Guild Wars 2

I hear it alot of how many servers are actually empty of players and “dead”.
As I see it, the reason for these “ghost servers” is mainly WvW.

How about you combine unpopulated servers together to form bigger one?
Why creating so many servers when you dont have enough players to maintain them?

because if those servers are devoid of players in the world due to wvwvw then forcing people all together will really upset those that now cant get into wvwvw. But then again wvwvw only houses 500 from a server right? Thats a small playerbase, but entire guilds could have moved to said server because of that. Its a complicated matter but if players aint happy with their server due to lack of a player base then you can transfer easily.

Wouldn’t really solve anything.

If you merge servers in an attempt to please the WvW crowd without doing something about the free transfers, you’re not going to change anything, except make it more difficult for big guilds to get into WvW due to there being multiple big WvW guilds in the new, merged server. People are always going to get bored of being beaten by zergs and move to better servers, unless you make it cost something.

As for the “dead” zones in the world, that’s mostly because every last level 80 is either in Fractals, Orr or some other dungeon. And quite frankly, unless you play like 1 hour a day, you’re not going to stay in a single zone for too long due to outleveling it.

And we already have some people who have ran into issues with their servers being full. Not to mention that GW2 had tons of issues with the servers at launch.

I would like to, but that is not happening. ANet will ignore this and keep things as it is. I think they will try to find some solution to restore likeness of the game but probability of is small.
