    I see more players than I ever have at quick travel points, tons roaming the game world, et cetera. PC population is very healthy.

    Yeah, I haven't played in a while, and was surprised at how many people I have seen today.

    I play everyday, its just that pvp kinda sucks... hard. So I don't bother doing it.

    They need to add shadow wars stuff to the echalon contracts... particularly roadkills. More people on vehicles would make getting vehicle destructions for the pursuits a lot less tedious.... And give people a reason to que.

    Peak time is fine managed 2 shadow wars while everyone was online got the pursuit for 50 points then the server kicked me and unable to join anymore. Managed 3 games of frieght yard but not once got in a cerebus. They need to increase the amount of vehicles as some people just sit in them and won't move till you get out. I am not bothering with this daily contract as now it is after 10pm its impossible to get in a match just see 15 - 21 people waiting. Also noticed people off the map in frieght yard today where they could not be shot. I also remember reading on here that people were cheating in shadow war but I did not think much of it. Yet today on 2 capture points in each game was about 6 players just standing right on the capture point and then one actual SW player would appear making it near impossible to shoot them or work out what was going on.
    Then on PVP what is with the permanent cloak and people who are able to go into cloak right at the start no ego delay I now there is weapons that boost ego length etc but you cant start the match in cloak and I have run into a couple of unbreakable shields today. Never had any issues with this until past couple of days.

    I am very glad I am down to my last pursuit need to run over another 10 people or so and get trusted with echelon then I doubt I will play PVP unless they make major changes.

    I think this has more to do with it then anything. Ive seen more people on lately during arkfalls and other such tasks then I have in the entire time ive played the game. Now that they have worked a few of the bugs out, if you can get past the boring repetition, its not so bad anymore. Like Flippy here, ive never concerned myself with the PVP aspect, hell i've only got 2 of the pursuits for it done and im EGO 4110. So yeah, I have to think that people are just more concerned with PVE then the PVP. Lets face it, the PVP in this game is just generic and barely works in the first place, even with good rewards, its still just something to break the repetition of replaying the 1 storyline over and over and over and over...

    what on earth do you do to get to ego 4000 + without getting bored? I am nearly at 2500 and it is just the same thing every day the contracts are the only thing to do and replaying the story I am struggling to see a point in trying to make 4000.

    I'm not far behind you in terms of me ego rating, but as to your question; i personally mix up how i play. Some times i'll just log in and do some contracts other days i run round doing emergencies or arkfalls and sometimes i just wander back through Mt Tam at random for no reason other than to test or practice with new weapons. It's also fairly easy to pile on Ego rating during the bonus XP weekends i've found. I've only been playing for a fraction over a month and i am well over 2k ego. If i had been playing since day one my ego would easily i suspect have hit 4k+ and i will never get the social or PVP pursuits finished.

    About the same time I have had it then.. I guess when I get bored I play another game and come back to this when I have the patience to grind away at my final 3 achievements lol

    If they did that I would just not play... I play this game for the PvE, if I want to PvP I will play GW2
