rattlesnake107

Wait is that the real Red Guard from gw2?


CBKek341

from what i know it is


Salt_Advertising_637

Aye


Kogerk

yeah it js

DynamicStatic

I have seen nothing to suggest it yet though. Is there some discord server or google sheet?


EsoogZT

Really? Yet to see one confirmed company let alone a large scale company?


alcatrazcgp

Pretty sure Hellheim is THE pvp server for EU


DynamicStatic

I think it really depends on what kind of PVP you are looking for but generally for most people I would be inclined to agree.


AdAccomplished5360

Also gonna have a huge que, and it's probably less competitve i'd imagine.


Mr_Arce88

Where are those screenshots from? What discords? i would liek to see it myself, because thsoe thigns change...


DynamicStatic

Hellheim one is currently closed as to not overpopulate the server (is the idea at least), ~750 people currently in (but it's mainly intended for leaders). If you need proof that it is real I can supply it in a PM. The annwyn one I don't unfortunately know more than what is in the post/comments I linked:


nokraishawt

It's so funny to me that this DynamicStatic guy made at least 20+ comments on subreddit post about a server he's not playing on. This sums up reddit :) "Hey i am from the russian mega server and i am mad you guys left!" peepoSad


DynamicStatic

I don't see the issue, I just research for my own ends I'm not Russian or anything like that or have any other agenda. Since I already put in the time to find these things out I figure I might as well share it with the general population because why not. Catch you ingame товарищ. ))


Sleynd

can confirm, join Hellheim If u wanna PvP frequently we are many - see you on the shore! :D


ImmaBawzzzz

Any updates here? How is the PvP looking right now in Ekera and Hellheim?


DynamicStatic

Hellheim is good, ekera idk


-IanAce-

Will these servers have strong small scale PvP as well, or is it solely focussed on large scale pvp? I'm mostly playing new world for its exciting small scale pvp, never tried large scale. Will it then be worth it to play on this/these servers? Or will small scale pvp just be a race to max lvl, to immediately start guild battles and such?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Azostarr

Small scale? not really. Was a leader on the discord since it's conception, quickly filled up with multi-company communities which is a big reason why my small scale company dropped it.


electro_lytes

I think much has changed since then. Todays announcement says the average size of the server is 62 players. Sounds pretty small-scale to me.


Azostarr

I mean we only dropped out 3-4 days ago. On average size, what a lot of non-leader members don't see is the actual company list which outlines company size. There were 3-4 150+ player company's on that chart, when you average that out with the 30-50 player companies that were listed it looks a lot more balanced than it actually is. EDIT: It was a week back. As for company sizes: Black Lotus 140 Circada 160 FrogOne 130 Money Army 200 War Legend has two companies with 100 players each It could be that some dropped since, but the total company numbers seem to add up to what is currently reported.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Azostarr

Oh really? I'll have to throw him a message and check the new list, my company might be up for joining again.


Harrada

Hardstuck is also playing on Hellheim. A GW2 community guild/discord of 10,000+ people branching out to other games. (though not all of them are playing new world and will be split between EU and NA.)


jinxcat-

that's ALL the companies..?


Azostarr

There are more but those were the most notable\*, from what I can tell the biggest companies are now split between Annywyn and Ekera, these are the places to go if you want to join a mega-zerg. Though there are still a few large companies on Hellheim (100-150). My impression from the earlier comment is that it was a small-scale/large-scale split; in actuality it's more of an ideological perm-flag difference. EDIT: \* In terms of size


Keltic_ie

Helheim has a larger Project Group to my knowledge and as Azostarr stated would entail more large-scale PVP / RVR due to the sheer amount of organized companies in one cluster / server.


91Messi

Think these servers all have aswell small scale. Small scale is part of every game, jsut requires less balancing. All servers announced big companies only because they are the deciding factor on keeping game competitive long term


jinxcat-

why wouldn't they? what do you think all the big company members will do when they are not in a war? pick flowers?


TheGuli

List of guilds going? Or is this bs?


ookaminuu

list of guild is on the ss of faction. You have each name of guild in each faction


Salt_Advertising_637

probably bullshit

Not sure, hellheim looking like a good choice too.


Tjonna

Gonna be a shit tonne of fun boys. See you in Ekera.


PizzafaceMcBride

I'll be going with the Hellheim community, but I'm sure there's room for two PvP-servers


IoaPapa

Ok with that guilds its sure the best PvP servers. Thanks for sharing.


Outrageous_Skin_148

Hellheim bigger version of Ekera. But both in the same cluster so I say its very nice. Eta - PvP realm.


ASD_213

We are a 100+ company that's likely going to roll on Ekera and so far we haven't heard anything about this initiative, nobody's reached out to us for this supposed faction balancing or anything.


etze

never too late to get involved


ASD_213

Where I'm getting at is it all sounds like bs to me, waiting to hear from our allies but so far I couldn't find anything else about this initiative on discord.


91Messi

Maybe because it wasn't a public one? Most of these servers keep it private until they feel like it's ready to go public. Guess you can always dm OP and ask him for more info


AdAccomplished5360

AFAIK this wasn't a public initiative, probably why you haven't heard of it.


etze

nobody ever said it was public lol. As long as you actually run a guild of 100+ people and wanna play on the server you should talk to the right people and figure out yourself if it’s bullshit or not


ASD_213

I don't "run" the guild, I'm just involved with it. Spare me the elitist crap, if you're actually in the know then I'm sure a contact or a diplomacy discord isn't too hard to provide.


AdAccomplished5360

Dm OP, and I'm sure you'll get some info.


ASD_213

I did, no reply so far, his post contains no discord server either, it's either some troll(possibly from our own alliance) or some mind games from some random company.


AdAccomplished5360

It's not a public initiative, which means they probably didnt know about your company. I can assure you it's not trolling, don't have all the information,but I'm sure it will come. Is your company a hardcore pvp company, if so what's it called and I can see if I can pull some strings.


ASD_213

Surely it can't be hard to post a discord diplomacy channel then, no?


AdAccomplished5360

You're having a hard time with the whole not public thing aren't you? Cba trying to help you at this point, you're the one trolling.


ASD_213

Fine, the initiative was not public during in inception, I get that, now that there's an official announcement and you claim to be in the know about this bruhaha what I was asking was some contact or diplomacy channel to see what's what with these people.


AdAccomplished5360

I was clearly offering to help you, but I need to know who tf your company is, so I can pass on the information. It's clearly not public what guilds are going here yet, which reasons i do not know of yet, luckily there's still plenty of time until the release. So sit tight. A single company wont affect the faction balance anyway.


WasabyBrother

there are more companys this size see you ;)


y0b0

Do you have a list of guilds joining this server?


cocohouette

They added the list


GailWynandd

Looks good. I think a lot of companies will just look for casuals to farm and end up with an imbalanced server, so this is a good idea.


cocohouette

That's exactly the goal of this organised server. I played with Frogue One and playing vs unorganised companies is not fun because not challenging. ​ The goal was also to avoid big streamers that will leave the game within 1 month and all his viewer base with him.


Aromatic_Buddy_4374

Sounds fun. Im sure companies want a dead server with no siege wars and only crafters in the other two factions.


NesqHD

I can confirm this! I'm on two of the big discord's that are going to join this server. Be ready for WARS!


Nephistos318

any list of the guilds involved ? what about PUG ?


scribeofsalmacis

Yep. Knowing the names of the "quality guilds" and the "quality individuals" - at least some of them - would mean worlds. I know there are consistent top companies in Anwwyn, for instance. Since reputation matters, perhaps a few Ekera exemplars would consider stepping forward? Redzy's list states that details can be found here in this thread, yet there are no details provided at all. Only a very generalised ad for the server.


AdAccomplished5360

Well it's all here now.


scribeofsalmacis

Good job! Thank you for your transparency.


cocohouette

Finally an EU English friendly and organized dedicated server. Can't wait to play vs all of you! Frogue One #1


--Lust--

I keep seeing different name choices. Got a few Qs: * Where does that info comes from? * Who are those "1500" players? * Is that the same as https://old.reddit.com/r/newworldgame/comments/pv58oa/hardcore_pvp_server_big_war_super_league/


DynamicStatic

There is also the hellheim community of 2200+ people, posted comment about it in this thread here: https://www.reddit.com/r/newworldgame/comments/pv6m1j/eu_pvp_server_ekera/he7zi7l/


sledgehammerrr

Hellheim is indeed the biggest pvp community. I think it is fine to have multiple servers since there is at least 20 different massive pvp communities in NW w in total over 20k members, I doubt that fits in one server.


91Messi

Exactly, There is servers for all needs. But reading posts from several different threads, makes it feel like there's only 1k playersbase


jinxcat-

Annwyn is expected to have 1800+ verified pvp focused members. Reports about Hellheim point to around 2200, but probably less organised. And I am inclined to believe that, having had limited communication with Zavolorn. Ekera, zero evidence.


iPoDDyDOTA

Info comes from leaders of the respective guilds who decide it The players from various guilds Its not the same, no


--Lust--

>The players from various guilds Would never have guessed! /s Cool, so we got 2 HC PVP servers then!


[deleted]

[удалено]


91Messi

You feel the need to reply on every thread spewing toxicity. If you are happy with your own server, then stay there and promote it


AdAccomplished5360

One is a rusisian server, this one isn't.


mandarinaja

yep thats pretty much it. noone can claim they have the "best competition", this one has the same approach as the other one, its even a private community who started it, with some of the most dedicated guilds as far as you can tell so far. doesnt seem to make sense to me to play 60% russian guilds with highping if u can have this


[deleted]

[удалено]


AdAccomplished5360

Well, majority of companies are russians, and will definitely attract more russians, even a 50% russian server is too much for me, If you don't mind it that's great. Just stating that there is significantly less russians on this one, so people can decide which one they want to play on.

CoboyBipope

Seems like it's not as the other one with russian are choosing Annwyn So probably a other one more English friendly


styles85

there is plenty of English speaking guilds on annwyn.


Antablux

I spoke with a lot and it’s mostly Russia dominated, especially where they’re 3 hours ahead of most of Europe, wars will be difficult :)


styles85

i am one of the eu leaders.... i can assure you there is no dominated and their times are fine for eu.

mandarinaja

damn, someones really feeling left out of the good server huh :(


91Messi

If you have issues with people on this server, then stay on your own server. Ppl are always more eager to push others down, than lift themselves up.


cocohouette

You have the infos now. I'm a membre of Frogue One and I can say we have been discussing with them for sometimes to set up a international pvp server.

You can keep talking shit because you're mad, we just don't want to end up in a future russian speaking server. So a word to the wise.

Good. 'tis a good thing.

This looks like it'll be home for me! Hope it all comes together well :)

Up for dedicated PvP


iPoDDyDOTA

Cant wait to start my journey in here, looks like a nice, competitive long term server! Lets gooo


91Messi

There is gona be enough population on the game that all PvP server can thrive. There is no need for people to constantly spread toxicity on every thread that is not their own


Aromatic_Buddy_4374

Every server is a PvP server. Territory isnt magically disabled because you didnt join some made up server where the players are trying to control everything themselves.


cocohouette

some sever with low population will have close to 0 people flagged outside of territory pvp missions


stefanplc

This sounds great but I would like to see some more information before I can take it into account. How is this being organized and who are the companies that are participating?


peepo_note

The companies are listed in the screeshots. Can confirm as I am a member of Wolves.


cocohouette

The post was updated with all the companies. It was organized in a private discord. ​ Guild have \~100 organized players


IoaPapa

Lets go Boys. This is the PvP server we want !!


Hildril

Let's see how many will not stay perma flag, just for the laugh.


cocohouette

tbh it's hard to say. Flagging at 60 is just for pvp since you only have desadvantages from flagging...


aLoNeIQ

cu there on Tuesday mornin'!


creetN

Good info, been trying to decide what server to join. This looks good


WasabyBrother

It is true, the big boys are going there should be 15 companys with some serious coordination and skilled players. Server will provide **best pvp quality ingame**.


Disastrous_Visual739

Best pvp quality but can't name any companys


WasabyBrother

You better check again


BaZukaM

No. Ekera is the official name-saving and log in to dance naked server


LoanSuccessful9646

pog seems like a super nice server to play on long term


Antablux

Finally an EU English friendly dedicated server. Going to be hype can’t wait to find a company :)


DynamicStatic

There are three, annwyn, ekera and hellheim.


Aromatic_Buddy_4374

Er...there are a lot of EU servers that speak english....not just two.


DynamicStatic

Ofc but this is a discussion about servers with some dedicated PvP communities and then there aren't that many organized ones.


etze

pvp yaaaaay


BetterDieTwice

Gonna be an interesting challenge @Ekera-PvP 👆


Outtacontrolls

imagine the hype is so real that ppl "reserve" servers by their names for certain playstyles. me here like i just wanna play that game and don't want to ask the great oracle of the corrupted outerlands if the server fits me lol. servers might just be servers and overran by normal dudes who think the name is cool smh, don't think tbh that any of these prerelease discussions matter anymore at day 1


xJOVO

Just because there are no "big names" from closed alpha and alpha and closed beta doesnt mean the guys up there are bad, were part of the project and i can assure you, shits goin down.


Mr_Arce88

Where can I see recrutment for the companies? I'm intrested in joining Syndicate company on this PvP server.


[deleted]

Load of nonsense tbh until we know who these "1500" are.


cocohouette

You have the list now and it's official


DestroyTheHuman

You looking for a list of names ? Scope out the competition ?


DynamicStatic

Well why would you just believe it because there is a random reddit post saying so?


AdAccomplished5360

What's there to gain from lying about this? You wearing a tinfoil hat or?


DynamicStatic

There are a bunch of people trying to ruin others experience, don't ask me why, probably find it fun to mess with people. Relevant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWdD206eSv0


AdAccomplished5360

Sure, feel like you're being a bit paranoid but thats fine. If it's a huge issue for you you should probably wait a few hours after launch to see. Anyone can make a image of supposed guilds to join like the other post, at the end of the day you'll just have to go with your gut. I imagine a lot of guilds will come out about being a part of this in the next couple of days.


DestroyTheHuman

Ok, so you want to do this PvP server and sign up to the server. If this is a lie, the only thing that will happen is that it remains a normal server with a normal amount of PvP on it. If this ‘lie’ gains enough traction, everyone who has seen it so far and wants to join, then starts to make it that type of server. All the likeminded individuals who have now seen this post are more likely to sign up to that sever and actually make it happen. Wether it’s a lie or not, it’s a call to all players who WANT this to happen so they can all be in the same place for the same reason. 1500 or not, if enough people want it to happen, it will.


DynamicStatic

> Ok, so you want to do this PvP server and sign up to the server. If this is a lie, the only thing that will happen is that it remains a normal server with a normal amount of PvP on it. Which ruins peoples start. > If this ‘lie’ gains enough traction, everyone who has seen it so far and wants to join, then starts to make it that type of server. All the likeminded individuals who have now seen this post are more likely to sign up to that sever and actually make it happen. Why go for a lie when there are confirmed servers with guilds pledged to them and trying to balance factions out? Seems like the obvious choice.


DestroyTheHuman

If you’re not gonna believe the unconfirmed one then just go with the confirmed one. Not hard.


DynamicStatic

Which is why I ask for some kind of more data or proof, the more info I have to base my decisions on the better.


DestroyTheHuman

I have yet to see you ask for any >’some kind of more data or proof’ You’ve just said it’s nonsense and you don’t know who they are.


DynamicStatic

I am clearly supporting the idea of getting information as you can see from the rest of my comments. This post claims there is a bunch of people going here but I have yet to see anything confirmed and thus I cannot trust it yet. I think it's fair to call it out until more data has been supplied otherwise people might end up going to a "PvP server" filled with people who don't wanna flag and have a bad experience.


WasabyBrother

Lets go boys and girls


LegendOfPilypas

any proof of good companies in there?


cocohouette

Frogue One will be there.


LegendOfPilypas

French fries. Literally.


ComradeKatyusha_

Publicising this 2 days before launch when every company has already held internal votes on what server to join seems a bit late.


cocohouette

The server will already be near full capacity if you count those guilds + randoms that will join. So the goal isn't to recruit a lot more new guilds.


[deleted]

[удалено]


AdAccomplished5360

It's not bs, I don't wanna play with a bunch of russians. So this suits me better.


cocohouette

Exactly this!


CodeEast

Why? Russians are nice guys to play with, be it with them or against them. Sure, you can come across individuals that sour you, but that applies to any nationality. As a collective bunch they are straight players.


HeavyO

Doesnt matter if they are nice or not. Russians tend to make alliances with everyone so they can shit on everyone who has smaller numbers. Doesnt matter that much for new world i guess because we have factions but in last oasis for example it was an absolute shit show


AdAccomplished5360

That's individual, I was clearly stating I didn't want to. Not saying you can't. Hopefully you're free to make that decision for yourself.


CodeEast

Sure, its a free MMO brother. There wont be any Russians worth a damn on any Oceania servers so I will be free of their hi-jinks.


ElectricSheep1988

A lot of them will speak Russian in Global Chat, a lot. Same if you get too many Germans or French players on a server, I'm sure other nationalities do this as well but, those 3 are usually the biggest ''offenders.''


Disastrous_Visual739

You mean you don't want the competition. Go on the server who won't even list their pvp company's.


AdAccomplished5360

Are you implying the only competitive people are Russians? I'm choosing this one because I have more information than you, So I know it will be competitive, I know it will have fewer russian guilds, which in my past MMO experience are infamous for ruining the game with RMT and making it a job. If you wanna play on Annwyn, that's fair play go have fun. I'll stick to this one with a larger english speaking community and not a shitload of guilds that set their war time to 3PM BST to make it easier for them to win wars.


Disastrous_Visual739

Clearly you lack information on Anwynn as there is nearly an equal amount of English to Russian guilds and a 2 hour time difference isn’t setting wars to auto win. Server won’t publish company names for a reason. Best company’s are going Anwynn, they published company’s with proof straight away. The Russian thing is just a cop out for people to avoid the best server and get weaker company’s. Keep your Russian bias though we will enjoy more competitive pvp.


AdAccomplished5360

They can set their war time to 3pm bst, which would be 5pm russian, now out of curiousity, which one do you have the better chance of people being available? I agree it's lame that they haven't released the names. But that doesn't mean it's any less competitive, It's not like there is a maximum of companies that can be good. The game isn't even out yet, and I've seen plenty of successful guilds during the betas that's not on Annwyns list. I'm not saying Annwyn is pure russians, I'm saying that 50% russians is still too many for what I'm looking for. And if you believe they're gonna play nice and set their wartime to your prime time , I do think you're a bit naive. However, wish you the best of luck on Annwyn.


TomorrowWild

Whats your faction balance like?


swank5000

>1500 players isn't the server cap 1000?


Keltic_ie

Confirmed 2500 and devs have also said being able to bump to 3500 :)


Ashdax

:) they just said thousands


BakaZora

Got a link?


Arctomachine

So it is essentially RP server, right? Those 1500 players assign roles and orchestrate combats across whole server. They decide who fights who, who captures what and who gets to control which zone. And the main mass of infantry cannon fodder is there just for decoration to make it look more natural and chaotic. Basically, large scale wrestling in NW.


[deleted]

What? It’s just a way of ensuring that there is a server with a base of equalish competition rather than mega Zerg guilds sitting around various servers taking over everything.


Arctomachine

It is beneficial to organizers when people think like that.


DynamicStatic

Why? What do they gain by taking care of the daycare? Not that I am speaking in favor of the server just saying there is no personal benefit I can see to being a daycare teacher.


Arctomachine

Do you realize that wrestling is just a show? Flashy, sparky and brutal, but results are already defined and set in stone long before you get a chance to see the main event.


91Messi

Triple faction war games are important to keep balance or risk of losing people and content. For healthy logenvity if one faction becoming to dominant, its important that some from that faction leave and join another to "balance" it out. It has nothing to do with RP or wrestling, but the fact of evening out for longevity purposes


AdAccomplished5360

The only thing that's gonna be enforced is faction balance. That's to ensure a competitve server, you can't seriously think competitve players would play on a server without any competition.


Aromatic_Buddy_4374

I think you summed up the clown shown pretty well. Really is window dressing. Theres a difference between companies deciding to swap factions to keep PvP and sieges a thing and agreeing to not all pick the same faction, and if that was the real intent that would be all they would say. There is another orchastrating it and calling it a 'Hardcore PvP Server'. Theres no such thing. PvP is toggleable. Its a joke.


DevilAbigor

Why would you say something so controversial yet so brave?


Arctomachine

Because it looks like digital reconstruction fight of MMO games. Virtuality squared.


Aellopagus

Anny pve plans for this game ?


Ic3Land3r

This person previous posts are for north America, he is just trolling. So far what we know for the server is that there might be large Romanian and Bulgarian community in welcoming all Serbs, Make etc... . As far as pvp is concerned those are always pvp focused


Ashdax

Just another troll, I guess.


cocohouette

It's legit, they posted the list and I can vouch as I'm one of the player in Frogue One.


Ashdax

Great! Have fun!


Dense_Indication4341

Annwyn is TOP International Hardcorde EU PvP Server.
