ilocke Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 My main server is Wound in the Force and I am on the Republic side. I'm not 50, but I have a lvl 40, a 37, and a couple teens. I rarely ever run into Imperials. I ran into some a few times on Nar Shaddaa, which was my first experience, then a couple on Tattoine, and I think I ran into one, maaaybe two on Alderaan. I didn't run into a single one on Balmorra. I put it in my head that maybe everyone is 50 and once I get to 50, I will start having open world fights, but then I remembered some of the other games I've come from where a big part of the fun is running into people while out doing missions and leveling and fighting there. I am enjoying the playstayle of the game and the story, but wondering where everyone is? Is it my server, or are other people experiencing this? I created an Imperial on Rakata Mind Prison to see if it's any different, but I'm only in my teens so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fujah Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 The servers aren't dead but before 50 I don't think there's much world PVP going. I rarely see a Pub. Even at lvl 41, I might have seen a half dozen so far, nothing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely think there are more imperials, but thats good, because I also enjoy open world pvp and run into it fairly often. It is definitely more prevalent on certain planets though.

Soul_of_Flames Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I'm on Republic side and I've only spent time with one character, but I definitely see more Republic players than Empire... and I spend a lot of time exploring areas of planets that are more Imperial controlled than Republic. I can probably count the number of imperials I've found on one hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marili Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 dark reaper republic side is dead, only 20-40 people on station on peak as heavy-very heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soul_of_Flames Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 There are too many servers, imo. They should be condensed... and hopefully without any data loss... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarheartZero Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Corellian Run - Republic Around 150-170+ in fleet on peak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When servers were down this morning I started to look at all the servers in NA and the ones in Europe. Wow, do they have a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilocke Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 I agree that condensing some of the servers would be a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mannic Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 (edited) When servers were down this morning I started to look at all the servers in NA and the ones in Europe. Wow, do they have a lot. Yup. Right around 200 in total. And about 190 of them never fill up any more, and there are maybe a total of 50 or 60 that ever even hit heavy during peak. It's getting bad. In North America the number of servers that ever hit heavy is around 30 now. Oh, and by the way-- "heavy" is not exactly a guarantee that a server is well-populated. It may still have a very real probllem on Republic side, or in the higher-level zones. Just because a server says "heavy" for 2-3 hours a day during absolute peak doesn't mean the server is well populated. It means that for 2-3 hours a day during peak it's well-populated.

LeonBraun Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I agree that condensing some of the servers would be a good idea. It's too bad so many were released in the first week when people were whining about queue times... The devs should have held their ground and made more wait. Hopefully there will still be a lot of growth for these servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WookieBob Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 oo the population in fleet is a good sample representation of total server pop? right tell me another one..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blastfemur Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 dark reaper republic side is dead, only 20-40 people on station on peak as heavy-very heavy. Dark Reaper had 130 on today at Republic fleet during peak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stejo Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Yes, they should have held back, but as you know, the community knows best. Oh the whining that went on. The community was almost unanimously asking to raise the server caps, not introduce new servers. That brilliant idea can be credited to bw.
