  1. WvW is a dead game anyway. 90% of the servers avoiding any real competition like fights. At least the majority of a server. All they are doing is capturing towers, running across an boarder only to cap the north camp and teleporting back to spawn. 

     

    Or the favorite:  capping SM, instantly building on all gates 5 arrow carts, trebs, catapults and then hiding in it with 80 people the whole day. 

     

     

  2. 4-5 maps at the release + another 6 related to EoD if they do a lw season 5 where every episode have his own map.

     

    I think we have to wait this time a bit longer for the first episode unlike 2017 with PoF and Season 4. Maybe sometime Fall 2022 we get the first Episode.

  3. No hate but please put the WB files into the trash bin, clear it and start over again. 

     

    Its not good in anything. People already mentioned all his flaws multiple times. If there are no major improvements to the elite, it won't be played in any game mode because why, when DH and FB are just miles ahead. 

     

     

    Edit

    Instead of OH sword main hand focus and a more brawler like elite (elite focus skin would be a big heavy armor glove) 

     

    (not so serious here) 

     

    Skill 1 would be an auto attack chain, where he smash the enemy with both Hands. Left, right, left, right on a 240 range and 5 enemie aoe (animation a bit like the new shroud 1 skill on Nekros who goes super sayajin with it xD) 

     

    Skill 2 a 600-900 range jump hulk smash to the ground aoe ish damage with a knockdown. 

     

    Skill 3 stun break / stomp skill that heals a bit and interrupts enemies.

  4. Ftom what i have seen WB is just dash dash dash dash shadowstep dash dash dash with ok damage. As power with GS + S/S maybe a bit weaker than DH. The F keys are clunky to use, lot of times i ended up running/jumping away/through the mob and had to run back 😛

     

    Sustain is rly good with selfheal. Made the meta event on the lw3 map with this worm and the golem who attacks the worm. On DH sometimes its harder to fight the elites, with WB it was easy. 

     

     

    Condi makes zero damage but only tested it with little modified pve condi fb traits. 

     

    While even with the weakest laziest rotation, its easy to hit 20k burn burst on FB. On WB with all that burn on F Keys, with purging flames it was hard to even get 7k burn ticks (on golems)

    If you've ever played a game with public test servers where they copy your account over to the test server this is the same. Nothing you do on a beta character will be saved or copied over to your normal ones.

    That would be the case when this beta is completely separated which its not. 

     

    Its useless to play that beta in some pve parts or WvW. 

     

    I accidently finished diamond chest on the beta char in WvW. 4 mystic coins down the toilet. Not going to risk of dropping a pre or an infusion by testing it in some meta events. 

     

    This would be an instant uninstall ragequit moment. 😄

  6. People can react how they want but I will say it again. When alliances work how we think it does. 

     

    WvW dies. 

     

    We have for sure then 2 big fighting alliances with maybe 2 Meatshield guilds for ppt and the rest is some karma train alliances or smaller fighting Guilds with low numbers. Every small roaming group without an alliance have to deal every 2 month with completely new people. 

     

    Alliances of guilds will fail because of toxic or elitists behavior, guilds will kick out of it.

    The game needs a shader cache like D912PXY offers one. That's all.

     

    GW2 unplayable without D912PXY esp. in WvW. You can't even turn for 90 degrees without huge stutters in large scale as the real time shader compiling kills every CPU.

     

    No need for another API - just add that cache. 30 fps in large scale are okay - the stutters are not.

    I have no problems with that in WvW. Even with 3 blobs, 150 players and 20 fps. No stutters in turning the camera.

    All false.

     

    You obviously don't understand at all how databases work.

     

    They're essentially not very different from big excel spreadsheets. All character info - race, question completion etc. - is just data (usually numeric) and can be changed very easily.

     

    Changing from asura to charr might be changing from 1 to 2.

     

    Personal story would be no problem at all. None.

     

    The "difficulty" lies only in business model. For a whole range of reasons ANet would prefer players to just create a new character. Replay everything. And ideally rebuy all of those character bound gem store unlocks.

     

    Cute but i have a degree in computer science and databases were a huge part of it. I know a bit how databases are working (not fully, because not working with them) 

     

    If anet can't change the race without risking bugs, the race is an important value in the database linked to the character itself and several tables (Quests) 

     

    U cant just use 

     

    "UPDATE table SET race = XY WHERE username = Caeledh.5437 AND charactername = WhatEver" 

     

    It takes a lot more and obviously ANETs thinks, it can cause bugs. Especially when the race value is a key value (secondary key f.e for personal race quests)

     

    They know how their db is builded better than everyone here.

     

    And for this "eXcEl sprEadSheeTs aRe lIkE dAtAbAses"
