You should never start on a low-pop server during launch. Yeah, lots people tell you to go there to avoid queues. But launch queues generally last only a week or so. After that its happy times.

Low-pop server is only for people who don't want competition for quest objectives and stuffs. They always become dead about a month later. And developers will not combine servers until 6+ months for whatever reason.

If you're sick of Huttball, your problem isn't server pop, it's server imbalance.

Partly your doing for joining the Imperial zerg. Roll Republic if you want to play all the warzones.

Im all for this game, but if he picked a lop-pop server from the start, he shouldnt be too surprised that there is nobody playing at 2am in the lvl 50 zone.
When the word standard can change at any time in relation to population caps and total server load, its pretty obsolete.

not as a comparative since other populations have been heavy and very heavy and full, but his server has never gone above standard.

unless, of course, you think they massively increased the server pop cap on his server and his server only...

Thanks for helpful replies.

I know what you mean.

We had queues of 15 min, everyone was like "ROLL ON A LOW POPULATION SERVER IF YOU DONT WANT QUEUE TIMES, NOOB".

After a month, you are basically stuck on a dead server and you cant even transfer.

WOW why do some of the people in this thread have to be such jerks?

The guy has a legitimate concern and some people have nothing better to do then spouting out nonsense about how he must be playing only at 2 AM and is otherwise greatly exagurating.

He just wrote there are 4x people online on the fleet at 3 PM on a saturday.

He choose a server without queue when game launches, as BW themselfes suggested people should and people bash him for choosing the wrong server.

Are some guys so ridiculously blinded that thy have to hold their ears closed and sing "lalallalalalala" loudly cause they cannot accept there might actually exist people who have legitimate concerns when they try to play?

You biodrones should consider not downplayig this, if some servers are left behind population wise they will die, its a downward spiral of beeing unable to find groups/pvp leading to more people leaving, leading to.....

This is not in the interest of even the BW defend force, you should help making the developers aware that this is a legitimate concern for alot of people.

I hear what he is saying in truth, I am in space slug at one time this one was so big we had 30/45 mint Q's.. and now it like pulling teeth to get a goop together to do Heroics, so much so most just do a world heroics all at once, so they don't have to look for a teem each time, going to a big world like Aldron and looking at the word PoP cont at the time around 15, is a bit aggravating
I have bad spelling do to my being learning disabled , the is just so I do not get asked "why are you spelling so bad?" and I don't wont to have to get asked 100 times, and is in NO way meant to hurt any one feelings after all.. IT is about me!

He is the one that said he was playing at "2 at night". Nobody but the OP is spouting nonsense, other people that play on his server have disputed his claims. Nobody but the OP is exagerating anything and he may just be all out lying.
