Two different problems with the WvW world map (and mini-map) tonight, logging into into Crystal Desert Borderlands from Tarnished Coast server. (This Borderland is the one at the middle top of the screen.)

Problem 1: All of the icons for various factions appear on the map, but the terrain is not WvW, it is parts of pve world map. The borderland I logged into is on Dredgehaunt Cliffs, and the other areas’ icons appear over Queensdale and other parts of Kryta. There are no waypoints. There is no icon for myself or other players on my team. I cannot see my own movements or battles, and if I die, there is no way to waypoint out. (Note that I had a similar problem with the Halloween dungeon, where the map that appeared was an underground layer of Dredgehaunt and had no waypoint; the waypoint in the dungeon did not trigger for me either.) I exit via pvp screen and queue up again.

Problem 2: Now I get the correct WvW terrain map. The other three areas have proper icons and waypoints. However, the Borderland that I logged into does not have any of those icon or waypoints. (It does have skill points and vistas marked.) Also, when first opened (and in mini-map), the map is zoomed in, not on the correct part of the terrain map, but rather on a fog-of-war white spot to the southeast of the actual map. Again, no icons for me or other players. I used a waypoint to teleport to Eternal Battlegrounds and things work fine, except the world map continues to show no waypoints for Crystal Desert Borderland.

Problem #2 is now persistent and preventing me from using that Borderland.
