Default Server Population

Whats the population like in comparison to live during Kunark? Would this server be considered low, med or high.

Low.

I seem to recall, and bear in mind this was over a decade ago now, that Saryrn was one of the lowest population servers and my friends and I joined it for that reason... but we still had over 1000 people on during primetime in the classic-velious era.

Here we are 800ish on any given evening, it seems.

I dunno about 800, maybe 800 unique Ips, but as far as i can see 450-600 concurrent users

It is lower thankfully. I enjoy going to a dungeon and having it to myself or my group.

Most people do.

That's why all MMOs these days use instancing [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Server population here is nothing like live during Kunark, Velious, and Luclin, where the popular servers had anywhere from 3000-5000 people during prime time and usually not falling below 1000 during off hours.

Guk and SolB were so crowded on some servers that individual spawns were considered camps for a group of 6.

The launch of Kunark on P99 saw populations the first couple of weeks hitting 1000+ during US prime time, that went down to about 500 and is now going back up to about to 700-800 during prime time.

It's just not fun competing for mobs.

I can remember around 1500 when Kunark dropped and it slowly dipped to 400 right before epics due to boredom and Red. Epics came out and I saw 732 on last night. Im sure it will spike real hard when Velious drops

In the meantime there's still a healthy influx of low levels, having a great time in Oasis, FoB and places with others [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

People talking about this server ever being in the thousands are delusional. It's lucky if it gets over 650 in peak times.
