Shouldn’t we buff sub-paar players instead, to try boost their performance? It just doesn’t seem fair to empower people who are already getting kill counts in a match.
you can give 1000 buffs to bad players, won’t stop them from being spawn camped since they neither have map awareness nor have dodge keybinded
Yes you are right. You don’t want to give bad players, more of a chance to end up in Legendary do you. Imagine bronze level fights being a common thing in Legendary. Now instead of having poor match quality from Silver down. Because you’ve buffed the bad players instead of the good players. You’ll see such match quality being common even in Legendary division. You saw what happened when you made the ESL type players angry right?
But as in actual Relevant PvP games on the market. With carry mechanics installed. Team A with 2/5/5/6/7 going against Team 10/6/3/3/3 would not be a near automatic win for team A as it is now. Because instead of two players nearly always being in a mismatch up on T-B against T-A and losing the long battle. T-B’s 10 could possible go on a rampage early game and go 7 and 0 get the increased stats above T-A players, and carry his GW2 team to the win. Like how it’s done in the relevant PvP games on the market.
People again complain about population being so low. However either they don’t realize, blatantly ignore the facts why the population crisis happened in the first place. Too many disenfranchised vets, and other players getting fed up. With the way that the league system was set up, with no carry mechanic to cover the match maker’s short comings like in other games.
To simply put it. player skill is not at all value in GW2, compared to the relevant PvP games on the market. So of course these disenfranchised players are going to go where their hard work and dedication is valued. Leaving kitten in the population that just keeps getting bigger and bigger, at a faster and faster rate as time goes on. Till the point here yall are. Not enoth PvPers interested in playing PvP in GW2, to the point no match maker system, nor marketing campaign can help yall. More so since ANet disenfranchised even more players by making them the subjects of RNG for 3 decent team mates for their personal ratings. Then still tried to forced them to wear a rating that was not befitting of their skill.
Now yes if you are good and got the short end of the stick. You could and should make it to your rightful league after playing x Matches. However comparing to relevant games that have the carry mechanics in them. Such players will make it there much much much faster, and suitable, then players here in GW2. Then you have the trolls who know they got carried early on into the higher divisions. Now talking down on the players who got the short end of the stick and have to climb thru hell without a carry system/mechanic. Thus either carrying more players with them, or getting dragged down by other players.
My solutions
A.) Allow players to queue up as a 5 stack.
B.) Put a buff for when a player is going on a rampage. The better they are doing in the match, the more powerful they become{power stat wise}. Thus allowing them to truly carry matches, and get out of lower non competitive divisions at a productive rate. Also this will also pull those that are current being carried by others down. Because the much better player would be able to feast off of them to gain power, and snowball the match. Till the point the lower skilled and the high skilled players both end up in a division they should be in, at a much more productive rate of time.
C.) Just do away with 5v5 and start introducing 2v2s or 3v3s, since all that system can handle is 2 players queuing out with each other. Thus allowing all players to be able to have control once more. And not be disenfranchised.
D.) Just get rid of the ranked leagues altogether. Move the ranked gold and rewards to Unranked. And allow for players to get those rewards 24/7/365. True you’ll have no flashy league system. But lets be honest. This league system was a utter failure on so many levels. To lose so many players over added content, is a pretty sad bulletin for a developer’s resume.
.With this in mind,talking about conquest which you can win by sitting on nodes,or a dude with high mobility caping empty nodes as a true pvp compared to evil stronhold where you get points by channel spawning npc or destroying gates,is just ridiculous.If you want to say you like conquest more,just say it,no need to live in self-deception and talk about SHs being more pve than conquest maps …. .
