Guild Wars 2

I think this is a great idea.

The lag will be stupid, no thanks

What would be the point ? Just make it 2 servers at this point. Keep it at 3 servers.

Not sure if you’re T1 or not, but YB gets pretty boring just trading places with TC and BG every week.

With a fourth server, there might be more incentive to not finish last. Right now, I don’t think most people care. “Oh well, guess we’ll just keep playing musical tiers with TC and BG.”

Finishing second\third wouldn’t be so bad (at least we didn’t get last), and coming out on top would be even more glorious. After getting beat down by JQ week after week, it would be fun to see them try and fend three servers off.

The same could also be said for SBI, Mag, FA, and CD.

nah, stupid idea. just manually swap JQ/TC/BG/YB alternately to T2, every week . problem solve.

oh look, a thread asking for a contrived pseudosolution to a t1 circumstantial problem that is anything but a true solution to the problem of imbalanced server populations.

the wvw manhour transfer model (with bandwagon prevention price spikes) is an elegant true solution that doesnt involve forced displacement or arbitrary reorganization based on current perceived issues that anet truly should not want to control.

I guess if you do not want to drop down to tier two, you have motivation to genuinely try to win the week, each week.

You really don’t get it. Some people like playing on servers with larger zergs and more people. Let them. That’s what T1 is for. Some people like smaller roaming or havoc. Lower tiers have that. We don’t need 24 evenly matched servers.

i quite “get it”. saying that t1 is for anything but the most skilled is just flat out wrong… and thats what youre doing, and thats the current state of the game, because with the current scoring model glicko is very bad at measuring what its intended to measure.
