I really don't get the hype about GW2.

Because... you want to play PvE, not PvP?


I want that PvE has an effect on PvP. Right now PvE is completly senseless.

I respect your opinion, but I'm sure the vast majority of players disagree, it was considered a big problem in WoW that PvE guild players could use their imba PvE items to mess up PvP, and obviously the other way around, that PvP items were used in PvE content.

PvE has a significant effect on WvWvW. You only get max level and gear in competitive/structured PvP.

This was the way it was in WoW, and it ended up as PvE having a huuuuge effect on PvP. People were often forced to raid just to get an item to help in PvP. I don't want that at all.

I was just watching the latest GuildCast (not that I've seen any others though, lol, I just saw it endorsed on the GW2 twitter) and the host of the show just plugged a voice chat system called C3.

Apparently it works just like teamspeak and ventrilo, except you can set up servers with unlimited channels for free. I wonder if that might be of use to us here? Here's the link to the site, anyway - http://www.downloadc3.com/communicate/

PvP in Guild Wars has PvEvP elements.

PvP and PvE will never be the same.

PvE affecting PvP is PvP.

PvP affecting PvE is called World-PvP and is PvE.

Agreed. Keep them seperate and let people play what they want without having to do the other. I don't see anyone could possibly argue the point that this is a bad thing.

That's exactly what I want. That's the main reason for me that WoW was so great back in Vanilla. I loved the idea of killing and taking the weapons and gear of the strongest bosses in the world to become a demigod and crush everyone in PvP...

I got the impression most people (not just me) hated it when blizz changed it to PvPing for PvP gear

Overall I'm just hoping that PvP remains fun, easily accessible at all times and balanced.

I think most people on TeamLiquid have come from an SC or SC2 background, where they've been used to some of the most balanced PvP available in any game and, as such, apply that experience and those standards to other games they play. I know I do. Whenever I see a game that gets it wrong it turns me off it completely.

PvP and PvE, if there's going to be any semblance of balance and competitive viability, need to remain separate. You should not be able to grind gear outside of structured PvP that gives you any form of advantage over other players. I think Guild Wars have not only done the right thing in separating the two, but they've gone a step further in providing WvW, which actually manages a compromise. Given the amount of people that will be in these WvW battles, the small gains to be had by one or two people having better gear, will be cancelled out by sheer force of numbers and teamwork.

If you want to just roll people with ease all the time, then you shouldn't really be playing any form of competitive gaming, as the whole point of it is (in most cases), to offer a balanced challenge; matching players of equal skill.

You can do that in WvW.

The point of structured PvP is for players who are super competitive. On a competitive level, everything should be balanced as much as possible to maintain a level playing field. That's the point of structured PvP.

If you want to get sick gear in PvE, but be able to use that to pwn n00bs, then go WvW.

One of the most beautiful things about GW1 was that they even created different versions of certain skills for PvP and PvE where it was impossible to balance. And although I don't think they'll be doing the exact same thing for GW2, I get the impression they still have similar intentions in mind.

They do indeed have plans to do so if they have to. Nothing is out of the question for Anet.

Ya, this is a great part of GW1. I wanted WoW to do it for so long but for some reason they never did. Instead PvE warriors would QQ about their lack of raid dps so blizz would buff them and then all of a sudden fury warriors are 2-shotting people in PvP. Made for terrible balance.

We should organise some way to add each other to the guild as soon as the beta starts.
