Factors that are never considered in things like this:
Some people
... are on holiday.
... only play for 1 or 2 hours a day.
... only play on weekdays.
... only play on weekends.
... try to find places where there is nobody around.
... this is a GLOBAL server timezones should be considered.
(If it felt empty premerge and you play at the same time, its not going to seem any fuller after the merge)
I got a tell asking if there was any hunts going on, the player said there had been nobody on all day.
I was hoping between towns (had stuff to do) I saw at least 5+ hunting parties and region chat was buzzing.
I guess everything is about point of view.
If is was specifically looking for a lvl 100 team in Hoi-cho to level my affliction, then I might be dam hard to find a team. However I have never played this game that way. On the 'quiet days' I look for a 'random person' and find out what they need to do what they want. This has ment that now I can't fit all the people I have ment into my friends list and I regularly get a 'out of the blue' tell saying want help doing something.
I find that by giving my time to others, to help them acheive their goals, has put me personally in this position.....
I can get ANYTHING I need in Atys.
So if your struggling .... ask what you can do for someone else. You never know they may even teach you a trick or two. They might take you to a place you have never been and do something that you never thought possible.
