It would be very great if the system that determines your color and thus starting location in WvW would change. At the moment it seems that the server with the lowest total score(of the 3) becomes red, the server with the highest score becomes green and the middle server becomes blue.
i’m pretty sure about this, since we have been red from the first week and stayed there (i’m from FOW and our server has been last in the total scoring list since the start of one week battles) At some point ruins of sumira joined us, starting their first week green and after being surpassed, the next week they were blue and have been ever since.
Firs of all it becomes a bit boring to always be on the same maps/side of eternal week after week.
Second it is a major problem for players who want to complete the WVW maps for the title (capping all POI in castles/towers) In most cases you can just complete your homeworld, wait for a color change and repeat until you are done. This is for our server a.t.m. not an option and since we are still last in all the fights i don’t see a change in the near future.
To make matters worse this problem is also starting to affect our PVE player base, because the only option that they have to complete the world map is to change server, and when they do there is a big change they stay there… because of all the WVW bonuses in pve. I’m already noticing the difference in orr, as most group events are impossible to complete due to the lack of players (during week days at least)
It is not so that rotating colors will just solve all our problems, but at least it gives better changes for weak servers to complete wvw maps. And it makes fighting more fun because always the same side ( on eternal) becomes a bit boring
