new bases does not mean new players
recently, I created a new rebel base, other imperial players did the same
I'd like to be optimistic but ...

Empire faction commanders have gone from 86,500 to 87,045 - a gain of 545
Rebel faction commanders have gone from 62,564 to 61,578 - a loss of 1986
The faction balance is 58:42 in favour of the Empire.
This is mixed news. The Empire faction is thriving, but Rebel commanders are still leaving the game.

I have a feeling that the factional imbalance has more to do with the games intro, up to the point where it asks you which faction you want to play. If they had just asked my first thing which faction I wanted to play first thing, I would normally choose the Rebel faction but the intro of this game made it look like the Imperials would be more fun to play. If this is the case then more new players are choosing the Imperial side where it should be a 50/50 split.
I am not sure where you think this factional dev base imbalance exists... My Imperial Prestige account only sees dev bases on Tako right now. There have not been dev bases on Dando in years and Yavin dev bases dried up about 6 months ago. I used to be able to find dev bases on Hoth but this weekend I could not find a single dev base there. I am hoping that the Hoth situation is because of the Event structure and the fact that the infiltrator reward from the conflict and that it goes back to having dev bases within 10-20 skips next week, otherwise this just became a one planet game for my Imperial Prestige account.
My Rebel account commonly sees dev bases on Erkit and enough dev bases on Tat that, combined with the low gear threshold, allows for easy enough UCs there as well.
So my Imperial account only sees them on Tako and my Rebel account sees them on Erkit and sometimes my Imperial account sees them on Hoth and sometimes my Rebel account sees them on Tat.

I don't think the 'fix' is to make the dev bases even easier though... I think the only real fix here is to make dev bases exactly as difficult to attack as player bases, that way no one finds bases that are easy, aka a more level playing field. Then they should work on making it so that players can attack players again.
This game has come down to hunting for dev bases to be able to complete Event and Conflict objectives, for both factions... what a sad state...
