Elite Missions Too Restricted: Please Sign this Petition! Every vote counts!

/signed

How about back to the favor system, which, although bitched about, makes perfect sense, in my opinion...
Guild Wars, just the name says "PvP"

Yes, paying for Factions content is the same as paying for elite missions, tell me how this isn't so.
When you buy a game, you pay the developers to be given access to their product. As Factions is the product, you have paid to play the elite missions.

This sort of whining has been around since the FPE...
There isn't any reason behind, just bitching...

But, unfortunately, the two coincide...it is a good comparision, but, slightly off, in my opinion.
However, this one, people get access for PvPing, where in Factions, most people will never get the ability to play in the elite missions.

Signed.

Please don't buy this game if you aren't willing to compete in it.

I knew this was going to be aq bad idea and posted as such a long time ago. Please make the access less restricted. The top two alliances only? Come on. It would be better to set a faction cap on the missions and allow any alliance with such and such amount of faction to access the missions.

It doesn't really, if people want access to elite PvE lands, then shouldn't the logical choice be to unlock it somehow during PvE? I think the current solution is a great way, PvE and PvP, two possible ways to unlock the elite missions.

So back to the Taiwanese player, since I paid for Prophecies, I paid to play FoW and UW then? So I have the right to bitch to ANet because no one in my region is good enough to hold Halls? No I don't have that right, and neither do you people. (I'm not actually a Taiwanese player, just clarifying that)

Rukmedes post covers this point. The purpose of Elite missions is not for EVERYONE to play them, simple as that.

Aren't yall missing content by not PvPing?

Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, I post this as the leader of The Lotus Alliance. We have held house zu heltzer for only 2 days thus far...and in my honest opinion we have no problem with taking it back and holding it again.

To any and all that ask we will make the kurzick elite mission, Urgoz's Warden, open to all who request it from us on our forums.

As for changing how they work...I enjoy the way they are...but I offer this as an option to everyone none the less.

To all players who want to keep elite missions the way it is now, don't post in here. Go make your own petition thread please. Your voice will be heard more cloud and clear.

Its not like you pay and you cant get in, its more like you pay, but you need to be permit to get in.
Its like go to a amusement park when you are a child, I remeber how pissed I was when I found out I am too short for the ride, but am I against it?? No, cause its safty, it did force me into drinking milk.
If you want a pcgame example, howabout Diablo 2?? If you dont have the attribut, you cant equipe the item. I dont know about you, but I never see any player there jump up and say "XXXX Blizzard"
If you played pso, they set limit to the difficulty you can get in. Ultimate difficulty is lv 80, I believe.
I dont see any problem with that.

No, my guild is no where near those guilds that hold the Elite missions, and I have no friend in those guild, and I want to enter those map too.

I would agree if you ask for reset period, or some other system that make elite mission less about grinding, but I stand for my opinion that Elite Mission should not be a give away.

why i understand why people are angry and bitch, im sure than most of u havent beaten factions yet, and you just heard something about elite missions and how u need to be in some leet alliance in order to enter..

well, why dont you people just play the game, get a friend from that alliance and enter with him/her now and then.. if you cant, you can always pay some bucks and do the same.

if everyone had access to them, they wouldnt be elite would they...

We can PvP if we want to. With the elite missions, we may not have that choice. Good to see the alliances are letting people do them, but all it'll take is one elitist bastard for that to change.

So, we can conclude that skill equals with belonging to an zerg-alliance that can grind most faction in shortest times and hold the 'elite'. So this zerg grinding makes you 'elite'?

Okay.

I'm sorry, wasn't this thread only for those who AGREE? There are plenty of other threads for people who disagree, even though they're wrong.

Mod, Please delete the post of every person who has dishonored the request of the OP and brought the arguement into this thread too. Let it just be a petition thread as it was meant to be.

"I agree that elite missions should be made much more readily available to all players of all levels of dedication."

Guys,

This is not a dicussion thread. Please either /sign with info (or without) or not. Do not use this thead to dicuss this topic. Only to sign if you approve.

As much as I agree with the people disagreeing being wrong on this topic, this still is a DISCUSSION forum, not an online petition system with hotline to Anet offices.

The whole '/signed' culture here is stupid in my opinion, but whatever..

A petition thread in a forum will only get a few hundred signatures, really, and will never be an accurate representation of how many people want a change. Thats why a discussion makes more sense.

And by the way, I'm going to agree that that amount of grind your guild can do is not a very good way to judge skill level.

The whole concept of Elite Missions is borked to begin with. I can see maybe having to unlock these missions through personal accomplishments (i.e. your character has to get master level for all factions missions, etc.), but to make it so that ONLY members of a single alliance can do it (or their guests) is just not a good idea.
