Wich server is more populated, NA or EU? And by how much?

EU has a bigger population in ESO

So far, almost 60% think the EU server.
Or they are like me, and just voted because they ARE on the EU server

Some days it certainly feels like EU server is filled to bursting it's electronic seams

Cue times for cyro at peak are 45 mins MINIMUM but are usually in the realm of 1hr to 1hr 20 mins

As lots of people have said no real clue of other server but judging by the number of threads complaining about pvp on EU server vs the number of complaints from NA, either EU players complain more or NA is less populated (& better maintained - it feels like NA maintenance is more proactive while EU is maintained reactively)

I'd say EU is more populated because a lot more problems related to server-overwhelming number of connections at the time occur on EU than on NA. Hardware is the same so the only reason when EU is having problems and NA not must be that EU server hosts bigger number of players at that time.

Most oceanic players use NA, and a few from EU as well, so overall it's probably NA. However, I'd say EU has the most concurrent players, since it's prime time is within a much narrower time slot than NA.

Does it matter ???

They are both way too small for the "real" world...

Nice nercro, a bit outdated I say.

i play on ps4 NA/EU and PC NA/EU and i like them all just fine the way they are ty putting them as 1 would make it hard to do lots of the areas in game dolmens , PVP, WB , PUB dungeons, mats , over all lag , dc's , long load times , log-in timers, ect ect
just to add more people when there is more then enough playing as is with lag being bad now , long load times always been issues , PVP cant hold que as is most days your in full camp on 2 or 3 camps and dont have an event then its 1-2 hours to get que , dolmens as is you better be in group or youll be lucky to get 10% of the xp and counted for add kill for FG skill line
SO AGAIN THIS IS NOT NEEDED AT ALLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm an EU player who played on the NA server quite a few times. We have a lot of players on the EU server. There is no reason to move the EU server anywhere. If anything we need a more powerful server. The ping is just way too high for EU players to enjoy playing on an NA server. Group content, especially PvP would be unplayable like that. I would probably quit if I had to play there regularly.

This thread was totally necroed for no reason. A server merger would be catastrophic for this game.

All of this raises the question, why ZoS treats the US population+servers so much better, even though EU is evidently the more important and profitable realm. As is the case in many MMOs as far as I have seen.

Is it really only because the devs themselves play on US or because Zenimax people can not physically visit the EU server room? Perhaps it would make sense to finally show EU some love instead of treating the majority of the game's population like second class. It is 2020... distance and borders can hardly matter so much anymore. I see why you would prioritize the country/realm you as the game dev are located in. But, is that wise?

imo they are feeling like altmers, dunmers - they are better and EU is worse so why do care more or even same for NA when NA is better than EU for them?

I see no other and even any other argument for this so we are left just with our guessing and so feelings like they are threating us as worse sort of playerbase
