OPRaider Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 I've been playing on the server since i got the game. But i noticed recently there's nobody ever at the hubs. It takes forever to go in a PVP match.. So is it time to pack up my things and leave? And what U.S servers would you suggest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iowaboynca Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) yes. Harb has the largest pop currently. I cannot speak on quality of PVP Edited June 17, 2016 by iowaboynca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkBudShankers Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 90% pvp players and guilds from imp and pub side moved to harbinger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leoprietobombero Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 I hope they merge the bastion and some other server (like harbringer) for more population... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the big problem with FTP games that don't try and advertise themselves 5 years after first release. IMHO games like SWTOR and Planetside 2 need relaunches, server merges, and some serious advertising campaigns. I hope this game makes a serious come back or else it might not be around for much longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
americanaussie Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) There's plenty of people around, especially when chapter 16 dropped. I just don't think we're a PVP server. I don't pvp but one of my characters is in a guild that does and they complain about slow pops at times. However, they said that pvp is nicer now, no nasties that are cut throat out for your head if you don't do X damage, that those people all moved to Harbinger. If you're interested in ops though, I'd sign up. I just have no desire to do pvp. Also, I think people do not hang around hubs waiting for pvp to pop, too many gold spammers. Yes, I used to see 120 plus people standing around the fleet before waiting for pvp to pop, but not anymore. Now there's a vanguard section for pvp anyway. Occasionally, I see a few on board personal ships, or Odessen, I've seen numbers above 40 on Tython and Korriban, and the same on other early planets. Yavin 4 usually has a few players around too, we've actually had to wait to kill the commanders/take turns there. You don't see many people on, but there is still a population. I have been in guilds with over 50 active people online at the time when the DvL started up. So the pop is there for PVP, but I strongly suspect it's more of a PVE server. I've even had guildmates acknowledge to beating a team so brutally that pvp stopped popping the rest of the night. And others say that they won't be doing the Pierce or the Droid alliance quests because it's PVP. Edited August 12, 2016 by americanaussie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virus_Bot Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 The Harbinger is starting to die out too now, so you might as well stay here or go to TRE on EU side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRISHMERC Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 the server is dead seeing 5 to 25 people on the fleet is not a good sign. we need a merge or get an account transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthNethus Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Yup. The server is dead. It's been dead for a long time. In order to actually play and enjoy the game, we are now expected to either: A.) Pay $$$/CC in addition to what we are already paying in subscription in order to transfer to a more populated server. or; B.) Start over on a more populated server. I love this game. Seriously.... I REALLY love it. Followed it for years in development. Scoured the forums every day. Played multiple beta phases. Hung on every word of every dev post, hoping for some hint at a release date. The day that my collector's edition box arrived at my door was the happiest moment in all of the many years that I have been gaming. I'm not going to say the usual "Blah blah, gimme what I want or you suck and I quit" BS that seems to by typical of these threads. I think it's safe to say that I will continue to play this game until they shut the servers down. However, with all that having been said... I am incredibly disappointed that BW/EA would not do everything possible in order to keep a happy and healthy subscriber base. If people don't enjoy your game, they will take their money elsewhere. I implore you, please do not kill this game. Merge the bloody servers, for Pete's sake! lol /rant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merge the bloody servers, for Pete's sake! lol /rant I actually came back because I was afraid it was going to die soon and I hadn't finished all the storylines. My dearest pipe dream is that they turn the game into a single player experience when they finally shut it down and release it that way. I know that probably won't happen but I would hate the story told in this game (the first MMO I've ever seen that really focuses on story and being an RPG first and an MMO second) to just die like that before so many of us have experience it in full. I'm a solo player so unpopulated servers don't bother me but seeing unhappy players does. I hope they do a server merge or something soon just for the sake of those who are quitting the game because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfeiffert Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 (edited) Bastion did die and it was so saddening as we watched it go down. According to others there are have been no plans to merge servers due to a server incompatibility. Yet BioWare just changed all the servers to mirror each other here just recently. I would guess that their business model is to wait and see if any of these servers recover and merge later if they do not. The decision is going to come down to whether the server is profitable or not, and Bastion is now too small to have much say.

Neshira Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Honestly for me, as a solo player, the lack of people isn't a problem until it comes down to the market. With 8 players on a planet at peak times the market is full of so little supply that everything is super expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
