Question How is SolTech?


First of all, greetings from Mattherson!

As we found out we will be joining forces next week.

I wanted to ask any SolTech player out there: What is your server like?

What faction dominates most of the time? (If any)
What are the major outfits and their faction?
and anything else you would like to add.


I am interested to know what kind of players, factions, how much, etc will be joining us here on Mattherson.

Cheers!

No one faction dominates, it's generally even, though sometimes during the day one faction might have a pop advantage. Biggest issue with the server is the non-Indar continents being empty and a boat load of V.S. ship jumpers that left after GU2. Hopefully this will be all fixed up once the servers merge.

Same story on your end or is there one faction that holds the advantage?

Alright cool!

I would say we are similar. Esamir is empty most of the time, Amerish is empty any time off peak hours from my experience. Fight is always on Indar.

Faction balance is pretty good most of the time however it can sway because we have some pretty big outfits on all three factions that wreak havak when they are running ops. As of late indar has been in balance.

I do not think we had as many VS "ship jumpers" as you say you had but I am NC so I am not the authority on that.

A bit of an exaggeration, but whole lot of BR1-20 NC and TR just showed up after that second update, and they all seem to know how to get things done.

From what I noticed the population seems to sway from being nearly even, to a sizable VS advantage, and there always seems to be a lower TR population.

Sounds good. I think you guys will blend into the Mattherson population well. We have similar statistics.

Re: How is SolTech?


I generally play everyday, and on those hours I play, it is usually VS on the high side of population of lately. After GU2 they we were about even, but in the pass 2-3 weeks, the VS has come back and now they are generally 33-42% of the server population. 33-36% during morning, afternoon, evening times, and 36-42% after, generally.

General Server Pop: 33-42% VS ;; 28-38 TR ;; 32-39 NC roughly.

Outfits:

== NC ==
NC10 top 2 largest I think
137 top 2 largest I think
AFUL roughtly next in line

== TR ==
Not sure who the largest is but
E911 does stick out as a organized outfit. They are either good players or work well together. I haven't seen an outfit vs E911, but against a squad of randoms they seem to do pretty good.

== VS ==
uh.... I can't think of any outfit as the VS are generally numerous.


Amerish/Essamir

Not always empty. Since GU2 there has been good fights there. Mostly people that want that exp bonus for being the lowest pop on the continent, but then populating the continent enough to make it even. Within the pass week it kinda has died down a bit. About 60% of the time those continent are even population (population being about a squad to no more than a platoon.)

I've been playing since December and I have never seen one empires pop hit over 40 except for about 2 weeks ago when TR had about 44% on one Saturday.

this is the pop right now, ill take another one later for comparison, but yea never seen any faction anywhere above 38% tops, with the exception of the specific time I mentioned above.

You got the NC outfits roughed out pretty well,

TR the only one I can remember is the honeybagers and they seem pretty well organized.

as for VS outfits there are several, PSOD, FLUID, BOFB, V404 to name a few, if your a VS outfit and want to get involved with the rest of the existing outfits check out vstorganization.com

Seems the most organized TR outfits are E911 and The Honey Badgers, not very many active decent platoons leaders though, I always find myself leading other outfit's platoons lol.

Well I have personally seen VS pop that high, more than 6x, post GU2,so far and quite a few more pre GU2, but have never seen TR pop remotely close to 40%

So an average pop when I play is VS 38% TR 32% 34%.

This explains why I have never seen it, its not prime-time or even a reasonable time of day, like I said you play at strange times man 1-3 in the morning is not a normal time to be playing planetside on an east-coast server, you should be sleeping like normal non-teenage/night working folks... and spend those cert points your making me jealous.
