[coggy]

hello all, uk player returning after a long break and i have been on reuion but finding it hard to get any teamage as i starting from scratch and most people on are dinged toons doing tf?

would it be worth moving over to this server?

If you're on UK time, it may be better to switch to Reunion which is active mostly during EU evenings.

I think a lot of EU players have migrated from Reunion to Excelsior (me included). Definitely worth it in my opinion, if you like to team and participate in end-game content.

I'm UK based, and I only get to play in the evening or at weekends. I've never had difficulty finding a TF starting, or recruiting for one and having a full team within about 5 minutes.

 

Regular mission teaming is a bit more tricky. Haven't tried for radio missions.

 

At the moment I typically log in for the MSR (so, 8pm our time), and then potter off and either run some solo stuff or hop about joining TFs.

 

Feel free to add me (@TalonGrayson). Always happy to, y'know, play the videogame...

When I first came back to the game I went to Reunion but am now on Excel. Unless I'm on a late shift at work and log on around 9am UK time, I've not really had an issue forming or finding. For example, I had a day off today and was on around midday and even then was able to form an 8-man Who Will Die (part 1). I can't guarantee you won't team with 50s who've dinged though! But there are often younguns.

there’s quite a few of us on excelsior, i often play in the evenings and have amassed a healthy friends list of UK players

 

regrettably, a few people i’ve added to my global have turned out to be welsh but that’s life i suppose 😉

At the moment (mid afternoon in the US Eastern time zone and early evening in the U.K.), there are 100 people on Reunion and 600 on Excelsior.

Excelsior is crazy populated at pretty much all times of the day.

I am an EU player and I find that Excelsior is much more active than Reunion despite the time difference. 

 

As a former Union resident it s a bit of a shame but I find teams and forming teams much easier on the Excelsior.

Cosmic Council is a large organized SG.  We have a few players in Europe including a very regular UK player.  You might want to check us out on Discord:

read the Rules and info, if you are interested, then post in Gateway (under public channels) that you agree to the rules and who you want to bring on board.  Good luck!

I'm from the UK and playing Excelsior. It's a little quiet in the mornings but plenty of folk around from about 2.15pm onwards. Which I guess is 9am Eastern when various East Coast companies' IT support have got through morning standup.

I played with a bunch of nice people at 4 AM EST (USA) from the UK the other morning. They were in AE

I should inform the Americans... comics never took off here like they did in the US, despite the UK having produced some of the most reputable comic book authors, Gaiman, Morrisson, Moore, etc. - so City of Heroes didn't really have the same impact it did over there.
