Guild Wars 2

Agreed 4v5 is hurting the game right now

Great idea fill from Q when someone doesnt enter on their own and not forced during the last 10 sec counter.

So I keep getting 4v5s. Why isn’t Anet giving this more attention?

discuss

add pics of your 4v5s below

A-net Propaganda answer: We are well aware of this problem and are working diligently on a solution. We anticipate this fix to be ready sometime “soon” tm.

A-net Real answer: We are well aware of this problem but pvp doesn’t make us any money so we will get to this later rather then sooner as our limited resources allow us to.

Why dont they make enough money from PvP content? Those finishers! $10 bucks

I like this idea, it would help PvP alot

Can we get an update on 4v5s Anet?

did report for botting work?

ignored, no red tag lol

Option A: pvp style race to the top with 5 people on each team.
Option B: throw the clocktower in the center of legacy of the foefire. Capture point at the top. no sides.

Which do you guys want to see next? Discuss

Not sure why PvP can get living story updates aswell? they make plenty of maps for PvE!

Just to confirm, we are working on new maps. I can’t give too many details, but a few things:

I want a tower in the middle of the next map please. 50% fall damage might be a useful trait.

You know what just throw in the mad kings clock tower into the center of Foefire please, thanks. Cap point at the top

Azshene played 1 game since Solo Q release and hes #1 and your telling us you increased decay LOL COME ON

Actually, the last time Azshene played was on the 3rd of October. You can view the last time a field changed on the leaderboard. Just hover over it and a tooltip will pop up.

It frustrates us as well when we see people that don’t play often at the top of the list. We’re definitely agree that needs to change, so now is a really good time to keep those ideas coming.

Yes I know that, what I meant was he played his 14-0 games when SoloQ 1st released and since he has PLAYED 1 GAME over MONTHS and maintains #1 spot. You knew what I was saying And you tell us you increased decay Lol

My prior post was infracted and Donna “Danicia” Prior said rewording it would be acceptable.
“This is in no way meant to be rude, the devs are doing their best and their is no rudeness directed at any dev. Its trying to help.”

I think outsourcing devs from other games is NEEDED to get new ideas for GuildWars2.

For along time we haven’t had many fixes to PvP and the game in general aside from temporary fixes. The community has alot of great ideas for 4v5 and Qtimes, ect but its not being taken and used.
So maybe if they hire some developers from another game for a short time they can get some fresh fixes and jump start their creativity and motive. Other games have done it.

Discuss pro/cons on how this could help the game right now. Its in DIRE NEED of it.
How could this help Spvp?

Justin ODell.9517:

We’ve actually increased the decay multiple times now, but have been purposely making small adjustments for at least two reasons.

1) So we don’t overshoot. The last thing we want to do is punish our players for not having the time to play every day.

2) The change is retroactive, so the changes are very visible to people tracking their ranking. We don’t want to give the wrong impression to a player when their rating changes for seemingly unknown or confusing reasons.

We’re looking into ways of improving the leaderboards, so please continue offering us your ideas. In the mean-time, I’ll bring up increasing the decay with the team.

Azshene played 1 game since Solo Q release and hes #1 and your telling us you increased decay LOL COME ON

LBS are for people playing weekly.

You afk for 1 week you drop 500 ranks, you afk for 2 weeks you drop another 500 which is off the LB ranks. GG thanks Anet

Krayiss.4926:

PvE then 2 weeks WvW then 2 weeks PvP. So us Spvpers get something every 6 weeks
Gogogo Anet 2 the whiteboard!!

I could have seen fighting Scarlet in the mists on a Pvp map as EPIC!
If they did this it would drive every1 doing the 2week stale living story to new parts of the game. All the living story kids would get to experience WvW and PvP.

As of right now they need to farm PvE living story every 2 weeks and don’t have time to jump into WvW and PvP. But If they continue with the 2 week patch then just mix in WvW and PvP.
They would still add in gem store items which is making them money and living story kids would be happier.

Make an AREA in the mists for battle!!! not the whole thing

PvE then 2 weeks WvW then 2 weeks PvP. So us Spvpers get something every 6 weeks

I say the just hire a dev team from another game to fix it

ya its cause its 2 late and you only have 2 warriors on each side.
Prime time every1 knows its 4 or 5 warriors on each side then its balanced

They dont care.
And actually the default report is BOTTING, try that from now on

They dont care
/15 chars

Dont worry it will be either the last day or pushed into the next year.

What Im saying is they have PvE monsters like the Keep Lord +4 soldiers in PVP. Y are they splitting skills in the 1st places?

Just change PvE fights so that PvP style skills work is all.

So you like fighting weak monsters. Whats world PvP?

BTW you could have a better game if Anet didn’t divide the game into 3.
If they all worked on the same thing this game would be awesome!

AH good idea kirito

If anet would stop making 3 different game this would all have ended by now.

Make it ALL pvp combat.

Make all the pve fights more like pvp. Give the enemies some human AI and let the game have tougher fights.

Discuss how Anet could accomplish this.

this game poo 15 chars

Hey Anet can we get some new code/algorithm written for pvp to make it so we dont have to wait 22 minutes for team Q or 30 minutes for SoloQ?

GW2 pvp isnt competitive unless you set up your own skrim so why cant they do this?

Why wont they add a ready button. Im guess the code is 2 hard for their system, or they dont have enough money, which is it?

Im just wondering what the community feels is the least bugged class right now.

Discuss which you think is the least or most bugged.

I think necro is the most bugged because staff marks when interrupted are not set on the interrupted cd of 3 seconds but instead the full cd…

Please rework dishonor. 1 out of every 2 games either I have 4 people or the other team has 4 people.
Please discuss CONSTRUCTIVE ideas on how to fix this.

Devs GW2 January PvP Word BROKEN Y/N?

wtf u guys are weird

They dont test anything its not in their budget you shouldnt fuss so much. PTR would have never let this see the light of day.

10 people are put into teams based on MMR. It would break that code and is 2 hard for them 2 write.

They would have done it day 1 if they cared/wanted it. They have thought of it already and dont want 2.

Im pretty sure when skyhammer pops every1 reports the other team 4 botting then all go watch cat videos on utube.

The code they would have to write is way 2 hard.
+Q times would be 10 hours or more since 99% only plays warrior and sometimes ranger/necro

And its not even profitable for them in the 1st place. Just use the lfg no1 uses and teamQ

Iplaytokill.1674:

First Anet lies, now you lie.

Good thing I don’t need pictures for proof! I’ve seen 15+minute que times on soloque.

THEN I QUIT ^^

Who said Anet was lying? And what am I lying about?

@sorrow
u madbro? Should I get my facts straight? SoloQ was so long I decided to TeamQ. Stop trolling man….. lol

Wispy.8679:

I just came here for the pics.

I’ve been lied to….

Here I got you 1 just now

So I keep getting 4v5s. Why isn’t Anet giving this more attention?

discuss

add pics of your 4v5s below

I feel the same way. So many promises XD

Devs said wed just have to wait since SoloQ was only a day old. Now whats the excuse pvp is declining? Doubt we’d ever hear that.

They have been telling us its on the rise. So with Pvp population on the rise since SoloQ start why are we still waiting the same Q time if not longer?

Hammerheart.1426:

Never.

Fixed, thats what you meant to say

Team Pathetic Trash [TpT] add to list pls
my guild leader quit so Im the only 1 left.
But Feel free to scrim me anytime 5v1, I usually singleQ in teamQ so you’ll see me alot of time with 4 noobs so its basically a 5v1 if you ever see me in teamQ and thats my team.

If Anet needs more people to fix this then why dont they get some volunteers from the community?

@NevirSayDie & Yasha

MMR primarily matches groups of people in similar rank for example ranks 30-34, 5 people and then matches them off against either a group of higher or lower ranks maybe ranks 150-154.

Its been confirmed. The devs said they will be working on MMR because they know its broken its no secret. Once you make it to the top 100 its very easy to stay, and if you play enough games you can get lucky to rank #1

Everyone knows SoloQ is luck.

Simply Q at the same time of someone who is within a few ranks +/- 10 or so. Or at the same % rank and you will 9/10 get on their team

NevirSayDie.6235:

But not everyone who has hit the top spot had to resort to stuff like that.

or you can get lucky the 1st try.
MMR is broke and you get synced Q if you can make it past the 1st 5 games w/o losing.

Then its just luck weather you get a 4v5 then next 14 games

On Solo Q you look at % of people who have played 100 games and 80% means your good lol

Just sync Q with ur friends and stay on voice chat. Or maybe you can get lucky.
Took me less than 4 tries NA 19-1
3 tries on EU 19-2

P.S. 2 of the loses were from 4v5 :/ and on my 1st 2 EU matches I forgot to set traits after restting them, won the 1st game but not the 2nd :/

I believe your supposed to use the report for botting, its the default right now. That should solve your problem

Next patch something might happen, hope that answered ur question

is Xeph coming back this next patch or no?
