Guild Wars 2

Taxing in people to maps that are getting close needs to be disabled or at least you need to give people a fat warning that they are about to join a map which will be closed in x minutes. I am sick and tired of getting booted out of maps with no warning and loosing all my map progress and then I am on a map with no people about to fail the meta event essential having wasted a good chunk of my time.

To people who say that you can stop the map closure by filling the map: I never saw this working, so far it was always game over after 60min. The notification goes away after some time but that seems to be a visual bug only.

Big problem is taxi is thing now to play game. Very bad mechanic.

If it were to work then it should be reported as a bug anyways.

You would prefer that people are stuck in whatever map they happened to land in? When that was how it was, people screamed about how RNG shouldn’t determine whether the map they are on is working cooperatively towards the META.

I think the word you are looking for is taxiing, rather than taxing (requiring further payment).

OT…the Devs have stated they were working on some problems with the HoT MegaServer maps.

The notification and door at the lower right corner go away when you waypoint.
Not sure if I’ve ever stayed at a map for one hour after the notification went away (without me waypointing) – so I don’t know whether or not they close anyway – but I’ll test it the next time this happens.
