Guild Wars 2

Don’t really understand the problem with that ore. I’m sitting on around 600 now.

Oh right, I did wvw before S1 and not for farming mats!

I have no problems with the queues, I totally expected queues of 3-5 hours to happen on the first weekend.
But Anet how about you get your kittening server working right? If you let 300 people into a borderland, I expect that your servers can take the fights without resulting into that massive lags which even stretch out into pve maps.
back to the topic.
I never had a queue on EU time since October 2012 when our guild joined JQ. So, could you please prioritize people with higher world ranks a bit over people without?
Yeah, that will hurt new players and players that never been to wvw before, but your whole game hurts new players since the karma change, the massive gold increase on some events, prices of T6 mats, fractals.

Wow, so many BG players already sharing their feelings with the world? Maybe you could open up a facebook group – my name proposal would be “All this money for being 3rd”.
I’d prefer fighting BG and SoR every week as I did when BG was the fotm. Yeah, we have a stupid schedule, but most of don’t care if we are 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th, we played even after BG and SoR absorbed some of our NA and OCX guild and as we were the only T1 server without any EU presence.
It’s not our fault when you joined BG for getting #1 easy and now you have to work for it.

Wow, 4,5 hour in S1 and already kitten so much?
I couldnt leave my computer for 4 hours because JQ bl was so full with people and the garrison lord was like the kaaba – and had as many people trying to touch it errr him.

Rumor is going that SoR recruited two additional EU guilds. Don’t know if that’s true, but that would make it 5 EU guilds which are terribly bored when SoR doesn’t play against BG and JQ in a matchup.

They weren’t EU. We got two Russian guilds. One from Madagascar and another from the Cook Islands and another from the American Samoa to cover our lead up to Oceanic.

You should try recruiting some guilds from Saudi-Arabia or Iran to close some gaps!

Cuddlepie.8109:

There’s no doubt that JQ has played the meta very well. They deserve respect for such a consistent effort over a sustained period of time.

This, of course, isn’t consistent with the JQ forum posters who claim underdog status despite the clear evidence that JQ has been dominant since TA dissolved.

You should maybe check your servers history and the time from march 2013 to now and how many guilds and servers BG absorbed and recruited.
While doing that you could check the threads from our matchups and how many of your fellow beastgators tried so hard to troll us as we lost guilds to our competitors or your EU and OCX pvd’ us only stopped by the transfer of IRON and KISS to SoR and overtimes from our SEA and NA guys that logged in very early.

Big thanks to the JQ community. It’s fun working with you and always has been.
Thanks to SoR and BG – at least the classy ones – it was an honor fighting against you and I hope the seasons will be worth playing.
Thanks to the other servers we fought. I really liked seeing some new faces on the field and even outnumbered you mostly didn’t run.

And now to something completely different:

where is Titan? Hope he is well. I really miss his trolling!

Rumor is going that SoR recruited two additional EU guilds. Don’t know if that’s true, but that would make it 5 EU guilds which are terribly bored when SoR doesn’t play against BG and JQ in a matchup.

There is a tv show with a Jesse Ventura?

Sure, such things can backfire very fast. Besides I don’t believe in that kind of strategy, but I fail to find an explanation why SoR would like to have SBI in gold league, when the majority of SBI don’t want to be there.
Maybe someone can enlighten me.

Maybe he got really lucky with liquid wxp. I’m not lucky with that at all, but I never got an exotic in wvw and i’m playing that kitten for over a year (ok, i’m happy if i get a rare once a month from a chest or player)

I wonder what happens when SoR meets SBI and BG (or JQ) in a season matchup and we have a 2v1 from SoR and SBI. Maybe you really don’t need to recruit guilds, when you can use servers as puppets.
Maybe I need a tinfoil hat. Can someone bring Snowden here?

But he is almost right. After warrior thief is still the most versatile and preferable class for wvw. It’s easy to master, it has enough skills to reset or escape a fight and deals enough damage to win the 1v1. It’s still not number 1 in zerg fights but playable.

No badges from chest for the whole day. And I have the feeling I get less badges from players in general – but that’s since they changed the badges to a currency.

celeron.3469:

Complaining that people aren’t putting in overtime to match another server that doesnt have to. Nice

It’s just the same old BG. If BG is winning you can queue all maps for 15-20 hours a day. After one or two weeks of this all of your coverage disappears and you start complaining that SoR or JQ is stacked and how bad you need more guilds.
At the moment maybe 30% of your wvw population shows up.
I’m very sure the next week you will come in hordes back into wvw and win the first week in S1 while all your forum warriors like that titandude show up again to flame.

and big thanks to TC, I really appreciate having you as an opponent, you show up, you fight for every little space on the map, even when you are outnumbered.

Anet already said it’s a bug and that you should not use it.

glguy.4392:

Najten.2418:

My guess would be that ^ that statement means “we will ban ppl that are exploiting it”. :P

I’d guess that if they meant that they’d have said that. This bug is getting a lot of exposure. They’d have to ban a lot of people.

So what? They did in the beginning for karma weapons. And they make money with those bans.

Hope there will be some bans for that. Everyone should know about “bug using”.

Waage.2047:

Yeah it is not like there is a massive dead zone where after we have to fix all the damage done so that JQ can get there kitten kicked during NA.

IF it wasen’t for paper keeps on ourside and tier 3 on yours we could do something, but that is now how it is. If we had any SEA we would tear a hole in you, but right now we have a lot of work to do.

We log in and every thing is broken and we need to rebuild it. We show up, but so those yours and while you only have SG that is of any threat it dose not change that it is hard to take tier 3 keeps full of randoms with 15 RK.

We had this dead zone for month, maybe you remember it when we only ha our sea left and no EU or OCX and mainly people from your server predicted the end off JQ.

We are stil here. So, come out and play

In all seriousness BG, please please recruit more oceanics. This is 500 tick is boring a hell.

Could you lend us a few thousands of gold you are sitting on so we can buy your guilds?

If we are buying so many guilds why is it we still have almost non existant EU Guild Coverage? BG has what 3-4 guilds who are EU exclusively and a few that run during this time zone? JQ has 1 small EU guild and a bunch of pugs. Huge difference yet you guys don’t show up during this timezone at all.

You had EU.

But then you kept on stacking untill even they thought it was ridiculous, and moved of.

Funny. Just enlighten us and tell me where you heard it.

I real like this matchup. 4 weeks ago every match between JQ and BG that didn’t involve SoR was full with people from BG chest thumping about hat 100k lead in a matchup before and “lol you can’t win without SoR helping you”
It seems that backfired.

Julia.8760:

Fuzzion.2504:

Also whats up with the super lag today?

U massively over stacked a time zone, and u running map blobs on every map. THAT is where your lag comes from.

You mean.. we BG’ed our server?
How mean!

magikfox.9658:

I heard oPP are xferring to JQ soon anyway :/

Basketball shouldn’t be called a sport. It’s like baseball or dancing.

You invited us to your Tequatl and teamspeak party yesterday.

Welcome to NA Coin!

And BG please don’t overstack, will you?!

At least you don’t outnumber us 3v1 now and you’ll think twice if you go for our stuff when we do the SoR/BG/JQ match again.

Maybe just stop doing Tequatl on JQ – or Maw, or.. mainly BG tags today.

vinceftw.5086:

Just stop playing thief. It’s OP and makes you look like a noob. No, it doesn’t even look like it, you are one.

The bloodlust buff is the worst idea since orb. Orbs were great (without the exploiting option)

It is possible to capture. BG did it 3 times in the last hour with holding one base. We held 3 bases for 2 minutes, most of us left the middle, BG took 3 bases, lost 2 of them with 1:30 left and the cap went through.

So please, turn it off or get it fixed.

We had a lot of disconnects on JQ bl last night.

Is PLX doing GvG?

Wait.. that’s the total wrong thread. I go to Bret!

Titan.3472:

Hey to the JQ that disrupt the BG karma train intentionnaly yesterday, when we didn’t act like this with you on the last match day. Be ready for a week long daily-based pay back. Good week everyone XD.

I still think AE damage should scale up with every target it hits. If you hit 5 people with your aoe you take 60 damage per person per tick, if you hit 10 you take 120 damage per person per tick and it should scale up. Maybe that would stop people running around in zergs with 60-70 others because a small group of 5 could kill them. But that would bring up new problems so.. but at the moment it’s mainly lagging, pressing a key with nothing ever happens.

You think that because anti-stealth traps are in any way useful against thieves?

I think it would be better if those without bloodlust would get the stomp points. If you stomp one player with 1 bl, get 1 point, with 2 get 2 points, and with 3 get 3 points.
And tripple points for outmanned people stomping bl3 people.

They really should open a GvG forum and of course a GvF and PvF forum.

We could use some dedicated havoc players too! Don’t be afraid to contact our community members and staff.

Join the quarry!

Good luck with some transfers and good fights for all of us!

kylejester.7568:

[TW], why you want to hug me so much? Keep your eyes off me and on the road! (And thanks for the save JQ!)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfCooDHXpPA

So awesome. Thank you, mates for helping him. He didn’t deserve to die – this time!

Goooo Drakkar Lake!

edit: Oh, I’m a bit late or early. No reset yet.

So mean. You guys just do that because you want to know what the new guild name will be. Sooo mean.

What happened to the thread?

Azure.8412:

Errr.. another SEA guild of 40? lol

I checked earlier and didn’t see anyone with that tag and no one here could tell how many they have. So, it’s all speculation, but maybe it’s not that easy anymore to kick us off T1 when it’s true.

The thing about ESOL is funny. Leaving JQ with a ton of people to found RE, leaving DB with people as ESOL, founding PLX on BG with 5 people? Successful guild lead!

Kiff.8157:

1. So you’re saying Noodles was recruited by BG. Great.
2. I did not ‘talk for’ Waha and yes he and his members did say that. Learn chinese and I will show you.
3. And please try get more solid points. Mentioning ESOL and TKG who came before league is announced to defend your server for stacking strongest timezone AFTER the league is announced, not impressive, no.

And you are still upset because we could equal our number with those of BG on the field?
It’s still
EU > SoR > BG=JQ
OCX>BG > SoR > JQ
NA > SoR > JQ=BG (not sure about that)
SEA > JQ > BG > SoR

So, if looking at the match statistics helps. Your server almost never falls below 200 ppt (sometimes in late EU for about an hour) but often goes up to 490 or higher, while JQ wents down to 100ppt in two timezones.
Question:
- why shouldn’t we get some OCX and EU and a guild (of maybe 40) in SEA?

Right, so MERC has enough people who can play until 5-7am and our SEA hasn’t. That’s fortunate for you, but thanks for supporting my statement.
And I wonder how good informed you about ATM.

Kiff.8157:

I literally LOL at this guy.
1. ESOL came before the league is announced and we did not recruit them.
2. TKG (shhh….waha and atm said their existence did not really help JQ much)
3. Omen – 10 or 15 man guild? it is nothing compared to WVW that JQ recruited – 40 man guild and i mean active wvw members.
4. I strongly suggest BG and SOR start to stack their strongest timezone as well cuz….you wanna play this way then we are gonna play the same way so let it be!!!

So, if you don’t recruit them.. it’s like you don’t have them on the map?
And who is “we”? Maybe you did not recruit them but someone else did?

And you are talking for Waha now or where do you get quotes like that?

Kiff.8157:

What did JQ do? cried and cried and eventually they stack their strongest timezone. IF ATM and GE could do the same like overtime and JQ with the new GD guild, you guys would definitely triumph over the adversity. Yet sadly that would never occur because the funny and weird mindset Waha has since he started savoring the thrill of victory.

Do me a favour and get a globe to look on timezones. ATM is, as far as I know mainly in UTC+8 or UTC+9 which leads to:
EU prime time: 20:00/08:00pm (GMT+1) is UTC+1
EU prime time for ATM: 02:00-03:00(am)
EU prime time for NA guilds: 14:00/02:00pm – 17:00/05:00pm

I’m not sure how many people you know who can stay up that long with a work day starting at 06:00am.

So, if our SEA recruits people from the UTC+5-UTC+7 region – where BG and SoR seems to have some, I enjoy that.

Seigfried.5938:

Why don’t you name a few guilds BG has recruited?
And we heard it straight from the horse’s mouth, JQ makes up for lack of skill with numbers.

TKG (they went back to JQ) and Omen
ESOL (now PLX) which are not only NA timezone
and I would bet 5€ you are still on the search for guilds.

I don’t see your problem if we get transfers, because many of BG said we could use some. If we can’t compete with SoR or BG in some timezones, we will have no chance of winning a match. At the moment our ppt is really low and our SEA has to work hard vs. BG and SoR so why exactly shouldn’t they recruit?
We have two strong timezones SEA and NA, with ATM and GE we normally have a 240+ ppt, with our NA we are between 200 and 250, but we lose much of that stuff every time OCX starts (thanks to our new/old OCX its better now) and we can’t even hold our bl on early or late EU when BG and especially SoR come out with huge map zergs due their EU and early NA.
So why shouldn’t we take new guilds while you are still recruiting?
I remember many of your BG dudes wanting us to go into T2 because we are too bad for T1.
