LOL. SoR must have had 10 less ppt than usual during NA primetime at some point. Mance was getting excited cause he wasn’t a giving us Spikes and Hooves for 4 hours for once. On a side-note, as a representative of Choo, I’d like to say that WE make the best clam chowder. KnT’s clam chowder is ok, but the flavor just doesn’t quite make the grade.
I was excited to go against this #1 NA server you all kept talking about, just didn’t find it.
Maybe we’ll come slum it up this week again in SoR if BG (an actual threat) gives us a chance. =)

SoR has several havoc squads.
If they exist, they’re really ineffective or led by incompetents.
SoR’s response time as a server is atrocious. We never manage to control a majority of supply camps on any borderland. While a huge SoR zerg is chewing away at one of the two keeps, all the northern supply camps regularly fall to the enemy…and stay that way for multiple ticks. NO one reclaims them except for PUGs. For the record, yes, I am on SoR. Yes, I have been engaged in WvW since the betas. No, I’m not mistaken about this.
If our “havoc squads” snicker aren’t reclaiming lost camps (they don’t) and they aren’t capturing enemy camps (they don’t), then what the kitten are they doing?
You know…if they exist, that is.
Next time you’re angry about camps being flipped in exchange for a keep (25>5 BTW) take a look at the timer. A lot of people don’t, and they flip camps in between ticks.. Which is annoying but pointless.
But yes, SoR has lots of big guilds and lots of solo players… It’d be great to have a few more small teams form up out of our existing player base.

I can’t agree more, while I respect what TW is able to accomplish on the field and the caution they put into their enemies is obvious, to think what you guys do on your BL is replicated across the board is quite presumptuous. You do realize there are 4 BLs right? So while you tout SoR this and SoR that, maybe you should rein in that arrogance, and give your enemies the respect they deserve.
Respect is earned. Not whined into.
As if SoR were the wellspring of all things unvirtuous.

Seriously, some of you people have absolutely no perspective outside of your own little world.
Honestly covenn, you may want to think about this statement and see how it might apply to your own viewpoints. I think sometimes you may take what TW does and assume that’s how it’s working on other maps for SoR.
These are both so very true.
On any given night none of us has more than a faint idea what is going on in the other maps. It’s entirely possible for each server to have glorious victory, crushing defeat and a double shot of stalemate going all at once.
I personally love seeing people agree so aggressively that it looks like an argument at first glance ^.^

I hear maps are in the works.
Glad they prioritized mechanics actually, though I want maps too.
I still resent WAR for throwing in big speakers before getting the rust work finished.That is good news, I hope they can roll em out before summer.
Yeah, WAR… I enjoyed the combat there but so many mechanical problems in the big fights. Took over a year for it to be reasonably working. Culling was annoying but nothing compared the the intense lag and server crashes in WAR during the first 3-5 months.
Its funny, Aion was fun because flying combat was different and fun (IMO) but man the grind, and WAR was also fun but had its problems. Rift had some good classes and combat but just abandoned PvP since the PvP in open world was crashing their servers. All had many core ideas done well but none were close to a complete package. WAR was probably the closest.
… heh, was gonna go into a long littany of stuff but just not the proper thread for “why we can’t or haven’t had another DAoC” yet. I also greatly enjoyed Shadowbane but I can’t imagine another game being like that ever again, it was unique.
AT least GW2 is good/solid. It lacks a couple key RvR/WvW elements but overall very well done. My personal contention is that I like more choices when fighting, so the 10-14 ability buttons seem a bit low to me, but that is my preference, not a knock on the game. If they ever allow for easy switching of traits and gear, I’ll be very happy since then I can switch around ‘on the fly’ and get more interesting gameplay.
You can switch traits/gear the moment you’re out of combat. I do frequently, adds value to scouting.
I don’t believe even DAoC was as good as people remember, much like pining after lost youth.
This is vanilla GW2. Compared to what I’ve seen, this one has potential. I’d like to see an 8year old gw2.

Fill in the blank.
JQ = ?
SOR = ?
BG = ?Aquatic version!!!
JQ= 20% Whale 80% Barnacles ….FOO being the whale…incoming!
SOR= Jellyfish zerg…get to close and it may sting
BG= Hermit Crab…get them to come out of their shell and they may pinch yaHeh, that one was funny.
I’ve seen JQ, SoR and BG groups of 20+ all fight well. The game is about coverage so JQ gets an edge and so what? It isn’t like we lose relics.
The problem I have is teh repetition. We have masss fights so often that there isn’t any ‘getting excited for the big brawl’ feeling, or, "lets try something really different/innovative by…’ talk (well, there is some but it matters for liek a few hours if something gets planned and then its same-old, same-old).
There’s no downtime, no time to just have fun fighting and fooling around with 5-10 buds. Maps funnel players, small objectives are too close to keeps. Its just big blobs and havoc squads. We really need bigger maps, more objectives that are minor but are fun to fight over, more varied terrain… just more spice to WvW. Its a great start but man, I need to hear some plans on what they will be adding now that culling is fixed (it took awhile but that fix made a huge difference for me, so bravo).

Meh, as in events? Always a mess in open world.
It’s up to the players to create differences in kind of experience. One moment you’re the powerful invading army, an hour later you might be in a single squad fleeing the zerg. No gaming company can do this for us, that’s why sandbox play is so unique.
Trouble is knowing how to create these circumstances for yourself, rather than relying on the rails to steer you in a direction…

I hope BG isn’t burning themselves out this week to impress potential transfers
You guys may crash and burn next week if so!
Your concern is very touching, I will kill you last.
A lot of it has much less to do with Blackgate and more with JQQ… see, some people on another server decided they’d try for the 2nd place and in doing so made themselves the big fat target.
Welcome to being piggy in the middle, from someone who’s been there.The #1 see’s you as a competitor, the #3 is just kicking you to the point you’ll cough up a testicle and breakfast, because you deserve it and at a personal level, I just really like planting people from SOR and burning their ppt. At least I like you that much, JQ has no redeeming features aside from being a screaming red horde of disorganised name tags that we can fairly consistently punch bags out of if we’re not vastly outnumbered by at least 4-1.
(I’m still laughing at the fella saying ‘we only got 40!’, hell mate, if I had 40 KnT on VOIP, on at one time, you are all ended..)

I’d just be grateful if Spread Shot worked in more than two dimensions. Pointless skill for wall-mounted ballista, as far as I can tell – it’s only useful in one situation, in which you’ve put a ballista on the ground and you’ve folks in melee range. Great for a lord room, lousy pretty much anywhere else.
It’s an expensive way to waste 5 points.
Sure did work good on at least one guy. Lol

Look, at this point in the game millions of people have ate their first ballista bolt without screaming hax. It would really be appropriate to field 100 level questions in /map first.

Dragonbrand before the transfers is a very weak tier 2 server. These transfers will make it into a tier 2 contender. Whichever server replaces BG ( assuming MERC is leaving) will just get roflstomped in tier 1. My personal predictions…..
I think you might be underestimating the significance of this event. But we shall see in time.
JQ has always stood tall among the servers, from the very beginning of the game. The only reason it was built up to it’s current size was to counter sos, now long gone. The mountain has been climbed, the sights seen. And now, it is time to move on.
We all hate the zergs, the skill lag. The bl’s overstuffed and the blase’ attitude that comes from stale matches always predetermined. I am confident even JQ will find it enjoys the forgotten taste of a hard won victory… Like we used to

Real good fun fighting with TW / TWL and SF on SoR BL tonight!
Still kicking ourselves in the kitten for letting you TW/TWL guys weasel in from north outer on Bay. >_<Thanks for all the good fights, GoF did as best we could with what we had!
Really wish we were fast enough to join or at least could have watched that 10 minute battle for inner bay, seemed like an epic one between SoR and BG. Lot of action on the BL tonight, good times
Yeah we battled it out at Bay for about 30 minutes. We were hoping you guys would tap some of their stuff and they would pull out, but to no avail
Once again, great fights guys!
Tonight was mostly just the 15 of us SF getting a feel for TW play style since it has been so long since we’ve regularly fought them. By the time the meeting finished the orange swords were in inner bay so we didn’t really have time to get a proper 3 way map fight going.
I was watching the north while we were hitting bay. JQ had a 30-40 man hit Dawns, then move to NE Garrison, then come back to Dawns, then move to Spirit. We had a few people in each spot to call out for reinforcements, but it never looked like there was any danger.
I don’t know what you’re talking about. SF never runs more than 15. Our roster is maybe 25 large at best.
We’ve been noticing the SF small groups, and appreciate it very much. Hopefully we don’t zerg you with our 5-10 when you are less than us.
We also never run LESS than 15. Every time you see an SF there are EXACTLY 15 in the area at that very moment!

SoR asian primetime
You do realize that the match is over. That FOO logged two hours ago and that no matter what you tick the match is literally over. I guess we can keep reiterating this fact but if you want to push so hard go for it.
And I find it perplexing that someone would quit playing because of a number. Are we not here for combat? But it does seem to be common, guess Rallians are a bit odd in this.
Or it’s simply the fact those of us who play during these timezone’s are doing other stuff with our guilds and having fun and while WvW is fun for fights sometimes you need days to have a break and today is one of those days. This is especially true considering the new reset time.
Stei is right, SoR does this every week for some reason. On Thursday, you guys push so hard even though the match has already been decided. Why don’t you guys try doing this earlier in the matchup instead? It might actually help you try for first? Just saying…
Not true.
We play the same way for the same goal each and every day. What may seem like pushing to others is more a reflection of other servers NOT showing up as heavily.
Today, and every day, is a good day to die.
