My server pop is way down on both sides (have a Consular and a BH on the same server). It makes the game feel completely lifeless to play on a server like the one I am on. I started going around to all the planets taking screenshots but got tired of the load screens to do so and no matter what people are going to try and dismiss your claims...even if you intent is just to ask for server mergers or transfers. I might (as in really big maybe) reroll my consular on a pvp because getting ganked by Imps with nothing to do is better than playing the game on a completely dead server. Then again, I don't know if I am willing to waste my time rerolling.... TL;DR: When there are more people standing in front of the AH in WoW at 3am then there are people on all the planets combined in TOR at peak hours...that server has a problem. 215 servers. two hundred and fifteen. If they merge this games servers there will still be more servers here than any other mmo, except for wow.

Id just like to add that it isnt fair to compare 90 percent of all fictional characters to Garrus. Garrus is just awesome anyway.

I think they need to merge a few servers. I just went ahead and rerolled. I figured that I had one character in the 40s and another in the 20s I might as well do it now before I get deeper into that server. I am actually enjoying the game even more now. It was nice to call once for a heroic 4man and get a group within 5 mins.

Ok, on my (currently) 'light' server in the middle of offpeak I see 27 people in Ord Mantell, 26 people in Tython and 51 people in Coruscant. On the Republic Side. Of an RP server. You owe me a picture of a WoW AH with at least 100 people in it at 3AM PST. For fun lets make it a 'light' populated RP server as well. Oh, and it has to be a horde auction house.

SWTOR is basically a lesser single player version of Kotor 1 (a game released almost a decade ago), and a complete failure of an MMO. A person wanting a game for the story, is WAY better of buying Kotor 1, than swtor. A person wanting an MMO, is WAY better of with practically anything else. And FYI, I practically played this game as co-op.

I began my life in SWTOR as a Republic Trooper, on a server that during the X-mas vacation was categorized as "Heavy". But soon the server began to feel empty, as it dropped down the population list to "Standard", with the ocational bump to "Heavy" on Sunday nights. I rerolled as a Sith Inquisitor for the Empire, on the most populated EU server at the moment, and I am happy I did, beacuse the difference is just staggering. The GTM is full of items, I can get a group when I want to, etc. etc. At least I am glad I "only" got to level 30'ish with my Trooper before making the decision to move to another server, but I do feel for all the lvel 50's out there who is now stuck on a low population server.

Oh god, sorry are you being intentionally dumb or just trolling me? 1) I have played all of those games. 2) swg isn't 'too much' of an mmo, just that I don't want 2 sandbox games and also, frankly, the game just wasn't that good. The community was fantastic (like eve) but the game was meh. 3) I play eve, have done since 2004. It's basically a 'life' simulator in space ships, it's like a job. This game is FUN. I don't expect anything else from it. 4) I don't expect a massive 'community' here, I don't want guild/corp/clan mates constantly bugging me. I just want a fun game where my characters persist and will have additional content released for them to do every so often.
