Angedechu Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I'm not saying it's all servers, but it's mine. So I want a honest two cents. Is there any chance server transfers will happen ? Because if not, it's useless to continue to level my level 34 sith warrior. (No...not quitting, taking another server) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHeadCapper Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I wouldn't count on it anytime soon although i really don't know. I'd probably reroll, I've done that in almost every MMO i've ever played though lol. I like the heavist pop servers. The Harbinger has really good pop on republic and empire even during off hours if you are looking for PVE, Swiftsure for PVP. Both have lots of aussies during off hours.

Angedechu Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 I would like a high pop server for Republic This said, I put close to 100 hours on my SW, so I'm really disapointed. Really. I picked a server completely at random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked a server completely at random. I picked the Harbinger server. That 1 just screamed at me for some reason and I'm glad I picked it. There are a few servers that aren't half bad though so I'd just reroll if I were you. Just please, no more in the harbinger. It lags bad at peak time...

FSA_shadow Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 (edited) Just came off the game then to go to bed, Fleet had 177 people on there. I think your server is just bad or something.

Thumpor Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 In MMOs, I always pick a server with either a cool sounding name or a recognizable name. Preferably a combination of both, though. Not because I care about the name, but because other people do and such servers usually have a consistently high population. If there was a server called "Darth Vader", you can bet it'd be packed.

KilllerRock Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Saber of Exar Kun is actually pretty decent east coast pvp server. And while empire has more than republic as is the case on most servers, its only like a 2:1 difference instead of 4:1 like some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitso Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Any good suggestion for a server on US East that have a healthy republican pop ?

rarax Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Telos Experiment server has 30 people on the fleet at peek times ilum almost always seems to be below 10 people. Yet, this server is labeled as a Standard Population server how ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nyteblades Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I play on shadowhand and i can log into my sith almost anytime and fleet is packed. Log into my jedi wich is my main and the fleet might have 1/3rd of the pop on it the imp side does. I dont realy like the imps so i dont play them much. But getting flash points and such is very hard as our rep pop is way below par. And after the fiasco with the latest patch its only gotten worse left my guild because about 40% of it mainly high lvls quit over that stupid patch.

Fohox Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I'm on a low pop server also. Even though I'm only approaching level 30 I don't feel like re-rolling and starting over from scratch. Gonna hold out a little while longer and hope they offer transfers soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scopian Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 (edited) I'm not saying it's all servers, but it's mine. So I want a honest two cents. Is there any chance server transfers will happen ? Because if not, it's useless to continue to level my level 34 sith warrior. (No...not quitting, taking another server) I feel for you, OP. I'm in the same situation and to be honest this is the ONLY reason I am not renewing my sub. My server had a queue each night of the week when the game started. I love my character, I like the gameplay, I'm willing to forgive just about any bug/shortcoming because the game has HUGE potential as long as Bioware keeps it heading in the right direction. I tried rerolling when my server population really started to die...but I couldn't bring myself to do it. The game loses a lot of its charm when you try to start from scratch and spacebar through everything since you just did the exact same quests in nearly the same exact order the week before. Here is Swiftsure activity level...here is Harbinger....and here is my server, Krath. TOR is suffering from the same thing that stopped Rift from being more successful, currently. They opened too many servers because of the popularity of the game at launch, but didn't close them fast enough and people will leave instead of rerolling. They held out on LFG when the vocal minority of the forums was resentful toward the idea and people left. One of my first posts on this forum was suggesting server transfers or mergers and I got ripped to shreds by forceboys who refused to believe servers could be getting dwindling in populations already. This post was prior to search or post history (although I did repost it later). I'm social, I hardly if ever used the LFG in WoW, but I can't seem to get the six other people on my planet to want to group up (or respond) for flashpoints and group content.

Big_Luvin Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 They need to merge servers if this is happening. If its happening on one its happening on another. +1. Just curious, why are people so against letting people join other servers or merging? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melkathi Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I'm in favour of server mergers. Though I would like to keep my server name. I like Space Slug. I don't like having our server population drop to two thirds of what it had been. Merge a light population server with ours, please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ippollite Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 People dont like merging because it says that the game is contracting in numbers. It veryt very likely is. It always will after the first month is up. But the intention is to keep servers going until the word of mouth spreads and the numbers start picking up again (as people either hear about the game or older players come back after a few improvements/changes). In truth i think people are more aware nowadays that there is a balance to be struck by initial (short term) interest in the game and consistent (long term) interest in it. I think we're all a little less knee jerk on merging, but it still carries that connotation, and certain people will be doing everything to suggest that swtor failed before it even really got out of the door, and server merging will be used as ammunition to make the point. So its all PR. And it sucks that titles use players as pawns in this battle of attrition, but its just how it goes. Wow had the same low pop servers for almost its entire life span and refused to merge those servers, and i beleieve swtor will be no different. Maybe. Because maybe the time is right for a more grown up discussion on the reality of it all rather than the politiking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angedechu Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 What boggles the mind is that my server on WoW, Eredar US, is widely considered 'dead''...and have 10 times the pop of my TOR server. Seriously, I'm bringing my toon to 50. But I'm not rerolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MercArcher Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Any good suggestion for a server on US East that have a healthy republican pop ? Port Nowhere has one of if not the strongest republic side in the game. We have the World #1 guild and many other guilds. We occasionally even camp the imp base in Ilum with most of the time being raid vs raid. Imps have numbers, but republic has skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
