Deadmoose.6594 Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 It takes too long, nobody has time for this kitten only for a loss and 3 pips. There are plenty of other games to play now, and the game mode just isn't good enough anymore to justify playing conquest. Give us straight up arena non stop and give us the conquest chest rewards. OR do something like knock the point limit in conquest down to 300. Nobody wants to wait around for a team to get to 500, especially if you're losing. The match is usually decided in the first minute anyway, you need some better mechanisms to address this issue. 7 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The match is usually decided in the first minute anyway, you need some better mechanisms to address this issue. I have 24K games played. The match quality got unquestionably worse over the years... but still, games that are decided right at the start is like 1 out of 10. If you think the first fight decides everything and it's too long anyway... play something else. I'm not kidding, not trolling, this is my actual advice on how to solve this. The only reason to play conquest at this point is because you enjoy it. If you don't, go try something else. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domino.1359 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 OP is still right - conquest has become awful. Been doing pvp since it came out and every match I wish I didn't do it - but this is also why I keep playing because it's addicting getting the win. So if that's not how you feel, gotta move on bro - like I said, this game mode hasn't changed in a decade and only gotten significantly worse. Only play because you want to, to have fun. Note: this isn't an excuse of the poor quality and management (lack thereof) of this game mode from anet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madam Pussycat.6153 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I think deathmatch sucks, I have to take a 2 week break from pvp when deathmatch starts and I don't like that at all. Considering how full pvp is atm as soon as deathmatch season ends I'd say most people hate deathmatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that's only burnt-out people's opinion, but given that only updates to pvp are the scheduled balance patches, it seems that ANet might unironically share the sentiment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadmoose.6594 Posted August 10, 2023 Author Share Posted August 10, 2023 if match making were actually good it wouldn't be an issue. I'd rather have 10 close matches and lose all 10 than this 50/50 bs that we have right now. Being locked in to a 50/50 win rate is an atrocious scheme. Really just bare bones 0 thought into this game mode with no updates or improvements in sight. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldilock.2584 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Conquest is fun and main reason allot of poeple stack aroubd. Balance dobt really take affect unless u are playing in higher levels. The issue has always been around match making and thats a population issue. Posts like this wont fix the population issue it will damage it more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khalisto.5780 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) have you ever thought you hard locked at some rating cuz you aren't good enough to climb. It's been 3 years i'm around 1500 rating, but that's pretty much my fault, cuz I meme and I don't duo q.

I don't know about you, but I couldn't say with a straight face that game mode collectively abandoned by playerbase nearly completely is the reason why people stick around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sereath.1428 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) It does. It has to be played in such a specific and restrictive way that balancing the classes around it kills the chance of having other game modes, because the balance outside of Conquest would be even worse. And conquest is just far too complicated for the vast majority of people, and I hear this all the time right here: "Why are my teammate so kittening trash at rotAtinG?" "Why do I have two thieves and two necros in my team? Do people not understand the rolEs of cOnquEst???"

If Conquest was that fun, you wouldn't have to gatekeep and hold back other game modes for years out of fear that it would kill your queue time. Didn't make for a good esport either did it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoftFootpaws.9134 Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 (edited) the games really are just too long, and i think this is what sucked my enjoyment out of pvp the most. let's be honest, 250 points is more than enough, and there's really no reason for a game to last longer than about five minutes total. even the pregame could be significantly shorter. at the moment it takes up to half an hour to play a pvp match, if you include waiting for the queue to pop. this game is in a really strange place now because the combat is super fast paced after all the powercreep, but its like playing short bouts of quake inbetween sessions of a turn based strategy, waiting for all the pieces to get into position first. i think that wvw largely has the same problem. fast battles that end in seconds or minutes, but extremely high ramp up time to fights. they either need to slow the combat down to what it was at release, (which is what all the times and thresholds were balanced around), or speed up the matchmaking and general ability to get into combat in both competitive modes. unfortunately the only way to do this in pvp would be to remove ranked, since arenanet has said in the past that the majority of players queue for unranked only. do you want to be a slow-paced and strategic, or fast-paced and chaotic game? they need to decide and stick with it, for good.
