Justine.6351 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Maybe they are keeping it as a surprise?Anet does that sometimes. I've never been let down by them before and I don't see them starting now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully new expansion Cantha = wvw and siege turtles.That's just it, that's likely what they are planning. Remove wvw altogether, and make it a 2 way kurz/luxon battle again for alliance control of territories. Basically, a redo of Factions. WvW as we know it will end with Cantha.

It's getting to the point where you have to wonder if the devs working on alliances all left/got made redundant in the recent restructure, and none of the current devs actually know what alliances were even supposed to be.

LetoII.3782 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 It was rightfully scrapped as a bad idea. It took no accounting for timezone and would surely curtail transfer revenue.. A double whammy.The disappointing part is for that to be the end of it. Devs are game makers, I'd think coming up with novel solutions for things such as population control would be some of the most personally rewarding work in the genre. But then again Anet may be mostly graphic artists now, grinding out living story and trying not to wind up on the axe list like any mundane factory grunt.

Don’t continue to refer to something on the periphery if it isn’t going to happen.Say something like ‘we are unable to provide the system we discussed at this time. We can’t say it won’t happen, but it isn’t in the development phase any longer’I mean, it would bug me, but it would be over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can’t say it won’t happen, but it isn’t in the development phase any longer’I mean, it would bug me, but it would be over.If they can't figure out a new system for Alliances they should copy the mega server and launch an open world pvp version. Guilds can get together to form an Alliance guild that can be tagged or designated as an Alliance only guild so everyone can check that guilds chat to communicate while still repping their own guild. Then just change something to not allow friendly fire on anyone in an Alliance tagged guild even if not representing it at the moment. To boot someone from an alliance guild it could work like a group vote kick and guild leaders or officers gets a message. They can put a control point under structures in the world that guilds can claim and get bonuses from or whatever and add supply yaks to maps.At the moment there's like a small window of time in WvW and only really one or two main areas where large fights happen for more than a minute. It seems like people only really bother to siege when someone needs a keep take or just as an F U so they might as well let us rejoin the main world and get all of the story and expansion aesthetic and music if WvW is going to be forgotten.
