    Pop question

    It's pretty evident from Steam analysis that the population is experiencing a serious exodus to which likely is proportional to console usage. My question is what is planned to head off and reverse the hemorrhage of base players? Before we begin to discuss this as a post event issue keep in mind that all population gains from free to play are now gone.

    I think the time to merge servers has arisen, but what do the guys who have more than 6 characters do as the game only allows 6 per server.

    Kiwi told me in a Q&A that NA and EU would never be merged. But I agree with you, they should be merged.

    Ps3 could do with merging NA/EU and if the NA server gets any quieter on the xbox it wouldn't hurt to merge those.
    Sadly it's only the events that pull the players in now.

    Well, fixing some bugs we've been pointing out since release would be a good start to making a good impression on new players who are running into them for the first time and thinking that a semi-mature game with issues right from the start isn't a game they need to take seriously.
    So, many of them probably move on before becoming more deeply involved with the game population.

    I know that many of the newb players I have run into and added to my friend's list tend to rarely or never come back after a very short time playing the game.

    But, reskinning the same stuff over and over again for the bit store, or rerunning events over and over with the only changes being the combination of syn perks of reward weapons is what seems to pass for the majority of development and output anymore, so, I'm thinking that as always we the players care more for the games viability than the actual owners of the franchise and intellectual property do.
    These are just my opinions.
    I have lots of opinions.
    Some of them, on occasion, people have agreed with.
    I do not trust those people.

    NA/pc.
