Guild Wars 2

The Crystal Desert linking probably did have a population similar to Blackgate and Jade Quarry, but only because they are in T4. The amount of activity a server has seems to decrease as they go up in tiers.

For example, when Fort Aspenwood rolled T3 (which was only a couple of weeks ago) they had 42000 kills and were the most active NA server if you were to measure ‘activity’ crudely by (kills+deaths) (https://www.reddit.com/r/Gw2WvW/comments/59vqtq/euna_kill_stats_2110_2810/); they had around 68k for (kills+deaths).

This week they are in T1 and they currently only have 12000 kills and only around 32k for (kills+deaths)(https://wvwintel.com/#1009), its not the end of the week yet but they’re going to end at around half the ‘activity’ they were at when they rolled T3.

Edit: In that same link above you can see YB were T1 not too long ago too, I don’t have a record of it, but they had something like 10000 kills that week and 30k (kills+deaths). This week they are in T3 and they have 25000 kills and 56k (kills+deaths) already (https://wvwintel.com/#1003).

Chrono.6832:

Can confirm from TCs side. It’s queued up with none of our commanders, contacts or anyone on the BL. South camps and towers held for over 3 hours with no upgrades. Lots of people are irritated that BG gets a solid hold on PPT.

BG actually getting 0 points from BGBL, so TC should be happy, you guys getting free skirmish wins for however long this takes to fix.

Found something new about the bugged BGBL.
Blackgate are getting ZERO points from BGBL, noone else is either.

1s before tick.

Few seconds after tick.

The missing points are approx the points on BGBL.

the last tick didnt give bg the correct amount of points (around 40 instead of the ~90 displayed a the top) i didnt watch tc/fa carefully but i suspect one or the other may have gotten more and there is some group rfom either server flipping everything on the bugged bgbl.

edit: the last bit was wrong, ill post what seems to be happening below (bgbl objectives award 0 points every tick).

ive been queued for the map for hours, none of the camps are getting flipped (all 3hours+ old) yet no yaks are getting anywhere (hills stuck on 36ish/40 for reinforced for hours too).

tcs score is also going up very quickly in last skirmish and this one.
edit: api doesnt seem to be saying tc getting enough kills though, and their ppt been equalish with bg, so not sure where tc points coming from.
edit2: worked out whats going on in regards to last edit, will post below (bgbl objectives award 0 points every tick)

I managed to resolve this by running the 64-bit launcher just to update (put it in your install folder so it doesn’t try to reinstall the entire game). I switched back to the 32 bit launcher after and it was all good.

Will any of the following issues be considered when finalizing the reset time (I don’t believe there has been any developer response in regards to these)?

• Extreme reduction in WvW participation in the 24 hours prior to Saturday night reset (in comparison to the old reset time of Friday night).
• As per above, noticeable overall reduction in WvW participation since those 24 hours aren’t going to be made up elsewhere (the slight increase in Saturday night activity, and relatively unchanged activity elsewhere, won’t outweigh the massive decrease in activity over that 24 hour period between Friday night and Saturday night)
• Comparatively larger reduction in ‘weekend nights’ for the OCX/SEA population on NA servers (essentially only Sunday night now, and they can’t play late either if they have work or school on the Monday).
