Changes to WvW in Guild Wars 2 have a special priority for fans. They have now been heard in the forum.
The Myth of the Great WvW Update
In the meantime, many fans can only smile wearily in the comments on Reddit and various news sites when they hear about the planned changes to the WvW battles of Guild Wars 2 “once again”. They have already had to wait too long for something to finally change “properly” and the major overhaul of server battles is still pending. In a post on the official forum, players discussed their wishes and the “Top 5 things that need to be changed in WvW” reasonably.
This discussion also involved Mike O’Brien, the current president of ArenaNet, who praised the players for the thread, as it would contain valuable feedback. They have now taken 5 points particularly to heart from the numerous suggestions made.
- The battles should run more stably and the abilities should be balanced.
- The Desert Borderlands (“Desert Borderlands”, DBL) will either be “fixed” as they are too complicated or completely replaced with the old map.
- The rewards will be revised; currently, they feel unsatisfactory for the players.
- There are often massive differences in the population of the three factions, and they want to improve this.
- The way victory points are calculated will be revised (no concrete details yet).
Whether these points can really be changed or resolved to the extent that the community desires remains to be seen; at least they want to “take these 5 points from the feedback and make them top priorities.”
