Add map or pop. increase
They need to split servers.
Add one or two new matchup trio.
I Just want a solution so I don’t have to wait to play my game seems reasonable if you ask me.
not pop increase per map since servers cant handle a full que. instead add a map if more players do wvw =)
Time to add the 5th bl =)

Adding another borderland sounds interesting. Perhaps one designed to take advantage of mounts would add some variety to WVW.
Another thing that would help is allowing pips to be awarded without having to hang around in map for 15 minutes while the participation winds down.
Time to spread out. Plenty of room on existing servers. No need for more maps, just less bandwagonning.

If only there was a specifik map for people with little experience, or those who want to test demo characters and for people stuck in big ques.
Oh wait….EOTM.
If more people that belong there would go to EOTM we wouldnt have these ques.
why would u need population increase? just because beta is only for pvp/wvw doesnt mean most servers (none without linking) have queue on every single map out there on normal days.
Hmmmm tough issue….
If only there was someway to get off the overstacked servers and be more of a part of the solution instead of part of causing this problem in the first place ….
hmmmmm
if only ……
Once the new content hits the queues will disappear. Everyone will be out and about in PvE-land. That will last for a month or two, and then maybe populations will go back up to what they normally would be.
Besides maybe if the WvW population on the overstacked server(s) sit in queue for long enough they’ll destack.

Right, BG has been top tier NA for what now, 3 or four years? Seems like they like sitting in a queue, or they figured out which guilds get to play which day so that there are no long queues.
With new content on the way it will be impossible to play with each map q 30+ on reset.
My ideas are add another map or increase the population size per map
We’ve said this before.
The links need to be undone and a free transfer given to anyone who wants to move to any lower (tier 4) server.
actually many ppl will be in PVE first months,if its gonna be as last expansion at least
Yes very good idea. We are already outnumbered in prime time and we sure need more outnumbered maps so we get more pips.

I see what you did there BG player.
Another New Map would be nice, perhaps with some Underground fighting. However, its much easier and better if they converted EOTM to a ground map, and made the results in the first (1st) map count towards the scores.
Increasing the map limit would be bad, especially with +30. We already have trouble with lag once we hit the current map limits. The map limit is also a balancing factor to avoid 100+ vs 50 or so.
I’m not personally against adding a map (another copy of EBG most likely), but it has to avoid the same trap that every other one of these ideas falls into. Being Static.
Any change/fix to the entire population/server/map aspect need to be dynamic enough to adjust itself. So we don’t end up with another map for total of 5 maps, and then people takes a break for expansion, vacation time, everyone goes back to school etc. And we sit with 5 maps, and only enough people for 1-2 maps per server/link.
Similarly, a dynamically changing Map-Limit could also be interesting.
And there is always EotM, which will always have an open slot for anyone that wants. That is why it is there after all.

Yup, but that only further displays the problem. WvW is a game mode that is fun when each server has roughly same amount of people online at same time, at roughly same skill level, and roughly filling the maps.
So if everyone goes to play PVE for a month, WvW will be horrible for that same month, as for ex, neither server can field more than 50 max in prime-time. Just as it isn’t fun when we got (for ex) 600 players per server, 200 of them sitting in queue’s because of a beta weekend etc.
(This is why we can’t have nice things...)
