Guild Wars 2

I love the new maps, I see great potential for roaming and also the think the oasis event everyone is complaining about has amazing potential…

This oasis event is epic, It gets players out of towers forces zergs to split up and capture the power cores making small man play vital and bringing fights to the center of the map when this event is on (Who would possibly complain about this?)… My only complaint is that there is only 1 trade in point (There should be multiple, just so a server that heavily outnumbers the others cant leave half of its players defending the exchange point to effectively lock out any other server from completing it.)

The main downside to the desert BL’s at the moment is the sheer amount of space thats covered for such a small player base. Even on T1, these maps are dead, It almost feels as if one of the new BLs is triple the size of the existing alpine borderlands. Even at T1 at offpeak hours, these alpine borderlands were dead and not very populated.

To organize the new desert BL’s a bit more they should be time gated (EBG still available 24/7), very similar to EOTM approach (Where only X borderland is available for 2 hours or something). When 2 hours is up the next borderland gets opened for 2 hours. Rinse and repeat. This will definitely centralize the players more on maps, bring a lot more action to the new maps and improve over all game play.
