Duh

But it's a possible thought...it get's people DoAing, and makes FoW harder to access.

What is the point of this change? Passage Scrolls were THE answer to the issue of one region holding favor most of the time. The only problem were their drop rates.

Couldn't they have just upped the drop rates of Fissure/Underworld Scrolls and left the mechanic alone?

GWEN = more titles

I can't wait to get on the game tomorrow and see how this is shaping up... right now sleep is calling.

At least they made it universal. I'll give em props for that.

LOL WUT?? I'm guildless >_>. Back on topic they should just create an alternate way of getting uw/fow scrolls thats fair. Not far fetched ideas like this 20 title to max for favor. Don't even think it works properly either from what I saw.

So it gets people away from relying on PvP to get teh favour... and moves it towards the lamest elite area ever devised that 99% of the players don't wanna waste there time on.

not very soon

Maybe I'm crazy... but you already have to ascend to access it.. couldn't that be enough?

Shmanka · Aug 10, 2007, 01:49 AM // 01:49

This system has flaws... huge ones.

Essentially 20 people need to gain favor... 20 people need to get a max title within hours. I think this is completely ridiculous.

Make FoW and UW completely open in my honest opinion, if your even trying to implement a system like this at all. Ecto's have already skyrocketed to 7k. Now either you have the entire world at a complaint, or the entire world at ease. This system actually causes frustration, not many people grind to have legendary survivor, at least with HoH favor there was a system that gave dedication as its reward.

I play on the Euro Servers and I am living in North America. Europe seems more dedicated to the game then America was. Often enough for the past week America has only gotten favor at about 12 EST. Which is ridiculous.

I am not switching servers back just yet, and I know im being skeptical but like someone already pointed out. If the length was extended to say 10 more minutes instead of 3 I would like this system alot more. Also the amount of required max titles to perhaps 10? Either way I find 20 more then redundant among both pvp'ers and pve'ers. PvP players are at the hands of PvE now which is the exact same problem as before you cannot gain a max pvp title they contribute nothing.

this is to increase access not limit it further see ENSIGNS post

If increasing the rate of access is what they wanted, they would have kept the old system in addition to this. Anet just shot themselves in the fo... no, head!

Seriously. How many months did it take to come up with this utter tripe of an idea?

How about we give it ATLEAST one day for testing before we all complain maybe? Call me crazy, but I bet Anet is testing it themselves.

Croco Clouds · Aug 10, 2007, 01:53 AM // 01:53

I work as a game tester (not with Anet), something bothering me in this case: is the sentence 'The Test Event has ended.' a DEBUG text bug/issue or not?

The Severity will 'B' if something like that happened in my testing lol

Silly Warrior · Aug 10, 2007, 01:53 AM // 01:53

I'm confused and I read it at least 3 times now...

I mean I get it but....I can think of a number of ways to have made this alot easier to understand.

I think a large reason this system was implemented was because there were a few regions that rarely got favor, such as Taiwan, Japan and Korea.
