Guild Wars 2

LithePanther.5027:

I do want to say, that it’s not as if they can have a server that can host unlimited people. It’s a popular server with lots of people, and you need to do it like everyone else has to do it when they want to get onto a popular, full server.

Wait, hope, and stay up all night.

You’re not entitled to be able to play with your friend. It’s not Arenanet’s fault that someone is on a full server so other people can’t easily join.

You could’ve stuck with just that middle sentence, there. =)

I am at a loss, here. A friend wanted me to play, so I bought the game. His server is Dragonbrand. I cannot join this server. For the past 3 days (At -all- hours of the day), the server has shown as full. I cannot play with my friend? What design decision was this?

I know I’m going to get an inordinate amount of good-will posts protecting the decision, but any choice made by a game developer that limits a player from experiencing the game should not be made.

Am I just expected to waste my time, checking at different insane hours of the night, just hoping to join a server?
