There is huge skill lag on EBG all evening already in the SFR / Deso / Piken matchup. Maybe it is time to get some better servers finally and not these potatoes from 2012 (or older)? Especially since you basically merged some servers now and save money there.

One can only hope for this.
Isn’t it fun when you are in battle, pressing numbers but nothing realy happens?
But to be fair … 450 players are on that map, so lagg is expected. FPS lag, ping lag, and skill lag.

Since when was the limit for EB raised to 150 players a side?

The limit is somewhere near 60 or 80. It was originally planned to be 150 a side but they quickly proved the servers couldn’t cope with that so they lowered the limits. At one point I think it was as low as 60 (remember the culling farce?).

So basically 240 MAX and the servers crash people out. the joys of d/cing in a large fight then looking at the 80 man queue..

Lag seems to have got a lot worse again recently, it’s probably all those extra retaliation calculations the servers need to do now more are playing melee again. Restrict it to one per second per toon and it might make the servers function better:-)

It’s very annoying dieing due to no passive heal on an ele and not being able to cast fields or doing my job in a fight. Makes me want to main guardian and spam 1..

It is maybe 70 people per side. But I dont want a reduction in players per map. The large amount of players is what makes WvW fun. I want that Anet invests into some proper multi socket Intel Xeon CPU servers and not this stoneage toasters.

LoL! (btw multi-core CPUs maybe?)
Anyway, I don’t think merging servers like this was the right thing to do. I’m not saying revert this change, but maybe we should all consider if it’s overall better now? Coz ANet sure don’t look like they are scrabbling for new hamsters.

According to my immature name I seem not a big loss for the community.

Merging servers has no effect on skill lag in EB.

You could argue that if bringing back many players who have not played WvW for long time is worth the trouble, and yes, it is. If the options are no players and no lag, or many players and sometimes a lag I will always pick the last.
