I could have sworn cheating and hacking and bots were against the rules. However it seems to be allowed by anet every season and game mode threw out the game. Take action anet, perma ban these people. Don't prove to your community that your bleepderpers.

Yes. Keep it up. As long as you have fun doing it, feel free to keep playing PvP.

You Shouldn't need rewards to play a game that you enjoy....I certainly don't need any rewards to PvP. When I want to PvP, the game it self drives me to play not rewards.

Hay I'm a hopeful little bi-tch that's wants progress with the little amount of time we have for this god send of a game mode.....I really hope 3v3 doesn't dissapear like the 2v2 did. I like this 3v3 more then 2v2 that's for sure.

Hay anet I gots a question for you all..

.will there be a balance at all during this 3v3 to help morph the meta into something different other then what it is? Or y'all just complacent and lazy? Do work like balance and meta changes or do nothing and be considered lazy peons.

I don't give a flying whoot about rewards. I like gw2 for the combat system and fighting and I play it to prove that I'm worthy to have a spot on the ladder.. to me rewards = inventory wars and that's not fun for me.

im not saying 3v3 should be the main game mode. im just saying it shouldnt go away and instead be its own que. the check box idea like strong hold is the best option and im all for that. make it ranked and have a ladder, o man that be so good dont you think? it will expand the competitive aspect in two ladders of fun and exciting challenges, allowing more options for a verity of players to play.

What about conquest though? It's been around since day one. You don't think that conquest lost its flavor and jolly feeling after 8 years, 8years everyday not just every tuesday? Well It most certainly did for me.

3v3 is new it can't "lose it flavor" as you put it for at least a couple of years.

Also every Tuesday is taco Tuesday for me for years and I can tell you it's one of my favorite days of the week and will never get old no matter how many Tuesdays there are.

This problem can be solved with a in game voice chat. That way all people can have access to communication for strategy and be on equal terms. nearly all competitive games have a in-game voice chat it's about time gw2 gets one for it's competitive game mode. If it ranked it honestly a competitive aspect and shouldn't be viewed any differently.

You don't want the PvP community to become smaller? As it is right now I did not participate in the last 5v5 conquest season and I most certainly will not in the next one. I'm done with conquest after 8years. So if ur worried about a dwindling population keeping only conquest will also do that. Cuz I'm gone again once this 3v3 awesomeness is over.

Both please!!!! Some times I want to duo and now some times I want to trio, so both options would be great

I don't have a lack of interest in ATs I have a lack of interest in 5v5 conquest. Any new game mode to PvP is a welcomed one.

You want to remove communication from a team based combat game? You got to be joking.

This guy gets it.

Guild wars 1 has copious amounts of different kinds of PvP. You werent just there to play 5v5 conquest for 8 years straight. I'm not going to go into all the different game modes it had. Once you discover it your self, I'm sure you'll be asking w-t-f happened to gw2.

Comet is not that strong at all and if u can't dodge 1 skill that doesn't use los then think about every gaurd teleport, thf teleport, rev teleport, then think to your self that your idea is maybe alittle silly.

Happened to me once tonight out of 15 games. Game didn't count. I just took a forced braked is all.

IV gotten 3 sunless weapons unfortunately, I deleted a toon a long time ago that had the 3rd chest on it so now I only have 2 sunless weapons the axe and the dagger.

I wish I could get it back but o well.

I'm sure anet will blab about some garbage on this coming tuesday

Has anet ever released metrics of there data after a season? At this point in time there's nothing that anet can do to ever get me interested again as I have been in PvP. I just don't care for there lack of games modes and PvP development any more. 5v5 conquest can not get me to play this game. I'm completely done with it after 7 years.

Anet is a bare minimum company. And this promise of more frequent balance patches is proof of that.

I'd take a dps meta any day of the week. It's really the only skilled playstyles there is. Being able to read the situation and execute a good burst while being able to be bursted you're self but avoiding it because of well times dodges really is the only fun way to play for me.

Having endless stream of sustain and condi spam is no fun and it's certainly not exciting to watch.

In that first game I won 2 points. I decided to play another, I lost 16 points. I don't care if I have decay or if I'm against bad people. Wining 2 and losing 16 is so discouraging I just won't play anymore this season. And probably next as well. I just don't care to play if my rewards are going to be in the single digits and my loses are in the double digits.

What's the incentive to keep playing for you.

Me personally I love the combat systems and the 1-9 tab target dodge system they created. But after what 7-8 years of incredibly poor balance and neglect such as one game mode for this long I just don't care to play this game everyday anymore or every week even once a month I just don't care.

What keeps you guys playing?

I took a brake from PvP for a while and came back to play a few games with a friend. Since I haven't played in a week+ I had maximum decay putting me down to bronze.

No wayyyy. Burning has always been the strongest dps condition that I can remember and I'm sure there a chart out there that can explain and show that burning is actually the best damaging condition. Instead of just word vomiting that burning is bad OP how about you do some research on the wiki to prove your claim?
