Keet.3142 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I've been in several matches when a certain player will simply stop playing or go AFK for most of the match before return right at the end of the match to give the appearance of some activity. But in either case, the match has already been thrown. Anyone have these issues? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fueki.4753 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 It happens every know and then. There's nothing we can do against that. The best you can do is not thinking of sPvP as a serious or competitive game mode. 5 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabbitsocks.3726 Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 noticing a pattern now were the team i am on will get exactly half way to winning..and its like their brains fell out and they go full ADHD and fight off points till we lose. capping all 3 points at some times and then they just....stop. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FortyTwo.8697 Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 What I've noticed is sometimes several players will just solo charge headfirst into the entire enemy team throughout the entire match. They create a non-stop gravy train for the enemy by just getting themselves killed consistently. They don't try to regroup. They don't bother with capping or decapping points. They just die one after another over and over again. Even bots play better than that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chokela.4823 Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 This kind of manioulation mentioned by op can happens ofc but it's really uncommon and in 99% times it's just a tilted player on vendetta to his own team for wtv reason. I just question pve player's ability to effectively understand anything related to spvp. Its way easier to denunce a pseudo conspiracy in manipulations lol than admitting that they were so bad that the p3+ player paired with them could not stand 1 more second of this clown fiesta. Who are not even able to read a chat map. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The P3 are no better being real. Bunch of clowns carried by DuoQ, gatekeeping the same 100 or so people every season over and over, that's what it mostly is. And like you said they even ragequit just like the golds. The main difference being that John Wintrader can afford to eat a -20 rating at whim because they can just DuoQ and snipe the same lower-rated soloq players to make up for it after. A gold is the one getting queue-sniped. The very top% of Ranked's population are a lot of things, but being a victim definitely isn't one of them. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more games you play per hours the more wins you can get. If that player believes that a game is already lost, the best thing he can do is loose as fast as possible to get to the next game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sovarica.4368 Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Almost every match I go into people blame someone for match manipulation I kinda feel sorry for these people who really care about rating with how fallen the population has gotten and the glory days of gw2 pvp mode has pretty much ended and what's left is just the bronzies mental level flaming each other 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbitsocks.3726 Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 i no longer care about rank. its just not possible to win anymore. im just here to serve one purpose. to get all my ledgendary armor sets done and move on. anet has made this game mode as broken as any other and im done with it. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chokela.4823 Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 I'm one of thos top% ranked players and I can tell u yes I duo no we dont queue snipe people and yes I just go off when there are too many clowns with us it's just pointless. I dont even blame them its matchmaking being non fit for low population. Stoo believing there is a conspiracy of smething like that there are really isolated cases. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nvidia and AMD have buildin Capturesoftware. You can record the last minutes if you hit a button. For nvidia its called shadowplay or something. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday evening I played a match. The map as Revenge of the Capricorn The game just started, and they already got themselves killed over and over again. The entire match only me (Thief) and one Mesmer tried to play seriously. Both of us could barely hold close together because our teammates were either dead or busy getting killed again the entire match, from start to finish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anyone believes all the top players partake in wintrading schemes. But there are a few people who seem to ruin it for everyone else. And yes, the matchmaking doesn't work well when there are too few people playing PvP. I agree with that. Either the matchmaking system needs to change, or people need to somehow be encouraged to play more PvP. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
