There were even SEA guilds that easily queue a map by themselves back then. With alliance system, not that hard for anyone to make up a single timezone alliance if they really want to. This argument isn't about they will or will not do it, it is about can or cannot. Stacking happen because they can stack, not because they will or will not. Same thing for blackout, they did it because they can do it not because they know it will work.

The way I see it, for you to maintain two 50 man zergs for a day you need 100x24 man hours, or 2400 man hours. 250 people (50% guild cap) at 100% attendance around the clock would need to put in 2400/250 hours each, or 9.6 hours a day. Double that and you would obviously half the hours, so 4.3 hours a day for two such alliances.

> > If you want to actually reach plausible numbers that the average players is online... say 2h... you will have to double up on the alliances and then you reach - you guessed it - *server size*. If you want more realistic numbers for the average player, you will probably also assume that there is nowhere near 100% attendance from all those players - they will probably only put in maybe 3-4 days a week. So we are talking double server size for the constant presence you think you will get from just two alliances. Which actually makes sense if you think about how WvW looks today outside primetime.

And if my math is correct then 20-30 man zergs doing that work would **still** be *server size*, not two 500 man guilds.

 

Is it unreasonable to expect a server to have 40-60 people online at any given time? Thats just ~10-20% capacity of 4 queued maps!!!

 

Think about that for a moment. What exactly are we arguing?

 

That WvW at 10% capacity is overcrowded?

Pride of stacking like one group and as soon as you are 20 feet away they do not know what to do kinda pride? Not seeing it.

It sort of is happening already in some servers where you see more off hours than others. Currently, stacking servers is limited by the resident pug population which determines how many guilds can fit onto the server and this can't be controlled by anyone yet. Also, in order to move multiple large guilds, you would need to pay alot of transfer fees but I believe you simply need to declare an alliance with another guild in the new system without paying any gold? I think you guys are arguing too far into the math, you only need to see that there are much fewer players in off hours than during NA time to know that the same metrics cannot be applied for both timezones.

At what will probably be the same cap as a guild. Which is why we are saying it doesnt matter.

 

500 man guild (possible right now) or 500 man alliance, its the same thing. Transfer cost hasnt stopped anyone before.

 

Making it free for guilds to reorganize after an 8 week season changes nothing. Alliances will stack as good as a 500 man guild can stack, guilds thinking they are hardcore and want to go their separate way because they are a fight guild and everyone else is a ppt whore will still exist. Guilds rising and falling with a single commander will still be a thing. Players getting shunned and taking half an alliance with them to a new alliance will no doubt happen.

 

Alliances just adds another layer on GW2 guild and server drama scene.

In short, it is easier to find 500 man NA than 500 man SEA or OCX or EU or whatever. Now take that to another level, it is easier to find 500 man organized NA fight guilds than 500 man organized SEA/OCX/EU ( non-NA ) fight guilds. Please let me know what you don't understand from that statement.

Yes, start playing the game around the clock more. It seems you are very detached from current population situation.

It did, try talking to more guilds. Not in the way of "hey wasssup" but something more in-depth.

They could just add a WvW registration fee every 2months for Alliances. Forces some maintenance of guild and active players. Also forces use of gold for the economy. Could even add a gem amount for WvW registration. If you can't pony up that money then you'll just be randomized as a solo guild.

 

non-registrant= 25g

0-49 registrants = 50g + WvW battles/badges whatever currency

50-100 Registrants= 100g =^

100-199 Registrants= 200g

200-299 Registrants = 300g

300-399 registrants = 400g

400-500 registrants =500g

So like, worlds are being restructured or something? There was no TL:DR, didn't bother with the last 53 PAGES of griping.

 

This is Anet kids, it's not like this is happening anytime soon, and based off past performance we will see 2 more Xpacs out before this even smells like reality. There will be at least 6-7 months of hype for everyone to figure their stuff out.

 

Your world is safe for now.

Alliances will stack as good as a 500 man guild can stack, guilds thinking they are hardcore and want to go their separate way because they are a fight guild and everyone else is a ppt kitten will still exist. Guilds rising and falling with a single commander will still be a thing. Players getting shunned and taking half an alliance with them to a new alliance will no doubt happen.

Someone has hurt you haven't they ? I feel like someone hurt your feelings badly in this game for some reason.

OR they clearly said it was going to take a long time to implement and happen and that other stuff would be a priority first. I would rather them take their time on something make sure its built the best it can be and with longevity in mind then rushed out to please someone who is just going to complain about the first hiccup the see with it anyways.

Probably a month or less ahead of it launching, and nothing before the system is finalized, implemented, and tested thoroughly internally to ANet.

 

This is the same for every major, or minor, change in the game; this one is big enough that it actually got some pre-announcement that most things don't, but it is unlikely we will see anything more save for a significant change in plans.

We haven't heard anything in recent months.

Morever, I don't even remember the last time a dev posted in this subforum. It's been a while. I think it was that thread about siege updates, or possibly the thread asking the players for feedback on smaller updates to the gamemode. They may still be working through that.

You have to remember they have a finite amount of resources and pve will generally take priority as that's where the majority of the players are.

 

So basically you can assume that its a while off before they tell you otherwise. I doubt they'll post here on Tuesday saying "shit's live on Friday." Something that major, they'll give decent notice.

I begin to wonder if this restructure is even going to happen lol. We had the introduction to it but literally no updates on it or anything. Meanwhile the only thing keeping some going is time gated legendary armors lol. I figure at some point soon something will have to be said as resets seem to not even feel like a reset night anymore. The fights dying off after an hour of playing after the reset.

To be honest, it wouldn't be the first time Arena net said they would do a major overhaul to WvW only to back peddle.

If you've been playing WvW since or close to launch you will remember Devon Carver "Major WvW Revamp"

When it was quietly announced he was no longer with Anet, Devon disclosed on Reddit he hadn't worked on WvW for the prior 8 months.
