Guild Wars 2

I took a glance over at the scores for the matchups in NA over at millenium, and there isn’t a single close matchup that indicates roughly equal coverage. Every single tier besides perhaps Tier 1 demonstrates that there is an obvious population advantage in WvW on one or more servers.

I do remember a period where matchups were much more equal and the giant gaps in score only existed in a few. There has never been a more pointless time to shoot for PPT besides now. People seem to aim more for fights and a fun siege more than aiming to truly win a match.

I hope that HOT brings either some form of server merges or some clever system to create a fair playing ground.

Move to EU, get more people to move to EU, alternatively, move out of T1, then get more people to move outta T1.

See my post as to why HoT will not be fixing WvW Population issues…. Even with the new stuff, it’s sort of hard to believe that WvW won’t continue to hemorrhage players since the new maps won’t change the fact that if there are only 10 defenders on a map versus 180 others from the 2 opposing servers, that server will be crushed….

isnt HoT only a new BL map in terms of WvW ? everything the rest will only work on the NEW pve map.
Right?

Well the new map will have the defending and holding forts with the ancillary tower,s camps, and keeps cause changes in the structure to block travel routes and other things like that, but I am pretty sure they said they were going to add some additional mechanics to the existing maps too, to make defending have value. We’ll see….

HOT will not fix anything. If they knew how to fix WvW they would have patched this game but they can’t and they haven’t. Expect more of the same.

How could HoT fix something that not a game problem but an RvR problem? The game could be 100% wvw and you would still have off times where some worlds simply have better coverages then other worlds.
