It's a shame, this game was fun back in the day when it was more popular. The whole point of playing MMO's is to play with other people, guess I'll move onto another game now then.

To be fair, a lot of us only play this because it's KOTOR 3 and couldn't care less that it's an MMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're queueing as a DPS it will take a while. Tanks less time although the low level queues are not that populated. Also remember it's Friday morning if your on a US server so many people are at work right now. Edited March 27, 2015 by FerkWork Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Wulff Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 You need to consider when you are playing it is mid day in the us right now kids are in school and most people are at work. The game changes in population depending on the time of day you play. Prime time is after dinner in your time zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The games still fun to play and has enough players on most servers that you should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FerkWork Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) Side note: If you are on JC and around lv 20ish I will queue up my sin tank for FPs.

Anaesha Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) People have to remember a few things. First is server pop. If You're on a server that has a lower pop then say Harbinger it's going to be that way Second is time Zones and time of day. Some people are either sleeping or at work. The matter of soloing a Heroic depending on your class that is completely possible if it's a +2 and you're careful if it's a 4 man then the guy is a retard. 4 mans are not soloable unless you are way over lvl for them and by that time the rewards are worthless. The fact it is getting harder to get groups for Heroics is why I support the idea of being able to fill empty group slots with companions.

The games still fun to play and has enough players on most servers that you should be fine. Red Eclipse (EU server) currently at standard traffic. Leveling up one of my chars (41) but getting bored of empty planets and no success in queues for periods of time. You say play during peak times but what does that say about the status of the player base EDIT: Furthermore, I'm trying to remain optimistic but I have been playing since this game was released and it has never been this bad Edited March 27, 2015 by Carinyc Edit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the Progenitor, playing with my Guardian Tank, it took me around forty minutes to get a group for Cademimu. This was last week. Fortunately, the people I got thrown with were both fun to play and knew their stuff, but forty minutes? Frustrating, especially if you're trying to run heroics on the side on any given planet.

Halinalle Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) Been queuing for multiple flashpoints and planetary locations for several hours... just got told to solo a heroic Has been like that since 3.0. "Does any lvl50-55 want HK part from Foundry HM? I can help" "You can solo it." *facepalm* Also most of the players are just angry or super serious. No more good groups for even KDY during leveling. By good I mean the groups that know what they are doing but you can still fool around and nobody will die or get angry, "go there kill everything, have some fun" groups.

Arlon_Nabarlly Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) The matter of soloing a Heroic depending on your class ...4 mans are not soloable unless you are way over lvl for them and by that time the rewards are worthless. There are a number of Heroic 4s that can be solo'd depending on what they are and what class you are. If they are a heroic 4 that doesn't require killing mobs a stealth class can easily solo at most any level. A non stealth may be able to solo if they are good player and can CC / avoid mobs. If they require you to kill mobs then it's not worth the time even if you could do it. I've been able to solo a Heroic 4 that required killing mobs by finding isoloated mobs / using CC / etc. But in general doing that took a long time and several deaths, the reward didn't outway the time spent.

JattaGin Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 On the Progenitor, playing with my Guardian Tank, it took me around forty minutes to get a group for Cademimu. This was last week. Fortunately, the people I got thrown with were both fun to play and knew their stuff, but forty minutes? Frustrating, especially if you're trying to run heroics on the side on any given planet. I can confirm this for The Progenitor. It feels like a ghost server at the moment (and I have seen several bad times before on this, my favourite server). If I am lucky, I get 2 GSF per hour. The only pops I get in a timely manner are the tacticals. Luckily, my guild is doing just fine and we group up, but apart from that... Here is one indicator which should make BW worry: This morning, there was not one pack of the new Masters delivery up for sale on the GTN. Neither a single pack nor a hypercrate. The last pack was already hard to get on the GTN, while previous packs have been on sale plenty of times, even until today. I saw one hypercrate of the new delivery for sale yesterday. That is all. The cartel stuff which you find on the GTN massively (!) dropped since the last pack - which was the first pack after the slot machine disaster. Now I know that some people will say: Don't bring that stupid topic up again, but I have an excellent market overview, especially on the cartel items ever since the first shipment arrived. And I have never seen so few offers for cartel stuff before. It started with the last pack and this one is even worse. Luckily for us, there are players on other servers who bought hundreds of packs for real moolah. It seems like this could be mainly a Progenitor-issue. I recently started a char on another server to see how it is there. So far, quite quiet as well. TL;DR: At the moment, I got a bad feeling about the population on The Progenitor.

bdatt Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) I don't know how other MMOs have gone, but except for my SW during 12xp (last of 8 ACs) I've done nothing but max level content in over 15 months (when my 7th hit 55). So it wouldn't surprise me that in a 3+ year old MMO a lot of the people leveling are a) people that just play this as a solo kotor3 for the story or b) people power leveling their newest fotm class just to get to endgame. Despite a lot of forum complaints I find endgame rather fulfilling which is where most of my time is spent. Edited March 27, 2015 by bdatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curbhunter Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 And honestly this is why they need cross server for FP at lest...I know I know some hate the idea but the wait can be painful sometimes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as another poster said, if you are dps, it will be a long wait for anything other then a tactical. Unfortunately, that is what happens when there is a major surplus of a certain class. 3ven if the server is populated, you will have same problem.

Shame I'm levelling imp side this time. Seems like we're on the same server around the same level. I gave up flashpoints -GF groups are rarely fun -people usually just rush to the end, no chit-chat , no fooling around just target- and no matter how interesting group invitation I'm trying to make -no one responses in general chat. I used to have some success on the rep side few months ago. Best line: help me Hero of Tython, u're my only hope -this seemed to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
