Guild Wars 2

Thanks for this list. I will make sure to tell my guildies to post here when they notice more. I think you got most of the ones we have been encountering.

Fire keep will not mark the enemies if they are from that map. As in, SBI’s borderland, we take fire keep. If they are in fire keep it wont mark them visible if we take their keep.

I would advise you also copy this and post it in the bugs forums. Not sure if they read that forum, but I am pretty sure they dont ever read this one. >.< Good work, though!

Blockhead Magee.3092:

You can see the higher tier servers and they’re generally busier.

http://mos.millenium.org/na/matchups

They might all be full so you might not be able to transfer in.

I’m on SBI too and EB is the only map you’re going to find any appreciable volume of people.

Bah, are you mad? Mag took everything you had yesterday, for hours. Try your borderlands, we’ve definitely been there :p

Maguuma is pretty active currently. We’ve had fun all weekend. SBI seems pretty active, too (well, until last night, LOL)

Zephyra.4709:

Maybe the devs are hiding from the WvW forums due to the intense backlash, verbally abusive, extreme saltiness and nasty, unhelpful, non-constructive feedback players seem to be giving them.

Not saying your post is laden with nasty things, in fact, it is quite civil and reasonable – I too, share similar thoughts and seek concrete answers… But sadly when the player base can only spew “this content is bad” and demand it to be addressed then no wonder we/those posts don’t get looked at.

A better attempt would be “this content is bad because X, it could be fixed by doing X ect” I believe these are the constructive questions/feedback ANet wants to see/will listen to but sadly many players resort to flame and aggrivation thus we get no where.

However, even though there is quite a handful of good/legitimate feedback, it is puzzling to see such silence from the devs and probes further questions… “Do they even listen to us or furthermore, care?”

When customers are left to wonder why they have spent the money they have (and a lot of wvw players continue to spend money to buy gems, to convert into gold……because you really cant make that gold in wvw), and then be ignored for 3 yrs by devs, its hard to not be salty.

PvP and PvE are addressed CONSTANTLY and CONSISTENTLY. WvW is, and has always been, ignored.

Sure, we got a new map. All the complaints happening now were very verbally said during the beta weekends. It seems like they ignored all of them and just didnt care.

How do you expect the wvw customers to stay satisfied, and stay part of a product when the retailers is ignoring our 1/3 of the customer base? Why should we continue to be nice, or constructive? We’ve tried that for years, that didnt work then. Why do you think it would work now? Have you seen the dozens of “constructive feedback” posts that have been made about the new system and the maps? How many dev responses did they get?

>.< (15 CHAR)

Infusion.7149:

The ought to have all the garbage you need to gather for WvW guild upgrades to be able to drop in WvW when you get a keep/tower/rankup.

Our entire guild mines, picks and harvests every single node we come across so we can keep upgrading our hall to get back the same upgrades we already had with the old system. >.<

We really could at least use an acknowledgement of the things that are completely broken with this expansion. Like, then entire borderland! I tried to give this new borderland a fair shake, but honestly……. it was designed to use the new masteries that they decided last minute to keep separate from WvW. It’s completely asinine.

Tyler Bearce.3427:

We are looking at adding a way for players to earn Quickloot in WvW as well. We wanted to keep PvE progression (Masteries) separate from WvW progression (Ability Lines). However this means when a new Mastery ability is created, that might also be useful in another gamemode, it doesn’t automatically crossover.

Why not just give us the PvE progression in WvW? It isnt like WvW doesnt have any PvE – its a full mixture of PvE and PvP.

Just please give us the crossover.

Yes, the Mag/SBI/CD lag is INSANITY! Please, lower the cap. Its reaching the point of just wanting the old maps back. This sucks.

The lag is INSANE for Mag/Sbi/CD. We cant even play on SBI borderland.

I have only gotten badges of honor for capturing keeps and such.

+1

I want it gone!

SoPP.7034:

This is hilarious.

THE game mode it would be useful but you don’t want it to crossover.

I keep trying to type this post but just find myself resorting to expletives.

This decision needs to be remedied immediately.

I agree with you, 100%.

“We wanted to keep PvE progression (Masteries) separate from WvW progression (Ability Lines). "

Can you please explain why?

1. Fix the queue problem. We had empty maps with queues last night. Made no sense.

2. Give us gliding and mushrooms. Seriously, would add a really cool and fun dynamic to the play of the maps! Think about it…..would be awesome!!

3. Make either +5 easier to obtain by guilds, or make siege less costly to use. We had a large group last night, and could not build siege to take keeps without constantly running to camps. It was just crazy.

4. Make easier paths to run between areas. Its way too easy to get lost. The verticality of the maps is really intense and its hard to see where you are going. (Or give us mushrooms/gliding to be able to handle the verticality easier – and more enjoyably)

5. Stop the announcements of “Servername took yadayada”. Cant be sneaky when you are announcing everything, to everyone, all the time!

Not fixed.

Let me edit this by saying – I cant seem to log into my necro that is in Lion’s Arch.

I thought you guys fixed this problem, according to Chris on reddit…… However, I am still getting the cant connect error since last night!

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Unable-to-enter-guild-hall-after-patch/first#post5682061

I have tried a couple of other guilds I am in, but my main guild Canadian Created Cheese Pizza [CCCP] guild hall is broken. We can not enter our hall at all. We most recently did the war room upgrade in the gilded hallow. Not sure if that is what did it, but its completely broken now………

This is a completely different problem from the unable to connect to a character. Please dont merge this with an incorrect problem. This allows our problems to get lost.

Hey, I said I was unable to enter our guild hall, not connect a character! Totally different problem!

Its like the wall/gateception going on. You can only take the towers by taking down all 3 sets of walls/gates. Its across all borderland maps. No clue if EBG is this way, considering I cant even enter the map.

Who cares.

God, I hope we never have another tournament. Unless they balance the servers somehow…. As if that will ever happen.

Saleen Jso.2645:

We have been stuck in this same matchup since the middle of July. For more than three months now, the same three servers.

This has become a real game spoiler. We feel like we know all our opponents, what builds they run, their tactics, etc. It is getting quite tiring to play against the same servers for such a long time.

MAG guilds have even tried taking breaks to intentionally lose multiple rounds, hoping that one of the other servers would move out and it doesn’t work. A lot of players are venting about it in team chat. Please fix this.

Maybe they should talk to (the server overlord) Xushin about their frustrations.

Tspatula.9086:

ArchonWing.9480:

I really don’t understand why I can’t be my own party and in a squad. I don’t want to rely on a commander to decide that. Taking away options is not something I can really agree with.

I don’t know, personally. Sometimes I just like to chat with just party members.

I think this falls under the category of, you can’t have everything… personally, I think the tradeoff greatly favors the coming squad system over the previous system.

You tell ’em spoon!

Yay, Gaile!! Thank you so much for letting us know about this. SO EXCITING!!!

Evan Lesh.3295:

Mewling Kittens.7965:

Noob question… what’s MMR?

It stands for Match Making Rating. We use the Glicko 2 algorithm to assign a number to each player that represents skill level in order to match similarly-skilled players together.

Details here:
https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/PvP_Matchmaking_Algorithm
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glicko_rating_system

So, just a quick question……. Is anyone looking into the Glicko rating system for WvW? Could we have the same bugs on our end, will this fix you did affect us, too?

Shiren.9532:

I got a reward for the first event in Brisban but it was only 5 blooms and a single chest when I had 14 stacks of the buff. Is that working as intended or a part of the bug?

I would really like to know that, too.

GaileGray:
Dang Mordrem. They’re EVERYWHERE! They even got into the code and did bad stuffs.
Seriously, we’re really sorry about the non-reward issue! The team is aware of the problem and is working to correct the issue as soon as possible.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/3kfa6t/just_did_mordrem_event_for_30_min_and_got_a_big/

Seriously, over half the map got no rewards. This is dumb. And, the most anyone got was 5 blooms. Considering somethings cost over 450 blooms……….how long do you think someone will be doing this?!!!

Akashi.3245:

Just like Eotm? No thanks.

Similar, not just like……. sorry, bad wording. It should be at least 5. They did show a video with 5 guys on charcars.

We have flipped the tower, started our own upgrades, but the waypoint inside is for the other team. They keep waypointing in, trying to flip the tower.

That is just NOT ok. Takes 30 mins to make them, and it only makes 1?!!

Please fix this. There needs to be AT least 5, preferrably it would be whomever wants one at that point should be able to get one…. Just like the scorpions in EotM

Roundabout.1752:

The option to pick Karma was removed from Enchanted Reward Boosts after the Aug, 11 update, I am hoping this is a bug, could someone let us know one way or another?

I would like to know this, too. I would not have BOUGHT all the powder to convert all of mine so it would be easier to carry had I known you were going to do this.

Please, either give us our option to use our powder the way it was intended, refund out gems/gold, or give us each some karma boosters to make up for this.

Hapmuhr.2781:

This is downright dishonest to do this. We were sold on the idea that if we used these boosters, we’d maximize our storage space and consolidate our available boosters. I would have never used up my karma boosters otherwise. Now I’m sitting with ~30 boosters that have been massively nerfed.

I’m very upset with this change since that was karma potential I had stockpiled in preparation for HoT.

Exactly this!

Well, this is a load of Dolyak poo! Karma booster is something I ran all the time. Like others, I converted them when BUYING the powder. Now I just spent all that gold/gems for something that was just taken back by Anet.

This feels like my bunny ears and town clothes ALL OVER. Getting real tired of this crap.

OMG, please lower the cap. The lag is INSANE!! Cant complete portals, cant cast skills, can barely move at times. This is ridiculous. We had none of these problems when you lowered the caps. Please, please lower them again.

Dusty Moon.4382:

That is part of the event – no supplies for building Golems.

You misunderstand what they said. They are able to dupe the golems themselves….. They arent having to buy any. They buy one, then can make many from the one.

I know they have gotten MANY reports about this. I am sure this will go right along with all other WvW bugs and just be ignored.

Johje Holan.4607:

71% chance of CD getting Mag and SBI. Wanna bet its still going to be Mag/SBI/HoD?

Oh god no. I really hope not. This is becoming very lame.

brently.7946:

They’ve already stated ALL of their staff is on HoT . They probably did pre purchase so early so people will buy it while still hyped, which will bring them back (when xpac releases) after they leave from total boredom.

This is about SAB, but in the second paragraph Collin explains:
“We’re all focused on expansion – both the announced details, and the un-announced details and simply can’t peel anyone off a team to work on it right now without it effecting expac. . . simply put our focus right now is on making the expansion amazing”

Some of the festivals wouldnt take much for them to just activate, however. There are festivals that dont happen in LA.

Killface.1896:

I take any old event so you can still focus on expansion,just getting nothing for ages now feelsbadman…

This!

Dragonbash, Festival of the Four Winds (is this even possible?), I dont even care what it is. Make up something random, mishmash stuff from old events into a new one. I dont even care if the npc’s fell down and we only see their heads sticking through the floor! Or heck, just floating heads would be ok.

Please, give us something to do in PvE…… Its SOOOOOOOO BORING waiting.

Can we have festival to celebrate something while we wait for new content? Please?

begs

Is it April Fools and I missed the memo?

Terrahero.9358:

tenklo.6104:

a slap to the face. regardless of what hand it is still a slap to the face……they new what they did… and they know we want to test this out.. it like waving a steak in front of a dog then slapping it with it. its gonna attack u for what u did.

This stress test was announced to happen before prepurchase was available, and at the time they already made it clear they wanted active wvw players to test it.

Neither is this test even a beta weekend event. Had they said “access to all bèta’s”, you’d have a point. But they were very clear (for once) that this was about beta weekend events. Something that has been clearly defined in the past.

It doesn’t mean you have no chance of getting in, just that it’s not guarenteed. And if anet sticks to what they said (for once), being an active wvw players increases those chances.

Yet the guy they gave the beta keys to is not an “active player”. He’s some kitten that happens to stream and has people who watches his channel. He has barely played this game, and doesnt really know WvW that well. It would have made more sense if they got true commanders that had been in this game since launch, are pretty exclusive WvW, and know what to be looking for.

Instead they went with people to help them PR push. Yep… GG Anet, yet again.

Have we ever had 3 servers figure out how many they all had, at the same time, before it hit queue?

That is the real question. If we havent done that, why not? Sounds like a job for Tier 1 to answer this for us.

Inculpatus cedo.9234:

Well, the Devs state that the ‘story of Tyria’ continues in HoT. I’m pretty sure they haven’t said whether that chapter of the ‘story’ will be finalized or not.

As to Legendaries, well, I guess they won’t all be available on release day. Sucks if there is something you desire that isn’t available on that day. Players can always wait to purchase until it is.

As for maps? Well, new maps were added to Pact Tyria, so I guess the core game wasn’t complete at launch. Maybe it’s not complete now, as we have no idea if any other maps will be added to Pact Tyria anytime in the future. /shrug

Dungeons? Can’t really tell if they are complete. If no other dungeons are ever added to Pact Tyria, then yes. If anyone counts Fractals as a dungeon, then dungeons weren’t complete at launch.

It just seems that using those parameters, no game can ever add any content after release (at no cost, in GW2’s case, even), or it will not be considered ‘complete’.

I would just recommend anyone less than satisfied with the content of a proposed paid release, to consider waiting to purchase until said content meets their personal requirements or expectations.

Good luck.

Holy Kitten…..What a well written post of exactly what I have been thinking! Thank you! Bravo!!

Josh XT.6053:

Yes, disable Grenadier as well on Engineer please. At least that will tone down some of this garbage.

Agree with this!
