DarthGrimmlokk Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Why are there more PvP servers than PvE? I've never seen a regular MMO where PvP servers are more populated than PvE servers. I would suggest opening more PvE servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bollah Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Why are there more PvP servers than PvE? I've never seen a regular MMO where PvP servers are more populated than PvE servers. I would suggest opening more PvE servers. In WoW the population was generally 50/50 in terms of PvP/PvE ratio. At times it was 55% towards PvE. They did surveys and polls and I am guessing that is why they went with the servers based on what people picked in beta and the survey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kriegen Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Don't forget the guild registrations, how many guilds flagged themselves as PvP vs PvE. Easy to get an idea of initial server needs based on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PVP now makes up 30% of the wow pop. If the SWTOR pop is 50/50 right now, then ganking will quickly move the PVP pop down to 30%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My account is still active in WoW and there are twice as many PvE servers to PvP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PvP servers are never as full and Bioware is going to be in trouble if they don't open more PvE servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You obviously don't play MMOs! You will see the problem as time goes by. More people prefer PvE servers. Just go survey WoW, Rift, Etc and you will see that. If there are not enough PvE servers they will all be full with queues. Meantime the PvP servers will be low pop and people will be upset there isn't enough people, or balanced factions, and nobody will be happy.

DarthGrimmlokk Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 random useless fact stating FTW! Not random or useless. Go survey any of the other main MMOS, wow, Conan, Rift and you will understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
