Hope the population keeps increasing for Blackgate since I wont have the game on launch would like to play in a high populated server.

 

I'm not sure what the pop cap for servers are, but Blackgate has the 2nd or 3rd highest pop currently, so it might get full if the pop keeps rising.

 

Why won't you be able to play on launch. Even if it's just to create your char to reserve a spot on the server.

 

edit: I personally prefer higher pop servers, but it can be a problem for GC members who are joining in late :(

Jade Quarry has a high % of WvW guilds. Granted, PvX guilds also consider themselves to be a part of WvW, but my guess is having more specifically WvW guilds gives the server a stronger presence in WvW, maybe?

Heya folks! If you're looking for server suggestions, the people over at mmorpg are all starting on Jade Quarry and Ashenfort. There's a huge following over there, that server should be jumpin.

 

I'm totally gonna be there at launch. Should be 11PM CST on 8/24 if they do the "early" early access, right?

 

P.s. it's good seeing you guys in here (lousiest, jc, etc)!
