Guild Wars 2

There are 3 basic gameplay modes for this game: PvE, sPvP, and WvW. PvE’ers have guesting, sPvP’ers have one que for all, and wvw’ers are stuck in one world. The only mode affected by population is WvW. So why is it that transfer costs to other servers are based on PvE population numbers? Wouldn’t it make more sense to tie them to WvW numbers rather than PvE?

In the worst case scenario, you would have a high pve population with a low wvw population suddenly be inundated with players. PvE zones have overflow, while wvw zones have queues. In addition to overflows, PvE’ers would be able to guest on other servers. Why would basing population for transfers on wvw be a bad thing?

EDIT: And doesn’t it seem odd to anyone else that despite having to transfer to the top 3 or 4 servers to get temples done, the top 1/2 of the servers are all Very High population? Seems to me an adjustment needs to be made.

they have a staff psychologist, they know what they are doing. They wanted to shake off most of the wvw population…it’s obvious. I’m taking a break from gw2 …and will unsubscribe from them because I’m tired of the let downs. They need those snobs who are willing to pay to win.

I can imagine it’s “impossible” for them to determine a server’s WvW population.

How do you tag a player as a WvW player and not a WvW player? Even if you want to use the number of players who queue for WvW within a week, what about weeks when a server decides to take a break to “lessen their WvW login for recruitment purposes”?

I imagine a transfer cost that is modified by a server’s WvW ranking is a bit more feasible.

OK, change it to this.

Pay to win? Unsubscribe? Are we even playing the same game, or are you a marketer from another company trying to start a kittenstorm?

lol…tin foil cap much ? – they let us down. It’s that simple. Pay attention, unless you are getting paid to use a different name for pr control on the forum, if that’s the case, then great work .
