Try playing on tasaa baresh, for about 9 hours in a day you will be alone and then there would be maybe 30 people online to do 4-5 wz matches and that's it, back to solo play
I'm on the same server, ive counted 76 people on atm on rep side in prime time.

Bao Dur.

I started a new alt there (as did my girlfriend) and we're usually the only people on the planet.

I was seeing 8 max on Tatooine. 12 on fleet over the weekend. And I am usually the only one on Coruscant or Taris.

I have a character on a server where max I've seen on the fleet in a while is about 20. Usually it's more like 13. It is basically impossible to do anything.

There are atleast 30-40 servers that never even hit standard population during peak times, or ever for that matter. Rwookrrorro is one of those. I got home on Saturday night around 9pm EST and was in queue for 3 hours and never got queue for pvp, cause there was never enough people on line to queue. I am on the Imperial side and we had always outnumbered the Repubs 4 to 1. Well I haven't gotten into a pvp match with the repubs in over a week, I heard they all left for another game. So my server might be able to get 4-5 pvp matches a day now, only same faction matches, than queue goes dead. I was talking to some guildies last night who hadn't gotten their weekly pvp mission done because there was never queue going when they were on. Its not being over hyped, atleast 1/3 of the servers are super low populated. I allready canceled my sub, no point in playing when no one left to play with.

So there are really just a bunch of dead servers, with nothing going on?
I really really want a server migration or the option to move my jedi to a high pop server. I started on "terra blood" cuz some friends were on there but the server is so dead now.

At prime time 7-9pm EST their may be 15 people in any given zone.... this is crazy... Why Bioware is holding onto all these dead servers is beyond me.

Sure on my server Fleet population gets to be 100-140, but that's nothing, because look at the individual planets, they are completely disconnected and dead with no more than 2 or 3 max level player there at any given time. That number is just too low for an entire server in a modern MMO.

If you don't think this game "feels dead" especially on the planets then you likely come from a single player or failed MMO background.

BW has stated they are aware of dead servers and are working on transfers.

I am on Jedi Covenant and average I see is about 120 and peak is around 180+.
