GG Anet, although you shouldn't have made favor pvp based in the first place.

I will forgive you for making the Europeans cry.
Its not just Europe that doesnt like this system. Alot of people dont. Alot of people do but dont single out 1 region because its not true.
I am American and I dont like this system one bit.

remember, this is a global game. i'm in america and i couldn't care less. but those people in japan, taiwan, or korea barely get 1 hour of favor a week based on the old system.

It's actually nice to log in for once and not see "Europe has the favor of the gods" and now I can actually go into the FoW/UW during the day time rather than having to wait late at night!

I have no idea what the OP is talking about, America seems almost in constant favor since the new system was implemented.

Whatever it is now, is infinitely better than it was.

Now PvE people control favour. As it should be.

Basicly Europe controled favor all the time. Now the europeans are mad because everyone gets it. Its better this way but I wouldnt mind if the message that said who won in halls would also say what country they are from.

I really don't get people. We have favour almost all the time, and now I can do FOW/Uw just about whenever I want, instead of very late at night. I'm sick of relying on PVP'ers.

I have no idea why any country outside of Europe complains, because they have access to favour now for a extremely extended amount of time per day.

~This now stops PVP from affecting PVE even more. PVP gets first dibs on skill nerfs, and they shouldn't also get dibs on when people can access Elite PVe areas.

Well the system seems to have a problem, but I do not want PvP to govern access to an elite PvE area. If this new method was to be equal then why has America held favor for more than 24hrs now?

If anyone noticed in the updates, all territory changes were reset. So if your region does not have favor you can move to a new one. I've recently moved my 2nd account back to America since Euro never has favor.

What in the heck are you talking about?

There are no more regions. EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE either has favor or doesn't, all at the same time. If you're on an American server, and you don't have favor at the moment, neither does Europe, Korea, Japan, or anywhere else. We're all in the same boat now, and that's a fantastic change for the better!

If you see that you have favor constantly, then everyone in the whole world is happy along with you, because they all have favor constantly.

Are you off minds.
I stopped playing the game cause anet nerfed everything made faction skills a huge debate. Loot Nerf whoops Hard mode ı meand to let everyone enjoy the game. Oh so non europeans said yipee. LOL?. Let say you get favor 3 hour a day non europe people. Now no one gonna have favor. 20 people max a title?. I know guild ward have many players yet not many people care or track titles. Only titles I was maxes were lb and sunsperar and I have defender of kurzick

Other titles then lb and ss are extremely hard and not even 20 people max them in a day. So what gonna happen? Ecto PRICES ARE SKY HIGH. If this doesnt changes or titles like
Legendery Armin saberlin uest completer
Legendery Togo Quest compelater
Titles introduse that will take 5 minute to max which will screw up maxed titles title will make this good idea.
Non EUROPENS THAT ARE HAPPY: YOU GONNA GET EVEN LESS FAVOR
AND WHY PEOPLE STAY OUT OF EUROPE? I was in american servers when I started and when I heard favor system changed to europe. SIMPLE

This post is confusing.

First off, you do know that Favor is no longer seperated by region, yes? That means when 20 titles are maxed by anyone anywhere in the world, the whole world gets favor for an hour.

Also, this stacks. If twenty more titles are earned, then another hour is added to whatever remaining time there is.

I also did a favor check 3 times today with time inbetween of 3 hours: We had favor for at least an hour every time I checked it.

Keep it like this. First people complained that Favor was affected by PvP, now when it's changed, they want the old system back.

I'm European and I like this update.

I dont play the game no longer cause anti farm perpective of anet and all nerf made me bored of the game.
So you say this way its more time with favor?
How many player play guild wars.
I more then 2 million I guess and less then 3million. Thats prety good if everyone is tracking titles. But they arent. How many of them playing ht game long enought to get max titles. %95 of the communite cant have enought time and patience to max titles. So you say every hour 20 people max titles. I would be amazed. Ad I dont wait at game any longer I dont know ho logn it takes some people to ax titles.
BUT IT SHOULD BE EVERY 5 MINUTES CAUSE IF TAKES LONGER OLD WAY WAS LONGER TIME SPEND WITH FAVOR WHEN I PLAYED(I mean prime playing times for european time zone. mornin 10 night 1 I dont remember cant getting in uw)

Almost every time I have logged on in the days since the update...the world had favor...I always check with the /favor command even if I'm doing something other than farming there.

/NOTSIGNED

because control of access to PvE areas should stay in PvE players hands. The system is not perfect and should be changed...but I would rather have THIS system than a PVP controlled system any day of the week.

IMO access should be on an individual basis...earn your own favor. If you don't have your own favor you should not be allowed to be in a group to go to UW/FoW (allowing people to group to get access would still result in people looking for a group that has favor instead of getting it themselves and would be no better than the world favor system). Now how should people gain favor? New Rank in any qualifying title (past a certain level for some titles, like a minimum of level 5 for Sunspear or level 3 for Lightbringer) or (give people the option to farm titles or complete the quest) finish a specially made pve quest to gain favor. Gaining favor would allow access for 3-6 hours (or whatever the anet team decides is better for the favor system).

The quests I suggested to gain favor would be either a single quest to gain favor designed solely to gain favor. Or it would be a single quest for each realm, designed for that realm (ie designed for that god). Completing the quest would allow favor for 3-6 hours or whatever anet feels is best. These quests would not offer any reward except favor. The monsters you face would not drop any loot except event loot like victory tokens.



The reason the system should be changed to individual favor is because otherwise some people are just ungrateful SOB's who sit in their chosen realm of the gods access point and complain about the system...complain when the world loses favor...and complain when the world is about to lose favor...meanwhile they do absolutely nothing to go out and get favor. They need to be forced to get their own favor. They want something for nothing. They need to do a bit of the work instead of just sitting waiting till the world gets favor. Ideally the world favor system is the best system...everyone works to get favor...but it just doesn't work like that...some people are ungrateful SOB's who want to have things handed to them and want to do ZERO work to get access to elite areas...so that needs to change. Individual favor is the way to do it.

Just to be clear I am American.

You know what's funny? The past two days when I've logged on at 6 am EST, we've either not had favor or <5 left. Not only that, it takes a long time for people to get 20 maxed titles after we lose it in the morning. And on weekdays, especially once school is back in session for most people, I'd say this will only get worse.
