Guild Wars 2

Tittle says it all, blow up all current servers and start up 9 new servers. I say 9 mew servers because 15 are dead. 12 servers are and 3 are considered dead.

Server linking in theory sounds amazing idea but practically its bad. If a server gets a bad link for 2 months and they are stuck in a tier they dont beling in that server starts to lose players. Look at TC…

Server loyalty is dead. Server community is dead. People don’t care about servers anymore that “server pride” its dead. I think its timr to blow up all current servers and start 9 new servers or 12.

BG is over stacked, mag was stacked idk whats the case with mag now, TC died because they got stuck in t1 for more than a month. I think its definitely time to reset WvW. WvW needs a complete RESET.

Also introduce 1up and 1 down system. People argue that with this system the server who doesnt belong certain tier can get rolled into that tier and get rolled over or roll over other server for that week…. I mean look at current glicko/rng system its kitten. Servers are getting RNG into kitten T3 or T4 and dying there because they got stucked there. Glicko system is dumb. 3,4,5 is dumb. 1,2,3 is dumb. 2,4,6 or whatever was other victory point system anet tested out it was DUMB TOO.

1 up 1 down system is the way to go. Start 12 new servers. #ResetWvW #MakeWvWGreatAgain

Ya anet acomplished their goal of making us not care about servers with the server linking. It probably had other side effects, since not having server pride makes WvW a bit pointless.

Also kitten off with the trump memes. This is our safe place.

You’re right, server linkings dont have any purpose at the moment. Id rather see some kind of permanent system.

Well tbf all tiers have plenty of blobs and people in EU however amount of commanders seems somewhat low, so maybe they should reduce it to 4 tiers instead of 5 or so.

Victory point system seems okay for me to be fair, it reduces the effectiveness of nightcap and doubleteaming which seems necessary. They just have to make t3/t2 keeps way more easier to reset though(like reduce wall/gate hp by 20%, remove watchtower guild passive, nerf cannon damage and/or reduce effect of claim buff by 50%), or the skirmishes are pretty much decided on who owns SM.

So because a few servers are dead, lets destroy the server communities that still live and make new servers! Brilliant!!!

Basicly, its the same thing as trying to solve a zombie apocalypse by turning all the worlds armies into zombies so they can fight them on equal terms. Surely that’ll help.

you voted for rewards remember that

The goal of the matchups is exacerbating a lack of interest in the gamemode.
As has been said before, the official Arenanet goal of linking is “good matches”.

Our goal with World Linking is good matches.

Linkings led to the disappearance (or invalidation) of the ladder and reason to win a match.

The Yaks Bend thread gives the lie to the false notion that server community is dead. If that was true then YB, far from still being “Full”, would have dropped population weeks ago as people transferred off. In fact the same people are still playing because WvW is about defending a homeland if it’s about anything. You don’t just up and leave because the grass is greener somewhere else.

This, however, is entirely true. Good matches are not the same as a good competition. You can have great matches in a sports league but a terrible, dull, predictable season. Except we don’t even have the hope of a new season at the end of it.

If that was anets great plan that’s a whole another level of pathetic. The cost of the player base and loss of accounts was at risk.

Seriously….what happened here? Maybe they are just another MMO to come and go.

Because 2 or 3 servers might still have some sort of communities doesnt mean other servers have communities… Its literally fate of the server if you get stuck in t1 for more than a month against bg blobbing and everything I guarantee you the “loyal players” will end up leaving else. So server loyalty and communities are dead on most servers. Its definitely time to reset and start fresh.

They really need to give power to the players and allow us to create alliances and create a match making for WvW between alliances. Creating new servers will lead to the same problems we have now.

I don’t see the point in resetting servers. If going to that extreme, why not just get rid of servers? this from someone that has never moved their main account form the birth of gw2….

Won’t solve the problem, maybe short term it would seem more or less solved, but long term you’ll end up right where you started.

Best way to explain it would be like this. Take 20 decks of cards, from 10 remove all the black cards, from 6 remove all the black plus the face cards, 1 deck with only hearts, 2 decks with hearts and either one or the other black without black face cards. Lastly one full deck, now try and make a balanced set with equal matching black and red. It isn’t possible, which is what anet has basically done.

Only way to solve server imbalance is to remove bounderies between us and eu and then start fresh. This of course will never happen as it costs to much time and money.

Can always just keep resetting the servers every 3 months, kinda like what Crowfall is planning.
