so just returned to Gw2 after leaving for a good while, come back…hmmm my server ‘’Eredon Terrace’’ people barely run dragons and world bosses other that Queensdale train… ok il go guest on Beastgate…hmmm same thing is happening here…onward to NSP…hmmm well would u look at that nothing’s happening.

The issue here is Server populations are dying Anet, Before releasing more living world u better start combining sum servers together or your living world is gunna go away in a Dying game.

New people join this game and wonder why they stay other than Spvp…cause that’s pretty much the only aspect that’s still quite alive, every night I come across newbies asking me…whats this event for? why cant we kill this boss? and only answer I can give em is, get to 80, go to WvW or stop leveling and do Spvp cause that’s the best social experience u can get from Gw2 now please Anet don’t let this game die out

Server populations are fine. In case you didn’t notice, a new Living World just came out. Try going to Lion’s Arch and look for people.

My experiences are that the game is extremely far from dying. People have just moved away from the content that most new people are entering.

Combining servers wont do anything to fix these issues if these are even issues. I don’t think it’s a case of the populations being too small at all. It is probably more the second thing you touched on in your post. The fact that people are playing content other than what you want to do. They need to address those issues and give more incentives for players to play the other content again.

Since when did this business of being a hero become being a business?

I think he’s saying this, yes. LA right now is a fantastic place for a) loot/money and b) leveling alts. I play this game every day and I can tell you I’ve seen no population decrease and also everyone is doing LA event right now. Go check that out.

Either way, if you feel the game is dying and do not enjoy your time, move on to other things, nobody cares.

People are doing LA because it’s temporarily available while those dragons and such are available forever. Besides, LA is way more fun than half the garbage auto-attack-to-death world bosses. The servers are more alive than ever, they’re just congregating in one place because it’s new and shiny.

Spvp…cause that’s pretty much the only aspect that’s still quite alive

stop leveling and do Spvp cause that’s the best social experience u can get from Gw2 now

You forget C) people are grinding the new ascended backpack either for the stats or the skin as well as the new items that give the halo/Horns. These are not as easily obtained as previous items have been from holiday events or living stories. So they will take time for people to get which means they will have to spend a lot of time here, thus away from dungeons etc.

On top of that there could also be a D) people farming enough of this new currency to trade in for candy/zaitaffy to get the Halloween Prince Mini or the dragon wings.

So in summary OP, yes people are attracted here for the time being and there are various reasons as to why.

If I managed to decipher your reply right (guessing english isn’t your first language), yes i am saying that people are prioritizing LA over the world bosses that will always be there. A huge opportunity exists in LA, and a lot of people are capitalizing on it.

Also this is currently not after a server reset. Most people would have already done the world bosses for their daily chest. Then as others have stated they are enjoying the new content. It really is fun stuff, I have been on my low level Mesmer.

so just returned to Gw2 after leaving for a good while, come back…hmmm my server ‘’Eredon Terrace’’ people barely run dragons and world bosses other that Queensdale train… ok il go guest on Beastgate…hmmm same thing is happening here…onward to NSP…hmmm well would u look at that nothing’s happening.

The issue here is Server populations are dying Anet, Before releasing more living world u better start combining sum servers together or your living world is gunna go away in a Dying game.

Sorry, I find it hard to believe you guested to Blackgate and no one was doing a world event, for certain events espically Jormag, Shatterer, all temple events, I would occasionally guest to blackgate, and it doesn’t matter what time of day I pick these events there are always a zerg at them, same goes for Jade Quarry, Mag’s can be good aswell for world events depending on time of day,

If you only came back to the game today or this week, then everyone will be farming the event in LA which runs every hour, as it requires a lot of farming to get some of the rewards etc.

The amount of players I see is seriously insane. Go look at WvW (especially at EoTM) and the new L.A, there’s like 500 players or so in each map, along with overflows with their hundreds. Times that, at every server.

“server populations are fine” LOL, no they aren’t. Luckily I’m on BG so i don’t have to worry about this problem but majority of the servers are dead and need to be combined

lulz only game that has consistently lost players more than ever is WoW. Merging 2-3 servers and they are still a wasteland… kind of funny how they’ve introduced the in-game store for players which I’m sure will soon include the purchase of lvl 90 characters lulz

Regarding this game maybe you should hit up relevant content like Escape from LA where players are currently enjoying the living story…. I’m sure you’ll find players

I’m on sea of sorrow, that’s a tier2-3 server. I don’t have a problem with population.

I think it’s more of a problem where everyone from low population transfer to high population server. Making the problem even worse.

If you dont’ like to play without people, no point staying on low population server. Obviously you’ll be charged to transfer. That is a problem for some people.

Increase the number of living world events at any one time, spread them out and reduce the size of them. there you now have a lot more people spread out doing different things all day and investigating new areas outside of bloody Queensdale. Also increase the number of Scarlet invasions in the lower level areas, seriously champ farming is the worst thing you can let the new guys do when starting.
