Guild Wars 2

Weylin.6478:

sPvP has balanced gear because its "S"PvP… Structured, intended to be balanced.

Kinda funny that I like GW2 for all the reasons you think it’s boring.
If I wanted open world PvP, I’d go back to WoW and get repeatedly killed by some kitten 40 levels above me that’s intent on being as irritating as possible.

Though, I admit it was satisfying when we put out a world-wide call for help, and they arrived 5 minutes later on cavalry and ran those horde kittens out of darkwood, that was great.

+1. If you want to get ganked in a open world map, go roam as upscaled in WvW.

Also i LOVE there is no such thing as kill steal in this game. Makes it a more friendly MMO then others where there is kill steal around.

Edit: to answer the topics title, to create a friendly atmosphere/player base and anet succeeds on that matter.

Maybe ANet should have an offer to us PvE players in full servers to move to another, lower population server for free and with a free makeover kit or free mini or something like that.

That doesnt solve the problem. It will only move the same problem elsewhere and wth they should reward pve players cause of this? PvE isnt server restricted like WvW.

/shrug

Since they aren’t going to scrap the server idea anytime soon, getting PvE players off a full server onto a non full server is one viable and possible option. The other option is WvW players complaining on the forum about full servers and not getting what they want, slots opening up on full servers so they can get in.

It doesn’t matter to me what server I’m on, but I’m not going to pay to transfer to a non full server and I don’t care enough about WvW problems to volunteer even if the option to transfer for free did come up. But I might transfer for free if a small consideration was added.

So transfers free with freebies on top of it to lower populated worlds > All move there = same situation, different server.

Orochimaru.4730:

This is what a kittening hate!

Anet staff do things we are not allowed!

This is a matchup thread, they were banned LONG ago! Why has a staff member gone and started a matchup thread?!

To trigger us to do the same and ending up with infractions as were not allowed to do mu threads.

Never expected a troll from you Michael.

There are no hacks/exploits/glitches in this game, They are called special unintended features which will never get fixed. Just look at mid air immob issue.

King Noob IV.3560:

after i found out i need to level another discipline to 500 for my ascended pistol and realized i will forever be below people with ascended gear so i gave up

Do like me, get exotics and gank those with ascended gears/legendaries. Not so hard tbf.

Sandpit.3467:

While we are in the process of not crippling players, can we have a right-click “consume all” option for stacks?

Funny “destroy all” works if you want to get rid of a whole stack in once…

Dueling? YES PLEASE. but make a checkbox in game options to auto decline duel invites, for those people who are worried about a toxic behaviour coming out of this, perhaps make certain areas in the game to duel places.

Inspecting? I have no opinion on it as people can run whatever build they please.

Cause this is a MMO and need stuff to keep people busy. Thats why we cant have account bound map completion.

Ooh sounds like a good place to go whenever a new world peace event in wvw occurs. kill ravens and fuel the rage! Kinda miss killing random champions in queensdale to get raged at.

Anet has a deal with mouse factories, each time one of our mouse dies they get 10% cut.

I do not have another idea then this with a game like this in 2015 with THAT much clicking around. sup siege/open bags/consume luck ( ye i know u can craft exos but still)/buy stuff in bulks from vendor etc.

Clicketyclick!

Hi everybody,

p.s.
Also, noticed that there’s going to be PvE style event that occurs every 3 hours. Winner gets a weapon that will attack your stronghold to help breach gates. Glad they didn’t say it would give a Tequatl style Chest. Imagine all the PvE players coming in every 3 hours just for this.

omg that will destroy wvw for good. a stupid chest a stupid pve mob for pve players to do something npc like which is pve. this is terrible and a stupid idea sorry anet but we dont want your pve karma trains in wvw. we wanna fight server vs server not server vs stupid ai npc pve mobs we dont want it we dont need it it has to go! we got stupid eotm for your pve crowd we dont want pve scrubs in wvw. this will push the entire wvw community away. we dont need npcs we dont want pve in wvw, we told u this for years! how long is anet going to ignore the fact that a true wvw player doesnt need shrines nor npc traps nore pve mobs!

Seems like they do listen to us.

Anet: what would you guys like to see?
Players: Less pve!
Anet: ok more pve, coming!

That “small strike team” is legit crap. Ive had countless scenarios where even if we out number the enemy they just suicide themselves to kill a yak and we cant really do anything but watch. Until they add the dolyak escort buff I like these changes.

So because players that you outnumber outplayed you the game should be dumbed down and made easier for the server with more numbers and better coverage….

This kid thinks you legit get outplayed if they can kill squishy yak from you. You have jokes.

This kid doesn’t know how to use superior numbers and cc to stop someone from killing a yak.
Learn that there are more buttons on your skill bar than the auto attack…

Some people arent aware of the Slap Da Yakslapper title.

Siege craft station or rework the mystic toilet so the items you put in wont vanish each time you click the craft button so you can just spam that instead of clickclickclickclickclickclickclickclick yeeey 1 whole superior ac!

Imagine this bug in pve or spvp, it would have been fixed already but for WvW?

Dawdler.8521:

Spurnshadow.3678:

That whole scenario, and many like it will probably go away.

Thats because they never existed. People are massively overhyping current dollys. Escorted by 20 players, lol… Probably 99% of all T3 upgrades exist because of nightcapping and are lost in primetime. Your “scenario” would still be the same with passive upgrades.

Ever played vs german servers on reset nights on your borderlands? They do escort dolyaks with 25+ if its needed.

BrickFurious.7169:

Johje Holan.4607:

Vercinorix.3021:

@ OP: Please read more carefully and think before you post. Upgrade time does depend on yaks making it in.

I believe the OP was making the point that the tower/keep will upgrade regardless of if yaks make it in or not.

That’s why I think we gotta be careful in wording exactly what we’re complaining about. Automatic upgrades are great, no more spending gold or worrying about supply trolls. Automatic upgrades that continue to progress even when yaks don’t make it into an objective are a problem.

Aka, automatic upgrades aren’t a terrible idea, it’s yak-less upgrades that are a terrible idea.

if yaks dont play a role into upgrading anymore, what tools do we get to interupt the upgrade progress?

Remove stuff seems to be their way to improve the game.

Gobble D Goop.4081:

i didnt see any enemy guards on GOM BL last night. Shame too, i was hoping to boost my objective defense title

Wish i didnt see them spawn anymore, perma contest everythhing gets really tiresome quickly.

That means you might have to play a real class now instead of stealthspam harry all the way? Good thing.

Now the whole server disconnects and every upgraded thing went back to wood. Can’t enter anything and everyone became a true friendemies!

rhapsody.3615:

Do you think they’ll roll back the scores? Came across a gate at 50% from an enemy guard at the tower we owned, and saw enemy server taking advantage of bugged npc’s doing work on the gate for them. No, it wasn’t Siegerazer

Just killed guards on enemy controlled tower. Soon as they died friendly guards spawned and went to PVD lol. I almost start to think they should have done this as april fools joke.

Condi ranger sword/torch axe/dagger. Enough poisons and bleeds to make them melt aswell tons of evasions to avoid the hammer and gs swings.

Dawdler.8521:

Its not just keeps. WvW is all messed up, haha. PPT isnt the same for everyone, enemy guards spawn in friendly towers (and contest them, lol), supply quantity bugs and I experienced 2 complete border crashes (as in all disconnected) within an hour… Oh and I forgot that all three servers could talk on map chat :p

Yea I made this topic the moment I saw a keep bugged but realised there are way more bugs in it, so edited the title.

Vavume.8065:

You think that’s bad? in our match up AG v AM v DL everyone in EB is friendly, 180 people on tag…

Haha should go cap their corners then. Anyway PPT seems to randomize it self too.

Yup, made a topic regarding this in the WvW forum, but see you already made one here.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/wuv/New-Keep-Bug/first#post5080093

( named it keep bug as i didnt realise towers/camps were affected too)

Yup, wp in Hills just completed and sup count went up with 150 to 0/650. All ohter upgraded objectives show supp count as if theyre wooden.

Edit: also when you look at ohter maps through world maps you will see objectives having the wrong colour too. Like you own sm looking from a borderland which isnt the case.

Things like these have been discussed to death. It is like this since launch so do not expect any change. Maybe HoT will have some stuff in it but till then, nothing.

This game rewards you with exp even when you just run around farting.

On the positive side of this, siege used to have a 15minute timer. Simply ask in ts/mapchat to refresh siege timer and perhaps people might do it.

Do we have a specialist yet?

They have been selected, emails were sent out yesterday.

How do you know?

I applied, and recieved this email. http://i.imgur.com/OV0rcV7.png

I’m sad I did not get the title, but I am sure who ever they selected is up for the task.

Alt account? Cos even you only have a total of 11 posts in 5 months. The only difference is that at least you posted in the WvW forums section

Again I have 4 pages worth of posts in 3 months, again mostly in WvW, and again I do not meet the requirements to apply.

The fact that Gaile said she would keep your application on record yet again signals bad tidings for us, the WvW community. We need someone who is active both in game and in forums!

I think instead of the mods telling us what is good for us they should hold an election, people who want to be FS can apply and then let the players decide who they want.

Then what, a huge revolution that will change everything? Dream on… No i am not negative but realistic.

Not sure if you have been around with the introduction of these ruins and the stats increase but it used to be 50/100/150. That was way to much and lots of forum topics complaining about it resulting in Anet reducing it to what it is now. I for one am happy they did that cause it would only favor the steamrolling server in a matchup.

It’s the only place you’re gonna find bad players unless you transfer to a low tier server.

So you assume people on low tier are generally bad, because they play on a low tier?

Most players in low tier servers are casual and do not play in an environment that requires a great amount of skill so there is no incentive or necessity to improve. This is a well known fact.

If it is a well known fact, why do some people have another opinion on it then you have? Can you show some evidence on this well known fact? If not, it is still your assumption. And like Jimhunter said, fighting higher tiers increase the chance of nike classes and people with wp mastery 5/5. Good and bad players are everywhere no matter which tier you will hit so stop saying people on low tier are generally bad.

More people = more fights yes, but that does not mean they are generally better just because they can field more people at any given time. For example last couple of months i had some new players getting in our roam guild transfering from Fissure of Woe/Vabbi. And i can tell you, they are way better roamers then you can think off.

So it is still an assumption people on lower tier are generally bad vs higher tiers.

Dawnbreaker, do you realize you are playing a game with tons of magical and fantasy stuff? Using real life logic does not make sense compared to this nope. Teq can fly cause he is part of a fantasy game. Or can you run nonstop in real life as your toon can? Can you take waypoints or ress someone in real life?

Loosmaster.8263:

They have said many times they won’t support GvG. They don’t do much for WvW. Get over it already…

GvG threads are the Mount threads of wvw subforum. And yea like Vavume said, more ultimate farminators will pop up.

RedBaron.6058:

A noob ranger yes…

Caedmon.6798:

RedBaron.6058:

Ranger is easy mode. Is good to relax in WvW.

Untill you face someone that knows how to counter you easily.

Not happening when you have more mobility than the ranger does.

Since when is a ranger a noob if he lacks mobility? I dont run a speedy gonzales build myself but ill stay to fight kill or die. Nabs scared of dying will run off.

Looks like its impossible to convince OP about magic stuff in a fantasy game.

npc’s will give you 1 stack. Players will give 5.

phokus.8934:

OP seems like a blast to talk about movies as well.

“The DeLorean cannot time travel because it’s made of low grade aluminum and not high conductive unobtanium which is used to time travel.”

Suspend belief for a FANTASY game where people shoot fireballs out of staves, people teleporting, and growing magical wings.

Keyword, magical.

You must have never watched CinemaSins.

Well yeah let’s hear your explanation on how a fireball comes out of a staff?

Its in his last paragraph….MAGIC. Like many others have already stated, dont apply RL logic to a fantasy game. Can you blink irl?

Shadow.3475:

They can run in a 100player blob but they will get a penalty so they take 10% more damage (or make 10% less damage), Prefer take then a smaller Group off like 15players that are well organized can kill off stragglers and so.

Dawdler.8521:

Shadow.3475:

not as now go 100player blob water gate and get in, instead they will split up and 30player attack SW gate 30player attack SE gate, 20player at NE and NW gate to stop reinforcement.

The problem with that way of thinking is that you start forcing people to play the way you think they are meant to play. That is bad practice and will only make players angry.

Remember what happened when Anet thought GvG was ruining their gameplay mode, lol.

Penalties, for playing with my friends? That is atrocious. Get more friends or go away, but do not try to implement rules that penalize the rest of us for doing so. Why should I be penalized for having a large guild and large friends list, and trying to play with those friends? That is an absurd concept.

If you have 100friends that manage to get in to WvW map congratulation.

As it is now ever server run with Map blob because you have no penalty’s only benefits with it.

Not sure where you get the idea that every server runs mapblobs 24/7….. T1?

Dawnbreaker.6215:

Talonblaze.3175:

Applying real earth logic to an undead flying creature in a fantasy setting of a different universe.

Strong arguments there.

But there’s gravity in game just like in real life… and air and the Sun and all these things you know. So yeah why is gravity not working on Tequatl? Did he buy something from Trading Post that I didn’t?

If i fall down somewhere with my ranger, my bird pet that got wings and stuff takes fall damage too. Logic? No, Magic? Yes.

Well if this would harm the economy, make the runes and sigils account bound after salvage, heck even only those out without materials would be nice. It is not like theyre easier to get then pve gears is it?

If you throw a blueprint down it takes 2 min to despawn. If you pour supps in and build it half, it will take 10min before it despawns

Why they run eotm? easy loot easy exp easy karma. If they wanted to play the real wvw they would have done it already. Remove EOTM and they will go back to pve instead.

One Dev: WVW WUTS THAT
Other devs shrug, wuts that

If it gets boring to win every week on SFR i suggest to transfer down ;p
