I saw a lot of posts I liked so I am going to voice them again to make you realize what we think is the issue.
- Not other Time-Zones
- Not Night- / Morningcrews
- The amount of points gained without resistance
I play on Ruins of Surmnia (Second last) and this week we fought our opponents Fissure of Woe (as always) and Vabbi (as opposed to Drakkar or Dzagonur).
We had epic, and truly epic fights even though we’re such small servers. All maps were contested even FoW which has a tendency to be very quiet. The first night / day we scored 20K for RoS with a small advantage over Vabbi and FoW. However, seeing as FoW and RoS are severely underpopulated in terms of WvW and our entire WvW crew went to bed after, Vabbi managed to retake everything during the morning that by the time the WvW guilds got up again we were behind with only 50% of the points they had.
This has been repeated every day so far where the only difference is the fact that the point difference continues to expand.
In other words, the teams are balanced when there is actual combat to be had. I see all servers use excellent tactics and strategy, I recognize players that I know to be careful for, but there is always one time-gap no matter who we face where all sectors are out-manned and they just rack up points like no tomorrow.
From our end we so no solution but to transfer to a more active WvW server even though we love RoS. From your end I see no plausible solution without destroying WvW except for making points scale-able with amount of players present / facing.
- The game being decided after the first night
When we play against Drakkar, Dzagonur or Whiteside (besides Vabbi and FoW our only opponents), servers whom for 80% of the time out-man us, we lose everything 2h after the reset and hardly ever cap anything back besides the camps (for 5 mins) and the occasional tower (for maybe 10 mins).
This has lead to both us and FoW (again, we are always matched together as the lowest ranked servers) to simply stop playing, making the difference even more apparent. There are days (not moments) we can not leave spawn. It’s gotten so worse at a certain point that my guild transferred to Drakkar for a single day just so we could see the other side. And do you know what they *said? “This match-up is boring.”, “There is no resistance”, “I’m not having fun like this”.
So basically everyone in our match-up is usually not having that good of a time.
This is a lot of text but I do hope it makes it through. Thank you for reading.
