Gauntlgrym is completely broken

The luskan raiders absolutely dominated every phase of the event, and with 1 minute to spare we lost the support of the catapults and the giant, despite having already won them. WTF? With the frequent disconnects I didn't even receive credit for participating and thus couldn't even queue for the T1 dungeon, despite placing in the top 5. How was this even released?

Edit: To clarify, we had already WON the support of the catapults and giant and it was taken away from us as the mine cart phase wrapped up. It wasn't as if there was a sudden turn of events...the game was OVER.

    They released something that wasn't tested?! NO WAY! Surely you must be mistaken.

    The pvp map is zergtastic to say the least, which removes pretty much all the fun from it.

    It'd be nice to get into Gauntlgrym... but it seems to require your guild to have an allegiance... and I cannot find, as a guild leader, any way to actually set my guild's allegiance!

    It doesn't make any sense at all. We won both the pve and the pvp portion of our games, and yet we received no rewards. It appears the meter at the top functions to monitor all active games. So I lose overall, despite winning both the pve and pvp portions because the other players in my faction, in the other games lost? Id like to see a 20 vs 20 gauntlgrym rather than this faction vs faction nonsense. Dont punish me because other people dont win their matchs

    from what it looks like the opposing faction can still finish the pve side objectives after 1 side wins them and then obtain credit for completing them making their side win phase 2 and guarantee them access to the t2 dungeon. this just happened on beholder which forced my side to lose the entire thing after us completely dominating every last objective. learned about them completing objectives after we did though talking to one of the guilds we were up against that said they could still complete the pve stuff after we won them

    TBH... it wasn't tested well in the test realm since nobody can seem to get any game started.

    This happened to us as well, nice one cryptic.
    I'm always friendly and will be happy any of your inquires via pm!

    Again, thats poor design. You shouldnt be able to queue for pvp or start that portion until the previous portion is completed
    I am on beholder as well quickkill, and we destroyed gg trashcans in pvp, and won the pve as well. but we lost somehow. Silly design

    TBH I am surprised that there haven't (yet) been any rabid PWE fanboyz here screaming that it is all okay since it is only one day since 'Open Beta' finished.....

    Probably the pricing on ZEN store items. Other than that.......

    We tried to test it... lack of people in the test server so there's no proper way to test it. Most people just login, take a quick peek and log out.

    Well lets use this opportunity productively and provide feedback to make some changes. What I need clarification on is why, if I win both portions (pve and pvp) do I lose overall? I enjoyed the 20 v 20 but this design is not working

    The problem is winning doesn't matter anyway. The T1 dungeon is better than the T2 for farming coins and who really gives a <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> about RNGing the T1/T2 loot tables and then having to roll against 4 other people?

    Formula for 40 coins per GG:
    AFK till PVP queues are available -> do PvP match (will only have time for one) -> afk till dungeons -> fit in as many T1s as possible

    I don't think that's the intent of the design..

    Your right but again that seems to not work as intended. The T2 should be the better option. Winning should matter. And if I win both the pvp and pve I should win overall.

    Seriously people... just report all the bugs you find in the bug report section. I think the devs do read that section than in the general discussion.

    You can report that too and tell them what you think will improve the game.

    Test your content and fix it before releasing it would be a nice improvement...
