Guild Wars 2

Anet team really needs to work on Megaserver. I know it just came out and is being polished, but even when they just announced it they sounded so confident that friends, guildies, and party members would be put together on the same map. When we went to do our guild rush today, one team went to one map of Hirathi, and the second party went to another. Considering we are all of the same server, same guild, and all partied together and many of us on friends list, it was very strange to see half the team didn’t arrive at the same location. If this did happen during a bounty we would have spent precious minutes transferring people over.

There is also the issue of having your bounty killed and having to wait for it to reset due to another guild with megaserver going on. Either the mechanic of guild bounties must change or every week guilds will run into problems.

Are you positive the maps you were on were megaserver enabled? Some maps still do NOT have it yet. If you are ever unsure, visit the group finder. If the world section at the top does not have a (…) at the end, then it does not have megaserver yet.

Definitly megaserver because u can see there were many guilds doing the same guild rush as us. Plus this was Hirathi Hinterlands, a low level area so no reason for their to be an overflow. We were put in two different maps and we decided to move the other team before starting by letting the team that got separated to party with someone on the other map and then right click to join.

Yeah I see what you mean now. Logged in to verify and you are correct, that zone is flagged for the megaserver. If I had to guess, it was grouping people, but it was also filling a map that already had people in it, so ultimately it was filling it to the max with your guild, but went over the max and made another map. Since it doesn’t seem to make you change maps when you are already in it.. yeah I can see a huge oversight here. This needs to be fixed asap. Like you said, this basically makes bounties a hell of a lot more restrictive.

Very, very few areas aren’t megaserver enabled, actually.

(though if Divinity’s Reach is Megaservered, I’m quitting the game. <.<)

Divinity’s Reach is definitely on megaserver- we had a huge discussion about it last night in DR- people were saying what servers they are from and I assure you it was not GH.
Saw about 2 people from my actual server.

I was missing megaserver a lot in Caledon Forest when we made an effort on the Jumgle Wurm with just 5 players.

I’m pretty sure Caledon Forest is part of the megaserver I don’t know what I’m talking about.

If it was overflow? It would say “overflow”. They were on two different maps, therefore it is a megaserver map.

Now then, please stop being a fanboi apologist. Anet can and should answer these questions themselves.
