The effects/aftershock of NY lockdown - jxie93 - 10-12-2009

Anyhow I suspect the reason people clump in NY is because they do.
That may sound like a 4-year-old's logic at first, but let me elaborate;

People play a game online in order to play with/against something besides the CPU.
People don't get that experience if they're playing online with others but only ever run into CPU players.

Hence when a little bit of clumping starts everyone becomes exponentially more attracted to this 'herd' the larger it grows.

It would probably help to alleviate it if smaller clumps could be established in other house capital systems and at Freeports.

I think its inevitable that players will congregate in certain spots, it would just be nice for that to be more spread out, not just "party in NY wooo!"

Your logic is undeniable. It's not what place the players flock to, it's the kind of players that clump. *hint: lolwuts

Well some.... 'congregation' if you will is not bad. Convoys, exploration expeditions, military fleets, a *few* (as in FEW) loitering Mercs/Freelancers from time to time...

But its when it becomes a pointless boring logjam that lolwutting spreads like wildfire.
