Now it's dead enough that shitters have been throwing in a team of bots/second accounts of 55s with vamp weapons. Dead arena is dead, so they get matched with each other for over 9000 matches resulting in a bunch of free title points.

Pity that terrible implementation ruined such a promising format.

As if this doesn't happen anywhere else.

Revelations · Jan 02, 2010, 01:38 PM // 13:38

I'm quite aware it happens everywhere else. Just not yet heard of it in codex, so figured there might be some people out there who care. Also a (baed/thinly veiled/wrongly located/lazy etc.) attempt to ask Anet to fix their RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing game.

It's arguably easier in GvG. From about 9-10pm PST to when euros wake up and start playing, there are no guilds in the 1150-1250 range that play, so every single match will be champ range manip. In codex there is still the off chance that some random team will join and you'll actually have to play one out of every 10 matches. It was exactly the same way in TA, and I'm not sure which arena is more dead, the old TA or the current codex, so I can't say which is easier.

Yes, it has happened everywhere, but I think people didn't expect the novelty to wear off the arena this fast.

Let's face facts, Codex was a good idea that was implemented horribly.

So why did I expect this to happen ?

Good point.

Please Close Codex.........bring back TA

I think it's a shame that they released codex to try to fix TA's inactivity problems (which results in manips) but it pretty much ended up that way in less than half a year. I don't see the point in deleting TA at this point.

I'm guessing it also died because they never tried to fix it or anything.They just introduced it and ignored all complains about EDA and shizzles

At least in TA you could get some of the better RA teams and still get matches.

^ I miss TA, but they wont bring it back. They already set up the codex title (which isn't worth it unless you're a bot or in a guild that grinds it) and they didn't even recycle the HB arenas (as they said they would :/).

4v4 doesn't work well in GW anyway, but codex was just terrible.

Let's face facts, Codex was a good idea that was implemented 3 years too late.

I don't care if they bring back anything in its place or not, I still think it should be deleted cause it's that bad...

The Savage I · Jan 05, 2010, 01:10 AM // 01:10

GM's said they will not bring back either TA or HB ever, they "maybe" put in an AT system for codex but they said it would take a lot of work. However Codex is just to bad to try to revive there aren't enough honorable PvP players in this game anymore

An AT system for the Codex arena would be hilarious, but awful.

They really need another mAT, but with the current arenas to choose from....it would have to be the Codex...which is bad.

God, I forget how forsaken PvP is in this game now.
