Moirg.7560 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 seriously........? Unbelievable... probably could have rebalanced PvP in half the time it took to make that stupid cosmetic glider which contributes absolutely nothing to the game.

everyman.4375 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 You want the team working on gliders to work on the balance ? That's not realy their job, you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they would do a worst job at it tho. It doesn't take a spectial team to check the forums and change balance based on qq, which is what ANet does.

Dawdler.8521 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Sure the same team working on the glider can work on PvP balance. - Mirage can now fly No other changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't balance according to what the forum says, it would most likely lead to even more balance issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balance updates are almost always mid-season so that puts us at a balance patch next week. Or potentially the week after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anet: You all complained that the real Mesmer is hard to see, so Mesmer is now allowed to glide in PvP. This way everyone can see the Mesmer if he/she is moving from point to point.

Gringo.2163 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 When my wife saw the glider she imediately opened wallet, so "that stupid cosmetic glider which contributes absolutely nothing" statemenit is wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to agree with Everyman, (I would prefer the design team, the balance team focus on their responsive duties instead---do the right thing ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yannir.4132 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Yeah, having visual artists in charge of game balance sounds like a great idea! "Oh Prime Light Beam looks soooo coooll! Let's buff that! #fashionwars2" Carry on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wife buying that glidder doesnt improved QOL of the game at all in any aspect of the game and it most certainly doesnt add anytging new since there are like 50 glidders already. That glidder or any other glidder has no impact on my pvp game play at all. And for pve i woulsnt buy a glidder for that as well cosmetic improvements dont deserve my money when they dont improve the actual gaame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alcopaul.2156 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 the game will balance itself if ALL (AS IN ALL, NO BUILDS LEFT BEHIND) build combinations has been put in metabattle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biff.5312 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 There's a lot of focus on the wrong thing here. The OP isn't suggesting that it's an either-or situation in the sense that literally the same people could have/should have made a balance patch. He's just saying that resources are being allocated to trivial things when there are more pressing issues pending. The glider is just an example. I'm sure he didn't mean that it specifically is the reason for the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowdy.5107 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 The reason why anet ignores all the crybabies is because it already is pretty balanced. Just because YOU cant beat a mirage with your current setup and class doesn't mean other classes and setups cant either. learn to ADAPT and if your class is just a bad matchup. Then avoid them on the field. its just that simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This just goes back to how non game developers aren't game developers. A lot of resource is specialised into role. Saying stop doing X and do You faster doesn't really work because if it.

People paying real money doesn't do anything! Well... other than give ANET workers a paycheck so that they are able to do their job and add the quality of life patches, give us more cosmetics, balance patches, and more content. But yeah, not a single thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
