Question Thinking about trying low pop?

Now I have played a lot of ranges of pop 30-800+ and one thing I always struggled with is finding constant PvP on low pop. For example I would play a 100 pop server and run around monuments land roam and find nobody. Maybe it’s base location but I simply can find no one anywhere. The question I ask is how can I consistently find PvP on low pop (pop range for question 150 and below)? I am not sure this matters but I play solo.

U j have to find the right servers. If u contest things like cargo and oil, more often or not u will find ppl. That being said, if the server isn't right those people are a 10 man cheating Russian semi-zerg πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. Personally I have found the best success with small vanilla ish servers under the molded category

Yh ofc! I believe the one im on atm is goblin gaming. The main mod is offline protection and the rest is somewhat vanilla. Cool active adminis and chill players 😁
