Maybe so. Although if the system IS automatic, and is just based off population metrics, (which, remember, is play hours not actual bodies) then the information was there.

ArenaNet Staff Gaile Gray.6029 Posted December 22, 2018 ArenaNet Staff Share Posted December 22, 2018 On another note, please understand that my questions in the early minutes of this issue were intended only in a positive way. I was not quibbling about semantics, and I certainly wasn't suggesting that there wasn't an issue. What I was doing was honestly asking for clarity about what might be a bug report versus a disagreement with the changes... because we've all seen both, and I truly needed to know what was happening in those first minutes. And yes, it became very clear within minutes that there was an issue, but I only was able to arrive at that conclusion with helpful input from forum members, for I don't have access nor the knowledge to read the linking code, and could not make a full assessment on my own. So, again, thanks for the reports and thanks to those of you who were patient with me as I asked the questions I needed to ask *even while I had already escalated the issue to the devs.* I have your best interests in my mind every day, and if you feel my comments somehow came across wrong, I'm very sorry.

Baron Oakley.1539 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 @"Gaile Gray.6029" Thanks for your attention to this last night. I know from my own work that everyone's in a real hurry to get home for the holidays at this time of year, so I wasn't surprised no one around to fix the problem and I'm glad you were at least around to engage with us and inform others of the problem. Just an idea - maybe relinking should be done at the end of odd months instead of even? It seems the alternative would be to have the December relinking done two weeks early instead of just one - I feel like the two last Fridays in December are just going to be bad timing for most calendar years.

I think what may be helpful in the future is that there is a clear set of processes in place for verification/validation of what's supposed to be vs what is actually is. If someone is doing something like relinking, it only took players a few seconds to figure out what the actual links were, and they verified it as soon as what the intended list was supposed to be (which was like an hour+ delayed after relinks, so no one knew if this was really intended or not). I have pretty high confidence whoever is doing the relinking has plenty of tools infront of them to verify it actually happened as intended (the API for example). One issue I see is that since last night I am assuming a lot of players probably already transferred to/from servers, so the previously intended link setups are likely not valid anymore? Are links going to be re-calculated for next week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed - phrasing feedback sensibly and respectfully is much more helpful to get a problem resolved. Sarcastic, accusatory and/or abusive feedback might be dealt with eventually (if you're lucky) but it takes longer, because the developers or support staff responsible for reading it have to work out which parts are real, and which are just the customer behaving like a bell-end. Additionally, unhelpful forum posts are a significant reason why Reddit is popular amongst game devs these days, as it's perceived to offer more relevant feedback - much of the nonsense just gets downvoted to oblivion.

Vova.2640 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018  thanks anet, very cool. On a slightly more serious note, leaving 3 our of 4 tiers in wvw broken for an entire week is unacceptable.. once again anet spits wvw players right in the face.

Etria.3642 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Psh. Last week sor was getting +0. I didn't even know that was possible. Granted that was because people left and not Anet but it was pretty yikes. I'm betting it won't be new matchup generation either just swapping out the two servers to where they should have been.

blackgamma.1809 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 it took 50 mins to confirm the bugged re-links also this thread should be locked because it talks about current match ups. or are we just gonna pretend that this is the first time that a bug has been addressed during a match up thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackgamma.1809 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 @"ThunderPanda.1872" so what kind of technical software development knowledge do people need to know to log onto gw2 account linked to effected wvw server? you didn't need to be an software engineer to diagnose and obvious problem. there was other ways to check the issue. and the least effective was taken people become trolls when the bar gets lowered to a unacceptable standard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
