Guild Wars 2

Mireles Lore.5942:

Horrible idea, it does not even account for a 3 team system.

Lets entertain this idea like server population is WvW population, because there are very few servers that would not be able to fill WvW queues if they all participated at any given time.

So what happens when server 1 has 1000 players, server 2 has 500, and server 3, has 250?

They tick at 1x, 2x, and 4x? Do you not realize server 1 would have to own nearly all the map to keep even with server 3, not even accounting for server 2 being there as well? It just doesn’t work mathematically and is not in the interest of fairness when one team scores count more than the others. It pretty much requires big servers to control much much much more of the map than normal.

Putting servers that have guilds and leaders that put in the effort to make their server competitive to attract more people at a severe disadvantage is not “balancing” or “fixing”.

You are pretty much asking Anet to nanny small, low participation servers into competitiveness. Who is going to want to play in a highly fixed game where you are punished for the success of attracting people to your server?

If WvW is important to you, you need to move to a server where it is viewed as important. Not every server will be WvW competitive, its not realistic as not everyone participates and it is one area in a very big game.

The game rules need to stay the same for everyone, and need not to nanny servers that don’t participate. You have to play to win, if your server is not playing you wont win…. simple concept.

Sounds like someone who likes being on a server that outnumbers the other server as long as it means winning.

As it is now the wvw of this game is broken because of how offset the servers are. You can not say they are not.

Looking for a new server to transfer to I was wondering what servers out their have public voice comms for wvw. I don’t want to be anywhere near tier 1 2 3 or maybe even 4 with the new match making system. I like to try and win for the server but im not looking for a server to jump on because they always win. Just looking for a server that has voice coms and plays against other servers with similar coverage/numbers. Tired of the always outmanned thing happening in tier 2/3

I know what i want. I want to enter wvw and play vs the same numbers and have a fun fight or siege. I dont want to keep being matched up to server that either have way more numbers then us or us have way more numbers then them. PVD is not fun nor is looking out and seeing and 80man zerg when you have 10-15 ppl. The problem is not the random match making. its the coverage each server gets. They need to address this in some way.

Some of the reason people wanting to show up for their server and the fighting in wvw has gone stale is the reason to win. Who cares if you are ranked 4th or 7th in a system that randomizes the match up week to week.

Their needs to be an award system for 1st none for 2nd and 3rd. Why do I say no for the 2nd and 3rd? So it makes the game what the developers wanted it to be a three way fight not two stronger server ganging up on the 3rd weaker server. What would the 2nd stronger server have to gain nothing. However it would help the 2nd and 3rd focus wanting to keep the 1st server from gaining points… no?
These awards can very from badges or something but one never goes out of style is gold. I think that would be cool on Friday night the reset is coming and you get in game mail with your winning from the week. It could even be based of a ratio of how many objects and kills you did that week for your server.

Example: Your account took 360 towers, 89 keeps, 12 stonemist castle while killing 1076 players your award for your efforts this week is X amount of gold. Amount goes up and down on a % scale based on what is done. Also to help with balance the system while calculating could figure out the ratio of characters your server fielded vs your opponents so. Server got 1st place but it had a 4:1 ratio over the two other server and it diminishes the award but a %. This could also help balance out the coverage the servers have instead of making everyone wanting to jump to a winning server. For example again: This weeks match ups say TC wins over Fa and SoS one player gets an award of 1g vs CD who wins over Ehmry Bay and borlis pass a player with the same capture points and kills gets 5g because they had a ratio of 1:1. or another idea the server as a whole gets x number of gold amount and is distributed through the players who wvw. Again giving a server taking first who less population more gold over a server that has stacked population over its competition. To help with balance coverage.

As it is right now and Im sure most servers are like this that if they get a bad week most of the server just does not even show up that week. Bragging about winning on the forums only goes so far for so long.

This may not be the idea used but something more needs to be added to make people want to win vs just battle.

They can’t challenge us. Another week of ruined wvw. There is no god.

Transfer to a new server and help balance out the big coverage problem between servers. TC is all numbers. You have so much more coverage the DB and FA but not enough skill for tier1. Problem is not the system it is all the players stacking on a few servers.
