Population balance may not seem like a big issue, after all, in other popular MMOs, like World of Warcraft, the balance of a server barely seems to make a difference (trust me I was on a hugely imbalanced server). However, in Warhammer, each zone has a world pvp section that gives specific advantages to whichever side is winning thus making any population imbalances much more serious than in WoW where there is hardly any world PvP.

Now, I don't know about you, everybody has different experiences and everybody plays at different times, but personally, I have no idea what it's like to be in a zone that has the perks for winning in the world PvP. Every single day that I log on, Destruction has the entire territory dominated. It's gotten to the point where I don't even bother checking the status of the zone anymore simply because I already know what's happening; Destruction controls all points, and even if Order did mount an offense against one of them and secured it a "recapture" Destruction team twice there size is probably already on the way to re-secure it.

Likewise, simply PvPing outside a scenario has become tedious. Why bother even attempting to PvP when the likely outcome is that there are going to be twice as many of them as there are of you. It makes no sense, and, as such, I have begun to notice a sharp decline in the amount of world PvP that is actually going on.

I know this is an important issue, especially for Warhammer Online Gold. Mythic built this game from the ground up with PvP in mind and now that it's actually here it looks like many of the PvP options they made available to the players is going by the wayside. As such, Mythic needs to figure out why players are more apt to choosing Destruction and figure out what it can do to bring Order to the same level, otherwise, all the world pvp objectives they spent so much time promoting and implementing might as well have been for nought.
