Fixed it!

But… but then I won’t have a bunch of fans because I’m one of the only devs on my server!

I would definitely like to see this done, but it requires some back-end server work. If I could only clone myself.

Roughly translated in laymans term: likely not gonna happen any time soon or distant future.

you cant really call it “Heart of the Mist” when you have multiple “heart”, where heart means the center.

should call it “Valve of the Mist”

Multiple dimensions or parallel worlds. That is why.

I still really have hope that they’re doing whatever they can to improve the GW2 PvP community.

I think this would give the players a better chance of improving it themselves.

Personally i think it isn’t possible to merge ALL the servers. That would be way to many people… What you could do is:

-Merge half of the EU servers in one instance and the other half in another(of course balance it so that the total amount of players is pretty much equal per instance)

-Merge half of the NA servers in one instance and the other half in another(same)

-If it’s still to many people for “one map”(HOM) you could make 3 instances.

• This way no one will be in a low populated HOM at any time.

-Make two separate instances(IN1 and IN2) that you can choose to join by yourself once you are in the mists by talking to some NPC. These instances are not limited EU/NA-wise.

• This way you can meet with your NA/EU friends

Of coarse there is still the issue that some EU people want to PLAY with their NA friends and vice versa. This is a more complicated issue, mostly due to leaderboards.

You could make it so that people in the IN1/IN2 instances play on “shared” servers. In these instances you are NOT allowed to participate to tPvP.

Just my 2 cents…

I really agree with this thread. We need to improve the PvP community and I think this will be a great way to increase interaction amongst the playerbase.

You have my full support for this suggestion.

How many servers actually get more than 50 people online in HOM at the same time anyways?

So apparently no server has an active Heart of the Mists Community….

Best idea I’ve heard in my life will be bumping this thread daily

Yea I support this too.
Like in guild wars 1, international server 1,2,3… etc..

No please don’t

I log into HOTM so it doesn’t take ages.

Actually, the Jade Quarry’s HoM gets pretty packed lol. Especially during the afternoon and the evening. But even in the morning, like right now, its not as empty as AR (just guested over there, only had 3 ppl sitting around)

So if you want to guest over here, you’ll see its pretty cool

hmm.. maybe this is why I never understood why people always said spvp was dead and empty, because JQ isn’t :/

just looked around me at the very moment, there’s 30 people running about (didn’t count people loading in to run to LA (no one was doing that lol)) — and it’s an early sunday morning, im sure some people haven’t even woken up yet on the west coast

With the new changes to PvP, I hope that this is one that we can see in the future.

I, for one, support this. I really wished from day one that they would have implemented it because, as others say, it feels like I’m missing out on so many others that are playing while the server I am on only has a handful of people. It might also get some more sPvP guilds started.

I also really miss playing internationally. One of the great things about GW1 was playing with people from EU.

I hope the Devs pay attention to this thread because it is the #1 thing I want to see happen.

So is my dream coming true with the Megaservers update?

Your dreams have been realized. Nice work! And grats to Justin O’Dell for figuring out how to clone himself!

Finally! YESSSSSSSSS!!!!!

also please add somewhere for us to sit, my legs are tired

TC has the best HOTM community in terms of numbers of players you can see running around the lobby. TC i think has the best community spread we have a lot of RPer so our cities always have tons of players. also in WvW tier 1.

Better start coding then..

Anyway, biggest reason people play games with friends is because it’s so much more fun. Getting more same-minded people to the mists to play sPvP, then it would create more situations where you make friends that might actively play sPvP, increasing the activity quite a lot.
