WOW i hope so that looks cool for a map that is
Doesn't seem like it; there's no third base and if this was a leak there would probably have been a big fuss over it by now.
Edit: NM better answers.
It's said on GW2Guru that this map is only 1/4 of the map of one single world. So we all know there are 3 maps for each world and one central map, in total 4 maps. This map you show is then only 1/16 of the total map. Thats insane lol O.o
No. I believe this map is 1/4 of the entire WvWvW zone. By that I mean it is only 1 map of the 4 in total.
But that would be too small.
There is quite a large portion of the map that is shaded out. You can see the trail that leads to the top and you can't see how large the structures are compared to players. We also don't know how large the other 3 maps are.
Not necessarily, since we can't even see the whole map (revealed and zoomed out). Also is this even legit? Could just be photoshoped.
? Four large regions sounds good enough to me for WvW PvP

But the devs said once that players can get to the enemy home map by only going through central map. And if you look at the map above you can clearly see players cross to the east keep by going through southern area of west wing. So not through central map. How do you explain that then?
From the looks of it, this is the central map.
no, too small.
You don't know that.
1) There is much of it that is shaded out.
2) You don't know how large it is in scale to the players.
Wow, if that is 1/4th of the PvP world map that is pretty awesome! It reminds me a bit of the DAOC frontiers...a great sign for world pvp
would be careful wishing for anything bigger than that, if its 1/4th would be a big gamble hoping for enough players inside the mists to fill it out with players, which would be neccesary to make WvWvW any fun at all, as they said there is small objectives to get through in the mists, which properbly aint exciting on its own, but needs the PvP....on the other hand ofc need it to be big enough to not get too packed, and well feel like a part of the game world

WoW...this map is essentially comparable to normal PvE zones in size....think about that.
I used to TL;DR, but then I took a bullet point to the footnote.
That map doesn't look like a single area, it seems more like a piece of the centre map. The West portal hill is what makes me think that because from what Colin Johannson has told us, all the different worlds will have portals that lead to their own map. With that in mind, I feel that this is just a piece of the west corner of the centre map.
This is not a game.
No. This is a part of the center map. If you look at the right most part of the picture, you can see an area labled west portal hill. In between theast and west areas is a castle called Castle Bailey. It also shows a roan leading north. This indicates that there would be a 3rd area called north portal hill. Given how large the east and west regions appear to be, we can expect the northern area to be about the same side, which gives us a rough estimate of how large thetotality of the map is.
I used to TL;DR, but then I took a bullet point to the footnote.
Are you sure you quoted the right person? I pretty much said what you said.
This is not a game.
how...strange. I think I completely misunderstood. i thought you had said that this was only a part of the western zone. Sorry.
I used to TL;DR, but then I took a bullet point to the footnote.
If you are on one of the losing sides what will stop you to join the current winning world? This will lead to inbalance and will make the whole WvW syste to dead end. This is a big question-mark roaming in my mind right now.
ArenaNet have already said that they realize this and are working on ways to stop it. They will most likely reveal them when we get a blog post about PvP or WvWvW.
Could be that when you transfer worlds you won't be able to enter the current www battle until they rotate the servers again.
Wow, this is actually the most simple yet elegant and effective solution I've heard so far. If this hasn't been implemented yet, they should, it's ideal. Great idea
edit: meh, I misread the statement, I thought you meant that players wouldn't be able to join the servers they're in combat with, only afterwards when the battle was done and a new rotation would start.

Dont think they will restrict ppl from playing pvp for 2 weeks.
This is good news, it seems I missed that interview
