Low pop is great.

But im always awake for high pop.

Lowpop is where all the RP is at, highpop is where all the shooting is at.

Lowpop feels empty to me personally. Just not fleshed out. Not enough people to mesh with. On highpop you have to wade through some noise, but it's worth it for the great variety.

Highpop kinda feels more like a military ship, at least in marine numbers.

marine players should be made to fill up a single squad rather than making 4 mostly empty squads if the server pop gets low enough

Most of my good roleplaying experiences seem to occur during high pop, low pop seems to be more likely to have short lived rounds with the marines just crushing the handful of aliens that do spawn. That's probably just one experience of many but it contributes to why I prefer high pop, that said... It gets a little hectic at times when you have 20+ marines in one place, nevermind the first drop on high pop.

^This.

~100 people is when the game feels the best imo.
"Memories can be vile. Repulsive little brutes, like children I suppose. But can we live without them? Memories are what our reason is based upon. If we can't face them, we deny reason itself! Although, why not? We aren't contractually tied down to rationality. There is no sanity clause. So when you find yourself locked down in an unpleasant train of thought, heading for the places in your past where the screaming is unbearable, remember: There's always madness. You can just step outside and close the door, and all those dreadful things that happened, you can lock them away. Madness... is an emergency exit."
