Guild Wars 2

Instead of allowing guilds to be split when they try to transfer to servers, it would be beneficial to guilds and servers to be able to see their current population of each server and the population cap in the server selection menu. This would help large guilds know in advance whether or not they will even fit on a server, and allow servers who are lacking population to be able to see how many players they need to recruit. Numerous games currently allow players to see the server population prior to selecting that server and this would be extremely beneficial for WvW players to be able to do the same.

For those who want low pop servers, they could see exactly how low pop they are, for those that want high pop servers, they could find a good fit for them. This would help resolve quite a few of the issues created by the current selection options. Some new players come into the game and are recommended terribly low populated servers and then think the game is dead when they wanted to have massive amounts of people to play with. This would take much of the dissatisfaction out of it for players that select a server and then find out it is not what they were expecting at all.
