At this point, I am leaning to Tarnished Coast. It looks like it a sizable population with a third being rp guilds.  Less queues, less assholes (besides us) and plenty of people to do Dynamic Events with.

We don't have to pick between the two extremes, there's a happy medium between "barren wasteland" and "long ass pvp queues".

Why does it take so long for the fact that long ass pvp queuse were because of a  bug to sink in?


Ok well to simply things, having a queue at all is bad if we can go to a server without queues i am all for that.

No queue at all (at any time) means that there aren't (even close to) a maximum amount of players for the wvwvw on the server. Sucks if there are on the other sides.

Ya but at least it costs half as much to transfer off a crowded server to a light one than the other way around.
BTW I thought Shild said he'd be running BC in this game. (For the 2 weeks he plays)

Having a GL on different server with no interest in actually leading doesn't like a great idea.  Maybe Nerf's dog could be our leader.

Do we really have enough people to make a go of having a guild?

We had 2 dozen people at one point. We could easily double that live.

I don't think there is a practical "if you don't have X amount of people you can't Y" that requires the guild to be a certain size.

Not to mention this seems to be the single best implementation of guilding for f13 ever, because if someone actually plays more than 2 weeks they are in their friend's guild. Being able to represent f13 without a hassle and cross-server pve should be pretty awesome.

Hey Bat Country -- f13...

As you can see I'm new around these parts, but may I offer a suggestion for your guilds location: Blackgate (US)

At first glance you may say, hey.. there is hardly anyone on that server according to the guild homeworld lists. But speaking as a BLACKGATE insider, and conspirator --
I can comfortably say it will be a competitive US WvW server. Not to mention a lower populated server will provide a better latency experience;) ha. anyways.


Avoiding babble --- resources:

www.tinfoil-hat.org -- Tinfoil Hat Conspiracy (my guild, focusing on drunken WvW griefing / sPvP tourney style and of course end-game content/progression
www.epicguildwars2.com -- EPIC -- Highly focused on WvW with an international communtiy of 1,000+ -- we are actively in contact with them to make sure there are 24/7 WvW squads dedicated to keeping blackgate on top!
GG - Good Game
KO - Team KnockOut

and so many more are starting to surface, please reconsider your idea and think about Blackgate.

Please note, I'm not here to shamelessly plug these websites, even my own. I just want to extend an invitation to the Blackgate (US) community! If you need any assistance with creating a guild website for your guild I'd be more than happy to help you out. Any questions or comments.. please post.

Thanks for your time!

Hurrah, the guild website that we so desperately need!   Ohhhhh, I see.


Anyhow yeah, every server's going to lose half its population in a month, so don't go picking from the bottom of the barrel on release or you'll wind up in a wasteland in under eight weeks.  But do try to avoid a server that's going to be home for a huge self-sustaining community like SA, reddit, or 4ch.  There'll be more than enough people in those guilds to keep the WvW queued up entirely on their own, even months down the road.

I don't particularly want to lead the guild here due to my involvement in competitive Magic, but myself and the other will be playing pretty heavily.

Yes.  You can be a member of multiple guilds.  Whichever one you represent at the time is what gets credit for guild-thingies and which chat channel you use.  (Although a lot of people are asking to let us have multiple guild channels.  Eventually I expect it to be an option.)

So what is the official decision on Bat Country's server for live? I broke down and preordered. There were a lot of things about this game I thought were only so-so but they did enough I decided to give it a chance and since I'm not out a sub fee I figured what the hell.

The actual decision is:  Undecided.

Lantyssa:  Sorrow's Furnace

Tazelbain:  leaning towards Tarnished Coast

PvP-lovers:  elsewhere

Everyone else:  Huh

No biggy. GW2 will be my "I don't want to play Secret World or Lotro today" game anyway. I'll try to keep an eye on things. No one I know outside of f13 is playing the game except my wife which is why I asked.

The only difference a server picks is who you WvW with.

Everything else is cross-server.

Guild bonuses are not cross server either is my understanding. So you probably want to be on the server your guild is on.

I am ok with that. If there was a monthly with this game, then probably not.
