Yeah, keeps are a buggy mess. We showed A-Net how to glitch into both keeps, but went live anyway.
Snowfall runes FTW.

The map got fixed, I’m assuming you already had it boycotted by then.
What a shame.
they should just remove all forms of “servers” pick up eotm and run with that for everyone. Merge servers into 3 alliances, and just populate the maps like eotm.
Spoken like an EOTM Hero.
Terrible idea.
Gah… Wall of Text… hurts eyes…
None of this is new and has been addressed in many posts before.
Dear God, I hope so.
Who are you, or any of you, that can decide what a person or a guild wants to do?
Bandwagons happen because some people, albeit more casual people, just want to log in on their own time and see some action.
Your ideals of how everyone should play are simply that, yours.
In an ideal world, in a relatively “sandbox” situation like WvW the way around this is to grab a tier with like-minded individuals and set some ground rules. Been there and done that with the T3 “Fights Tier” and we were bandwagoned anyway. Folks are always going to go to the party, it is just a reality and, frankly, not your place to say different.
I don’t really understand why you can’t make your tag whatever color you want. The color scheme is a server decision and should not be predetermined. I’ve been on a server where the color dictates the role of the commander but 4 is simply not enough to encompass all the roles that are available.
Build templates are a great idea, the Faction stuff is terrible. Most of the rest of the ideas here are tepid at best.
Hopefully never…
You know you could at least make an effort to provide something ontopic that adds something of value to the conversation. Anet needs a pit they can dump all these wasteful postings. I mean you took a min to read the thread, take a minute to respond next time. I know the crybaby meta is strong, but its time to man up.
The empty DBL maps spoke quite well for themselves…
Simply because the “Old Guard” refused to learn it, the same guys that complained endlessly about the old Alpine Map.
I want the DBL back but in a rotation so you “comfort zone” guys still have that safe little place.
Seriously, a mix up is good for the game, the re-vamped DBL is not only playable but allows for the same open field fights that everyone loves. Embrace a bit of change.
I’m actually a big fan of SoS when they aren’t 2v1 or aj. You guys have heart and you fight. That is all anyone can ask from an enemy in this game. It is unfortunate that you are placed against Mag because Mag is to fluffy for T3 but not yet really ready for T2 so the servers we get paired with get hammered. It’s nothing against your skill or competence, Mag just simply has more numbers during the time zones that matter. Not taking anything away from you or SBI, both of you have shown up and given us Hell:)
As for your particular situation I will give you the same advice I give people wanting to transfer to Mag. Just wait until the new linkings happen and the dust settles. No point in wasting gold/gems/$ in an unknown.
yawn
This again.
Lets have a look at his Youtube channel and see how he tried so desperately to draw views, now he gets emo.
At best he was a “Never-was” now he is a “Has-been”.
He has some valid arguments but when tied with an “Ima quit” crap it all goes down the toilet IMHO.
Shield generators are OP. Really bad idea and implementation.
This is a fantastic idea. Just give enough time for guilds to get their ducks in a row, then do it.
OMFG
Just Stahp.
People are going to play they want regardless of your idea of how they should.
There will always be blobs and K-trains because there are a ton of player who could give two flying monkey butts about builds/comps/consumables. They just want to run for a few hours after work or on their down time. They are the Militia on our servers, the guys and girls that keep the fire burning. Accept it and move on, stop trying to corral them into your ideas.
They outnumber you and me and every other person that plays “For da fites”.

……
so “Points per Finisher”?
Why? Other than to highlight the fact you run a class that can “Stealth Stomp”
QFT
Um Legendary weapons require grind.
It is known.
Now please move on.
This is pure gold.
The wvw team is finally focusing on wvw and you are mad because they are asking the opinions of the players because in your mind, the only people that vote are…. I don’t even know.
Fairly sure there is some kind of metric they have in place for whom they send the polls to, as in having played X number of hours WvW per week etc.
/popcorn
(yes I’ll take the next infraction, but really????)
So…
EOTM?
Hmm, it’s already here, go play it.
Lol
Famine nailed it.
Now this is a good topic!
Build templates would be amazing. Lets start work on this Arena Net!
Will buy 800 gems to get templates.
/facepalm.
There are no decent drivers on Engi above a K-Train that fights doors all day. If you are PvD-ing then go ahead and play a bear/bow ranger.
Seriously guys, stop giving bad advice to a new commander because you have some cheese build that works for you. He is new and asking for help and you are setting him up for failure.
OK OP I’ve read your post a couple of times but I’m really not sure what you are asking and looking at the responses nobody else understands either.
A WvW guild is whatever they want to be. Expectations are moot as nobody gets to be the judge. People are going to play the way they want and that is the beauty of this game mode, trying to sort them into some quantifiable box is useless.
Dark Jean, I am trying to understand what you are saying, the problem is every time you post reality just goes south, and not good BBQ south, just bad south.
I get it, you hate being paired with Maguuma, most servers would however guilds like TREX are coming around and there is a synergy forming. Mag is toxic AF, I get that, but the majority of us aren’t. Blaming a system A-Net put in place to help a dwindling population because you are unhappy with what cards you were dealt is not good. Please remember we are still in BETA with this, so you and DR may very well be paired with a much more agreeable server.
I (CCCP) and my guild happen to like those members of kYrO that run with us. I think it has been a good experience. Maguuma is sorely tagged as a Troll Server by a few but most of us are pretty chill.
If you are going to pin up and command it has to be either Guardian or Revenant. You need the sustain to be able to live past bombs, statics, pin-snipes, etc etc etc
There have been a few commanders who can drive on silly classes and they have done well, but if you are new to the game or commanding, I highly suggest you stick with what works.
/popcorn.
You really had to make a post over this?
I’m intrigued.
Boonshare is broken AF.
The current “hammer train” meta is the worst it’s ever been.
To the Devs, variety is nice! Lets try some of that!
Hokay…
Map chat can be toxic and terrible. I am from Maguuma, I know this better than anyone. Hateful and awful things are spouted as a matter of course.
Now, does it bother me?
Not in the slightest.
Why?
Because I am an adult and I know when and who to block.
Kids will always be kids and they will test whatever boundaries are placed in front of them, if you cannot handle the fact you are playing with a vast multitude of different players with different ways to play and different ways of dealing with whatever they are doing, then nobody can help you.
Block and move on with your life.
The RP is real!
Meet me at Goldshire Inn for some more….
/popcorn.
There are real issues at stake but this one is funny.
This is a terrible idea. One of the appeals of WvW is the exact chaotic and unbalanced nature of it. You already have a game mode that hands you all the stats without any effort its called SPvP, go play that.
Also watching a Phat Seals video and presenting his argument as your own is, well, just sad.
At some point servers have to be merged in some form or another or your 12 Honorable Servers will become 12 Dead Servers. Clinging to a bad idea for nostalgia does not make it a good idea.
This was good, entertaining and easy to understand.
The queues are cancer atm and everyone knows it, however I feel things will calm down within a few weeks. We all just have to bear with it for the moment imo.
As a Maguuman, I for one welcome our new DR overlords.
OK… good feedback however,
There is a lot more coming down the pipe, this has been confirmed numerous times. What was released in the patch was what they had. I would say save your kittening for another month or so.
Fun Fact… There are three exits out of every spawn!!!
If you are getting “Spawn Camped” it’s because you want to be.
Well… “Roamers”, outside of scouting and flipping camps, are fundamentally useless. They Prey on unskilled players running back to a tag and complain when they get pummeled for it. The whole “Roamer” subculture is so caught up in itself and wants to be known as “Unsung Heroes” for basically being gankers.
IMO if you want to Roam, go ahead, you can be useful with callouts, but stop your whining when you get ganked or an army runs over you.
(edited by Trajan.4953)
Hate to say it but “Roaming” is a CHOICE. It has always been high risk, little reward. If you want small fights go to SPVP, stop demanding recognition for a game mode that is fundamentally useless to WvW outside of scouting, Yak killing and the occasional camp flip that is more efficiently done by a havoc squad.
This “Lone Wolf” in WvW is useful from time to time, but hardly important.
Sounds like First World Problems really. That “f” key getting stickey?
Yes we need Megaserver for wvw!!!
Not really, just stop:)
Alliances!
Just like WoW’s Battlegrounds! Meaningless time gated events like DS.
Jk, I am sure they are smarter than that, megaserver wvw would kill the game mode completely imo.
#MagT2Push2016
It’s a-coming
Pft Anet employees only run with streamers and T1 blob guilds. This is well known and why we are in the situation we are in. They simply don’t even understand their own game.
Tactivators can make waypoints anywhere for the massive cost that guilds absorbed to get most of the stuff THEY ALREADY HAD BEFORE HOT.
yes, I am bitter.
Ermagerd…
This was the same on the alpines. Please find something relevant to complain about.
Dunno why you ever had to pay for a tag in the first place. Always seemed like an arbitrary pay wall to play the game that advertised “Play how you want”.
well… I do have several extra cans of Spray On Hair if you want them?
ok, just my opinion (by saying that you can’t get mad at me or you will cross the PC line and burn in Hell).
Megaservers will kill WvW once and for all for a few simple reasons, having said that, they are probably the smartest move for the money hungry kittenlords that control Anet.
On the surface a Megaserver will be a band aid on a gaping wound by making the game type seem vibrant and active by combining what little players are left into EOTM meaningless match-ups. So they, essentially, become WoW battlegrounds. Just a time filler or a guild-building exercise.
Why it would kill WvW as I see it… (see I said that and you can’t get mad at me without seeming like an kitten) is without a Server to fight for most of the guilds will just go away. One can never underestimate what server pride has lent to this game mode. It was so strong and heavy that even A-Net couldn’t handle it and got rid of the Server Match-up forum. The heat was too hot for the likes of Mikey O-Whatshisname and that charming Colin guy (I miss him). A Server is a focal point and a Rally point for so many of us that do WvW.
I am Maguuman (don’t hate) and one of the only reasons I keep logging on and fighting the good fight day after day is because I love my server, warts and all. If I wake up tomorrow and all I am doing is somehow deciding if I want red, blue or green for a small amount of time, well.. it just won’t be the same. I honestly don’t think I’d play near as much if I didn’t have something to fight for.
My 2 cents.
