Guild Wars 2

Hello everyone! Newest newbie here, I don’t know active this forum is, but I’m going to give this an hour. The game has been downloading all day and I’m super anxious to play.

I did some searching and I saw a lot of people recommend Tarnished Coast as a server and that some actually RP on that server. I also think some of my friends are on that server (although they don’t play GW2 anymore).

However, it is FULL and won’t let me make an account there. I retried the game client a few times and it’s sure as heck full.

So, question: is there another server that also has some RP to it as well, or are there some servers that are actually sub servers under Tarnished Coast? Or in general, is there a particular server that has a lot of players and is generally helpful and recommended for newcomers?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I’m sure this won’t be my first post so hello everyone and thank you in advance for any help!

Server’s only really matter for WvW as the Megaserver system combines all servers in a region (so EU or NA) in PvE. For RP purposes join another NA server (I’d recommend Northern Shiverpeaks – some really cool people), then fill you friends list with TC RPer’s and join an RP guild. You’re more likely to end up in friends/guild instances so you should still be able to play with the TC folks.

As above, the game has Megaservers. https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/introducing-the-megaserver-system/

This means that everyone in PvE is thrown together on the same maps. Unless you want to be doing WvW on a particular server then any server in a data group, NA or EU, is fine.
