European (English) Districts Populations

How busy are the European districts now that they split them up into different language zones. I’ve played on the American districts since launch because it was easier to get groups in the final BWE and the game just kept me there when I purchased it.

However, I am conscious of time zone differences and note that during my main playing time (weekday night and weekend afternoons) the American districts are not very populated and rarely in the missions do you get beyond three districts. Also contrary to popular belief Europe seems to have the favour of the gods more often that not during these times (although they’ve lost it by the time I log off).

Therefore, if someone playing in the European areas could comment on how many English speaking districts they get in the mission areas I would be extremely grateful as I don’t want to waste any of my five transfers.

Many Thanks

I play in these regions and they're not all that busy. It really depends on where you go.

The Main Ascalon region has a fair number of instances (I think I've been as high as 7) but later in the game after the 'sand trap' missions people get scarcer and scarcer.

I've managed to be alone for a while in some of the more out of the way regions (Hero's Audience for example). Places like Augery Rock and the mission places seem to have a reasonable number of people in them.

I usually play evenings (so figure 1900-2300 GMT).

Wow, and I thought it was a slow night if ascalon had less than 30 districts up. I've been in the 70th or so district. Good reasons to be on the American side.

it's probably easier to find groups in the European districs...less people = less confusion.
