Meestercat.2748 Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I’ve not noticed any drop to be honest. I’ve been running various metas and world bosses over the last couple of weeks and they’ve all been very populated. I suspect if there is any drop it’s just vets taking a break while they wait for the next LW episode to arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AliamRationem.5172 Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I don't know if it's an EU thing, but NA is looking great! I spend most of my time in expansion content and there are new and returning players everywhere since PoF dropped. It even seems to have picked up a bit lately and I keep hearing from players who had their hopes on Bless Online. My guilds have been adding a lot of these players lately with similar stories: "I'm a WoW player. Tried Bless. It sucked. Been hearing about GW2 for years, but never gave it a try."

Randulf.7614 Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Considering Anet have announced a spike in players joining, I;d say there's no issue with the population. It certainly is too heavily populated to be dying within a few weeks period. Either players are elsewhere (wvw is a good bet) or in newer maps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaine.4513 Posted June 17, 2018 Author Share Posted June 17, 2018 Thanks for Replies, I guess a lot more people are in DLC maps, I should explore more DLC maps and join in events Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faline.8795 Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 It's always hard to get an understanding of population because of the way it is split between different shards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endless Soul.5178 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 My guild was doing an in-party RP event in Snowden Drifts in one of the Dredge caves yesterday. We were amazed at home many random people went by doing map completion and filling out hearts. At least 50+ in the space of 30~45 minutes. This in the NA server, which seems very populated to me.

Blocki.4931 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Divinity's Reach Minister Waypoint has gotten a lot more popular in recent weeks. I see about 30 people there at all times on EU. LA is also always lively, though population is spread across more places, like the forge, bank and crafting stations, which also happen to be spread out more.

GrubySzymek.1362 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 People moved away because episode 3 is delayed. They will come back for a week or two when patch hits. That's how GW2 works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry.5713 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 There has been quite an influx of new and returning players lately. Haven't seen that many new faces since PoF launched. Just take off your blindfold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloodstealer.5978 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 holidays, exams, time of day, and a diverse range of things to do in game.. population can seem a little off sometimes because were all off doing different things at different times of day with the occasional RL stuff to throw into the mix.

Kalendraf.9521 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 The maps I've been playing recently have been quite busy. I visited 3 starter maps yesterday while working on map completion and each had many players doing hearts, events, etc. Those are probably due in part to the influx of new players. I also saw many players on the PoF maps I recently visited - large groups doing bounties in Crystal Oasis yesterday for the dailies, etc. There also continue to be huge groups of players in Istan doing the main events there.

Yumenei.7943 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 I’ve just came back to this game after quitting in the mid of HoT expac. I used to be very sceptical about mounts, because I believe they break player interactions with one another, but yesterday I bought PoF, got my first mount and I’m really surprised how well ANet had made them. Also this expansion is really awesome... They’ve fixed everything that annoyed me about HoT (which suddenly got playable with these new mounts) and made it even better. So far it looks like the best MMORPG expansion I’ve seen. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shippage.1983 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Not really, I notice tons of players. You might need to get your eyes adjusted. Also your server is entirely irrelevant except for WvW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Despond.2174 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Nope, every meta, wold boss, fractal, any time I log in there are heaps of people and guildies. GW2 is still in the top 4 most populated MMO. Some people may play less after a new episode, which is natural. I think the new LB+GS legendaries will have lots of buzz.I was comparing Halloween this year to last, the people in LA, the amount of groups farming labs, and it seems to be all the same/healthy.

Turkeyspit.3965 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 I only started playing February 2018, and I have never had a problem finding anyone in any map or zone. Some zones are more populated than others, obviously, but leveling up my first character, I was able to find other players in every zone I visited.

Game of Bones.8975 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 The core maps have fewer people, but that's mostly because people are playing the expansions or current festival. There's usually plenty of people doing bounties in the desert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
