So I really want to play this game again, I havn't played since Going Rouge first came out, does anyone know how the EU servers are doing in terms of population? Does anyone play anymore?

    Don't play CoH as much as I used to since EQ's new progression servers launched, but I spent all yesterday afternoon on an Ouroborous task force mission arc. Those Praetorian Clockwork sure hit hard and fast! My Defender had gotten a bit too used to being able to ignore incoming fire for a few seconds; bad move with these guys.

    What server you do you play on?

    Before the end of the summer, CoH will include global server access.  Basically, EU and NA will no longer be separate updaters, nor separate server lists.  This also means that EU and NA players will be able to transfer characters back and forth between servers.  And, you should be able to creat new heroes and villains on the NA servers.  Freedom and Virtue are currently the top populated servers.

    Virtue is the one that's considered the unofficial RP server, right?

     That is correct.

    Just an fyi --  the EU/NA global server access merge will take place on May 3rd.  There will also be one week of free reactivation if you want to check things out.

    I received the email and will be playing for the next week starting tomorrow.  I haven't played the game since the mission creation system was implemented.  One question I'd like to ask is: Do people still do the sewers until they're high enough for Faultline or does everyone keep to the created missions?  Also, if everyone keeps to the created missions, is it hard for someone without a super group to find a group?

    Some people do sewer runs still.  Lack of supergroup memberhsip shouldn't affect grouping prospects.

     

    By the way, global server access was postponed again / ' :

    Any idea on how long it will be postponed?  It would have been nice if they sent an email of notification.

    Yes, Virtue is the unofficial RP server, but the population is high enough now that I'd say less than half the players are role players at all.  Mostly it is just a fun server to be on and full of many good players, whether you like to RP or not.
