Server Population is GROWING!

Just curious.

Your prove is solid. No company would ever make something up.

If I remember correctly they said they doubled the server capacity on some servers, that was right after they said they were almost to their max capacity. But those are just words.

The server monoriting sites do not show a fluctuation in server status that would give any indication that this was done. Those sites just monitor the status and if they did double the server capacity you would have seen a large drop in the graphs on those site but instead you dont but see a steady decline.

"....and we're raising server population caps where required."

I didn't understand the question. Is my name randomly generated? no. no it is not.


I didn't know they did. Even more so that they were raising the caps. Guess it really does show just how shoddy SWTOR was if a server cap increase from last year has minimal effect towards the trend of players starting the great migrations.

Shame, SWTOR could have been a great game.

and my server still only has 30 people in the imperial fleet........ hurrah... when is bw releasing server transfers

For me SWTOR was and is the worst excuse for an MMO I've ever played. I tried it for a couple of weeks, made the mistake to pay for one month after the first free month, already uninstalled it and will probably go back to Rift.

Anyway, there's like 25-30 fanboys in these forums who keep defending the game, failing to realise how much is lacking in this game, which will inevitably lead to its demise (no paying customers is no game)

You guys are acting like a noob. I know wows first years, i know that when bgs and action houses are released. I played that game anyways. I mean if you guys stuck together to this game. It will grow like wow.

Lets take a quote from there

"With this in mind, we wanted to notify everyone of some consistently high population servers. These servers are closing in on their absolute population cap (the maximum amount of players who can be on the server at any given time) and will likely have a queue to enter even at off-peak play times."

So on Dec 20th the servers listed below this quote (you can go there to get that list) are closing in on their absolute population cap, That means they can not be increased anymore. Those servers also you would expect would have the most players and even they now are barely hitting very heavy.

They put the servers at a soft cap and then they can raise it if needed for special occasion events etc where more than the normal amount of people would play but these servers were almost to their ABSOLUTE cap. They even said that they would not increase the servers past this as by saying if it does reach this you are going to be waiting.

So to conclude. If these servers that were almost to their absolute cap are still the highest populated servers and have the highest server status at Very heavy then that does in fact show that the population is dropping.

Unless you think they lied about the absolute max actually being the absolute max but then if they lied about that then they could have lied about everything else.

Your right . Dont allow anyone to quit and any game would grow.

Our core community is solid. Just a few dozen or so spamming either the most active active threads (an increased visibility thing) or threads that ally with the game to try making things appear way worse than they are.
