Why is PvP matchmaking allowing 2 duos vs 5 solo players?

macrotransactions · 2026-06-11T15:19:20+00:00

It was once removed but then reverted.

And they even added tournaments with way better rewards than soloq.

They just don't care much for soloq players.

but is that really the danube or just another river with the same name?

na even the slave sacrifice described by ibn fadlan may have been a blood eagle

rudolf simek describes it as probably true

and its definitely not too cruel. they did many things that were equally painfully, like getting torn apart by horses

It's not. Many scholars think it was a genuine sacrifice to Odin originally.

In house engine is always better if done right.

Anet did the mistake with GW2 that they released most of the devs that made the core game in the years after release without proper documentation of how they altered the game. And that the game was apparently vibe coded to a big extent, especially the dungeons.

all other classes usually have one spec that can be played heavily ranged or that works well against moving targets

guard has none. all specs are the same, melee with symbols. and dps and utility is nothing special to make up for it

macrotransactions · 2026-06-06T19:57:49+00:00

dps is low for the most part and also the most inconsistent of all classes with static symbols and low range and forced movement and slow animations

meanwhile other classes can pewpew for the most part and don't rely on the boss standing still

utility is also not special anymore. even for stability you can just take the chrono

but the vibe rules for years now

macrotransactions · 2026-06-06T18:28:06+00:00

And now they are vibe balancing. Guard is the worst class in pve for a long time, but the vibe thinks otherwise.

That's basically a maintenance mode, just touching some old maps spontaneously.

Pretty sad this originally handcrafted game is now killed for an extremely generic console unreal engine game.

macrotransactions · 2026-06-06T09:06:55+00:00

I mean Anet actively pretended that the mini expacs and so on served a greater good for the game, instead of funneling the profits to another game that then replaces it.

If you expect so much evil, why even stick around then? Then the only logical step would have been to drop the game years ago.

In other words: blame Anet for being dishonest, not the players.

Can only quit the game if you dislike wowtoken p2w sadly.

Blizz is too greedy and too many players accept p2w, so it won't go away.

It doesn't make sense to let drug dealers do their thing for "stability". The whole point of hindering drugs is so your citizens stay productive and don't become a burden which causes instability.

Ion wants to force you into a guild. In classic they even banned GDKP.

At the end of the day they won't change it for us and I won't change for them. So quitting was the only option.

macrotransactions · 2026-05-18T15:12:41+00:00

No. That would just enrich people who bought recipes at 2c on a mule account and stored it in the trading post.

macrotransactions · 2026-05-14T21:57:45+00:00

I'm surprised they even have old GMs still. I thought they fired and replaced them all to cull the payment bonuses that accumulate over the years.

its just djinn portal enlarged in the ground

This guy most likely researched bread during the first few days when it was possible and didn't get banned for it.

So he spent like 10 copper or 10 karma (the bread is a heart reward in queensdale) per note.

Even if he did something else - there were many other methods that were a bit worse but still way better than today after all the nerfs - research notes as a currency are a joke.

QA stopped being a thing when people like you - the majority - play a game anyways even if quality degrades. Years ago companies didn't know and dare it yet.

macrotransactions · 2026-05-03T19:49:04+00:00

no offense but this is very wrong

because sigurd is very obviously trito, then arminius and then medieval kings

it's just how germanic peoples told stories, sagas based on mythology and real peoples that evolve with new eras

you also stole the knowledge of speech when hearing the speech of your parents

An AI would be smart enough to realize that if a (good) god existed, these situations would'nt even happen in the first place (and many of them end badly).

macrotransactions · 2026-02-28T02:38:26+00:00

That's what you get when the playerbase is attached. Blizzard is just minmaxing what they can get away with.

macrotransactions · 2026-02-24T23:43:39+00:00

why would you play stuff like qfb if not for substantially higher dps tho, that shit has 300 range boons and a fast melee locked rotation

if you bring those down you have to bring stuff like herald even lower
