One concern with the new BL
They wont’ be available at the same time. They’ll be rotated. You’ll have to wait for these borderlands to be up to play them. I suspect hard core WvW players will continue to play the other borderlands, as well as the new ones.
Actually, in the REZZED preview, the Devs stated the current WvW maps will be retired, and they aren’t sure when we would see them again.
So, there may be no issue with ‘no one wanting to play the old maps’. /shrug
REALLY. thats fascinating, I had no idea they planned on completely retiring the old maps. Thats fascinating.

Well, Eternal Battlegrounds will remain the same.
You’re completely right. They tried to mitigate the damage by removing the old BL when HoT goes live, but you can expect some HUGE queue times. You’ll have time to become a god at Stronghold, unlock all the specializations and masteries, explore the entire jungle and finish the entire story before you set foot on the new BL.
That might explain why you don’t have to map wvw for world map completion anymore
