I work overnights so am online when DOmi is going on and AS.. Right now theirs not a lot of us maybe 9 or 10 active but we are close players who love playing and we work with league to try and pop bgs.
I see. It sounds nice, the small community working closely together and all that I mean. However, for me the low population is too big of a downside unfortunately, since it limits too much of the gameplay and features in the game. It just sounds like a hassle to have to plan everything carefully, maybe days or weeks ahead, and with the enemy faction even, just to be able to do basic endgame content.
I might give the new server a go though, at least level up a char there in case it turns out ok (since you get some free stuff for leveling up now anyway). Let us know if you guys decide to try it out as well
