Guild Wars 2

allstick.1405:

If you seriously don’t want to deal with que’s anymore, go find a server that is down over 200k points right now. You won’t have to que…you can be one of the 5-8 people that dare WvW, and can’t even get enough to get a siege breaker commanders going while there are hundreds of enemies standing just out of range of your legendary defenders waiting for something to kill.

I would trade my uncompetitive server with 0 ques for 3-5 hour ques on a competitive server any day of the week.

We were up 300k on a server last week and spawn camping their exits because we were bored for hours. They had a queue for that borderland. They also had an outmanned buff on players we saw. They were reporting themselves that they couldn’t find more than 20 people in the zone.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/pvp/wuvwuv/Queue-size-data-from-9-14-to-9-18-EU/first#post323670

Here’s the EU queue size data, they can do it for both timezones! If we get something like this going and sticky it for each week then people will know where to transfer to if they want to be apart of a W3 focused server instead of a low pop PvE based server and where they are most needed for their timezone. Let’s get the queue size data up Mike!!! Someone else Necro it so it gets noticed!

Any chance we can get an update of this information? I’d be interested to see what the queue times look like since transfers have closed.

Pretty please this.

Seconded, would be nice to help put a rest to the “Jade Quarry is stacked” nonsense.

Raised from the dead. Arise my minions!

Yes. Lets call it ‘nonsense’.

maybe if we repeatedly bump this they’ll update …..

Did anyone else notice that on the charts the Blue Borderlands Queue is indicated as “BB Queue”?

Makes me hungry…

Queue position, and transparency would be a very nice surprise for March update.

Some competitors to JQ think it will read “Queued for Eternal Battlegrounds, 472 of 5349 in Queue”.

Sorta tired of asking, but could we please have some sort of update to the graph data that shows the queue times or maybe even a new graph that shows the total number of players in WvW for each server plotted as a function of time over the course of, say, a week. Considering John Smith posted a graph of ecto sales, I don’t think a simple graph showing WvW population would be too much to ask for.

yeah… could anet please release the latest one please……. ?

My question is; what does Anet plan to do with this data? HoD got a huge influx due to free transfers as a “low” population server. This obviously killed their queue times. Since then it seems most of those players / guilds have left for this reason. Would it or would it not make more sense to offer transfers to several servers at one time with the lower queue times? Not just 2-3 servers, but more like 6-8 servers.

I’ve been thinking something similar as well. Anet should specifically control free transfers to try and balance out some population coverages in WvW imo.

The WvW tiers are mostly set as long as guild don’t merc out to another server. So if Anet looks within the matchups and tries to balance out the servers that’d be really nice.

Example: In any given tier, if there is a large discrepancy between top and bottom, Anet could open up a limited amount of free transfer spots into that server to try and balance the matchup more. Rinse and repeat until things fall into place and move onto the next tier.

They could also incentivize or limit transfers to only come from servers with a large margin over their tier.

Stop necroing this thread…

Make a new one and link to this one if you need it as an example. You are just abusing the big red dev tag.

Crap, I think we are stuck in a recursive algorithm.

Me also want update on this as well! Any Dev can provide us?

It is nice to see queue data but I think it still won’t help anything unless ANet can address the issue of people being stuck in queue for an hour+. The other issue they need to address is how each server’s WvW population differ greatly. The main problem in WvW right out is the imbalance of players fighting on each map. This occur frequently, almost all the time, during reset night, and it spread throughout the week as more and more of the players, from the outmanned side, lose interest. I believe the solution to this mess still lies in a system that specifically deals with population balancing for the 3 servers of the particular match. We don’t need all of the band-aids, such as outmanned buff, increase in objective points, new reset time, outbreak, or any other future ones. The players will be more happy to win and less disinterested after they lose when they knew, beforehand, they were fighting against even odds the whole time. Balance is the only thing keeps competition fun and worth while, not band-aids.

LF que this update just found this post and i’m interested to see how its changed for us since we’ve moved up a tier or two.

Walk on down to the server boys, grab an old server and publish this stuff live. ftp the stats output (mrtg or whatever you’re using) to a html 1.0 page with meta refresh if you have to.

<<- wants everyone to see the amazing KN queue

Are there any updates to these files?

I would love to see this as well

They won’t post updated data like this.

It’ll show how much population they’ve lost since Sept.

lmao good one.

But eh yeah… this thread keeps getting necro’d xD

Good thing I just started playing a necro, so I’m allowed to >=)

You mean because people transferred off of your server?

No.

What’s so hard about putting this information in at least once a month? We’ve all been asking for this for the longest time…
