Fort Aspenwood

Jade Quarry

Heroes Ascent

man i loved the pvp in gw1 so much. Bring it back!!!

hahaha yeeeeaaaaaa buuuuddy!man those were the times. I was more of a fa guy. for a bit there I would advertise in a few places to get more people in fa, when we had barely under the req. sometimes I played a trolly para rezzer on the luxon side, and it kinda worked lol! was one of the most enjoyable types of combat ive played in a game! fa + ab = no other game can come close to this. cant even touch.I'm pretty sure with decent rewards and unique skins (a bunch of them) then it would draw a ton of pvers. gw2 pvp resurgence right here folks. you heard it here first!

You can't bring them back cuz as mentionned above by Stand The Wall.6987, you need to fill the population requirement in a match. I would not bet on population to stick with it. You either need to adapt it for a 1v1 or 2v2 & more or find something else.

Only real hopes for some good pvp like gw1 and not the joke we have now with circlequest. Is waiting on gw3 or gw1 remastered where HoH and the pvp arenas were epic pvp then you also had FA and JQ to add verity. FA and JQ 2.0 might actually save this game since factions was the best game for years. Letting guilds hold towns and even major cities because of their dedication was great.

Fun fact: WoW has a game mode almost exactly like Fort Aspenwood, and it's the most detested PvP map after the 40v40 farms.

i'd pay money for a pvp expansion containing new gamemodes or rather the old ones from gw1

It’s way better than circle fights. Sub it into the unranked queue and give pips and if the population catches on add it as ranked

1. Battleground ranked guild vs guild (enroll tournament style)
2. Battleground solo/duo (queue anytime)

this is true, but with all things, throw enough rewards at it to attract the pve player base all the while giving them mechanics to contribute!

If the only reason not to do new modes is people aren’t interested in the current spvp format than it’s a catch 22.

“PvP population can’t support more game modes because we have low population. We have low population in spvp because few people enjoy the current game modes.”

You either add game modes people like, to bring back the crowd plus bonus gw1 nostalgia crew, or you accept that half of your rank queue is just there for pips and will continue to dwindle every year because they don’t actually enjoy tiny circle fights.

If wow can have ranked bgs and arena and give reward points in unranked queue why can’t GW2? The interest in pvp is there people just don’t like the current format in GW2. The point is to bring in more players not spread the current base. Clearly the current mode is not attracting new people it’s causing the population to stay the same or stagnant. Time to do something new when you aren’t growing anymore or dig into the vaults for what worked in the past.

They need to scrap this idea of each game mode having its own queue and instead treat all solo-q as WoW does with battlegrounds. You queue up for unranked (solo-q ranked needs to go away) and any of the maps/game modes can pop.

It's really that simple.

I would pay money to see Isle of Solitude come back in any shape or form. Playing split builds on that map got me my champion 6 title.

I agree, and I especially agree with that very last point you made quoted from you in bold.

When what is putting players off in the game's current state, go back to the game's roots proven to work, and maybe even improve on them, yet not to the point it dwarfs what originally worked into something not likable all over again.

Bump.

This needs to happen in the next expansion so we can all move on from circlequest and have some fun and more competitive PvP.

Circlequest is zzz zzz zzz zzz. Stale boring circle dancing.

Why not just get a bunch of people together and have monthly pvp tournaments or play fort aspenwood, jade query. Guild wars 1 still exists and I would totally be down, I loved fort aspenwood.

To hard for Anet developers and wayyyyy to hard for the kinda of players they wanted playing their game.

Besides the current aoe spam and passvive boon farting classes design would be a mess.... most players dont want to have objectives just use theyr broken gimmick to stack n spam.

This is a game(gw2) for scrubs anything that would need team effort and srpead to complete objectives would not work well.
