Exile.8160 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) Not 1 mention of the pvp mode. We got completely left out. As a long time gw1 and gw2 player (since beta too) this is dispointing. Edited February 1, 2022 by Exile.8160 11 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solemn.9608 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I was expecting more along the lines of "all the elite specs cater to PvE more than pvp/WvW and catalyst in particular seems like it was designed at the last minute" Lol you really thought they would add anything to pvp/WvW with the expac Will be another 2-3 yrs before they even release a balance patch at this rate ^-^ 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega.6801 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Well, I have bad news for you. Not much has been done for PvP in the last years. A new expansion brings new elites that can be played in PvP so there, content for PvP, done. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega.6801 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Just now, Exile.8160 said: So pvp player only deserve elite spec as content? Something you all get by default. Then when we complain we are bad or at fault? Of course not. Of course a new map or new modes would be great for PvP and more so for the players really into this game mode. But ANet has pretty much abandoned PvP years ago along with WvW, so many variants of instanced PvE and many other things. It's just odd that this comes up now. I was under the assumption that everyone knew that not much would be happening for PvP, so all we could hope for in this regard are the elites and that they will bring something new to PvP. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgentMoore.9453 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 PvP isn't my thing, but I can understand why it is for some and why a lack of PvP stuff in EoD's promo material might be a bummer. You do get new specs with EoD, but a Canthan-themed competitive map could have been interesting for the PvP crowd to chew on. Expansions are kind of a big deal for MMOs, so if your primary game mode gets nothing with an expansion what are you supposed to feel other than disappointment? Right now it seems like they're scrambling to the finish line to get EoD out, but if they put things for PvP and WvW on their post-EoD roadmap, I think that'd be good. We know we'll get PvE no matter what, so there's no harm in doing things here and there for other parts of the game as well. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mungo Zen.9364 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I do not care at all for PvP, but agree that the effort to create a new PvP map would be minimal compared to the positive impact it could generate for the players in that game mode. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, normally I get hate for even daring to mentioning EoD and Pvp so its nice to see some people understanding our frustration.

You get exactly the same content everyone else does. The fact that you mage a choice to limit yourself to a single gamemode is... well, your choice. Pvp has easly way more pressing issues than just "getting something new with expansion". Edited February 1, 2022 by Sobx.1758 1 1 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For wanting something for pvp in the upcoming expansion? (Sarcasm) Ty for proving my point tho, we cant ask or speak our minds for anything pvp related without being blame or accuse of something. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(no sarcasm) And btw, I wouldn't comment that way if this thread was in pvp subforum from the start, but that's not where you've created it, it just got moved here after my post (or after your response, can't be sure about the exact timing) 🤷♂️ Either way, this point remains all the same: Pvp has easly way more pressing issues than just "getting something new with expansion".

Tescao.3042 Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 (edited) The only hope is that devs will drop the concept of FoTM rerollers, which creates an artificial appearance of interest for those who jump between meta builds. If this concept is not abandoned, everything will be the same as it was and you will wonder why some things are nerfed and other things are buffed, thinking that the players who talk about it on the forum are to blame. Therefore, it is better to move away from such a system (today there are four necro, tomorrow five mirages, in a month six heralds in one match and one build, etc). Edit: P. S. gw2 wanted to be individual, but fell into the same artificial retention of interest trap as all MMOs. Therefore, to restore balance appears the opposite effect - exhaustion. The macro game can be unimaginably deep, but the real depth starts where the ego ends, because the ego has limits because of the evaluation and reasoning. Funny paradox.

Shao.7236 Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Even if they'd regularly balance content, it's not wise to expect new maps since the formula gets old quickly. At best missing game modes like KOTH, CTF or even payload for what we care could be a fun twist to the otherwise very decisive aspect of the game already being rounded well enough with Conquest, as much as some may find it boring, works well enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
