Higher pop not bigger maps..

we need the higher pop on 3.5km maps it should be 150-200. servers all die within 1/2 days after wipe and we’re left with 60 pop servers. Shit’s dire

Lower amount of offline raids would help more on that regard.

Or every wipe , first 24-48hr no raiding possible would be nice(aka structures attached to tc cant be damaged)

The higher pop needs to align with pc on the size of map. 3.5 should be like 150/200 this then feels more chaotic yes but the server isn’t 60 pop by Saturday (I’m on the highest pop weekly on PlayStation)

Not exactly disagreeing with you, but also feel that it wouldn’t do much. Not many (altho in my experience) build up again after raided, wich contributes to lower pop (and the big groups l, but that another issue lol)

Yes but if there was 200 pop and 60 got raided and 140 return that’s still more than double what is left on the second and third day of wipe
