    Where were you ? Did you have your zone chat closed? I was annoyed by the amount of traffic last night in a VR1 zone where I was farming rune nodes.

    LOTRO is how old now? This game is what.. a little over a month out? When you have to beg to get people to do Dolmens this early on...

    DC, Rivenspire VR10 Right now for 2+ hours. Another reason VR will kill the game.

    Hmm, haven't run into this on the lower VR levels...always tons of folks about.

    Though there are a good number of VR10 players out there, it's still a relatively small pool, divided into 3 factions, so player density is going to be an issue for people who are at end game.

    Yea it definitely thins out the higher VR you go by ALOT. That's why they need to do something about it. Where are all these VR10 people are talking about? Quit?

    I'm sure a chunk of them have...players concentrating on getting to end game quite often quit and move on within 30 days of launch because that's what they enjoy. I enjoy a more leisurely stroll to the end and still tend to run ahead of the typical curve, but in the past when I've sped to the endgame, I've ended up with nothing to do and no one to play with. I'd rather finish a little ahead of the pack and have plenty of people around.

    It's what ran me off from Rift and NW, in both I got the endgame fast and had noone to play with.

    True but I wouldn't call what I did rushing. I play so casually, maybe my casual is what others call rushing. I clicked, gathered, read and collected most everything.

    I couldn't imagine doing the alt to anything higher than 1-50 in this game again (that would be a struggle).
    Probably crafting alts also.

    Easy way to check...look at your /played time. It will give you an idea of whether you rushed or are just efficient.

    There are no casual players at VR10, they may be casual compared to the racers, but you are still playing much faster (possibly more efficiently) than the majority.

    Will have to check my played tonight, it's probably around 8-9 days. The games been out 50'ish days and I've probably averaged 4hrs a day.

    Mostly in Cyrodill or in Dungeons or farming something somewhere. The people that have been in VR10 for some time are not exactly interested in PVE. I am now Rank8 this is moderately high rate of advancement and it is clear that I will not find many people around since they are either taking it slow or have already reached VR10 and do other stuff. In about a month we can expect higher population VR8-10 zones. Lower VR zones seem very much alive.

    It is probably because the vet 10s are in Cyrodiil or at the lower level vet zone where the major city is. From what I have seen usually they just park in a city till friends decide to do stuff, seen this in every MMO.

    Anyone saying zone chats are having hours without chat is a liar, period. Looks like someone is just a hater trying ro scare people away.

    It's happened to me before when the game glitched. A relog fixed it. TBH, I think it only really happened when I was playing on a 3g connection after moving house... bit of packet loss.. connection with chat server gets funked up.

    Dude, get a clue. You can't fake the sky falling in ESO-- there's only one server and we're all on it. :p Chat goes by so fast in every single faction that I can barely get a word in edgewise! Do you A.) have /zone chat off, or B.) have your PC monitor off or ESO minimized while you stare at a desktop wallpaper of an empty ESO scene or something? LOL.

    People dont talk that much in higher vr. They are there they just dont say anything. Vr was great early it was silent but the vr1 and such areas look like the trash in the rest of the game.
