allanak

I know who gives a general population count, but is there anyway to see how many players are in a city? I'm wondering around Allanak for the first time and I've only ran into two actual players so far and all the bars are empty. Is the city really sparcely populated by non-npc people? I saw a poll earlier about which city had the best plot lines or something like that and it seemed that there was an overwhelming number of people who liked Allanak more than Tuluk, but now that I've made a character here, it seems that theres hardly anyone about at all.

Play during peak hours.

Thank you for your help.
When are peak hours? Are peak hours only on Fridays and Saturdays?

[Bestatte]

Peak hours are sorta now-ish, (as of the time of your post, no matter where you happen to be in the world's time zones), and on for the next 3 hours or so. Friday nights starts earlier and ends later, Saturdays start earlier and end later.

Just as a side note, it seems like playing numbers are down slightly, probably due to the holiday season.  So, just keep in mind that there are usually more people on.

Also, (Personal Opinion) think Allanak is soo much better than tuluk. First 'Nak is opressed by  fear, rather than love of stupid (Sun king). So if you want to have fun trying to get by, go with 'nak for sure, jus' remeber templars will kill, whip, skin, eat, ect... so your not safe at any moment...

I love the intensity.

Bah, you're hardly any safer up north.  You just feel safer until the axe comes down.

usually.. there is still about 20 people playing But I never see any body And too much stealing from npcs feels kinda twinkish.. with their ultra-blindness and all (Just joking)

Anyone that says something like this should have to create a Tuluki, and then make it known that they do not adore the Sun King.

Haha. Yeah, some dumbass should do this.

At least they would be able to die twice...

When I type who, it says there are 60 players online. I imagine that that's has to be a good high number of players for armageddon, but when I walk around Allanak there's still no one in the taverns, and there arn't many people walking around outside. Is Allanak a low population place?

No, I've seen plenty of people.  The trouble may be that it takes a crowd to draw a crowd, if people look into a tavern and see no one there then they are more likely to move on.  

IC time affects tavern populations, because durring the day people are at work, out hunting, shopping or sleeping off a hangover.  The largest tavern populations are usually around Late at Night and Before Dawn, because most clans give their employees free time at night, the gates are locked, and many of the shops are closed.  There is nothing else to do, so people go to the taverns.  I'd suggest parking at the Bard's Barrel, that seems to be the most popular tavern lately.  Upstairs you can gamble and downstairs you can listen to the bard sing, so there are things to do while you wait.
