You don’t know what the overall player population is going to look like in 6 months or a year and that will have an impact on the viability of multiple servers from a purely competitive standpoint.įor me personally, the single largest frustration today was having a guild member buy the game and try to create a character only to find that our server is full. I get your thinking that in 6 months or a year things will even up more, however ‘gamers’ are a very fickle lot especially in a fairly narrow focused game. I honestly am not sure how it will settle out. Some guilds have moved to EU servers where they can (A.) compete on a top tier server and (B.) not deal with any queues since everyone else is sleeping. Another option to consider is becoming someone else’s night time crew. Queue times are not an issue, and in the bottom tiers the other servers aren’t exactly fielding zergs 24/7 either. Spacelord, I know of a few guilds that have transferred to lower population servers and there is something to be said of that. Sadly, it is the large guilds moving that have the dramatic impact on Wv3, yet the large guilds are the ones really not impacted by the influence loss very much. This issue is real, because it is something that is strong enough to make them move and start over with their influence.Īs an aside, currently the only penalty to a guild for moving in the loss of influence. Or there is a guild/alliance on their current server that they are simply sick of dealing with and would rather fight them than help them.īottom line, guilds move because the players in the guild are looking for something they do not think their current server either provides or will provide in the future. They feel the server they are currently on provides a very poor community. Other guilds in their alliance or that they are friendly with either moves or started on another server. A guild gets tired of losing each week and doesn’t think it will improve, they look for another server they feel will give them a better chance to win.ģ. Therefore, they look to transfer to a server that has a stronger population during their off-hours.Ģ. They get annoyed taking a map and spending alot of resources building it up only to have it nightcapped while sleeping. I will list a few that may be in play for them.ġ. I have watched many guilds move from my current server over the last few weeks and they gave numerous reasons. I don’t think you can bunch it into one reason or another. So… what is it? anyone have a theory? anyone who actually does this regularly have a personal explanation? I guess there are minor gains for things like camping jump puzzles for designs… but those aren’t hard to get at, even if on the loosing end of a crush match (I’ve been on both sides, and both are equally boring). It can’t be for the bonuses, I wouldn’t think, because they’re so small and insubstantial. It can’t be for fun because once one side owns 95% of a map, there’s almost nothing to do for either side. It can’t be to push a server into another tier, because once balance is restored and transfers cost money, that will all balance out and go away, and if you can’t hack it as a server in the higher tiers, exploiting your way to the “top” is a waste of time… not to mention anyone could just transfer over to that top tier server anyway.

I know there has been a lot of complaints about how free transfers are ruining WvW, and I tend to agree.īut what this post is about is trying to understand the WHY for the transfers.
