days)
- Thinks he’s gods gift to earth
- Makes claims before it even happens(saying he would win the legends tourney)
- Tries to talk smack when he can’t
- Is only 15 and probably goes to Disneyland all the time like sataa

Maybe uses an xbox controller too?

Does anyone else see the irony in some of these statements (aka getting carried by 2 players cough cough COUGH COUGH). Also kitten gurl the rage is real

Lol so why is it u think I’m raging? I find the whole thing entertaining. Need more Sataarconeys. Everyone misses him lol.

Kizos meant you get carried by Tarcis and Hmann. Carry on.

Lol I know that is what he meant lol…..But that is also false. Im too fat for anyone to carry me :O

I heard fat people lag in real life.

Inscrutable.8347:

I completely agree that this scoreboard is and has always been garbage. It actually gives people incentive to not defend points, let them get capped, and then fight on the node that isn’t theirs to get kills, decap, and captures.

It literally promotes the kind of play that would get 500-0’d in any competitive game. New players need to be given incentive to defend points not give them up.

True, but this is only one of the smaller reasons why this is an issue.

Backpack, I demand an overall top 50 with NA and EU.

Forgetful Phil.6370:

What about Vee Wee – #1 Engi NA and worlds first rank 80?

Great question. Obviously this list is bogus if Vee Wee isn’t represented in the top tier.

Blu, how much money are you paying me for this?

I like conquest.

Where is Hehk?

Solstice.1097:

China (and eastern countries in general) have more of a competitive …. “spirit” in online gaming.

Racist.

I say 30 is a good rank.

I just saw a thread about someone requesting extra personal points for defending a point. The current system fosters these erroneous perceptions of shortcomings in a player. The ignorant masses will look at his contribution as inferior due to his role as a point defender and it racking up less “points” than everyone else.

The current personal point system needs to go. Please give us real statistics.

Last night I got skyhammer multiple times in a row. I raged so hard. Last night I did not enjoy playing Guild Wars 2.

infantrydiv.1620:

I think the tournaments really kinda had different moods… ToL EU twitch chat was probably the most positive twitch chat I’ve ever seen… then ToL NA everyone is bored or complaining because bunker wars 2….

It felt like GW2 could go somewhere during ToL EU, during ToL NA i realized we are still in the same hole.

I disagree. I found ToL NA to be a lot more entertaining to watch. I personally had fun watching it.

ceol.9175:

Agreed. They also need to determine participation better. Currently, if you don’t kill someone or are on a point when it switches over, you don’t get any personal score points. This encourages people to double/triple cap points or zerg around just to inflate their score. Normally this wouldn’t be a problem, but if you don’t score any personal points, you don’t get any reward track progression. A handful of times, I’ve been matched way out of my league or with people who are totally inept, and I wasn’t able to kill anyone or decap/cap a point, meaning I didn’t get any track progression for my time.

Precisely, personal score needs to go. It does not add any value to the game and it encourages stupidity. They also need to rework the dailies to discourage people from doing stupid things.

attrail.8613:

Its only in heart of the mists

Not for me. It happened to me in AC as well. I do however spend most of my time in Heart of the Mists.

For the past couple days I’ve been having weird random disconnects. Can anyone shed some light on what’s happening?

vincecontix.1264:

Moleless.1462:

I’m ranked 348 in solo queue and still regularly have low level players in my games.

But were all those low lvl players really bad?

Most of them. Yes.

gesho.9468:

as for high end, i dont think entire game should revolve around ten or so players.

Yes, but ALL professions should have solid representation on a competitive level.

Has anyone found my previous statement to be untrue? Are Rangers fine?

So, great job with making Elementalists viable.

So I took the time to speak with some high level players on the viability of Rangers. I was initially of the impression that they were in a good spot right now.

My discoveries unveiled the reality that though they are better, they are still not yet viable in high end competitive play.

I have even discovered that even Spirit Ranger (yawn) is losing its foothold in a competitive comp.

I’m slightly saddened by this and I don’t even play a Ranger. I think the developers should probably go back to the drawing board with Rangers.

Unless of course, I’m wrong?

Carpboy.7145:

Wintel.4873:

In SPvP everyone gets boosted to lvl 80 with normalized health, stats and gear and all traits unlocked. It doesn’t matter if your warrior is lvl 20 or lvl 80, in SPvP it will be exactly the same. What you are wearing wearing from PvE makes no difference.

Open your PvP Build tab and customize your PvP traits, runes and sigils from there.

Geiir.7603:

As long as you have your traits unlocked from your profession trainer you are on even ground with the lvl 80s

Profession trainers are gone buddy

Actually no. Buddy

AlbertoUlkesh.4517:

you can only switch characters within a similar MMR-range.

I was just about to state this as the perfect solution.

NevirSayDie.6235:

But then what happens when you create a second necromancer just to crush new players? Sure, your MMR would settle after five games or so. But then you could just create another necro, and another and another…all in search of that lucky 20-game winning streak to hit #1 on the leaderboards…

We need more separation between experienced/pro players and new/casual players, not less separation.

Then it could be separated by Profession then.

You may be a god on your Necromancer but you absolutely suck on your Thief. When you log on your Thief you should be matched with people of your current (Thief) skill level.

It’s just as bad as playing with level 1’s.

Kind Regards,

Jasher the Slasher your best friend.

If you don’t try to heal/evade and just attack, you die very quickly. This is not needed.

Paragon.5479:

ArrDee u are not number one engi u are not even top 100 stop spamming forums

How dare you. Vee Wee is #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80.

Not even close on both points.

Blasphemy. Vee Wee is the best.

Paragon.5479:

This is EXACTLY how I feel when skyhammer pops.

Jasher.6580:

I disagree. I think the option of bleeding enemies adds depth to the gameplay. It’s also a risky move. I have had numerous occasions where I was bleeding someone, and 2 roamers quickly came in and resurrected the person to my dismay.

Your suggestion would further dilute the overall PvP experience. I do not support your suggestion.

i agree with you as long as it (bleeding tactics) has some limits. but after some time (10-15 sec) self-defeat button would be fair.

If you are in a downed state and you don’t try to rez yourself or evade stomps… in other words, if you just sit there and attack your target you will die in about 10-15 seconds regardless. It will only be prolonged if you try to survive.

BLUna.7928:

Unlike EU however, we will not be allowing these Emergency swaps to happen on the day of the tournament.

gesho.9468:

Orangensaft.7139:

but letting enemies slowly bleed out so that they cant respawn so fast can be an intended tactic in spvp!

yeah, that’s what i’d rather not have. you won the battle. guy will respawn after a while and far away, that should be enough. there is only so much one should milk from one victory. further bleeding, poison and coming back once in a while is imo abuse, it is for that tactics exactly i’d rather downed player have an exit.

Chase.8415:

Or, they will just AFK the match and it ends up being a 3v5 and seal the fate of those who are still in the match.

Terrible idea.

Your logic escapes me.

As it stands, you get rewarded whether you win or lose. So right now if you AFK at home point and you let your team lose you still get gold.

What I’m suggesting is that you get nothing when you lose. So if you AFK at home point you will get nothing.

So… again, explain your logic.

As a die hard fan of Good Fights, I sometimes find it frustrating how humble they are. I’m pretty sure they would beat TCG if this matchup happened.

Oh and Backpack…

I have a lot of respect for Outplayed By Children… Solid Team… but seriously dude…
