When will there be a "SERVER MERGE?"

Indeed. It doesn't matter how much content and fluff they add. Especially when there's no run around to actually play it.

which server is that?

Put it this way, there are 30 servers (probably not that much but its a nice number to work with) that are prema light.

Light = 1-500 (another number that's also easy to work with, not necessarily true either)

500 * 30 = 15,000 people potentially "saved" by server transfers/mergers, but that number is probably less because 30 servers are not perma light and those that are probably have less than 500 people on them.

Sorry, it's not a big deal and it's just not something they are going to drop everything to solve.

You are leaving out Standard servers.

This is something Bioware apologists do a lot.

Standard can be anywhere from 500 to 1500 (iirc).

I'd guestimate there's about 60% Standard servers with less than 800 players on Peak.

Spilt that up into Factions, and Planets, and you got a server that is largely dead but says Standard.

It's a much bigger problem than you Biodrones would ever admit.

There's maybe 5 viable servers to play on for High pop. I Re-rolled on Fatman to finish out my class stories, as I've no interest in playing it when my Sub is up.

Personally, I don't care anymore. Very tired of complaining about it, tired of debating with Biodrones over this and other issues. It's exhausting. It's the whole "Lead a horse to water, can't make them drink it" thing. No matter what we show you, Biodrones will simply see sunshine and rainbows.

I wish you guys the best of luck, I honestly do. I feel like you're going to need it.

If your having problems finding people on a standard server the problem is you and not anything else.

Also haters will see nothing but doom and gloom, so you should be tired with yourself... like I am with your kind.

If High Pop = playable for you then I suggest you go to one of them, but you hate the game and will be unhappy where ever you go.

I must say, the best way to merge and not eliminate the 'numbers' of servers on the forums is simply combine them behind the scenes.

When you look at the server selection list, they could have bundles of them slide into a single server instance instead of the separate ones now... of course some names and such will be overlapping... but they could do the crunching and have some players rename their characters as needed....


shrug who knows... there are a bunch of ways to merge... but all will pale in comparison to PAID TRANSFERS.

Which I support.... quickly.

That wont solve anything, Tomb of freedon nadd EU server already has que times to even get on the server at peak hours since desperate people keep rerolling in there.
Meanwhile the other servers are becoming even more deserted.
How hard is it for people to understand someone elses point of view when themselves are enjoying the game on healthy population server.

Do you really think all these people hang around on the forums to post these things just because they just like to complain about nothing?

But why not reroll? If the reroll then they would not need to complain. Im on Ajunta Pall, very populated, and I have yet to see a que time.

In your opinion, if I'm logged on to my standard-pop server, nobody in my near dead guild is online, and when I get to belsavis to do some dailies there are 19 people in total (11 lvl 50's) and after an hour of asking if anyone wants to group to do some of them while doing the ones I can solo and getting no response, I go to the fleet and spend another 30 mins asking the 50-60 odd people there the same thing to also no response...... this is my fault? Explain that thinking.


How about you go play the game and enjoy yourself instead of getting the the face of people who aren't having as good a time? I really am coming away with the impression that you and people like you are more likely to damage the game in the long run than any mis-steps BioWare might make. Pretending problems dont exist because they dont affect you won't do anything to improve the game and will only screw with building the communities it'll need to survive and properly feedback to the devs in the long run.

the reason most of us do not re-roll is the fact that a lot of us work 35-40 hours maybe more during the week. Go to school or have kids, so playing is a luxury and to get to 50 all over again.
