BW3 Worlds Dev Blog (edit)

Well the third and final Beta Weekend before launch begins tomorrow and the Dev’s over in Arenanet have posted the blog containing the list of worlds for this weekend. Here’s the list;

NA Servers	EU Servers
Anvil Rock	Abaddon’s Mouth [DE]
Blackgate	Augury Rock [FR]
Borlis Pass	Aurora Glade
Crystal Desert	Blacktide
Darkhaven	Boreal Station
Ehmry Bay	Desolation
Fort Aspenwood	Elona Reach [DE]
Gate of Madness	Far Shiverpeaks
Henge of Denravi	Fissure of Woe
Isle of Janthir	Fort Ranik [FR]
Jade Quarry	Gandara
Maguuma	Gunnar’s Hold
Sanctum of Rall	Jade Sea [FR]
Sea of Sorrows	Kodash [DE]
Sorrow’s Furnace	Lakeside County
Stormbluff Isle	Piken Square
Tarnished Coast	Ring of Fire
Yak’s Bend	Riverside [DE]
	Ruins of Surmia
	Seafarer’s Rest
	Umbral Grotto
	Underworld
	Vabbi
	Whiteside Ridge

Its clear that list is considerably smaller than that of BW2. However, those crafty Devs have as usual a completely reasonable… well reason for this;

As our esteemed Lead Server Programmer Dr.  Stephen Clarke-Willson put it recently, “Quite frankly, we made too many worlds for BWE2 just because we could and not because we should, and thus we had a lot of low population worlds.  This time around we’re focusing our new CPU horsepower into fewer, more populated worlds.”

For those interested I will be back rocking on the server I’ve been using for the past three Beta weekends… Aurora Glade….EDIT: Actually that’s not the case anymore, I will actually be clocking my game time on Lakeside County with the members of the DragonSeason.com guild! Look forward to possibly seeing you all in game and don’t be afraid to come say hello! Who knows you could even make it into my first diary blog on Monday.

Most importantly make sure you all have fun this weekend, its our last chance before LAUNCH!
