Guild Wars 2

Manually Adjusting Glicko
Anet, please stop manually adjusting glicko. There was no reason for the addition of glicko to JQ, they are a T1 – T2 server anyways so the manual glicko addition has no effect. As for the DB glicko addition, DB is now labeled as a dead server, everyone left once it was de-bandwagoned. You can’t pump glicko into a dead server to bring it back alive, its just not gonna happen.

WvW Maps
With the addition of the desert borderland, it adds an unfair playing ground. Many people to only play GW2 for WvW have a deep dislike for this map, causing people to either not defend their home BL (if they are red), or simply never raid on the desert BL. Since the addition of the desert BL, it creates a sort of unfair advantage for the server that happens to get the red borderland. The map is typically left undefended the majority of the time since big guilds refuse to go to the map.

I believe that the best solution for this problem would be for another WvW poll on keeping or removing the desert BL or simply bringing back the Alpine.

The current problems are.

Huge Population Imbalance
Can be fixed by making oversatcked servers destack. Easiest way to do this would make Overstacked Servers have a Lowered Map Cap….

Massive Server Lag

This has a lot of different variables contributing, the massive amounts of AoE Damage/Healing/CC/Conditions/Boons all bog down servers.

Giants blobs fighting contribute.

Horrible coding could also be a contributing factor!

Possibly outdated server Hardware and Software.

To a lesser extent

Horrible Class Balance
This is mainly due to the ridiculous amount of AoE/CC and Boon spams some classes have. Which contributes to Massive Server Lag…..

When it comes to population imbalance, opening the most stacked server Blackgate, was NOT a solution. In response to Anet’s decision to manually open Blackgate, members of the WvW community took it upon themselves to stack another server (Maguuma) in order to fight Blackgate, or else they would simply roll over everyone.

I definitely agree there is a population issue, but finding a solution is incredibly hard. Sadly it’s something that Anet will most likely not solve

The easy solution is to lower Overstacked Servers populations Map caps so they are Queued constantly that will make players transfer out..

This is just another band aid solution which again benefits Anet with regard to gem sales. Merging servers is the only real solution.

It’s a good solution.
