Forge is great… when there is a crew there.
Too often I find it empty as Oryx' Court and here it is just weeks after release and that makes it maddening. I'm slow-crawling my way into the zone so the wee taxed server system can try to match me into a pack already running, but it only seems to bring me together with an other crew every sixth time - at best. What a waste of time hanging out there alone, or some other fidgeting player hoping enough critical mass can gather for some fun... and fun it is when it's populated. This mechanism is a Fail. Points for style and intent, but execution is incomplete.
As an aside, the single SIVA at a time is not helping this bottleneck.
Let us hold and select multiples, because the investment of time to get there if you don't have one, but want to play with those who do, is stretching beyond my patience anymore. I'm enjoying a great deal of this DLC, but this area needs some TLC. Immediately.
Open to suggestions from community…

Are you playing and going into it at geographically inopportune times? Only asking because the only times I consistently run into empty forges are when i pop on at really irregular times, like now, considering it is 3 am where I am.
