Guild Wars 2

Anet you really need to address this problem. Today many of us went to do the Shadow Behemoth pre-events only to find we had be added to the “Queensdale Overflow” with which I didn’t even know it existed. And because of that those that were in the overflow missed out on the Shadow Behemoth event and rewards from the chest. I’m guessing that guesting has a lot to do with this problem and the anount of lag from it as well.

What probably needs to be done is the Event in overflow should coincide with the event in game. That way we can all get the event done and receive the reward. Or guesting needs to be stopped.

The event repeats constantly throughout the day. If you were in Queensdale before the event begins, you would be moved to non-overflow and could participate in the event. I don’t see that there’s an issue except for people that want to jump in the zone just for the one event.

The new loot attracts all sorts of people who didn’t used to visit Queensdale, including those from your home world. Some of them are also guesting to other worlds. It’s not clear whether guesting makes this worse or better, except we know that the problem started after the chest-loot change; it did not happen immediately after guesting was introduced.
