I thought we saw all after the HoM reward was clearly only PvE stuff but now i noticed even new things recently :

- For about 2 weeks, Hall chest Items suddenly disappear for no reason . Sometimes it appears as unclaimed item afetr you lost , but sometimes it doesnt ....
- For about 2 weeks aswell , i noticed too many err7 at loading map and disconnections appearing ( almost 1 each run )... I can't really believe it's due to haloween since it apppeared before too...

Question on it is : Will it be fixed or is it like " Who cares of PvP anyway " ??

- Costume brawl rewards you 5 tot bags , GvG rewards you 50 bags , whereas a very easy farmable PvE quest rewards you 1000 gold + 25 bags ... what is the logic behind that ....
- Costume brawl new system clearly made most Pvp'ers stop it ..
- Now we see costume brawl system , wouldn't it have been easier to apply it to RA by just making 1 point per win ( thus changing points needed for title ) and changing team every fight ???

Again , i clearly understood that it was pve based for a few months now , but seriously , what can we expect on long term? all arenas deleted or ...??

Apparently, there's a reason (see konig's post in another thread) for that specific change to match making in CB.

I haven't experienced any disconnects or errors for at least a year, so I can't share your concerns. There's no reason for ANet to sabotage your HA fun, though.

About the ToT bags, 50 is enough and nowadays gvg can be farmed if you want to.

PvP rewards are repeatable, PvE quests are one-off. (or are they?)

Sucks about the hall chest items, hope they fix that bug.

- Hall chest bug? Have you tried e-mailing support? The might know more then people on this forum.
- The servers from GW aren't superb. Lagg and DC is very commen for the last almost 6 years in both PvP and PvE. Nothing new you might tought it can happen first making it look less horrible then now wich will make you more and more frustated over each time.

- 1) GvG is these days an easy freaking farm aswell. 2) Events are supposed PvE related with story's and a small PvP mini game. I am surprised GvG even gives you ToT bags with items that can only be used in PvE area's
- So the new system makes the Elites quit cus they can't have a higher winning change by manipilating matches with syncs etc? BOOHOO I wish people like that just quit the game so others can have some fun to. This update was amazing. Maybe there are some people in the dev team that haven't lost there brain and love for the game.
-I purposed exactly this system for RA before in a other thread and still think it's the best solution. I will see if I can find the link. But if I remember correctly someone said they won't do it because it will only fix some RA propblems were syncing happens in more formats and that they won't do it then. I will get the link here.

As chicken said, email somewhere useful about chest bug.

Holiday event lag/dc's shouldn't be a surprise. Before the event i personally haven't noticed any increase in dc's, nor have i heard others complain about it much but it may be more associated with HA so i can't comment futher.

50 ToT bags is plenty to be frank, anymore and it would further encourage abuse by smurfing which would make it very unenjoyable for those just giving it a go.

Costume brawl "fix" isn't how i'd have done it, and it's peeved a fair few who enjoyed getting good teams (stop thinking the complaints for this are all about sync's). But, it's a holiday event and this hurts far far fewer than it's made it more enjoyable for as far as i can tell. Consecs are still plenty attainable and the arena's still fun.

I like how you mention problems but don't suggest any changes.

Ok, while your mentioning of a bug in halls is rather important, the basis of this thread is essentially a giant conspiracy theory that ANET is killing PvP by introducing glitches or that they are going to delete the forms of PvP in the long run.

That's insane and you know it, and this thread can only breed more insanity. If you wish to create a thread reporting the bug in Halls in Game Bugs, feel free. This thread, however, is done. Also, feel free to contact support about the bug(s). They typically will fix something as serious as you describe.
