Certain commanders who only hunt rookie blobs for easy kill counts always try to avoid stronger servers/guilds. By choosing whether they want to move tiers up or down. Because it is so easy to manipulate. However, if you change the tiers to purely kdr based, it will be very difficult for them to manipulate it. no, it will be even easier. They will just avoid the other blob and hunt down small groups and single players. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, if Anet could make it impossible for them to avoid each other (Only tiers promotion based on kill death rate would help here), then it would also be a situation that favors wvw activity for others. Guilds just starting their journey, even if they are blob size, should not face those who have 12 years of experience behind them. Certainly even real fight guilds are pretty boring if they don't have a challenge. Yes they can do arena gvg but it's boring compared to regular wvw where you never know who else will join the party =P. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VAHNeunzehnsechundsiebzig. Posted July 29 Author Share Posted July 29 As I wrote already, kdr based ranking would make them avoid each other even more. These are people who think that fighting 50v15 is "fun". As long as they are the 50. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly.7019 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 (edited) "whole communities ripped apart" - (true) - now maybe they coulda made alliances bigger, or even kept some server guilds together in the beginning, but i noticed some servers did stay together. You had the option to join an alliance aka "server alliance" though that true option of a 6th guild came super late to it and most people had already made alliances with other guilds and left a guild to make room for a new 5th guild wvw alliance. I wonder how many guilds have alliances with other guilds. Pretty much if you didn't prepare or no one wanted you and its just your guild, this new mode sucks a lot more and makes it feel like your guild is just a pug alone on a map.

For this to fail, because with this model they don't make any money as they did with transfers between servers. but that in part is also what ruined the game mode by fight guilds jumping around. if your guild/ server is/was good you should be facing other good servers not worse then you, lower tiers. Same should still be true now only the shuffle changes and those higher ranked guilds should be bundled together facing each other not lower casuals. Though i don't know really if anet can even do this. Edited July 29 by Kelly.7019 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was same thing on the first one but then i sat in loading screen for 40 min. I just want to do reset 😞 reset should be at an off peak time so "just doing reset" would lessen the peak time activity. Oh and you should have a freaking ticket queue system not spam a portal for total randomness. then you could of course make the overflow map a little more juicy.

Xoranium.6481 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Haven't played since the WR.... Yes the servers were feast and famine, but without communities wvw will suffer slow painful death. Maybe Anet will realise this.. maybe not Best of luck 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameirus.8407 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 logged in today...I've been moved to a different team in a different matchup.....what the hell anet? and the experience has opened my eyes. I disliked the system before, its hell on this new matchup. absolutely zero commander tags visible at prime time...none, not a single one. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of them had communities. and no hardly anyone jumped between servers. we dont have full data but when its been polled, the overwhelming (high 90%+) never moved server, and of those that did it was a very small number of times. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troubadour.6397 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Reset, placed in the wrong team, the next day had been moved to yet another team, meanwhile my guild had also been moved to another team, other guild members were also put in different teams, we counted about 5 different teams between us. Sent a ticket reset night, explained that i had been put in team '1' Guild was in team '2' could i go to team 2? By the time the ticket was dealt with, we were of course both on different teams ( 3 and 4), so I was not moved to the correct team. I pointed this out said yes, Guild was now on team '3' and i was on team '4' could i be moved to team 3? Sunday, I was moved again but for some reason they thought the change after the reset problems was the only issue and they moved me back to team '1' some others in Guild were moved back to team '2'. No! I said, I need to be on team '3' That was my play experience over the weekend and I cannot play week days this week so no WvW at all, I heard there is still a couple of guild people being bounced around. We all did the correct choosing a WvW guild process. What a complete waste of time and i reckon the support team are sick of it as well. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
multiwickingerhabich.9867 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 I think that in order to get the servers back we need to create a big petition in the forum and present it to the developers and everyone should sign it. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
