End of the tournament thoughts: “thank, god!”
[HUE]
EotM is bad because it’s basically a pve map with much better rewards than regular WvW. There’s absolutely nothing to do with megaserver.
[HUE]
There’s no queues with the megaserver’s system.
I´d like to take this opportunity to recommend people that don’t know how the megaserver works, to read about it and to think how it would work perfectly in an AvAvA system.
[HUE]
Well, there’s no queues ever with the megaserver. When one instance is full, another is created.
Anyway, if the only problem is that the enemy players won’t be the same everytime you get in “WvW”, than we are good.
[HUE]
As stated many times above, random is bad. But the OP is not so far away from the solution. What we need is an alliance vs alliance vs alliance system and the megaserver’s instances tecnology. That will preserve some form of pride and guarantee even battles and that you’ll be placed in the same instance as your guildies and friends.
[HUE]
i dont want to play with randoms from other servers… tks..
Except that with the megaserver’s system, you would be playing with your guildies and friends.

Pre-Season 3 thoughts: Hell, no!
[HUE]
Every morning after reset night, when I go to bed winning/with close PPT and wake up 30k behind. It’s always wonderful. So much coverage skills.
[HUE]
EotM is just superior game mode.
+1
The Megaserver aspect of EoTm and the low likelihood of being hopelessly
outnumbered are what makes it better.We need that on regular WvWvW and make that AvAvA.
No thank you. There is a reason that EotM is for PvE players. Ask someone to defend something there. It is intended as a karma train. Nothing more, nothing less.
Lots of reasons, mostly because anet made that a pve map with better rewards than regular wvw. That’s not how it would work on an AvAvA system.
[HUE]
What Jim said.
15 char.
[HUE]
Scout tag sounds really good.
[HUE]
I would just use Hoelbrak runes and a -40% condition duration food, otherwise, condi builds will melt you.

[HUE]
At the moment, the only thing to look forward to that anet is giving to us is other games releases dates.
[HUE]
I think I’ll be leaving this game soon if there aren’t some outstanding changes in wvw.
If there’s no news of big changes in WvW after the end of this season, i’m done with this game.
[HUE]
Can’t wait for the next matchup, where we’ll face 2 servers with 10 times our coverage. Fun. Fun everywhere.
[HUE]
The best thing about season 2 is that it brought to the light all the problems this game mode has. Actually, that was the only good thing about this tournament.
[HUE]
Was awesome! The winner did 400k points, we did 144k and the third did 108k. So close =/
[HUE]
That’s adorable. I wish the difference between servers on Silver and Bronze leagues were just 2 to 1.
Been outnumbered by just 2 to 1 would be a luxury for most of T3+ servers.
[HUE]
Everyone is the “mighty” skilled superior server, until they don’t have superior numbers anymore. Funny how skills seems to disappear when the numbers does.
[HUE]
This isn’t evolution. This is specialization and acclimatization. Evolution implies a change in complexity and the builds aren’t any more complex just more specialized.
If a class could create a new skill that is a result of environmental changes, THAT would be evolution.
Even the lost of a skill is evolution. Like our tailbone, for exemple. It’s a common mistake to associate evolution with an increase of complexity. Sometimes, something that used to give us an evolutionary advantage “suddenly” is not needed anymore or even becomes a liability, and that’s when natural selection steps in.
[HUE]
Borlis Noob Legend, plz!
[HUE]
Being in BP since the beginning, and will stay here until this idiotic world system WvW is over. Hope anytime soon.
[HUE]
People in BP realized that. There was almost noone playing yesterday night. There’s a genuine chance that we’ll let NSP win this week, even with the large advantage we’ve got. That’s just stupid.
[HUE]
Why? The match is more balanced now, since the other server don’t outnumber us 5 to 1.
[HUE]
It happens when you’re blinded. =P
[HUE]
The PPT is fine, the coverage is kittened up. What we need is even numbers. What we need is megaserver’s instances and AvAvA. The instances would guarantee even numbers on all sides, and the PPT system works fine with equal numbers.
[HUE]
If it is such an easy problem to solve, what do you recommend be implemented to aid the issue that doesn’t punish players?
You must be new here. Tons of suggestions have been made in the past months alone. There’s dozens topics about the issue.
[HUE]
They were both tied and Blackgate isn’t present… I guess they are fighting each other normally, and the loser of this week will get the win in the next 2v1 against BG next week. So they can untie again last week, without BG presence…
/Two coppers
Nah, my friends on TC have basically kept me in the loop on what their server is doing since most of them disagree with it. TC is getting the win this week so JQ can get the win next week, if no backstabbing takes place. The win trade goes on without BG in the picture. It’s basically made this entire tournament a farce.
No. Coverage disparity and a PPT system solely based on coverage is what makes this entire tournament a farce.
If there were no 2×1 on NA T1, do you think that it would be legit to win every week just because your server has more people/coverage?
The whole system is a kittening joke. There’s no “legit win”. There’s no skills involved. There’s just coverage.
[HUE]
I don’t think they are saying anything because they don’t know yet what the changes to WvW are going to be. Season 2 happened to coincide with the rollout of the Megaserver implementation I believe, in part, to give them a few months to internally decide upon the course of WvW. I think the direction they want to take WvW has not been fully decided upon hence the absolute lack of communication. Nobody wants to say something that might not be true or followed up on so everyone is just keeping quiet. I think there are going to be some major changes to WvW following season 2…..
Took the words out of my mouth. I think we’ll see some big changes after the end of this season.
[HUE]
Megaserver and AvAvA. Is the way to go.
[HUE]
The lack of communication is beyond embarrassing.
[HUE]
Exact. If they don’t address the population issue, there’s no format in the world that could make this tournament fair.
[HUE]
I won’t even bother to log-in this week. A T4 server against a T2. They have more than 10x our numbers in WvW. No point at all.
[HUE]
If you are having problems with DP thief, use berserker stance. It’s hilarious how most of the time they don’t notice it and think they are safe inside that black powder.
[HUE]
Serious, this is kitten awesome. Maybe now that EVERYONE realized that the only thing that matters in WvW is numbers/coverage, ANet does something about it.
The most stacked server is feeling the pain of not having enough numbers/coverage to compete fairly with the others servers. Welcome to the reality of the vast majority servers, where uneven fights and no hopes of winning because numbers disparity is the rule.
Maybe your whining will save us all. Thanks.
[HUE]
I can only picture the lots of uplevels doing crazy stuff in WvW ^^
[HUE]
Sick skills, inspiring vid. Gratz!

Coverage.

[HUE]
So, I’ve been noticed that this Guardian from TKVA guild (Crystal Desert) is using two (maybe three) skills to make a bug where you can’t move your toon unless you /sit. Is anyone aware of this bug? I never played guardian, so I don’t know the name of the skills. One is the skills that pulls you towards the guardian.
It’s pretty annoying, and you can tell he knows about it, because even if you use some invisibility skill, he know that you are still stuck in the same place, even if he don’t use any stun skill whatsoever.
I would appreciate if someone checked it.
[HUE]
That would be stupid. It’s more likely an alliance system. It’s what most games with large scale battles are doing, and it allows some form of identity/pride.
[HUE]
That’s why they have the megaserver.
[HUE]
Yeah, but it’s not just one cpu in one server. They have a cluster of servers, with the best cpu’s available today (at least we hope so). Trust me, removing the AoE cap, adding more than 5 players to be calculated within that red circle won’t make the cluster goes bananas, even if you count all the 51 servers. And if needed, they can always add more cpu power to their cluster.
I would settle for a AoE cap of 20ish anyway.
[HUE]
Maybe not right now. But eventually, they’ll leave the server vs server style behind and go the alliance vs alliance route of Planetside 2 or ESO. With various campaigns (i.e. server instances inherent in each alliance match up).
EotM & the PvE Megaserver were just the warm up to alliance style play, I think.
My thoughts exactly.
[HUE]
It’s funny to see people blaming the CPU calculation-limit for the AoE cap, when nowadays any I7 can perform mora than 6 billion process per second. I won’t even talk about server cpu.
We can discuss the network traffic (which is also a poor excuse), but, please, don’t blame the CPU. It’s just nonsense. It’s not the 90’s anymore.
EDITed to erase a mention to another game. Don’t wanna give the mods a excuse to lock the thread.

OP must be new here. Welcome to Coverage Wars 2.
[HUE]
Party invite is not so bad as whispering. People on other servers are whispering me on a scary basis. No invitation, no needing to approval, no nothing…
[HUE]
Yep. I wouldn’t care about people hunting me down, but I would for sure care about people whispering me or just /s a lot of questions, demands, complaints…
