Greyrat.2378 Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 I would not say GW2 is in maintenance mode considering recent news (as long as they deliver on these promises). That being said, bump. 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couple thousand is a little ambitious don't you think? Feels more like a few hundred at most with another few hundred bots. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos God.1639 Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 (edited) its not only pvp. meanwhile pve already has zip-lines and boats, wvw doesn't even have ladders to climb the enemy walls or siege weapons on wheels. this is how outdated the wvw mode is.

Further, why would they invest all this time and money into shipping a DX11 version of the game if they were just gonna keep it in maintenance mode? Do you KNOW how much work it probably took them to completely rewrite the backend of the client and then bug-test it so it was a perfect 1:1 with the old client? And THEN redo all the dev tools so that they're compatible with the new client? Hell, we even got a new SAB world map. Wasn't much, but it was something. It's true that GW2 WAS in maintenance mode for a while. No argument there. But it's very clear that those days are behind us. And I absolutely hate that PvP has been neglected this much, but regardless of what you say, recently speaking, it's certainly not because GW2 is still in maintenance mode. Announcements aren't action. They announced WvW alliances what, 5 years ago? Anet are well known for not being able to deliver what they promise. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The DX11 update would never have been done if this game was in maintenance mode. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also we might get to see Alliances mentioned from time to time again. Minor PvP balance patches maybe 3 times a year, but hey we're not getting new e-specs anytime soon(maybe ever), so there is no big upset coming to destroy our carefully curated balance... For someone who's primarily a PvP player, this is no different from maintanence mode. You are technically right though. Which is all that matters. Sorry, I meant BUMP. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos God.1639 Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 i do think that players need to be more clear with what they want to add to the game. just being negative and not providing any feedback won't change a lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azure The Heartless.3261 Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 (edited) Bring back courtyard nah I'm kidding but once they get balance ironed out a smidge more (it's not perfect but things -work- now) they should look into a minor PvP centered festival or something to try to hook people on the content. Maybe let people progress those legendaries in unranked for short periods, idk. New map betas would be nice too, let people play on them for a season then fix the mesh where people exploit, etc etc. Edited May 23, 2023 by Azure The Heartless.3261 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. I can understand dooming when the balance was in freefall, but it ain't that anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true. But who cares? The diminished population is directly related to Anets lack of care. Diablo 2 pvp still exists 20+ years later. Even with a few dozen left in the community. No1 is really doing meph runs anymore. But they are still in the blood moor duking it out. Edited May 24, 2023 by jdawgie.1835 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
