"the context on How World Restructuring fits into the bigger scheme for the WvW game mode?"

 

I'm confused my good friend... The devs already gave information "on How World Restructuring fits into the bigger scheme for the WvW game mode"... You even quoted the WR threads into the library... Take a look... https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/73411/guild-wars-2-forum-the-library-wvw

Setting out on an ocean ship voyage or airplane flight without a clear destination & a planned route to take...is not a good idea.

 

The post you refer to is a library of posts that chronicle WvW discussions that do not in of itself present a detailed Road Map.

 

A decent Road Map needs to provide a vision on where this game mode is headed to in the future while detailing the steps on how we're expected to get there from where we are...imho

 

Example Road Map:

https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/89449/wvg-world-vs-globes/p1

 

CHAPTER 1 - REBOOT WvW - Remove World Linking & Implement Changes to WvW

CHAPTER 2 - REDESIGN WvW - Re-Purpose Server Guesting for WvG & encourage Healthy Competition

CHAPTER 3 - NEW GAME MODE & VISION - Establish a better Road Map & Vision with World vs Globes

CHAPTER 4 - WvG MATCH-UP - Globe Raiding of Green & Blue - Weekly Picked by Players

CHAPTER 5 - EOTM LOBBY - Mist Raiding, WvG Recruitment & Craft-Merchant Vendors

CHAPTER 6 - WvG TOURNAMENTS - Using New Match-Up Mechanics based on a Globe Raiding Model

 

The End goal of this Example Road Map is to host an annual eSport SuperBowl event with corporate sponsors that's designed to be an END GAME Content to PvE in CHAPTER 6.

 

World Restructuring, however, is the equivalent of only being CHAPTER 2 in relation to the above Example Road Map that tries to solve the Match-Up problems of WvW caused by population imbalance & over stacking.

 

I'll ask ask again...can we have the other chapters of a complete Road Map & not just CHAPTER 2?

 

Credibility requires critical insight & time.

i think if they just had the dev team focus on alliances for X amount of time and delay living world release, it would have been much better for Anet. Like who is actually going to write positive review on steam after all this? or is this the way they want to get rid off the competetive players?

 

at this point im not sure. I just hope this amazing mode would get dedicated team and support. This mode really could have been huge if given time and love.

 

after all, we still play it

Actually I think the core idea is not that bad. But the classic server still should stay. I have played on Underworld (EU) since release. Though I didn't play from end 2013 until June 2019 ... I never changed the servers. Even when I came back 2019.

 

The alliances > guilds > players thing is interesting. But maybe players could join an alliance without being in a guild (just for some char/organization but with no guild power/rights).

 

Or as alternative: Players that don't like to play in a WvW guild could just stay on their server. Then make the "new worlds" as a combinatoin of "world" (players not in a alliance and/or wvw guild), alliances and guilds. So ... less organized players could form some kind of "core population" by staying linked to their previous world/server. While organized players in alliances/guilds get distributed towards all those core populations to try even it out making about the same population happen at the end everywhere.

Maybe vanilla Alliances with the same name of the actual servers?

 

But who would be the one in charge of it?

 

And Alliances When.

They can't break WvW more than Firebrand + Scourge did, unless they essentially just make Firebrand 2.0 + Scourge 2.0 on different classes.
