It's lonely out there...

You're onto something here...

The frequency and concurrency of events has definitely increased, particularly in SV.

Toning the majors down a bit would go a long way towards alleviating lag - not so much the frequency, but the amount happening at the same time.

Trion, this is basic common sense! I hope one of you are paying attention, here!

The issue, I think, is the idea that less people at an event would equal less lag, but in the last few days, I've really found the opposite. I honestly rarely have had lag issues (disconnects or timeouts are another story) but now that I am at events alone or with a handful of people, I am experiencing slow down and hiccups even at emergencies.
Defiance players came to love the intense crowded feeling at big events. Last night at a Darkfall, I felt sad that tons of people weren't BMG spamming me when the Monolith was sending the artillery shots.

I'm busy processing a video I did when I was Ego 1700 at an incursion, in the good old days. I'll be putting it on Youtube.

Pure chaos! Volge weapons and bmgs galore and not one ounce of lag.

Man, I miss those mad races from point to point.

It's not the population, that's for sure.
