Belorn.2659 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 This week had the most unbalanced match up I can recall in ages. I could barely even farm tickets since most of EU dead hours only had 1 or 2 camps in total on all the maps that was not ours already so there were nothing to refresh participation. Good to see that the situation is actually a bug. > @"Panicbutton.9426" said: > What a shambles. The most frustrating part about this is that the community had to tell Anet. I find it really hard to believe that a person isn't checking the servers after they relink, just to make sure that one of the most fundamental and important things that happens to servers for the WvW game mode goes ahead smoothly. A somewhat hidden truth, but gw1 and gw2 has a lot of manual labour for things which should be automatic. I hope at least that the outcome of this event is that someone find time to write tests so that they can verify automatically that the linking outcome is correct (assuming that the intended end result are stored correctly somewhere on the system).

It's usually dead around late night NA to OCX time. And yeah HoD was t3 before, but I don't think they move people up a tier on relink week. Whatever tier you were at the previous week is what you would stay at iirc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep the lack of a quick manual check is poor considering how much of it is done manually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When re-links happen, the matchups are based on each server's glicko rating multiplied by a random number in the .7 to 1.3 range. It's not 1 up 1 down like other weeks.

Malafaia.8903 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I've joined a wvw guild 3 months ago and i'm really enjoying wvw. It's sad to see such a critical problem being treated like this. It shows the lack of interest from Anet in this game mode :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Price you pay for trying to stack a server in your favor for wins. I wouldn't mind if they did this again tbh. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swagger.1459 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 http://gw2stats.com/na/matchups/ So the only thing wrong is the actual forum post information. The system can’t foresee who is going to log in when or what the exact outcomes will be, because that come down to the human element. Queues, outnumbered and actual scores are not indicative of an incorrect linking, or lack of foresight from Anet. Reset night numbers are also not the gauge used for balancing match ups, the numbers are derived from longer term stats. I feel like some people just like to complain about their match ups constantly, and are using the forum post mistake as a means to justify their negativity.

Menzo.2185 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 @Gaile Gray.6029 Are we going to have to stay with the relink like this for 2 months? Relink us again, reset the score. We don't care if you do it again today or tomorrow, but PLEASE do it soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justine.6351 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Probably won't link reset before next Friday. Just need to deal with it. If you can't handle it for a week I don't know how you guys survive irl. >! BTW, I am on hod not yb so don't even fucking say it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HazyDaisy.4107 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Honestly, at this point, I don't see simply relinking according to what was planned as the answer. The road map to snaf-uzzle up the plan is already out for everyone to see. Those that were on one of those servers, chose to stay and managed to beat the ques have already gotten theirs and will continue to until it's fixed. The opponents that chose to stay have no doubt gotten theirs through outnumbered. Everyone else has no doubt gotten infused with warm bodies either looking for refuge from ques or trying to tank the plan assuming it would get fixed soon, either way, the numbers have no doubt changed in the hours since reset. The damage is already done, we can't punish people for transferring regardless of why they did it and we can't relink according to the published plan, we need fresh re-links come the new year, perhaps world wide.

Liston.9708 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Transfers weren’t the problem in NA. 1 server got 2 other servers links. Now transfers after the cluster**** is another story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heibi.4251 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Once this is "fixed" maybe they should reset the actual score for the current match up. The imbalance right now is worse than when it was "correct" and is incorrectly allowing a winner to be chosen through this mistake the longer it is allowed to continue.

Brian.1289 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 would need fresh relink because guilds already moved around since last night. Et already appears to be a new choo choo train bandwagon worse then the 4 server yb. Some of these post crack me up says people should be fired welcome to wvw its been awful for years they have 1 guy working on it part time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunny.3891 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 The problem has been reported to ANET, a senior staff member has contacted those employees responsible for WvW. Upset Players should relax until Anet gets a chance to make changes. If this issue is that upsetting to you, I suggest you enjoy something else... complete the Wintersday achievements, watch that movie you've been meaning to watch, wrap presents, eat some cookies or get outside and do something else I am sure they will fix it as soon as they can.
