Guild Wars 2

Does anyone have the slightest idea of how many people play GW2 still? I’ve just came back to GW2 from playing ESO, because I want to play f2p MMOs instead of having to pay to play.. And I just want an estimate of how many people play this game total, and how much people are active. Since numbers like 7.8 million or on WoW, I’m just curious if there is huge numbers for GW2.

With the new megaserver you will not come across a zone that does not have activity. So does not really matter what the numbers are.

Since GW2 now has its own version of the “megaserver” in PvE, there are lots around. I still see plenty of people in WvW as well, even if borders have taken a hit because of EoTM, EB is still filled with action. Not really seen a reset night yet though. Havent played PvP either, but then again that was hardly crowded to begin with. This is my experience coming back from ESO as well.

No game come close to WoW in population as far as I know so no point in compairing with it, lol. Do keep in mind that out of those 7.8 million, there’s probably 4 million chinese farmers and 3.7 million multiboxer accounts. The rest are legit accounts.

I can almost guarantee you’ll find zones practically deserted . . . I think Timberline Falls is one place which can be expected to have minimal player presence. Almost would add Straits of Destruction there too.

Last we heard was 2.5 million logging in weekly and I think they picked up another 3 million in China.

Will always have people in low level areas and high level areas, however mid level areas most people are just passing through from low to high level.
