New player here!
It’s not too late, very easy to catch up in this game, in terms of gear/leveling.
Choosing server, is only for WvW.
megaserver, basically means everybody shares the same maps, regardless of server. (this means there are few empty zones..as with all the servers combined, there’s bound to be someone there.)
[It does not combine EU/NA ]
First it is not the same game as GW1, several on forums have not gotten this even yet.
Second mega server is the games name for creating instances of each map based on population instead of which server you are from.
Third with the way the game is set up you cannot be ‘too late’. Set some goals, see what you like and do it.
Thank you for the prompt responses guys! Just another curiosity of mine.. between the EU and NA servers, which is the more populated one?

Not really sure, I think NA but since no figures are released no one can say for sure. It also depends on what time of the day you want to play.

I’m on EU and it seems populated enough. But for me the choice was mostly one of which would give me better latency.
Don’t pick based on population. They’re both well populated, pick the one close to you, because of ping/lag.
Welcome to the game.

Hmm, i’m actually from South-East asia, would the EU server have a better ping for me?
