Are servers on cov still empty?

 

I was here when it went live and in its beta. Back then it was full of players. I left after several months, returned and servers were empty. Is it still like this now?

there's still a healthy population on freedom, but most of the other servers have a low villain population.  would have been better to never made cov, all the work should have been on hero side.

Surprisingly still very populated but too many servers.  If they merged some servers and brought it down to 5 they would all be heavily populated.  Very worth while game to play.

I recently came back to play with some friends and Virtue seems to have a fair amount of vilians running aound when we play. I'm really enjoying the new classes like MM and Stalker as opposed to the Hero side which I had already played.

Many reasons why serverrs are empty. Game has virtually no economy, no money, no housing, no nothing. It hasn't got too much of anything. All they use for everything is xp and influence. You need to give players a lot more then what they curently offer or else you'll have what they have now...nothing.

Protector villain side is completely empty. It's impossible to find a team in that ghost town.

Still ok in Europe. Union got a healthy population on both sides, which is good cause that is where I got all my toons I usually have no problem finding a team, which this game is heavilly based around.

Hm, Protector isn't much better on blueside.  I was amazed I was able to see anyone the other night wanting to run Dr Q.  TF which is one that my old badge gathering hero badly needed.    Took 4 hrs, but was fun.

Virtue is good for redside, so is Infinity and Victory.     After some experiences of late on Freedum redside, I can honestly say I do not recommend that server unless you have an L50 farmer toon that is ready to go as that is all that people want to do there.

On the others I mentioned its a nice mix of teaming and farming blue or redside.

Once some troubles in my private life are over with I'll likely seek to build up my Infinity VG.  The base is ready just need people.

What hurts redside though is the economy is so skewed compared to blueside.  Villains need to grind more then heroes to get funds and now also the merits.  Redside doesn't have a lot of high merit payouts compared to Blue.  I'm hoping the Mission Architect can change that down the road.

I just recently returned after a few months break. I went back to Triumph where I always have played, and I have had no issue finding teams on both the red and blue side. I do think a server merge would be a good thing but I think the population is good.
