So why is the PVP playerbase not want to try anything new?

[Kaliesto]

I don't know who these people in the PvP playerbase are that don't want anything new. And with PvP playerbase I mean people who actively enjoy PvP and play it regularly because it's intrinsically fun (like raiders raid because it's fun).
I think people who only do FL roulettes are not necessarily representative of "the" PvP playerbase because they play for the once-a-day reward and don't actively play more FL, CC or RW matches beyond that for the fun of it.

I can promise you that within this active player pool there are plenty of people who would love something new. Anything new. And we constantly give the dev feedbacks in the PvP sub-forum.

To be fair, sometimes that feedback can be moderately successful (like the devs making much needed adjustment after the 7.1 rework and people participating very, very actively in providing feedback) but in other cases we are completely ignored, e.g. when we suggest new game modes or give ideas for improvements of existing game modes, fight design and/or class design.

So it's notlike we don't want anything new, nor is it like we don't let the devs know we want anything new. Most of the time it just falls on deaf ears.

In that case the Roulette needs a adjustment to start including Rival Wings.

While we're at it, they need to put back the PVP Maps they removed over the years (lack of variety is kind of destroying me here).
