sounds like neoteo is trying to get into an arguement with someone.

he seems to be comparing guild was with realy life. real life is not balanced but GW is a game and for a game to be fun it needs balace

Example:

hypothetically, if guildwars was real warriors would be at a severe disadvantage because the elementalist could easily just fry them to a crisp but since guildwars is a game and games are ment to be fun there has to be balance otherwise noone would play a warror for fear of getting burninated and mage vs mage with instant burnination would be horrbly annoying and combat tactics and player skill goes out the window

but, since guildwars is a game and not real guildwars needs balance so its more than just player twitch skill that determines the battle it takes intelligence in working a good character build, skill in planning your role in battle and tactics in knowing who to attack and when

yes its unbalenced cose white always starts

that doesnt mean white always win

and doesnt mean starting is the better option

it depends on who is playing
so what exactly is balance for you?

For me balance is: if 2 players are up against each other and both have the possibility to win. it solely depends on their personal skill and nothing else. Like chess.

So can you explain what do you understand under the term 'balance'?

Chess is 100% balanced. Everyone starts out with the same number of pieces that do exactly the same thing.

Also, going first is not always an advantage (if it was even an advantage to begin with )

you guys cant help it , the word balance as you ...

dont need to argue anymore , my point is out there ...

as i said it , there is no balance in real world , or in games , there is no balance in nature , its a word that only works in teory.

its my point of view , i dont want to change the world , just make people think of it.

if we folow this line of thinking , gw will always be balanced , since everyone gets the same game out of the box when buy it

are you trying to be funny?

I asked you a question which is very important to the topic. So please answer it. But I guess you won't, because it happened before a lot of times. Sometimes I think you aren't here to discuss things, you are here to state your opinion and then block everything other people say...

Duuude, so anyway, my friend and I were trying to recruit people to hunt Rotscale, and we got 5 to join so we took a henchman (Alesia duh) and one guy was like "you taking henchman?" and dropped as we zoned, so we had 7. Some tard rezoned us and so we took another hench but as we did 3 guys left. So we had 3 guys and 5 henchmen, and as we zoned out the last guy left. So we went back and took another hench, and burned and pillaged our way all half-ass to Rotscale, who we owned without so much as breaking a sweat. What the hell was up with those losers who dropped because we took Alesia? Aren't people at Temple of Ages supposed to be prepared for Underworld?

Oh, also, chess is, for ALL intents and purposes, balanced. The Guild Wars metagame isn't nearly as balanced, but it also can't be, since there is a nearly infinite number of builds to take into PVP. Should people stop caring about tuning skills and abilities to even out the "tiers" of builds? Only if they like a fighting game with 10 characters more than the same game with 20 characters. >_>

He's not talking about guild wars, this is the off topic thread. He has got to be talking about the real world. Like animal conservation and global warming. Don't hate.
