I don’t spend a lot of my time on these forums. I am not posting a question, expecting any direct response, or anything at all. I don’t care if this is a duplicate post.
I am simply posting this to raise awareness of an ongoing problem relevant to the April feature pack release, specifically megaservers. Know where I’m going with this already?
Overflows. Map layers. Kicking. Full maps. Maybe Anet couldn’t foresee this, or something. I don’t know enough about the mechanics of the raw system to really comment about it in-depth, but yes, people are unable to get to their map overflows with their guildmates, or are getting kicked and replaced with new players. This isn’t anything new, and has been happening since it was implemented.
Getting to Sparkfly Fen for Teq 45 mins early, went to toilet, only to come back having been kicked from the layer, and replaced by people who arrived later. Same with Triple Trouble.
The purpose of the megaserver system is to let players far and wide get together, and allow you to enter zones where your guildmates are. And maybe it does do just that, but the new bosses that are meant to be “upgraded!” and “much more fun!” and “much better rewards!” and the “new megaservers! play with your guildmates!” thing isn’t really going together. Bit of a meltdown.
My suggestions? Create instances or map queues.
