Relink algorithm?


Recommended Posts

People seem to be acting like we could actually test anet's relink algorithm, but I don't believe it's actually been tested yet. In the old system there were issues with guilds transferring to get the matchups/servers they wanted. This led to completely unbalanced matches. That has been replaced with a free transfer for anyone that wants to get on any team they'd like. No need to select your wvw guild or anything, just wait to see where your old server/guilds end up and ask anet to move you to that team. You don't even need to pay gems, it's free. The last relink teams were very different at the end of the links from where they were first week and certain teams exploded with population while others were ghost towns.

Until anet says, "it's been X months now, if you haven't learned out to select your wvw guild there is no hope for you" or they only allow transfer each account once, this will continue to be an issue.

That was kind of part of the thing being done with the betas and now we are on the second sort closing in in the third. The purpose of reducing teh sort period from 8 weeks to 4 was to allow for more tuning and data collection. So not not sure what you mean here.

Agree they will need to cutdown on players gaming the CSRs but based on a few threads it does sound like they are working on that. Would it be better for them to come share those details...yes else it leaves a double negative connotation. One where they are splitting people up, but then two allowing people to play that card and throwing off new sorts with fake transfers requests.
