DuoQ and No more PvP ladder Titles from S13

I guess one of the major reasons to do this is because they want to stop wintrading. They are making it more casual.

 

I still think this is just the easiest way out. Maybe it will help a bit and reduce toxicity, wintrading and stuff, but... I doubt it will be helping PVP in the long term.

 

Anyway, time for troll builds!

People who play ranked don’t really care about pips stuff or golds, and why someone should tryhard to get top 1,10 or whatever in ladder if the next season ladder is resetted and not even a title to say “hey, I did good”

 

Why you decided that? For wintraders? So for those 20-30+ people the whole community have to renounce to rewards like ladder title or any other reward which could be given with ladder positions?

 

And let’s not talk about the fact that those people who got them wintrading will still have their titles while new people or those who still aim to get them legittimally can’t do that anymore

Well sadly it is you who can't read "the current plan is the remove titles next season"

Will there ever be another way to acquire these titles or will they be like the planned (?) server-exclusive WvW titles?

FINALLY, thanks ben and anet. And to all those ppl who complain. NOONE gives a shit about titles or rewards. i just wanna play with a friend and not in unranked. PvP isnt competetive so there is no need for competetive top 50 or top 25 rewards. They dont mean anything anymore anyways. Or do you think anyone has respect for top 10 title? i dont even knowit and it doenst matter. Its not an achievement anyways. so TAHNKS anet to bringback duoq

Yeah, the titles are almost as worthless as the ones from S1-4...

 

But: When you didn't care about the leaderboard, why didn't you play unranked with as many people as you would've liked? Were you only there for - oh my gosh :scream: - the rewards? Sacrilege!

because unranked you play vs everyone who trolls. or ppl who jsut started playing the game. i watned to play rank for decent enemies and rating... but since s7 the seasons are trash tier anyways, so i stopped caring for that. but i still had my hopes up. if the game had quality matches most of the time i wouldnt even mind a soloq. but it doesnt work with the super small population of gw2. rather have somewaht ok matches with a friend. but yeah unranked is just even worse quality than ranked.

 

personally i would bring back dynamic queues as well. the game is jsut that far away from beeing competetive at this point. and no ats arent an actual alternative for 2,3,4,5 pp lto join up and play together. the time frame you have is very limited. you cant just hop on at t hesame time and play together. tahts what makes multiplayer games so enjoyable. that you can play them together

‘What’s the point of doing ranked PvP anymore’ posts are incoming such as rage from people who took this ladder (based title) system seriously. Basically now we would only play for a rank which is visible for a few weeks, then reset. Happy times.

 

@"Fideles Erbstück.7382” totally disagree with you. Pvp is about kitten competition and although there are some cheaters who won their titles by win trade, still there are many good players who are well-known and respected by the community. Titles are meant to be an incentive, it’s just a bad thing that ppl exploited the system. Remove those titles and ban the accounts for good would have been a way better scenario than this.

So i was already stepping away from rank a bit but now i'm not really investing into it at all lol, If i wanted to win gold or find a way to earn it quickly it wouldn't be with Spvp. We have a different game mode that offers a much faster way to earn gold and skin for the characters.

 

Ya'll need to figure something to out because I know for a fact leader-board staying as it is wont even matter because it was already a joke and I'm sure it's gonna be even more of a joke now.

Best news in a long long time... Im soo happy no longer punished for playing with someone in duo and not worrying about T2 plat!

Not sad to see titles go as well... too much bad reputation at this point they have with all the underhanded actions from top players in past seasons.

Exactly this. Now there is no reason for people to not play troll builds in ranked too.

Yes, I don't think you watched NA scrims yesterday in Chaith's stream but that should be the goal of ranked, fun and competitive games between good players and I think this is a good step.

Titles lost their value long ago when ppl started to exploit the system and Anet did nothing about that, maybe they could add new badges with cool icons since the ones we have are terrible, but I personally don't care for titles or anything to be "respected" by people I don't even care or know.

 

I don't know what will happen we shall see but at least we got a change if this fails then Anet will need to do something else but we can't be stuck with the same system forever, maybe more people will leave or more people will play, nobody knows yet but I really think this is a step in the good direction.
