Wrong...flat wrong jedi Convenant went full, Fatman had a 35 min que, several others, just cant remember their names. MOST were standard. BTW, Standard is what you want for server stability anyway. Keep trying tho Im here all week to help with the misinformation.
ROFL! People spouting out this TOTAL NONSENSE! Have you even rolled characters on one of those standard load servers? Did you?? I bet you did not!!!
Standard servers are Ghost towns! Light servers are just dead! (feel sorry for those people stuck on those).
I have characters on two servers who are light most of the time and hit standard during EU and US primetime.
30-40 people in Fleet during primetime. 15-28 people on Corussant. 5-12ish people on the average other planet.
That's primetime for you on Standard load servers! Over half of all the servers have that kind of pop during primetime! One third don't ever come beyond Light! Then you got just a handful (mostly due to desperate people rerolling there) that hit heavy/very heavy, with 1 or 2 queue'ing.
If you call that a healthy population?? lol. Just lol!
Do I need to explain the different instances on each server? I was in instance 1 yesterday on Jedi Covenant, Fleet had 180+ people, went to Instance 2 150 + on Fleet. Now I went to Tatooine where 100 + doing world event, No idea though if that counts IMP players as well, dont think so. Right now on Tatooine middle of the day 75 on Tatooine 2 other instances are available. I doubt you play, but spewing crap. For the screen shot folks i shall do so when able ok? =D
Even with those numbers it still falls short for a MMO. Should be in the 1000s per zone not hundreds.
Dude its one zone..... ONE zone 10 other planets KK? Get it FFS, LEARN the game before commenting

Just have to laugh how biofans post something like its set in stone good information, even though its based on a f2p giveaway. I am patient, will gladly come back to this two weeks from now for its "reevaluation".
To what end? It's a subject I find highly pointless, what does it matter where any game settles in terms of numbers? That should only matter to EA. The only reason people on these forums even bring it up is to rub into someones face, be it fans or non. Which is as petty as petty gets.

They could name their population labels using drink sizes and it would have the same effect. Small, Medium, Big Gulp, Super Big Gulp. Do I know how many ounces are in a Small? Nope. I just know it is tiny relative to the others. In their defense every MMO does it and it's pretty darn frustrating that they can't just post the actual population of the server.

I don't usualy post but the people saying the game is dead are just wrong at least on my server anyways we have a que time every night for anywhere from 20mins to an hour last night was over an hour. My guild on both sides has grown in numbers not decreased. I'm sure it has lost subs but still doing well. I understand you don't enjoy the game but if you don't why are you still paying for a sub? And if your not how are you saying what the pops are before the free week they handed out?

It's like saying that server is pink, orange, red, blue, green.
We don't know the numbers behind those words.
Exactly, both sides in this debate are arguing based on heresay, guess work, and wishful thinking.
We have the peeps who wanna bring up the recent EA layoffs. As though it's all about TOR because it is mentioned, yet many of EA's titles this year didn't perform as expected. You have the others clinging to a statement made about intial numbers, which we all should know at this point is meaningless.
The only motivation here is to stick it to each other, a proverbial middle finger is what this thread is and just about any post within it.

That's because they artificially inflated the populations of the servers by providing free game time for old and "valued" subscribers.
Come back to me in 30 days again and we'll see how well the game is doing. People will go back to requesting much needed server merges and characters transfers because the majority of the servers are dead and will continue remain to be ghost towns.
The apologists for this game are just downright pathetic. I am glad that i stopped playing this poorly executed mess. The community is even worse.

Servers dont generally hold more than 2500 people, and most games struggle when you get a couple hundred people in the same area.
I do remember EQ's peak when the bazaar would have 500 traders + all the customers. Probably the only zone in MMORPG history to be consistently over 200 people, I think on most servers it still is

Seeing EA suffer is very heartwarming to me. Not on a gaming level but a business one. As for the fan base. Let me remind you that I was a beta tester, who was banned from the forums because I discussed the clunky responsiveness of the game. Spoke negatively about the hypocracy of the beating on a single boss like WOW issues. Not very heroic concept, and said it would come back to haunt them if they took this WoW approach.
Not only was i banned, but the thread had over 200+ fanbois telling me I was a hater and troll. I shook that off. Even bought my son a copy. But then when basic facts about the game became obvious to all but the demented few, its hard to not enjoy the misery they so deserve. So like I said, I'm more than willing to once again wait it out and get the final laugh here. To me, there is no doubt about where this game is headed, its just a matter of when, not if. Pardon me for smiling for being patient.

Im not apolgizing for anything,Just for kicks how do you even back up your statement "artifically inflated" server status? Just here to clear up the misinformation somewhat. BTW, This same argument started 2 Weeks after launch LOL, then it was after the 1st billing period, then it was after the first game update, then it was 1.2 update, whats next? Thats right anything the GW2 shills can make up. BTW, GW2 will be out soon, cut and paste these comments to a word file and prepare to use them again, cause guess what those forums will be the SAME way. =D

EA stock sure is tanking... closed at 15-month low today.
EU server Trask Ulgo (EN RP-PVE)
US server Lord Adraas (EN RP-PVE)
It may not be tanking but it sure isn't blowing up.
LOL, been gaming for 20 yrs, sooooo it bothers you that i say KK, FFS? Internet is a weird place, duh, I know
But this page means hardly anything.
It's like saying that server is pink, orange, red, blue, green.
We don't know the numbers behind those words.
Useless scale is useless.
They could name their population labels using drink sizes and it would have the same effect. Small, Medium, Big Gulp, Super Big Gulp. Do I know how many ounces are in a Small? Nope. I just know it is tiny relative to the others. In their defense every MMO does it and it's pretty darn frustrating that they can't just post the actual population of the server.
Enter a whole new realm of challenge and adventure.
For what it's worth, I've used them often in chat and I'm fair bit older than you.
By the way, greetings from Ottawa, fellow maple syrup guzzler. I've got family in Edmonton.
Exactly, both sides in this debate are arguing based on heresay, guess work, and wishful thinking.
We have the peeps who wanna bring up the recent EA layoffs. As though it's all about TOR because it is mentioned, yet many of EA's titles this year didn't perform as expected. You have the others clinging to a statement made about intial numbers, which we all should know at this point is meaningless.
The only motivation here is to stick it to each other, a proverbial middle finger is what this thread is and just about any post within it.

I'm just teasing is all!
Love me some maple syrups!

That's because they artificially inflated the populations of the servers by providing free game time for old and "valued" subscribers.
Come back to me in 30 days again and we'll see how well the game is doing. People will go back to requesting much needed server merges and characters transfers because the majority of the servers are dead and will continue remain to be ghost towns.
The apologists for this game are just downright pathetic. I am glad that i stopped playing this poorly executed mess. The community is even worse.
Servers dont generally hold more than 2500 people, and most games struggle when you get a couple hundred people in the same area.
I do remember EQ's peak when the bazaar would have 500 traders + all the customers. Probably the only zone in MMORPG history to be consistently over 200 people, I think on most servers it still is
Sounds like Rift 2.0
I find it all rather pathetic. Especially statements like this. You actually think it's just fans spreading nonsense? If people didn't instigate this perpetual fued it wouldn't exist as it does.

Seeing EA suffer is very heartwarming to me. Not on a gaming level but a business one. As for the fan base. Let me remind you that I was a beta tester, who was banned from the forums because I discussed the clunky responsiveness of the game. Spoke negatively about the hypocracy of the beating on a single boss like WOW issues. Not very heroic concept, and said it would come back to haunt them if they took this WoW approach.
Not only was i banned, but the thread had over 200+ fanbois telling me I was a hater and troll. I shook that off. Even bought my son a copy. But then when basic facts about the game became obvious to all but the demented few, its hard to not enjoy the misery they so deserve. So like I said, I'm more than willing to once again wait it out and get the final laugh here. To me, there is no doubt about where this game is headed, its just a matter of when, not if. Pardon me for smiling for being patient.
Im not apolgizing for anything,Just for kicks how do you even back up your statement "artifically inflated" server status? Just here to clear up the misinformation somewhat. BTW, This same argument started 2 Weeks after launch LOL, then it was after the 1st billing period, then it was after the first game update, then it was 1.2 update, whats next? Thats right anything the GW2 shills can make up. BTW, GW2 will be out soon, cut and paste these comments to a word file and prepare to use them again, cause guess what those forums will be the SAME way. =D
