GitWitDaForce Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I work a graveyard shift IRL, which leads to my dilemma: Not much to do in game. My sleep schedule is during my servers (Sith Meditation Sphere) "prime time". I have my 50 sith sorcerer, joined a decent sized guild (with about 1-3 who play on my schedule), pvp when I can, get in about 3-4 matches in the morning before they stop popping. Then do some dailys. I've looked for more evening/morning guilds but there don't appear to be any. I tried getting some flashpoints going but no one seems interested. I'm currently going back and clearing all the planets of all quests. Have an alt I'm slowly working on too. Am I just out of luck when it comes to MMOs due to my RL scheduling? Or should I reroll on say a European server perhaps, to get more out of this game. Any and all ideas welcome. ~Alikchi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aetou Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Playing on a server whose peak time matches your playtime would be a good idea, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GitWitDaForce Posted May 9, 2012 Author Share Posted May 9, 2012 Thanks you both. My ping is decent enough to pvp across the oceans, I think. That's a nice feature Torhead has, I'll check it for optimal servers. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GitWitDaForce Posted May 9, 2012 Author Share Posted May 9, 2012 Looks like my best bet are actually Asian/Pac servers. Master Dar'Nala here I come. (can we payed-transfer yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reshals Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 If I am understanding what you are saying you play mostly mornings your time... Say 8am-Noon... If you are west coast you could try playing a high population east coast server since they would be 3 hours ahead of you... it would be like 11am-3pm on that servers region time, might be more players... if you are already on east coast you might be able to play on Euro servers like someone else suggested so long as your connection is very solid. Failing both those options someone suggested just playing on the highest pop server in your region which is a good idea... and with Summer coming up there might be more players online at all times soon, albiet they will be "kids" lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canmore Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 this wont help you atm , but consider transfering to a european or australian server . whatever suites best so you are playing at there prime time . i have a few americans in my european server guild for exactly the reason you said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romiz Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 (edited) Best to roll a server that fits time of day you play. Like for me PST or even Oceanic would be better. Even if I do live in EST (-5 GMT) Edited May 9, 2012 by Romiz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
