From this it looks like Sulfuras is the most balanced very high pop server. Nice
Please do this on Bloodsail Buccaneers. Thanks!
This is not reliable at all since it’s data is only past lvl 5+, I’m sure higher levels must be waaay different
5+ is to low. Heck, i’ve got 6 alts that are all between 5 and 10 for crafting
The census only captures players online at the time it was taken. I imagine the VAST majority of players that were online while the census was being taken was on their preferred/main toon
Since these numbers are active players that means servers can hold nearly 80-90K players at one time. That’s massive. Were talking around 2.5 million active players playing classic at one time. The retail servers seem pretty populated as well. I wonder if Blizzards sub totals surpass the 10 million mark? This is amazing news for WoW’s future.
With numbers like these - the actuaries at Activision are thinking two words - and two words only:
CASH SHOP
Thanks for getting us this info. Helps
I love how low pop Arcanite Reaper is for leveling, but damn the Auction House literally has nothing on it lol.
That would be nice information. They did also show number of players at a specific level too.
Active players are still active players. But yeah it can’t be perfect.
It kinda surprised me how balanced some of these very high pop servers are.
Pagle is not a PvP server, the list covers PvP servers. Pagle is covered on that website though! Pagle is an Alliance Dominated PvE server with 73.7% Alliance Population, nearly 3:1 ratio.
Confirmed Gone for Phase 2.
Thanks and Fixed.
Low pop hell doesn’t occur in one day. It happens over time. Really hope many of the overflow realms don’t become low pop hells but if history repeats, they will.
Where the bloody hell is arugal?
Arugal is an OCE realm.
I feel like these sorts of things should (eventually) be scanning 40+
35 is where (most) alts will stop because it’s where you can get 300 crafting and past that it’s mostly going to be mains or characters that are played for more reasons than just logging on to make flasks or hold items.
I don’t want this thread to die, this data is actually useful for the people.
Definitely feeling it on bigglesworth. Stopped leveling my Druid at 34 because alliance can only do dungeons for a consistent flow of xp. Everywhere else is 3 to 1 horde to alliance while they also tend to be running +5 levels for what alliance is running. Wouldn’t be surprised is it’s 75% horde when average level hits 50s.
well obviously Blizzard has the full detailed information, but it would be fair to assume Classic is not getting another batch of players all it can hope for is a redistribution of its current pop as it settles over the coming weeks.
With that said I feel bad for the people on sub 50k pop servers as there might be a smll spike again when the PvP phase comes in but overall servers should lose 3-8% of its pop due to hype dieing down.
I’ve been sitting at 36 (only about 15% leveled) for 5 hours in /played on Blaumeux because everywhere I go for my level is infested with the horde… Just tried played a bit tonight after coming back from a trip and saw five level 46+ horde camping lowbies in Darkshire. Get to STV and see 15 horde camping Nessingwary, and every quest spot I ran to had 5+ horde doing quests there. Only saw a grand total of 6 Alliance while running around STV so I guess the rest were to the South near BB.
I keep hearing/seeing people say our server is fairly balanced, but I’m just not seeing it.
I think the best prospect for a faction balanced pvp realm is Faerlina, the streamer server, because they have organized groups of Alliance and Horde keeping each other in check. Other pvp realms will end up with the dominant faction Horde, maybe a few Alliance, over time.
On pve realms, faction is irrelevant.
I don’t think the Deviate Delight numbers in the first post are accurate. They are way different that what is shown on the ref website (wowpop.appspot) and I’ve used the census app on the server and the balance was much closer than than 20k alliance vs 14k horde.
