Guild Wars 2

Hey all,

I’m sure this has been brought up a thousand times but I’m still curious if anyone would ever be in favor of an idea such as this.

So pretty much as they title says, perhaps once every two months or based off of feedback, we could have a week or two where two lower tier servers fight together against a couple of higher tier opponents. Obviously there are some logistical challenges of such an idea but it doesn’t seem undoable to me.

The goal of the idea would be to accomplish what the Spring Tournament wanted to be about (or so I assume), that being to have some “fresh” match ups. Obviously the problem with the Spring tournament is the WvW ranking system is pretty darn accurate, and a lot of servers have found themselves more than once outclassed.

Last thing I want to say again is I certainly wouldn’t want this to be a super common thing and I wouldn’t want it to be a “stepping stone” to a WvW megaserver mess. I simply think it could be interesting and fun.

Thoughts?

Your superserver idea beats EOTM style maps for sure.

However I’d be more supportive of free transfers being given to doomed servers.

That just break up the servers you don’t consider doomed… Look how people bailed on Borlis Pass pre-season…

This will only transfer the problem to another server, over and over…

Oh I meant like tiny servers that are totally unable to compete, like owning 0% of eb 24 hours a day.

Obviously those people would want to transfer to the really big servers, but if they could be given transfers only to middle sized servers I feel this would help things out.

I’m really against breaking up server cohesion, but I feel like this megaserver stuff is already doing it. At least transfers would put the choice in the hands of the player.

A long time ago I posted my concept of how WvW should be a level of organization above worlds. Where worlds were where we gather and build a community. Then, we have an alliance level above worlds were we can join for epic large scale battles.

What seems to have occurred is that WvW is now the alliance level and the Mega Server is where we all gather about. Because when you think about it, the worlds have been eliminated from all zones except the BL’s and EB. Which is a shame really….
