Now I'm almost convinced you don't play the game.

It would have more meaning if nothing in the game had changed since then. But since there has been so much content, and an uptick in players recently, its meaning carries a little less weight. Also given that the response from Carbine was that of admitting mistakes, correcting them, and moving forward with great new content. And the response from NCSoft was one of continuing to have full support of the game. There's plenty of reason to be annoyed that it has been brought up for so long. Not like anything new has come out of the report anyway.

No I just typically always the see same people in thayd, dungeons, and pvp. Plus consider there are only like ~15 guilds on the exile side on entity now. So you're talking about a population of maybe 400-500 raiders. I can't imagine there are THAT many casuals. So I guess I'd up my estimate to say a few thousand players not a few hundred. However the amount of players who actually que dungeons and pvp is far smaller. Also to clarify, I'd like to see this game succeed as well, but it just seems like some of you have delusional beliefs about the size of the player base that hurt discussions about what needs to happen to fix things... Because right now the game is not in a good spot.

I would just like to know where you are getting any of your numbers.

How accurate is that list, since they have guilds like Crimson Cross listed as both active and inactive? (One is has "the" in the title, but they both link to the same guild.)

Population is Wildstar is good and only getting better. No other MMO out there offers Wildstar's quality combat/gameplay.

That wasn't my point. Nor did I say that it was ok. So less strawmanning, please. You tried to act as though "what is an issue for the 1% of 1% in a queue" is "an issue for EVERYONE who queues". They're two vastly different things. The sheer vast majority of people aren't barred from PBG's because of their DS gear, because most people aren't raiding in DS. But lets ignore that, and pretend that our own personal hurdles are the case for everyone else. Cuz "no liek logik."

The difference is indeed massive... I have both a level 50 dom and 50 exile and on any given time i can find atleast 3 exiles to 1 dom in the main cities (not 100% accurate ofc)... We are having 30 exiles vs 30 exiles Warplots on Fridays, and i doubt Dominion can get that many players to join in the fun, but if you guys can, u should queue up on Friday nights too!
