If the new expansion...

[TheBravery.9615]

If the new expansion have no meaningful WvW content, would you still buy it?

 

Meaningful as in new mechanics / objectives, new maps, wvw traits, ways to kill other players etc.

[jokke.6239]

What is WvW?

[ASP.8093]

New elite specs are WvW content.

[Galmac.4680]

The last lite specs were already WvW content (see scourge). But I'd buy it.

[Doug.4930]

You started the question with "If"

 

First time?

[primatos.5413]

Stopped playing for the moment bcz of reasons..mostly balancing issues.. still way too much nearly unkillable clown builds out there.. if this problem is not fixed until xpac release and there is no new wvw content i won't come back i think..

[aspirine.6852]

I kinda expect a Canthan themed map for wvw. EBG would be nice, only if they do not gimmick it up. But most likely would be green borderlands. I just hope they involve some veteran WvW players to have them playtest the map. It should not be a disaster like the desert one.

[diomache.9246]

Make EBG an underwater map.

[Solanum.6983]

Yes, I love PvE content too so I'd buy it just for that.

That said, If there's no meaningful changes I probably wont be playing WvW much anymore. It's fun but the lack of updates and even balance changes makes the game mode stale.

[Dawdler.8521]

What even is this poll? Everyone knows that WvWers are really into PvE.

[Threather.9354]

We already got _"expansion level content_" with icebrood saga. Ofc we will buy the expansion, the Icebrood saga elite specs weren't enough. B)

[TheGrimm.5624]

If it has elites specs, yes.

 

Edit: Don't take it the wrong way, if that is all we got that would be disappointing and not the only thing we would have wanted out a new expansion.

[BeepBoopBop.5403]

If it's not P2W content we know as 'elite specs', then no I haven't even played through HoT or PoF.

[Infusion.7149]

It's probably going to have elite specs and new skills so you're naive if you think it has no WvW content.

[subversiontwo.7501]

It really depends on if Alliances have been released before the expansion or not, or whether anything else has been implemented that has made me want to support the developer again. I do not really care about any other content or additions to the game.

 

It also depends on whether whatever completely optional changes that are not actually optional (like the Warclaw) are added and whether I can stomach that or not. On top of that it also depends on the competition on the market.

 

The poll has no maybe option.

[Raizel.1839]

Yes, I mainly play PvE.

[len.7809]

OFC

You know, new xpac = new spect = op af = unbalanced game like it always has been = if you don't follow the meta, the meta gets you.

[Naxos.2503]

To be fair, the majority of WvW runners are still technically PvXers, they're not tied to just 1 game mode. Even the dedicated WvW guilds likely indulge in expansions once in a while too. Only grizzled vets who go online to get their daily carnage fix couldn't care less about expansions and whatever else Anet releases (and that's perfectly fair). Would be nice if they could throw a bone at WvW though. And by that, I dont mean WvW content should be added to the expansion (if we have to wait for an expansion each time, it's a really bad precedent). I'm still hoping for Alliance to be done -before- the expansion, even if it's looking less likely by the day.

 

 

 

If Alliance doesn't pop out before expansion or even during it, I think there's gonna be a legit riot.

[Zizekent.2398]

I love PvE, PvP and WvW, but the last 2 game modes really need some love, specially wvw

[Beorne.9248]

I'd like to see some new playable races and classes in the new expansion. They added new classes in GW1 in almost every expansion. The only new one we have gotten since release is the rev. Think it's overdue. Since the new expansion is going to deal with underwater content why not make a underwater bl that incorporates some new siege and skills. Legendary and ascended water weapons could be a new thing as well.

[Caitybee.3614]

I actually thought about this earlier. They should add a 4th team, make their color yellow so it's nice and bright for us to see, add a 4th home map for them and expand the EBG map to be one huge "four corners" kind of thing. I think we need additional maps anyways, something new and fresh.

[LetoII.3782]

Only reason i bought the other two was the power creep

[Justine.6351]

Poll needs idk option as I don't know without knowing what that content is.

[Thornwolf.9721]

1. Gonna take way more then E-specs alone to sell me the expansion as the last one was horrible.

2. I want something fresh, I want WvW to get some serious love.

3. I want something to blow me away, not more of the same.

4. I remain unconvinced the story will be good or that it will be more than four to five big maps that will be abandoned much like PoF in a couple of months

5. frankly I want more guild content.... and guild halls

Then dont have an opinion and move along? I mean if you dont WvW, care about WvW or want WvW then reading the post should tell you that this post is not for you and has nothing to do with what you're invested in. No offence meant to you but PvE and PvE players don't cater or care about PvP or WvW and honestly likely want us gone, so why should we even open up the option for them to speak in a thread directed at us?

Id love that BUUUUT as they've said in the past, they dont and haven't and won't consider it and its too much work.. Likely the expansion will be more of the same

But he asked our opinions and for me that depends on what is added, not if/if not.
