And that's just in tier 4.
There are several groups in Bastion and a few in Bilerot. I see 1 group in Lost Vale atm
Tier 3 had loads of action 1 hour ago when I was on my alt, Destruction failed to take the keep in Avelorn and ran away to take the bo's in Saphery. Around 70-80 people fighting in tier 3, and that was just in the RVR area. The others are afk at the warcamp waiting on scenario queues. Some are probably questing, but I can't see them.

Sure, they are. Look at the EQ2 and VG forums. They claim their servers are populated, too.
I played the game in Sept, and I guarantee there were more people back then, than now. WAR is a pathetic ghost town shot down by its own design.
Sounds like my server Greyhooff. In fact since we recently had population transfers to Phoenix throne, its gotten even more busy than it was, as hard that is to believe. Tier 4 is hopping every night. Can't hardly hold a single keep for more than an hour, they keep switching back and forth, no matter which zone its in.

Woe to thee, the pierce-ed.
150+? That's nothing
I've seen 300+ frequently in the same pairing at T4. I imagine it'll be a bit crazy once the general playerbase settles at T4. Currently most servers seem to have 10% of the player base at T4. Imagine when the general populace reaches it.
Order tonight just locked down Thunder Mountain with a massive zerg of 150-200 people

Destruction fought them in TM all night, it was a huge battle that lasted several hours
Ther RVR is more heated right now than ever before, with numbers doing open RVR that we couldn't really have imagined in the early days of the server
are you getting money for this story ? are you a Mythic employee ?
i havent seen 150 players in a long time at once on Karag eight peaks
lol, yeah right. That's not exactly the picture my bud in WAR reports.

People only need to log in to see the reality, and not trust negative propaganda and hearsay from career trolls. As we speak Order is close to locking down some t4 zones. If your 'bud' is anything like you, his word is about as worthless as that game AoC. Whats funcom stock down to now a days, anyway?

Or are you just being ignorant? he is not lying. Their were well over 200 people and if you were playing you would know that. Do you know just couple of days back Order locked Praag with 200+ people on karak Eight Peaks? now go back to your troll cave.

Oh and you believe your word is worth more then his? If his word is worthless, then your is as well. Might be even less then that considering you took the time to throw in a cheap shot at Funcom. Like Warhammer is oh so much better off right now.
Edit: To Getalife. You all keep mentioning 200 people like it is an impressive number. L2 has had sieges bigger then that. DAOC had sieges bigger then that. Hell I've even seen battles bigger then that back in old school Anarchy Online. I hate Eve-Online with a passion, and I've seen video's with more people than that. I have a hard time trying to see why you think 200 people RvRing on One server out of x amount that Mythic has currently going is so "impressive".

I didn't tell anyone to believe my word. I told people to see for themselves instead of believing anti-WAR BS from people who have a long history of trashing on the game. Funny how you somehow thought it was the right thing to do to come to the defense of someone that has a long history of 'cheap shots'. Awfully one sided of you. But just the kind of thing I would have expected from that camp.

Ever heard the expression two wrongs don't make a right? Even if he does have a long history of cheap shots. When you make one as well, you are no better then he is. You do not fight fire with fire.

I don't doubt it happened the problem is K8P is problay the only server in the EU that has anywhere near the population needed to see this sort of action on a regular basis even after the transfers.
(Just waiting for all the but my server replys:D)

You seems about equally bad to me.
Anyways, WAR X-Fire statistic seems to at least to be almost stable now, it is still going down a bit but it is much slower and I would be willing to bet that most that quits now are from EU, GOA seems to still making a mess.
The game is neither doing good or bad right now, it is currently probably the 3rd biggest western MMO and that ain't so bad. Only bad news is that it is still not doing good in EU, but in Us they seems to turn the game around now.
150+ T4 players at peak hours sounds about what I would expect on a normal server, I would also expect that people get bored with the scenarios then and start with the RvR seriously.
Still, not time yet for me to start again, and maybe I get an US version then, since GOA are killing the game in Europe.

It's spelled KaraK Eight Peaks, with a K
And your bluff has been called, as I play on KEP (as do a couple of other people who post here), so your lies are found out
There's hundreds of people in tier 4 alone every afternoon and evening on KEP, every single day
Tonight, at the very moment you were posting that KEP was empty, there was a huge war in tier 4 with 150-200 people fighting - all just in ONE open RVR zone. And people doing scenarios. And that was just in tier 4.
Tier 3 was also very active with huge battles in Avelorn and Saphery, as well as warbands roaming the Greenskin/Dwarf tier 3 to capture the keeps and bo's there
Here's the order post about tonight's hours of battles:

Thanks for all the help to all that were here, thanks to Destro for the great keep sieges at the start.
Again, we said we are capping TM tonight, and we delivered.
There are a million expressions in this world to make any point or argument. All of them equally meaningless.
Step off your soapbox preacher... I suspect you are not qualified for the position. All that matters, are the facts. My server is very busy in t4. A known hater who doesn't play the game responds to my post and says it isn't. I say people should see for themselves instead of believing the negative propaganda on these boards. Disagree with that or not, I don't care. What I do care about, is some random person thinking for some reason they have the authority to tell people what to do or not do. That is a wrong, and as you say, two wrongs do not make a right, eh?

Woe to thee, the pierce-ed.
Arent you the one who was posting endless ranting speeches about how terrible WoTLK was and that you hated it but couldnt stop playing it and couldnt wait to get back to WAR? Now you're back to playing WAR and you're posting mega-publicity posts for that game at the other end of the spectrum.
There really isnt any middle ground with you is there. I get the impression that you need to post on these forums to enjoy the game more than you actually are.......almost as though by proving to the rest of the world that the game is great it somehow increases your own opinion of it. Its like you are working yourself up into a fanatical frenzy with your own hype.
Yeah.....ummm......WAR is where its all happening lol
lol, yeah right. That's not exactly the picture my bud in WAR reports.
People only need to log in to see the reality, and not trust negative propaganda and hearsay from career trolls. As we speak Order is close to locking down some t4 zones. If your 'bud' is anything like you, his word is about as worthless as that game AoC. Whats funcom stock down to now a days, anyway?
I rarely troll and didnt sign up to mmorpg.com forums on 10.8.08 either, like the OP.
And what "log in to see the reality" means is pay another $15 to see a disaster of a game that is losing players due to a total lack of vision.

Exactly. The OP seems to be forgetting that logging in actually costs money. I have played the game and I have seen quite clearly how much it sucks. There is no way that I will ever be going back to that game. It had its peak population in the first month.
In other news - in EVE Online a regular thing of 500 vs 800 led to a almost 3000 vs. 2000 fight.
150 - wow
Much like WoW I don't care how many people are playing the game. It's not a popularity contest. The game was fun for about a month, after that it was tedious. 200 or 200,000 it doesn't matter a bit. WAR is a poor follow up to DAoC which was 10x the game that this weak watered down carebear fest is. The world is far too small, and is cut up into even smaller little sections. I thought AoC was pathed and linear, but WAR is far worse.

Sorry, I was subscribed for 2 months, wth would I give them another chance? I even talked my brother into buying it during my first week, of course, he cancelled, as well. If they want me back, they can give me some extra time for paying to beta their game.
Seriously, what the fuck is this? I'm sorry to cuss to whichever moderator views this, but have you guys turned into kids yet again or what? One post states his server is delcining with population numbers, so someone post a retaliation post showing how wrong he has got to be. And this doesn't at all sound like some junior high shool shit? Seriously people, where is the true discussion material in this? It's not that this point cannot be debated, but what is the point of posting this crap. The only discussion coming from all this non-sense is the ones who are going to say your correct, or the ones who want to say your wrong and flame you for it. So there, you got what you wanted. Can we now move on to something more meaningful, pls? I swear, everyday I look at any of these gaming site forums, It hurts to see what people have turned into.
I'm not saying this post shows anything past what anyone else has done here, but someone needs to state something, dammit. Quit this shit, quit posting population threads, and just play your dam game. If people are moving away from your game to others, either look like a duck and follow or don't and stay. But for the love of god and everything holy, if you dont play the game, hate the company, or just hate your life in general, leave it at that. Don't make a post just to be an ass. It's not needed or wanted and only makes viewing forums more worthless then it is already.
For your own health, I'd suggest you don't read forums for a few weeks

Sadly, my health has nothing to do with it. It's the travisty these boards have turned into. It's like im in highschool all over again. It was enough that people have to deal with this crap during a campaign season, then to turn around and find out the internet is no different. Oh well tho, life does go on, right?
There is alot of posters that dont like fanboys of any games on this mmo site and vice versa.. People that quit (feel in your game here) dont want to hear anything good about it because they feel like they have been screwed. So if your having fun and they are not, you are the bad guy and you must work for the company if you like the game and they dont.
Me, I could care less what people think about the games I play. If I am having a blast and feel the need to share it, I will, just like they feel is they had a shitty time in their game, they wish to share it too.. However its the countless trolls that keep posting about a game they no longer play and wish to give people the scare (or warning), do not play this (feel in your game here) and say that their current game is much better that the POS your playing.
Future readers, screw what people say whether good or bad, be your own judge of the game. There are a shitload of mmo junkies on this website and their taste may differ from yours and most dont even play mmorpg's anymore, but still feel its their right to debate.
