    Game pooling players from different brackets into 1 server.

    I find myself playing the game and sharing a server with players from a different bracket. Why is this? I think it is a problem... I want to play with other players that are from my bracket. Too often I find myself playing dark zone with only couple of players in my bracket, but see a lot of players talking in chat that are from different brackets.

    Why is the game pooling players from different brackets into one server? It's already bad enough there are only 24 players to a server, but pooling different brackets into 1 server lowers that number even lower..

    What's up Massive? How about pooling everyone in the same bracket on one server! I want to see and play with other players. I can't pvp with other players that are in a different bracket...

    just a simple question.... are you new to this game?

    or are you just now figuring out how broken this game actually is?

    What are you talking about ?

    If they are on your server they have met the gear score requirements to be there meaning they most certianly are "in your bracket".

    It is not normal for people in 0-14 bracket to be on the same server as people in bracket 25-29 bracket and 160 bracket.

    You can , or you are supposed to be able to, join freinds in a dz HIGHER than you but not lower. No one should have issues with this as anyone that isn't supposed to be in your bracket shouldn't be any threat to you at all.

    This is supposed to keep friends playing with friends.

    The biggest downfall of all these brackets is that it separates friends.

    I can't play with half my friends list because I am in the top bracket. They rand no chance up here. It's annoying and leaves me to play with randoms most of the time.

    Yea, I'm not joining friends.It's not normal for me or anyone else be on a server shared with players in higher brackets. I've started to notice this when I join a server, and it just seems vacant, but I see players in chat, so I've started to ask people frequently if they are in a different bracket, and frequently I've been told they are in 0-160, 25-29, 20-24, ect.. KEEP IN MIND that when I asked those questions, I was level 14 in the 0-14 bracket.

    As it is, currently, the game groups players in different brackets onto the same server, however, if you are in a different bracket from other said players, you won't see them, but on chat.

    Maybe that's the reason I keep getting g empty servers or transfering off of seemingly empty servers.

    That would make sense but how would they seperate the instances . That wouldn't make sense at all.
