Is this how weekly matches should be?
It’s like this for just about every single match up… The system is horribly broken. It’s not fun for the losing servers or the one that’s dominating.
It was A LOT worse on my server, 200k+ to 60k+ for the other 2, including my server. Etenral battleground was horrible, they controlled the entire map and were literally farming us at out only waypoint. This included a 15% hp buff and 150 point stat buff to them for holding 3 Orbs. Worst "PvP’ concept ever. Maybe give the losing team the buff, or a similar buff to even give us a chance to fight them back, being heavily farmed at start waypoint is stupid even more so when they have buffs assisting them.
Way it stands now, which ever team has the biggest zerg team is the one winning. But to zone in and be farmed at spawn waypoint…no thank you. Not even close to my idea of fun.
Unfortunately the entire game seems to be about zerg more than anything else, whether that’s PvE, PvP, or WvW
NA servers with high Oceanic population = GG. Everyone quits when they log on the next day and everything is taken and completely upgraded and when one faction owns all 3 orbs which totals to 15% HP and +150 to all stats, there is really no way to win.

I made this a big point during the beta and and a lot of people told me to to QQ less. Guess I was right.

go join sorrows furnace (but not Rall. Seriously Rall why are you all such jerkfaces?)
We here on aspenwood have most of the map by about 7am EST but by 9pm EST we’re back down to 260ish points. So Sorrows Furnace at least clearly is just not in the kind of mood to give up.
What are you Oceanic haters suggesting? Just lock them out of WvW entirely?
My server actually has very few Oceanic players; our top three WvW guilds consist pretty much entirely of East Coast Americans, and our server dominated every match except one with Henge of Denravi and Jade Quarry, which remained relatively even throughout.
Don’t blame region for your server’s lack of motivation. And skill.

Uh…
I see you havent faced a heavy oceanic server yet.
It has absolutely nothing to do with “skill” or “motivation”. When you are doing well before bed, which for example Gate of Madness was… then you wake up @9AM EST and everything is in Crystal Desert’s hands, what exactly are you spose to do?
By the time you get home from work to actually start turning the tide around, they’ve gathered thousands of points for free.
Oceanic players, quiet simply, run this game on the NA side. Just like NA players run it on the EU servers. We’ve seen enough examples of players playing PvE the keeps to know this. A simple look through all the server scores currently working shows you crystal clear evidence.
As to what should be done… you could do a number of things honestly.
Limit the number of people in each WvW map to the lowest realm’s population numbers. Cut the point generation during each server’s “downtime” by 50-75%. Whatever, dosent matter.
Bottom line is: This has been a issue for anyone that has played games like this. One simply has to go look back at Shadowbane (5AM bane times anyone?!) or DAoC (which admittedly had a few more checks and balances in place then SB or GW2).
Week-long WvW matches just won’t work. We’ve already seen from our daily experiences that it boils down to that half of the time.

Who is hating? I just think people outside of NA should have their own servers.
