In Topic: The Elder Scrolls: Online

I bought GW2 for what I thought Elder Scrolls Online is shaping up to be. World class faction vs faction conflict(or in the case of GW2 server vs server conflict).I've stopped playing GW2.

Not playing GW2 anymore...Playing SKYRIM  to get into the Elder Scrolls world even if it's single player.

Because the amount of people that actually like PK are not enough to justify spending a AAA MMO budget on them. Right now it is barely enough to justify on making a NON PK AAA game. ( you could argue that a good MMO innovative MMO will bring numbers. I will argue that gamers love the familiar and are not going to adopted to new things unless they are forced to; which is why 99.99% of AAA new IP are created during the first few years of a console release.)

DAOC(the gold standard of realm vs realm warfare) has been running for 10 years despite the best efforts from its former producer  Mark Jacobs to kill it(with expansions like TRIALS OF ATLANTIS). Elder SCROLLS ONLINE has as a primary focus realm vs realm conflict.(Hundreds of millions in development costs and 5 years of development have already happened because some believe they know how to do realm vs realn right.

WHERE IS EVERYONE NOW ?
I bought GW2 because I expected world class server vs server conflict/warfare(keeps/towers/siege engines/rams etc etc).Instead I found that the Arenanet developers concept of warfare was a 2 week 24/7 mindessly repetative basketball game where the team that scores the most points wins !! Then you pretend it didn't happen and do it all over again for another two weeks .

So....I'm gone from mmog's. I have been playing Elder Scrolls SKYRIM. It's a poor substitute for what I thought GW2 was going to be ...a great game of faction(server) conflict. I'm looking forward to the possibilities of ELDER SCROLLS ONLINE.

In Topic: The REAL future of WvW...

I bought the game for one primary reason.My hope that a gaming company(other than DAOC) would understand what world class faction conflict was all about. Clearly Anet did not, and does not  understand .They continue to think WvW should be some kind of expanded pvp match.......or a two week basketball game to see who can score the most points.

I had hoped to see some glimmer of hope in the devs comments,hence my return to this forum today.I'm frankly disappointed but not surprised.

As for myself...I'm done with this game unless radical((for Anet) changes in gameply and content take place.I've left the mmog genre(playing Elder Scrolls.... Skyrim) and following Elder Scrolls Online.

This game is losing players in the natural level, in the natural coarse that MMOs due after launch. Do not attempt to foolishly misrepresent that by attempting to suggest it has to do with an engineer change. That is just foolish.

Ok(pulls the words you put in my mouth out) and spells it out......s l o w l y
1) the game is/has been loosing players(attribute it to what ever you want).I did not say it was for something that just happened a day ago with the Engineer nerf.....how could that be if you give the matter more than a seconds thought ?
2)My point was.....the game has been loosing players for some time...and a 30% reduction in damage dealing to a class that has not had much going for it to begin with ..... and that we all expected to be "fixed" ...NERFING ITS PRIMARY REASON FOR BEING....is NOT going to help the games player erosion problem.
