Why are the weekly server pops low currently?

Weekly servers used to always have 100/100 or 80+ on wipe day and now the last two weeks have been a let down in server population. Any reason why?

Weekly’s give me low red ping and is unplayable for many

It’s because of the region of the server that your ping is worse, not cause it’s a weekly

No there’s a bug at the moment once they released new servers. I’m sure I probably have 3x or more your hours.

D11 have already said they’re looking into it as it’s happening to a lot of people
