So, I’m sure you can imagine, I am on a server that doesn’t have a night crew. Every night around midnight, I log off with a decent PPT rolling… only to wake up the next morning to find out that a small night crew has completely taken over all the maps. I know, I know, quit whining…but, WvW just starts to really suck when you know that a group of about 5-10 ppl are responsible for that servers win every week. I know that over time, the rankings adjust so these servers all move to the top, but its just so painful to play when you are undoing the workings of a small group that is playing at 3-5am. So…should some of these servers that have a large non-NA presence be moved to EU? I’m not suggesting that there be a nighttime cutoff either…but maybe an increased time between ticks for PPT during the wee hours?? I guess I’m just trying to think of a way to make night capping crews not so overpowered. Or somehow discourage the night capping method for winning. I know, I know…just recruit a nightcrew. But, basically, these nightcrews are just PVEing their way to server wins every week (whats the sport in winning without actually having to PVP) Eventually, it will just come down to snooze you lose (literally)

For those of you on a night capping server…enjoy.
For those who are not…meh, hang in there.

When your things get night capped, that means you have something to do when you log in the next day.

Could you imagine if you capped an entire map once and it stayed like that for days at a time? The boredom. /wrists

If you have logged off, like you say, how do you really know it’s only 5-10 people capping everything? Hmmm….

Who needs EotM when you have late night omega train PvD? Choooooooo chooooooooo

Content in this game will always seem
to be faceroll at the high levels, because it
needs to be accessible to the casuals and bads.

You can’t help yourself?

Good idea, because anyone not playing in NA-prime comes from EU.

You can’t stop people playing during hours they can play or prefer to, the only thing is that PPT gained outside of Prime Time is so skewed that as a Competition WvW is a joke with a Score Metric that needs tweaking at the very least.

Also it’s rarely 5-10 people at night, once upon a time Desolation had a small group of guys against 40-50 at night capping stuff back each time the Karma Trains flipped stuff constantly, now we have have the strongest night crew in the EU Gold Tiers.

But its not like people find it fun fighting NPC’s and doors, WvW is not designed to be balanced or fair most of the time though, and it’s not all about PvP – even the combat is basically balanced around the smaller scale of PvP in mind.
