I have a couple of accounts and I am seeing some noticeable differences in queues and maps depending on servers. After the world-linking, what are the new population totals? Is the population balance even now or skewed?
On one account the queues are terrible and i find myself sitting at a crafting table waiting for my queue to pop.
If the queues are too long, I will hop over to my other account and there are no queues and the maps are being blobbed down in over-whelming numbers.
Each scenario is equally non-enjoyable.
What’s the population status Anet?
I understand that a lot of transfers happened prior to the linking, from leaked info mostly. I see the forums riddled with ppl complaining about server stacking, etc.
Are the world-linking pairings going to be changed more frequently to reduce queue times for over populated server pairings?
I also understand that the change was to shake things up among the tiers, which seems to be working. Just curious about actual totals now…how do the numbers line up across the pairings now?
So, I’m sure you can imagine, I am on a server that doesn’t have a night crew. Every night around midnight, I log off with a decent PPT rolling… only to wake up the next morning to find out that a small night crew has completely taken over all the maps. I know, I know, quit whining…but, WvW just starts to really suck when you know that a group of about 5-10 ppl are responsible for that servers win every week. I know that over time, the rankings adjust so these servers all move to the top, but its just so painful to play when you are undoing the workings of a small group that is playing at 3-5am. So…should some of these servers that have a large non-NA presence be moved to EU? I’m not suggesting that there be a nighttime cutoff either…but maybe an increased time between ticks for PPT during the wee hours?? I guess I’m just trying to think of a way to make night capping crews not so overpowered. Or somehow discourage the night capping method for winning. I know, I know…just recruit a nightcrew. But, basically, these nightcrews are just PVEing their way to server wins every week (whats the sport in winning without actually having to PVP) Eventually, it will just come down to snooze you lose (literally)
For those of you on a night capping server…enjoy.
For those who are not…meh, hang in there.
