Desert borderlands looks cool but its too sucks, poo poo and garbage. Anyone on maguuma/sfd knew I used to tag up and command every day but the trekking all over a map to fight nothing but guards loving sucks, apline isn't perfect but it's better and that's cool by me.

Don't judge me.

Thank god. Maybe this'll help to revitalize mid/low-tier EU WvW. It used to be fun and not too blobby, but those tiers are all but dead now. First the matchups moved to just EB, and then slowly the game mode started dying, with people moving to higher tiers with bigger populations. We experienced a brief resurgence some months after launch, but it started dropping again after guilds started gaining access to banners and airship bombardments. Those effectively drove out smaller guilds and pug commanders/mobs, because they couldn't compete with bigger blob guilds with access to those tools. :(

What's the problem with the new maps?

Ideally any kind of PvP map (no matter the gametype or genre) should actually facilitiate player interaction, and the new borderlands failed at this. They don't have a single big glaring flaw, but a handful of them that kinda add up:
  • They're too large and getting to places takes too long, especially when respawning. It's very hard to respond to sieges fast if you don't have teleports active, etc.
  • This issue is also compounded by the laser cannon event in the middle, which takes huge chunks of gate health if activated. Defenders that aren't already close are going to have serious issues defending in time. And while the event isn't active, the middle is useless dead space, just like the ruins used to be in Alpine.
  • The map is also a bit too focused on verticality, with too much geometrical complexity. Both normal navigation and meeting with enemy groups is often interrupted by cliffs you can't navigate easily. The walls that block roamers (but not larger groups) also punishes roamers for no clear reason.

Things may be very different in the tier 1-2 servers, but for mid and low tier servers WvW is all but dead. :shrug:

I'm the lead trumpet player, playing loud and high is all I know how to do.

Last night was apparently ArenaNet WvW night, as about 8 or so ANet employees logged on for Tarnished Coast. They even claimed a keep. The one in EBG used to spawn camp Dragonbrand.

So of course we pushed them back and got the keep back because they had no upgrades nor tactivators and I guess we outblobbed the TC blob. But I had the pleasure of personally raining Meteor Showers on most of them.

Unfortunately I had the displeasure of seeing map chat explode with a bunch of whiners and conspiracy theories about ANet favoring our enemies and uggghhhh.
