Robert_Guiscard Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 I'd recommend The Harbinger for west coast players. It still has a healthy population - not as many as The Fatman, but I also rerolled on the Fatman and, as a west coast player, I have a lot more lag on it as opposed to the Harbinger.

monkgryphon Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Wound in the Force, has plenty of queues popping still. It's West Coast PVP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henu Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 For Australians you can't really go wrong on any (we only have 3 servers), PVP is busy PVE is busy and the RP server also has great numbers on it. Balance is slightly more on Empire but imo the pubs have less children and they PVP very well so its kinda even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocketride Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 (edited) Jedi Covenant is the second highest pop server. Also has a really good percentage mix of jedi/sith. Edited May 21, 2012 by Rocketride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWIN_SUNZ Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 For EU, the Red Eclipse is the highest populated PvE server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irawratih Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 the harbinger pve west coast has always had a good population, one of 3 heavy servers left in the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyzen Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 the harbinger pve west coast has always had a good population, one of 3 heavy servers left in the game Yup, for West Coast players "The Harbinger" is probably best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, Sanctum of the Exalted is the best RP-PvE server! Paige Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZirusZero Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Mind trick It's in the middle, but if enough go there, it's huge. Plus, pubs rule all WZs except Alderaan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DogMeat Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 (edited) I did Fatman, 1 month ago.... There should be no reason for any of us to have to do so. It is a sham that we have to re-roll just to play...yet, summer is coming...it is right? The game was great and all that was really and honestly need was a merge. Hence, $$ prevails above all else. Sleep with the Devil and you get burned. Personally there is nothing real good at what it claims to be, right now, so back to a SWGemu game. That is more fun then anything I can find right now.

Nightfalll Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 (edited) The HARBINGER BY FAR is the best server I have played on.....And I have rerolled four times....Yeah I know, im a sadist.... Check out The Harbinger, pvp ques pop every 5 mins EVEN AT 0200 am thru 0400 am....Great server! Edit: WEST COAST players of course!

Perihelion Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 I've already rerolled twice. I wish I could join the most populated server, but I just can't start over again. I wish they would just close all of the servers except for maybe 15 (in the US), and then I could enjoy queues and grouping again. Real shame, because I do want to play and I do like it, (despite all the flaws) but lack of population is what is causing me to cancel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good place to start is to see which guilds are on the Ideal Guild Quiz. http://www.tortoolbox.com/quiz That's where Sanctum excels. We have good guilds and active guildleaders who cooperate to produce open RP events for all players on Sanctum. Paige Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fhrosty Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Trying to pick out the "top" servers for people to move to will only be detrimental in the long run, even if players are allowed to choose those servers for their free transfers. The ideal goal isn't to squeeze all the people on the dead servers into 5 over-crowded boxes. Ideally you want the population to condense evenly. Instead of "top 5" threads for attracting new blood come transfer-time, we'd be better off advertising the individual merits of our servers. I am seeing a lot of that here, and that's a great thing. I'm just suggesting that it might not be a good idea to try and "rate" them to pick out a "king of the mountain" server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbygoof Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 I personally WILL NOT re-roll with the server transfers comming soon, i would imagine within the month so why not take the time to enjoy the low pop quite setting of leveling your character in peace an quiet then transfer where you want to go then, here are a list of servers I have personally enjoyed the community on looking for where I will XFER to when available. PVE- Jedi Covenant PVP- The Fatman RP PVE-The Ebon Hawk RP PVP- Jung Ma Those are the seemingly most active community's in-game that I had been in, so if thats what you are looking for there ya go.

Outdated? Um... I just updated it this morning. It's like three or four hours old... tops. :-) Check the dates on the actual list of servers. Maybe I mistyped the date or something. I'll check. EDIT Yeah, the dates are right, but it's in the body of the post and people probably need a TL;DR summary, which I've added at the top, that shows the dates and servers.

Paige So where is the highest pop EU server "Tomb of Freedon Nadd" in your list then? It's even listed as no. 2 worldwide at this time. Edit: aha, you probably made the lists when it was night time over here in EU. Which, no offense, makes the list of servers worldwide rather useless. It also points the non-US gamers to the wrong servers... Edited May 21, 2012 by Sauska Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
