The servers are divided up by instances , and worlds. They need to cut down on the instances. I'm sure there's 50 copies of Ebon Hawk floating around, they need to compress that into 25 or some such , thats all.

Plus the game is new (jan 20) people are still doing story, so if you're a 50 , yeah it's pretty empty up there.

heck , I had to go away because my piece of crud computer couldn't take it anymore and I'm only just coming back with a new computer. You think I'm jumping to 50 anytime soon ?

There's plenty of people. They're just not 50.
This is very very very wrong information.

You must not be playing the same game we are.

Man, you could not be more wrong...just wrong.

Post better

Ok, so now on, everyone who will appreciate or defend this game is paid by BW. Because 4chan is a solid information source, right?

It's a pretty standard marketing practice, and I'm not sure why anyone is shocked, or even disbelieving.

As for 4chan... Relevance fallacy.

(A) Someone on 4chan mentioned that water is necessary to sustain human life.
(B) 4chan is obviously a bunch of lunatics and internet trolls.
Therefore...
(C) Water is actually poison.

It's all true - servers are falling fast. While I was playing last night, I heard this massive "THUD!" Next thing I saw was my server was on the ground - man, I live in a ghost town...

The difference being that there is independent corroborating evidence that water is necessary to sustain human life. Since 4chan is not a credible source, please provide another source to back up your assertion that this is "standard marketing practice."

Ive seen people defending EA/Bioware on this propem on this and other threads like it, now I find they migth be paid trolls to sell us bad service?

And people wonder why they got the award.
People who defend or troll games could be paid. It really is hard to tell sometimes because there is enough money to be made for either cause. As much as I dislike the delusions of many of the forum faithful I would hestitate to call them paid. However, out side of the forum is a different story. The real problem that needs to be addressed is why Bioware wont do the right thing and merger/offer tranfers.
Relabeling future patches as Expansions, just like EA Louse said a year ago. Who got the last laugh?

@KrittaB - I really hope you're not surprised by all of this. Why do you think EA has the moniker of "Kiss of Death?" This has been known for years what they and other companies are doing.

They are a corporation after all - first and foremost. They care nothing about you or anyone else. They're 1st and primary concern goes to the stockholders. If they don't receive their quarterly dividends then heads begin to roll. Simple Business 101.

For the simple reason that until EA tells BW to jump and how high, they can only sit on their hands and wait. BW isn't really to blame for this entire fiasco - EA is. You know, EA has the reputation to being the very worst company in this country. Go here:

Even Forbes made mention of this dubious honour.

and this is a modern article from April this year.

I dunno guys... I calculated some stats and according to my calculations there should be between 1.76 million to 2.35 million active players right now. Although the game really does look pretty empty to some extent the statistics just don't lie! I can even explain my calculations if you don't believe it but it looks pretty convincing to me.
Perhaps the dropping in population described has something to do with the instances system I hear they put in the game. Plus the insane number of servers which spreads out the population really thin. But you certainly can't say the population overall is low because this game is in the top 10 from players number perspective!
