Its devoid of drama, therefore its "deeply flawed" lol

It does great for what it designed to do, it doesnt do things some people want it to do.

Fix glaring things (culling) add some more fluff, add decent rewards (its miiiiiiiiiles behind PvE, its not even funny) nad thats it.

As much as I feel GW2 is heavily over-rated and isn't that great of a game...

...Wow this hurts... but...

...Really, they shouldn't be bashed for not delivering on time. Sometimes things attempting to be fixed might not be ready for deadline and as such its often times better to hold of launching rather then delivering immediately. That being said,  if it is repeatedly pushed back and delayed, I can good reason to complain about it. 

Just know that games are a very complex thing to create and theres a lot beind it. Delays are to be expected when it comes to content, particularly parts that a large part of the game that are important to a game, WvW being one of GW2s primary features so it is to be expected when it is handled that they will want it to be done correctly in order to avoid exploits and other serious conditions that might occur which could harm the game.

There's nothing that remotely suggests Arenanet  has the slightest clue how poorly designed WvW is.To believe that a patch is some how going to miracously  fix such a deeply flawed game...I think is unrealistic.

I honestly think Arenanet thinks theres nothing but technical software design issues(lag and invisible opponents) rather than the reality that the game has deeply flawed WvW game play issues.

Honestly, I just don't see a much better design for WvW in a theme park game ...from Daoc to GW2 there hasn't been a single game I played that could even get the 3 sided combat right .I don't see any deeply flawed issues now that server transfers have a cost ...and the "kool kids" aren't jumping from winning server to winning server, but perhaps you could enlighten us on these flaws and give an example of better WvW combat.

So many months (since release) without a single content update for WvW and now we see an indefinate push back (again). It's pretty obvious ANet doesn't care for WvW in the least. There is nothing but promises and excuses to keep you entertained until TESO comes out. Hopefully other devs know how to support an RvRvR format

 

I guess in your rush to spew more anti-GW2 venom you failed to actually read the post above by Colin which tells a completely different tale.

Well, he does have a point. It's all been words and promises so far, no real changes has happened to WvW.

Its not what he wants it to be therefore its "deeply flawed". Nevermind crapton of people enjoy it how it is.

If you want something slower paced where everything takes forever and strong territorial control/drama theres always EvE, its another great game.

There have been changes to culling and thats most important issue at hand. All other "issues" are pretty minor.

I really don't understand why people have to be negative upon everything and that's not matter if it's GW2 or anything else really.

The devs promised a february update and we are getting one at the 26th.

They prevent us from having a buggy WvsWvsW by pushing back the WvsWvsW extra content so we can enjoy it without problems till they give us additional stuff and improvements a month later (maybe its even one week only instead of a month) and we still complain?

Would it be better to get bugs and unpolished extras added that would even break what we have so far, making WvsWvsW eventually totally broken?

Also find it funny that people that "quit playing for weeks/months" or whenever, feel the need to come back here and start bashing the game whenever possible.

Don't you people have anything else to do or any other game to go play instead?

I'm really wondering....

This reponse by Mikahr is something you see a lot as pro-GW2 posters contradicts ANet the makers of the game.

If 'all other issues are pretty minor' why did ANet make this WvW Update a big deal?

The poster essentially called ANet 'liars' or 'a company that doesn't know their own game' which I disagree with. I think ANet have been truthful in many cases; not all like in GW1 days but still.

Originally posted by IPolygon Oh, you mean we still get expansion worth of content? I don't.

 

Fact 1: There has been no single content update for WvW since release (unlike PvE and sPvP). And no, I don't count breakout events as content.

 

Fact 2: WvW is in a sorry state and ANet doesn't care - obviously.

 

Fact 3: I am sick and tired of ANet tales. They are just that, tales.

There were significant improvements in culling departement. And that matters only in WvWvW. First things first.
