So i log on now and Go to the European districts all the time. Im from mexico so my main language is Spanish. I try to find people in the Spanish Districts at major cities and if i am lucky I run into like 3-6 people in a Major city...1 person in a normal hub area if I am very lucky.
When I go to European English District 1 in a major city I see less than 1/3 of the people on the US districts oh at European play times, Like 5am-10am (cali time) Its really odd. So where are all these players from Europe?
I remember last year the Spanish districts had plenty of people on them, and the European districts were just as packed as the American ones. This was early 2007 when it was like this. I don't understand, Did every 1 Just give up and go to the American Districts? or Did a lot of players from Europe quit?
Where are all the european players?

You just play at the wrong times, plenty of Europeans playing, when i go to American district at regular European times those districts are deserted as well.

Most Europe players I know play on American districts, loads more people there.

Europe english is empty allright, thats because everyone goes to american dis to spam... German dis are still pretty crowded, but as stated above, everyone goes american to play ursan, overall americans are better pve-wise... ( at least they know what to do in dungeons etc...)

Yeah it's sortof a self-accelerating exodus. As people switch to America, more people will follow due to lack of numbers.
Stupid Shizno
a huge shift in players per capita has changed since the added feature of inter-relm districts. alot more euros are in american dis.
Alazardragoon
Man that sucks, I cant find any one who speaks Spanish anymore to team up with. Hell back in 2007 It was easy to find an all spanish guild, Now its hard to find a spanish player.

maybe theyre in other districts, i know i spend most my time in American distrcits because my guild is american and i went to AD once and since then its been the default. Maybe others have noticed no ones on at one point and changed districts?

It's a shame that Europe is devoid of players. I don't have EotN, but all the other major outposts do not have very many players in them outside of 'normal' hours. It's a total contrast to the States. I recently went to ToPK US dis and was really happy to see that the B/P party still going strong. That died out a long time ago in Europe.
And I have to agree with kranius that I experience a lot more lag than I was used to but that only gets worse if I join a PvE team in the US.
It's a lose-lose situation
, either play with no people, or play with increased lag and risk disconnects.

Eng1 and German1 are most likely the places that you encounter a few people for missions or quests. But only during the evening and then the number is still low.
nekopowa
It's pretty equal if you take into consideration that europe has more than english channels, and america has only those. Lots of germans and french play as well. You just gotta get on at the right times.

Simply put, there is no reason to play by location. we are all playing by language.

europeans are good so they use henchies and hero's for missions and qeusts, american ppl are so bad they need to use PUG's because they can't handle hero's

LOL... as Mexican you should now, that you will find on European Disticts alot lesser people on, as when you play normally on the American District, because of the huge Time Difference of 8 Hours, When you are awake, then lots of Europeans are SLEEPING and vice versa.
When I want to find lots of People on the American Districts to play with, as German, I've nearly to wait like past MIDNIGHT, then is the Chance most big, to have lots of Americans on, as European, when you change the Districts.
However, from all european Communities, so or so Spain is really by far not the biggest one - that are Great Britain and Germany, followed by France, after that comes maybe Spain first. In overall feeling Germany is by far Europe's most biggest Community yet. Last days I see that, more and more britain players coming over into the german Districts, at least at evening ...
So, when its for you around midnight, then try to find spanish people in their Districts, then you will have mostly biggest chances to find people on

GW pve is now dead in europe.
and rightly so.
with title pve skills, pvp/pve divide, no skill>time.,hard mode the game has been ruined and made it also impossible for new players to get into the game (as they feel they are playing a different game without eye of the north)
there are better grind button mashing mmorpgs (thats what gw has turned into) out there.....and gw is not the only free one anymore so its pve is doomed as it doesnt have anything to make it stand out anymore.
RIP

Really depends of the time zone. It's hard to find someone in American d's at 8AM GMT-5... I'd hop on Euro d's and there would more much more people. While at night I'd swap back to American d's - no more people in Euro but people in my time zone were in, at least.

Because the smell coming from the French district is driving us away.

I moved over to the American districts, there's just more people there, easier to buy/sell. There seemed like little point in staying in the European districts, and as you pointed out, more and more people seem to be leaving them.

The only reason euro teams have any more trouble than american ones is because they are made up of members from various different language countries.
It got worse at the point where english districts became known as "common" districts and has never gotten better.
I always played in international districts anyway. And with my new guild being based in america whenverf im not in international im in american mostly.
farmerfez
maybe because not that mexicans play guild wars...
lol j/k but yeah euro's all go to american because they are more populated.

<< playing on euro districts, spanish ones.
You'r not seeing anyone because we just: play with guilds in a travel-charge all-start sequence, we just play with english/german players and/or travel to america to buy/sell.
If it's more crowed, more opportunity to sell your little things.
A year ago we cannot travel to America as we can now (i think, dont remember when was that unlocked) so thats the main point.
However the WoW, AoC and others are getting our minds (and $$) to play em and leave some GW action...
Personally, i just play H/H (most quest are easy to do so) or Guild, or both. Almost never (and ever!) again with american/euro players from outside... Too much crap pugs in this world...

Spain just won the Euro's so there probably still all out celebrating. God if England won, people would only just be finding their way home from the pub even though it was near on two weeks ago!
(translation for you americans: Spain just won the European Soccer Championship)
Oh and PVE better in America?? I think i laughed myself a Hernia. We have stupid players both side of the pond. Not exclusively in Europe.

Euros do PvP so they hang are actually playing instead of pointlessly hanging around in PvE areas
