NajeeSensei Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) http://www.torstatus.net/shards/us Keep in mind what time of day you're playing in and the timezone region of the severs. Edited May 9, 2014 by NajeeSensei Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kremsau Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I play on The Harbinger and it's generally very populated, especially on the beginning planets. Its not a problem finding Heroic partners on the planets down the road either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illgot Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 BC. First to hit Standard/Heavy, last to become Light in population. It's West coast but still playable on the East Coast where I live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanerb Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 For heroic missions, you need to try weekends where there are people in the planets. Also people do not play the content for leveling anymore, so everyday there are less and less people doing those missions. Thanks to KDY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle_Robo Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) I play all US servers and the most populated one is Harbinger. BC gets "Heavy" status faster and more often because it takes less players to reach that status, and NOT because it has the highest population. PVP servers tend to be less populated than PVE ones.

arunav Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 If you transfer a character to another server, does the benefits of your currently legacy go with it? Or does everything reset? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trancejeremy Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 I play on Bergeron and while it always says it is the heaviest server load, I can't believe that means it's most crowded. Post-Tattoine, most planets are completely deserted. 8-20 people on most planets. Like right now, I'm on Corellia, and there are 17 people.

Solloby Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 APAC pve servers were merged with Harbinger so it would be a pretty heavily populated server all day round I would imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corellia has a very narrow level range and a lot of people skip it because by 48-49 you can do BH/Section X dailies for better xp gain. Individual planet population is a bad indication of sever population. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illgot Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 BC has the highest population. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwena Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 I'd suggest the Harbinger as well. I like being on a well populated server and I am quite happy here. And having APAC players around is a nice plus. And I'm gonna agree with one of the previous posters that the population status labels don't coincide with specific numbers that are the same across all servers. Given what I have observed in my admittedly limited play time on Begeren Colony, I would be very surprised if it had more players than the Harbinger.

BC has constant flashpoints, PvP, Ops, GSF and people leveling on planets. Plus it is only very late at night (around 1-2 a.m. during weekdays and 4 a.m. on the weekends) that BC falls down to one instance of Fleet. The "force" has nothing on solid number from official server status and from a website that takes population samples. I played on four different servers and settled on BC because of their higher population and often lower more stable GTN prices.

Uncle_Robo Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 That site you are referring to, shows which servers reach "Heavy" status the most often. However, this does NOT reflect actual population numbers. All you have to do is log into both servers and compare the population. You will find Harbinger will have a HIGHER population than BC even though BC has "Heavy" status and Harbinger is only at "Standard". I have been tricked into playing BC once it reaches "Heavy" status, only to log out and log into Harbinger to find a higher population on Harbinger even though Harbinger is still at "standard' status. Another good indication of population is GTN listings. Compare the two, and you will find Harbinger has more listings with more competitive prices. http://www.torstatus.net/shards/us/stats What you feel and what is happening are two different things.
