New Wvw Map
i think the islands look awesome
if they could implement guild halls to look like floating islands that come together during fights, that’d be pretty cool, although i doubt it will happen
Kiel Replacement Movement
It is not a attempt to do with mindless zerging. It is a attempt to remove massive que lines while at the same time allowing people to play WvW. Mindless zerging is not easy to remove and they are still working on ways of getting rid of it.

Mess with the best, die like the rest.
Most servers can’t fill four maps, why do we need a fifth?
I’m excited about new terrain and possibly new objectives or gameplay, but populations are too sparse already, this will make that problem worse.
It’s a good question, and one we talked about a lot. Above all else, our main raises behind adding another map (which can overflow and create multiple copies of itself) include:
- On many more populated servers in NA and EU, there are queues, this would allow people to play the game they want at all times.
- We want to do things in the future, this map included, that will help get more people interested in WvW. We need to make sure we’re not just making them sit in a queue when we do that.
- The game is going to be launched in other parts of the world, and on launch in NA/EU we had queues for WvW on just about every world. In some of the largest gaming parts of the world say, China for example which we’re in beta for right now, we’re seeing massive responses from guilds that make NA/EU guilds look tiny. These guilds all want to play WvW on the same world together, this map will help facilitate a better launch in new regions, as well as the much larger guild alliances you find in the east.
Hope that helps a bit! We know for much smaller worlds this may seem like it’s no big deal, since you never deal with queues anyway, but the gameplay and experience should hopefully be fun (and different) such that it may attract new players to WvW. It also opens up opportunities for us to do other types of experiences in WvW across all worlds that may help bolster smaller worlds populations as well.
Looks like in addition to using this to relieve queues and test new ideas for WvW, it’s also being launched in anticipation of the China crush.
I’m hoping that these massive guilds can help push for more guild management tools for everyone.
Its called a test server in other games.

But they do have test server its just real game testing are playing them vs the cheep way of letting there players test them.
