What is the population cap for the borderlands in wvw?

Additionally if the cap is 150 for example can server A have 80, server B 60, and server C 10, before you must queue to enter a borderland? Or is the cap equally divided between the 3 servers at 50 each?

During one test everyone was down to 60ish per map. Those halcyon days of no lag. Sigh.

In all seriousness, this question has been asked countless times and Anet is very tight lipped about it.

Best guesstimate puts it at 80 per map max. But they may have upped it a bit with the linkings. Take a screen grab and count em up

I would say its around 75 per server per map.

Something like that. In the old days it used to be 100 per border and 150 on ebg afaik, which was then turned down quite a lot due to server issues and slowly upped over time again.
Looking at how many people there are around when you have a full 50 man squad running around I’d guess it’s about 70-75 on the borders.

Last time we did a “check” it was ~85-90, but that was like a year ago (borderhopped entire EB to a nearly empty border and all stacked on com)
