IMHO AoC mechainc so broken, and GM's very unprofessional, it's hard to understand if player use something or not.

The population seems fine, but a dungeon group finder tool of some sort would help a lot. I regularly see groups fill within minutes of the request in global - pity they have to use global though.

Can Devs please fix:
- new ressurections resetting the currently selected ressurect position
- loot timeout windows disappearing before progress bar completes when box hasn't been opened quickly
I rather like the fact that to group and raid, or do anything for that matter, one has to communicate in AoC.
As a general rule, any system that allows you to bypass communication between people tend to make people dumber, which is overall very negative.
Following the same idea, i believe WoW with its high level assistance created an entire generation of mentally challenged players / retards, unable to socialize, or operate at the most basic communication level.
As for the lack of endgame reward, i would tend to disagree. I'm not so happpy with some aspects of T5, yet, i do believe endgame in AoC does offer a lot to its veterans and/or most active/invested players, even more so now with the achievements system.
Now, one might argue that "reward" means power gear, but that's a point of view i do not share.
And i would go a sfar as saying that in MMOs, too many players focus on character power only, disregarding everything else, which ultimately is a big loss for them, because it just means they lost the very purpose of the game istelf and why one would play it in the first place.
To answer the OP question, population is good, but more importantly, there's a huge surge of activity with many players running after achievements. I like the current situation very much and would advise anyone fancy giving AoC a try to do it right now.
