Automated Tournaments
it has been already discussed, QPs should have been an entry point into them, but looks like they have changed their plan… we must hope they did it for better

In beta you could have those slots. But then they shoved all the stats into one item. (your amulet)
amulet and jewel and runes :P

looks like some people read only half the information and then they QQ
they already said they move rating to the top tier of their priority list, custom arenas dropped lower obviously
we dont have many features which are important, not only custom arenas
got 1v1 with ranger in WvW today… he goes underwater when he was losing… then got downed… then his pet ressurected him against all my dps even when i used sink on his pet
totally OP
i agree with OP, WOW’s arena system and its reward system were best part of its pvp
if we could combine it with only cosmetic rewards and combat system from GW2
add game modes from both, like arena deathmatch, conquest, CTF etc…
and we would get the best pvp game imo
i dont think we need GvG, but some sort of GvG style map for standard 5v5 rotation could be nice and i dont mean like Foefire map i mean really focused on defending/killing Lord
aswell as CTF or TDM, sweet memories are from WoW… why we cant get WoW pvp system with GW2 same-items-for-all and playstyle? i really like GW2, but spvp overall is just a big fail

drazzar: all rewards are based on rank, not on skill or anything… so rank really means something ofc its cosmetic, but its the only reward/progress in spvp
they really need to do something with it… some skill based rewards, not farm based…
8v8 mini WvW? no thanks… maybe as a normal map for 5v5
i hope its invisible due to testing, not as final state… because ladder and rewards should be focused on rating too and if it wont be visible, it wouldnt be possible
sounds interesting… just add “falling” state the same way as stealth and when someone gain this state, his first skill would change for something else, just like with thiefs stealth
many people here dont even know what is the purpose of hotjoins and try to make it a serious mode with matchmaking… its a bit funny
if you dont know it, they said its a test they want people to get used to the map and show actual meta game on that map this will probably stop when patch will go live, at least i hope so…
i just hope they will add new reward system soon too, so it will be dependant on rating and not on glory farming like a crazy kitten…
anyway, this patch looks good and we are finally moving forward
nothing new that all eles are going some kind of Auramancer build or heavy water/arcane nothing else is worth it… some eles traits really need rework
i was playing 0/25/0/15/30 for a long time but it still thing its some kind of heavy water/arcane build… now i switched to 0/15/0/25/30

i dont agree with removing of downed state… but i do agree with reworking of rally, its annoying as hell when in 5v5 you down 3 guys, they down you 2 mates, its 3v2 with a bit of help from downed ppl now, then some thief do invis-quickness-stomp in 2sec and whoah its 5v3… thats not fair…
i would add limit only 1 rally for 1 stomp or make rally working only when last player around die… or something like that just change it please!
very bad idea, people are choosing profession before match, not in match, you cant ban any profession what if someone have only 1 profession on their account and you would ban it? hm? so bad…
they need to balance them, so none is interested if they are facing more thiefs or mesmers or not…
obviously yes, its the same as Necros blind well, dont know exact name
i think there are only weak traits and weak skills every profession have at least 1 good build, but most other traits and skills are often almost useless… they need to adjust them
Hi, did you think about something similiar to Opening of Anh’Qiraj in WoW in your Living Story?
If you dont know what i mean, it was kind of realmwise quest, where all ppl on realm needed to do something to achieve next step in story, e.g. gather a lot of something, craft a lot of something etc and bring it to NPCs for a small bonus (something like LA repairs)… when realm collected everything what was needed, story evolved and new dungeon was open on that realm
or another option, go play free tournaments but there are some pros and cons, your choice
If a ladder is the deciding factor of whether or not you’ll be playing sPvP, you are wasting your time.
It’s not the deciding factor, but why do you say that?
because ladder isnt in? maybe?
you need to wait for upcomming patches, but not Jan one, maybe in Feb
I can’t blame anyone in here for the pessimistic attitude towards this “update”. My biggest concern is getting past the things he listed so some new content can actually be enjoyed, you know like maybe a DIFFERENT GAME MODE?
you know they cant do everything at once right? and if they are working on these few features, they cant make new modes at the same time… just be patient and wait until one thing is done, then ask another one
yup, anet thinks this is a fps for some reason. casual people want set single map matches that penalize quitters and reward winning. instead we got hotjoin zergfest where everyone runs glass cannon circle zeros cap points and quits when the water map comes up.
go play tournaments… hot join is what it is supposed to be
Compared to WoW GW2 feels like its still in beta.
it is ofc… WoW is 2004, GW2 is 2012… do you see the difference? if you dont count graphics etc, they had much more time to implement all those features and fix bugs and your money every month ofc
