Guild Wars 2

I was prepping to do Tequatl last night with TTS and… Mmmm, yeah they had a bit of an issue setting up multiple maps and additionally the players didn’t know where to go, who to join, etc etc etc…

In GW 1, ANet, you added in there the concept of multiple Districts to all the towns:

Lion’s Arch District 1
Lion’s Arch District 2
Lion’s Arch District 3
Lion’s Arch District 4

Wouldn’t the Magaserver be better occupied by us players if we Districts there to help direct us in major events like Tequatl?

The megaserver was meant to put low population maps together so we didn’t have “dead” maps anymore.

Districts would undo that by making “dead” maps again because the major guilds would tell everyone to go to “X” district, which would likely not be within the first 5 districts, to organize the events. This would also cause some guilds/groups to “snub” everyone that doesn’t play their way and go to a different district.

It would also allow the farming bots to hide again. The best thing that happened with the megaserver was being able to find and report the bots that were hiding on “dead” maps.

Except districts were formed as population went up. If there are 10 players in Lion’s Arch, there is one District. If there are hundreds of players, districts are added. Megaservers are doing this now. The only difference would be the ability to choose a district. Having Guild Wars (1) like districts would be beneficial to the RP community, Guilds doing guild events, and boss events. Guilds could have people “go to District X” to do events. It would save time trying to ferry everyone to the same instance.

It will never happen, because then people would be able to see how many people really are in this game.
