Last night on TC we had a queue for all 4 maps at the same time for a while. However, we were outnumbered by SoR in almost every encounter I was involved in for the time I played.

It got me wondering about the map limits again and I don’t know that we’ve ever seen an answer from ANet (at least I haven’t).

I’ve seen the number 500 total players per map floating around here and there. So the question is, is this map limit 166 players per server? Or 500 total players and whatever server gets in first has the advantage?

Does anyone know for sure?

I’m sure they intended to be equal to all servers, cause i had the same concern in the release of the games. I agree that sometimes it looks a lot different though.

not really sure. i think it is suppose to be 166 per team. However i have heard stories of people having Ques times. then when they get in they have the outman buff. so there might be a bug in the system.

note: these are just things i have heard. i have never seen any evidence of it occurring.

This happened to me back in October. It’s another thing that makes me wonder about the limits
