First off HoH gg having the hero bug out and not being able to run to the center to cap it. I have seen personally 12 matches decided by this bug not by the player skill level. Evedently it will happen if not all the players are on the dias when the hero spawns and sometimes a warrior sprinting will bug it if he is following you. Then there is the bug where if you hold HoH the countdown to the next match stays at 0, nothing like wasting 4 hours to get beat by a bug not a team.

THEN there is GvG evedently sometimes when you random everyone in your guild will lag out and get booted. Well apparently you still get scheduled in a match and auto lose to whoever you face. Wow great you just totally wasted a guilds record and any sort of prize you hope to have in the future for a top5. Not to mention hurting a guilds reputation after we won 2 matches in 5 minutes then get bugged and lose 28 guild rating.

This is the number 1 reason why we need a 3rd party league PvP code is trash.

How many bug reports do you think they get? It has been /bugged probably since alpha and definately since a few BWE's ago.

The more the awareness and importance of these bugs is stressed the quicker they should get fixed.

For pvp'ers, what else is there if we can't even play in tombs or gvg? I dunno man, it seems like a pretty important part of this game to get right. I mean, this is about guilds and their wars...

I seriously feel for you tek. Nothing like beating some good teams and gaining 10 points each only to lose 30 to a phantom loss to an unranked team later.

And that HoH timer bug...omg...two of our 5+ Hoh runs were ended that way, not because someone beat us.

GvG+Tombs are the most important aspects of GW from a PvP perspective, it's important they get fixed not lost under a wealth of /bug reports.

I, personally, have never encountered a bug like this or similar... and I've done a fair amount of GvG and Tombs... I'm not saying they don't exist, but they seem like new problems to me.

Either way, let's tone it down... no need to attack eachother over something like this (or anything). Kill eachother in the game, :P.

HoH bug is in the actualy end map. When you camp it for 6 hours you notice these things.

Anyone want to challenge Blood Eagles we will be more than happy to settle it in game.

Hey kids. Here's a bit of helpful advice from someone a bit older. Report the bug without anger.

"PvP Code is Trash".

Uh huh...

Sure it is. Couple of bugs makes this incredibly balanced game with a point to PvP trash in the PvP aspect? Hardly.

They're bugs.

I'm sure they're capable of setting the slate clean on records when they fix it. Until then, fight for learning, fight for the matches that aren't bugged, and generally learn to enjoy the damn game without focusing on the little things wrong with it.

If you're not enjoying it, do what I did with WoW and Lineage 2: QUIT.

It's easy as hell to do. Report the bug certainly, but leave the snitty attitude out of it. You'll get a much better response.

EDIT: To add, I think reporting it here is fine also. They seem to listen to what the community is saying (red dots are back, whoot!). Just leave out the piss poor attitude. If you're angry about the game and think slamming people or their years of work will make you feel a bit better, it's time for a break anyway. Head outside where the sunshine warms your face for a bit.

It is trash what do you want me to say? The pvp code is broke? The pvp code ceases to function in such a way to allow the parameters of GvG to work?

It is all saying the samething.

No, I think all of you did a pretty good job of turning an important issue into flaming and fanaticism. Here is a newsflash for everyone. People can disagree with you without having a negative IQ. They can have their viewpoint and you can have yours. Thta's perfectly acceptable and even welcome here. What is unacceptable is when such talk turns personal. Insulting or belittling others will not be tolerated under any circumstances. And that includes your fellow posters as well as the developers. If you can't handle that, find another place to post.

Stay on-topic and stay off of each other's backs. This is an important issue, a known issue, and one which the more people are aware of it, the better. No one's helped through pointless bickering.
