It won’t work in the future. Why? Because of the players. At the moment a bunch of players leaving from servers to “winner” servers, so some servers will be really low populated without having any chances in wvw anymore. Some players addicted to wvw who actually play on the 2nd, 3rd or 4th ranking server will transfer or leave the game, new players on those server will use wvw for farmspots or ignore that kind of content > which will lead to lower player base.
So in the end you will have 1 or 2 full servers on every continent which are able to keep wvw going 24/7 for a while and a load of servers where borderlands will be a huge farmspot.
In the actual system (yeah, I know “24/7” is intended) most servers stop playing wvw because of being 100k points behind after a day.
And yes, it’s frustrating. You leave at 2 at night, have paid some keep upgrades, sieges on the walls, tons of equipment build up and 8 hours later everything is gone – without having a chance to fight for it. No, it’s even more frustrating, when you see that everything, even depots, is fully upgraded by your enemy in your borderlands and all that in 8 hours of gametime.
Nothing will fix that, it will break wvw, when it happens every night in a two week cycle, because it’s a pve gameplay, not a wvw or pvp.
Adapt or die,
At some point what will happen is a few dedicated groups will pick another server and transform WvW on it to make it a vicious fighting force. Eve alliances do this and there’s nothing to prevent a well co-ordinated force from doing it here (Spy’s optional)
