Nash.3974 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 The recent poll just amazed me how many people who aren’t affected by anything voted against what the majority of the affected people want.To be more specific: it’s a fact that the majority of the plat 2+ players want duoq back. Then why do polls not always show this is a result?Because also people who aren’t affected by that get to vote and somehow most of them like to vote no.I‘m wondering about why do you vote for something you have no clue about/ you aren’t affected by?How did anyone think making a poll where everyone can vote even though they may have no knowledge about what really is best/good for a specific audience is solving a problem or is smart at all?What do you gain from voting no to duoq above plat 1 as a bronze/silver & even gold player?Explain please!!!

Airdive.2613 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 I didn't get to platinum this season (just thief things), but I generally hate duos in my team because most of them are worse than two separate players.@Nash.3974 said:To be more specific: it’s a fact that the majority of the plat 2+ players want duoq back.

Coolguy.8702 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Hopefully Anet wont listen to them this time. Most people who commented in that thread wanted duo q back and gave facts to back it up. The few who voted no were just selfish players who didnt really explain how duo q would ruin the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etheri.5406 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Same reason polls in WvW never worked. The vast majority of the game is casual players that barely know what they talk about, but have strong opinions on everything... They tend to vote like populists, in favor of whatever they think will give them most short-term gain to then blame anet / others when it obviously backfires. You can't have proper feedback in a "democratic" fashion if the majority of the players don't grasp the game and aggresively vote / have opinions on everything. Every other week I get some PvE player telling me how PvP or WvW should be revamped "for casuals" and made "more fun". Yeah, I'm sure after half a week of playing you have great insight on what they should do with these modes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crab Fear.1624 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 When I am active...I hover around plat 1. I voted that you could have duo q (or more) back....for any rating (yes even those above 1600).I don't know why a silver or bronze would say no, but a gold 3 player might have some issue with it.The mmr works and then it doesnt. Whenever I make the climb to p1, and I am there or at the top of gold 3...I have played matches against teams that had 2+ players in the 1600-1700.Now, perhaps my team had them too...or maybe not. Two coordinated plat 2+s can absolutely destroy a team if the other team has none. Here is an imaginary setup:team 1: Plat 2, Plat 2, Gold 1, Plat 1, Gold 2 (assuming base rating for each rank the average is 1440)team 2: Gold 3, Gold 3, Gold 3, Gold 3, Gold 3 (assuming the base rating for each rank the average is 1400)in theory, this match could take place (i would like to believe i have seen it)which team is most likely (for real..for real) to winthe bolded plat 2's are in a duo together everyone else is solo....which team will win?Now..I voted, Yes for it...because....idgaf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MithranArkanere.8957 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Duo queue never works. No variable team formation has ever worked along any kind of rated game system in any game. Sooner or later the developers of a game realize that, until matchmaking is only full teams and/or full solo, and if they don't, it only becomes another factor that helps emptying the game. One doesn't even need to be higher than bronze to know that, the same way one doesn't need to be an super bowl winner to know that concussions are bad for the players and for the long term survival of the game itself, and 'boring' rules to prevent them are very much needed.

Nash.3974 Posted July 24, 2018 Author Share Posted July 24, 2018 Y’all don’t get it.What makes you think you know better than the very best players in the game?Do you really think these players want duoq back so they can farm leaderboard or something? Why do you think would they want to get god of pvp even though they have it already? Sindrener mentioned a trillion times on stream that he doesn’t care about his rating or ranking.Yet these players want duoq back…You don’t understand that this leads to more and more top players leaving the game. In fact every season less and less good players play. This leads to pvp being less and less skillful and competitive. Nobody cares if you got r1 in these season not even because it could be wintrade but simply because there is no competition.Go on thinking like that and don’t you dare believe what top players have to say ( don’t worry I‘m not referring to me as top or best player, just referring to what sindrener and the likes think or atleast have said before ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't make up to the skill and coordination of a duoq as a solo player.Also nothing stops you from duoqueing with someone.That is true.I never had an issue with top players duoqueing together also not at misha sind duoq times.Because you have never played at the level it actually makes a difference.If you think you know better then explain why most top players left the game and the few ones left think duoq has to return.

I don't think it's false. It's very clear that the game is predominantly played by a majority of low-skilled casual players. The original wvw and pvp community has left almost entirely. Any polls we've had have been impacted by this. How do you interpret poll results, if 10% of players play pvp frequently and 90% of players barely play pvp, aren't impacted by the proposed changes directly but still have their own "!!! muh opinions!". I get your point; OP can claim as they wish in their favor and you can agree or disagree. That doesn't mean it's not true; the vast majority of players "voting" don't know what they're on about and their vote isn't even relevant. But they'll vote to feel relevant regardless. Which is mostly their loss; because they're generally making the game worse by their own ignorance. So calling them names and calling them clueless while hissing at them is the best solution to it? Can we please put away that elitist behavior and maybe have a discussion with these "irrelevant players" ? Players come and go and the community should adapt. But instead of adapting most of them don't like newcomers because "THEY ARE RUINING MAH GAMEMODE WITH BEING CLUELESS AND NOT GETTING ANY HELP BY A MORE EXPERIENCED PLAYER!"I don't mind clueless players. That's perfectly fine. I'm sorry but the tons of "I played WvW for the first time this week and it was great but here's how you need to change it to make it better !!!" are absolute garbage.All the "I have great ideas on how to improve the game !!!" yet as soon as you ask 2 mindful questions you notice the entire system falls appart... Right; garbage. If you barely understand how the game works, you're not in a position to drastically improve it. There's nothing wrong with new / bad players playing the game. There is a lot wrong if the feedback of these players is dominating all other feedback to the point where adequate feedback is nearly impossible. If you can't tell the difference, then we drastically need more elitism in this game. @"Kako.1930" there are several fair conclusions you can draw from this thread; and you haven't contributed to any of them. You've just spammed about "your discussion has a lack of scientific data and all points here are moot!" while not providing any arguments, counter arguments or even a consistent reasoning showing your own point of view. Frankly, just more spam to sift through which hasn't adressed a single issue here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mega.5791 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 @Nash.3974 said:(...)To be more specific: it’s a fact that the majority of the plat 2+ players want duoq back. Then why do polls not always show this is a result?(...)Or maybe because your assumption is wrong. We don't know, because there is no poll like that. @rank eleven monk.9502 and me, for example, are probably against duoQ - sorry if I assume something wrong here. Without a proper poll exactly reflecting the rating and the vote for or against duoQ, you just shouldn't assume such things.Such a vote would actually be interesting (I totally agree with that), but could hardly reflect the whole truth, because it is hard to catch all the players. Therefor most polls are not statistically relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
