Guild Wars 2

imma cripple u man. cripple u good

yeah how do u know im using a macro ??

Maybe the casters should have access to the coach and the team’s microphones chatter to pick up on these flashes of brilliant strategy. I would think the players know their strategy better than the shout casters know at this time.
In addition it takes time for the casters to improve. GW two isn’t exactly a game with a huge player base and I think some of these casters are only recently jumping in because of the improved fanfare as of late.

you want the truth?…

my computer can handle this

im ready

i used a ps3 controller with side-side tilt motion for strafing it was pretty cool
(motionjoy + xpadder)

wondering if anyone else experiemented with this in pvp

i think the motion gyro was key otherwise having to use the right thumbstick to aim would be really annoying

would be so nice3 to have this

Reading this thread has been an epic experience

no escape from Tpvp

open your game browser
look up to the empty servers and see

im just a hotjoin hero, i need no strategy

or is this just fantasy MMO

yeah where are all the

my brain hurts reading this thread

wish the matches weren’t landslides. gotta be a way to make things more tense throughout

LEAVE THE DEVS ALO…oh

-_-

carry on

dude just show us ur build its not like some secret super rocket science theory its just a little gw2 build traits not even that complex ppl act like their build is so top secret good but i think you need to ease up on a brother and just let your build loose like its meant to be

blu is still a bit green

if this game continues to grow and blu gets better and better at casting and this game still has his interest, i can only imagine what he can do.

so anet:

Ask not what blu can do for u, but what u can do for blu.

yyeeeeaa

quoth the raven, “OP moar!!”

we need a jerry lawler and Jim Ross of GW2!!! go watch those guys cast pro wrestling for ur inspiration

someone needs to go to anet office and tell them

warriors arent beasts

u forgot the no.1 rule:

http://qkme.me/3u6k7r

yeah did they forget to buff the passive on healing sig??? all other sigs got passive buffs

wait i didnt kno there was third john and from the 2nd vid he is apparently the LEAD pvp designer?

Wow how many Johns do they have? It’s like the entire company is made up of people named John and jon.

Although I have to admit I’ve always enjoyed John sharps presentation style there’s something very soft about his voice is also strong confident that it’s just the right tone.

That’s pretty weird considering arena net is an American company in the game is more heavily advertised in America. Also studies show that Americans are more lazy and tend to do sedentary activities like sitting in front of their computers playing video games so it really surprises me that there are more Europeans playing. Or maybe that is just right for S PVP because Americans tend to lose patience when strategy is involved and so most Americans who have attention disorders have left the S PVP already.

What about for each iteration of these tournaments, we just set a rule for a type of race? Like this time it could be only Norn, the next time it could be only human and silvari, and then after that it could be only Asura?

You are good example of this would be the healing Signet for the warrior. If it is posted a little bit each batch until they eventually reached a good place for balance then wouldn’t that be a great thing? If it’s obvious that a skill is underpowered and underused, then how about you just buff it ever so slightly on the safe side each batch. They’ll be better than doing nothing and eventually will be able to reach a balance level. Right now there is such a lack of build diversity that I hate that I’m forced to play a certain style.

ill try contacting him but I’m also posting this on the forums just to get him and the other guy who did the dueling videos some exposure and some inspiration for other shout casters who are about to start show casting customer arena’s.

Guild wars two is actually pretty fun game to watch when shout casters correctly and I could shot Castor makes a huge difference. but why they always from Europe for some reason?

This is hope that these guys arent too emotionally scarred from the disappointments of the lack of PVP support initially and forgive arena net while giving them a second chance this time. A lot of these guys had a lot of passion I could tell for the game and it’s a shame that the game did not meet our expectations.

I hope the devs see these videos and gives them some inspiration and drive as well to work harder on PVP. Show them to your PVE boss!

Does anyone know what happened to this guy?

He was a really good shot Castor and I watch every single one of his casts because I really enjoyed his voice and his presentation style. I know he hasn’t made a video in a couple months because GW two PVP never really took off and I think you’re smart to see that rather than blindly follow the slow development. But maybe right now would be a good time for him to make it come back?

Also there was another shot Castor who is doing a special segment called “GW two duels” in a featured the best of two out of three duels it was really fun to watch but there was only three videos or so that he did. Someone should start doing this as well now with customer arena is up.

Okay I found the link to the duels videos

I’ve been saying this from day one. But I guess someone at arena net really likes the clutter. There really is no need for the rock dog that pet just contributes to more clutter on the screen.

Actually I recall in World of Warcraft battlegrounds there was plenty of chatter although half of it was people complaining that their side was losing. Nonetheless it was really fun to read all the chat with or pertain to strategy or was just people having fun with each other. I don’t really see this in GW two and a makes all the players look like zombie minded glory farmers playing in their dark basements.

Maybe it’s something that their cartoonish graphics of World of Warcraft and its overall silliness that promotes this type of Jolly chatter. I also notice that it happened more on alliance that on the horde side.

Yeah the reason I don’t Dodge joins is really just for some random fun and or deftly be more fun if people would communicate more. I don’t even care if it’s not strategy talk but just people bashing each other and Internet humor.

i saw it in france last year when i was on vacation. it was like $150 tho one of those expensive european designer stores. not sure if worth it imho

im about to blow my kids college savings on custom arenas

can we ban classes like no mes and no thief in custom arenas? i’d rent one if we could

be able to join a hotjoin or tourney from ANYwhere. this means more ppl playing pvp cuz they can do pve stuff while waiting for queues. they also dont have the hassle of warping to mists, then trying to get back to their PVE place

might end up with empty mists tho

not anymore i dont. not coming back until ranked solo queues

you have yet to see my trueskill

wut was the gameplay like?

Jeskelech.4152:

Yes match making is really really good, the example from the OP doesn’t show nearly how good it is, so I will contribute with a screenshot of my own.

lmao in the screenshot where the guy on the loser team says “good game”

help us evan, ur our only hope

if I’m standing in front of the Mesmer and he casts blurred frenzy and then I run through him until I’m behind him he will automatically turn around and face me continuing to cast blurred frenzy. He doesn’t have to do any of the turning himself.

With similar channeled melee abilities of other classes , you can’t even turn your character during the channel, let alone have the 100% automatic turning that the Mesmer enjoys.

With something like 100 blades, I can run behind the warrior and the rest of his 100 blades will miss because he will continue to be facing forward.

If I’m out of dodges, I can just run straight through a 100 blades or pistol whip and be positioned behind the warrior or thief and they are channeled ability won’t hit me anymore. However in the case of facing and Mesmer, the Mesmer will automatically turn around and continue to channel blurred frenzy. Yes I could move sideways or backwards, but the movement speed is not as fast as moving forward.

In addition, moving sideways will not place me out of the 130yard hitbox range arc of the melee ability faster than running straight through the enemy. Of course this is futile when the Mesmer and auto face in any direction during the channel.

What’s the reason for having Mesmer’s automatically face their targets 100% of the time no matter what even during the cast of blurred frenzy? I haven’t seen any other ability in the game do this?

^and just about every other game has zero lag….

solo queue would bring me back

i know anet get with the times. it’s all about company transparency nowadays with customers. stop hiding all ur data and plans. get with the internet age already

i dont think aNET needs to add search function if other ppl already made them. just give the basics data and let players mod their own boards. then anet can focus on in-game work

didnt someone say karl spoke at length about the classes descriptions because that’s what he was ASKED to do? so it’s not really him to blame. not saying he is doing great job at class balance in pvp…but need to bring up that point

Jon i too love your face love your soul.

lolyes we need a “cheaterboard” for sure or “rage quits” stat
