On server 29 my realm arena has around 2,000 people, and sure that is a lot.
BUT rank 50 doesn't even have 100k power and we are 8 days into the server.
ALSO, 30 people today showed up for Cerberus, don't even try to tell me those other 1,970 were busy.
Please clear the old servers instead of opening new ones. (good to dream, right?)
agree servers are opening way to fast. you are going to kill this game faster than you did evony
You have a Cerb or Baal for each realm. On average we get 35-50 players kicking a 250m world boss.
Of course, but my point is that hardly anyone showed up. Out of those near 2,000 in arena, maybe 300 of them are active.Quote:

In forest realm (can't speak for the others of course) at the beginning we only had around 20-30 players hitting WBs. Maybe new players are unaware of the benefits or assume its an elite event.Quote:

We know exactly how many players are playing at any given time on every server. We know how many are online, how many are AFK and how many are offline. We don't guess.
I think the point they are trying to make is that perhaps your definition of "full" isn't leaving enough continuously active players in each server before the decision is made to open a new one.Quote:

Could we get something like that maybe, and when a new player creates an acct they are directed to the server with the fewest active accounts in their time zone, instead of the newest
our server is 'full' on water realm there are 10 guilds with a total of 85 people in them - an average of 8.5 people, including the in actives. 2 of the guilds are lvl2, all the others are lvl 1 so guild wars hasn't even started yet. I doubt anyone has used the technologies available in the guilds and there has been no sign of 'heaven palace yet. So if the server is full, i think there must be some pretty serious problems somewhere.
Also just as a the n aside lab has a question in it about the no of realms - they say the correct answer is 4 but we only have 3, fire water and forest. Just so you know :)
Dawn you are still missing the point. For the first few days a majority of the people in the game are active only they are actively seeking a date or a booty call. They will move on before the week is up but by then you have opened up a new server so you do not see how empty it really is. These same people go to the next server and populate it again and kill the new server and the cycle never stops. The early servers are full but the newer servers are a joke.
what will kill the Game is the VIP players that is why the people keep leaving the realm and starting a new one move all the VIP players to 1 or 2 servers and let the rest play with out the VIP people or you will kill another game
WHY just move all the VIP players to thier own server and let the rest play with out them thats whats killing the games its the VIP players
lol that is so dumb who u think is paying for the servers with out vip players u don't play wow some peeps. and the whole full server thing is not true they are not full by far s22 is almost dead 3 realms only 15 to 17 players around at a time u can't find any players out in wild or heroic its a joke
I have like 400 people in my arena on server 19 and never have more than 20 for baal, they keep making new server every week and people just keep moving on to them there is no fun to play really
That maybe true but some servers are truly dead as server 19 where i play there were a lot of active players when it started but within 2 weeks time sevral other servers have opened up so now most have moved on. If servers were opening up after a certain time players would bond with others and get attached that way not leaving the server easily. At this point we can't even fill up our guild with enough active players, infact none of the top guild are full which is a real shame for the server as there are only 3 realms and atleast the top 3 or 4 guild should be close to full.Quote:

I'm not happy with all those new servers either. There are to many bugs unsolved that should be fixed first. For some reason I didn't noticed all those bugs in the first week I played. If I did, I'd give up before I became an addict :p
Ahhhhhhhhhh who cares
30 - 35 for boss events what I would give to have even half of those in my server . We get on a good day 6 - 7 :( normally we get only 4
Agreed. Every online game i have played i have heard the same argument. No more servers, fill the old ones up 1st. But it is a business and if a new player wants to start on a new server and one was available then it would be bad business sense not give a potential customer that option.Quote:

30!!!! OMG!Quote:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA imagine if the whole arena list showed up for WB's and was active...we'd be at like a 100 billion WB's already on most servers. It's obvious Tynon had no intention for server populations to be what they are supposed "shown" to be with arena ranks etc. If they were, then they would have been willfully ignorant to believe that original server progression predictions were accurate.
why did someone not necro the other threadQuote:

and in this game if you can't keep up with the top most people quit. + some gameplay issues also made alot of player quit
hahaha you think thats bad,server 35 has been dead for past 4 months(been open 6 months).we have just 15 active players( not including our alts). but the thing is we dont care,most of us just socialize and help each other,we arent competetive,we are a team as 14 of the 15 are on water realm.
I think they should merge some servers as most servers are dying
tynon allrdy announced server merges 2 monts ago.. but since 6 patches came out in 8 weeks tynon has been busy with other stuff..Quote:
