I know I'm probably going to get into some big trouble for posting this in this thread, so sorry in advance, TWI. But upon playing some Ostfront today (For map ideas), it made me remember how much I loved Ostfront. The problem is, there are almost no servers available that aren't Russian, or bot servers. Would anyone like to set up a night to gather up a bunch of people for some reminiscing?

Again, sorry for putting this in the HoS thread, but I felt like it would get more attention here :( . Desperate times call for desperate measures and what-not.

The Danzig server fluctuates throughout the day, sometimes totally full, at others just around ten guys. You can find me there crushing the opposition. There is also the Old Farts server on Thursday nights. It fills up and stays that way most of the night.

It would be cool if there was an American based server that has a consistent population other than the 24/7 Danzig. I'd say the Old Farts server would be the best place to try and seed, but you should bring a few friends to get it rolling.

Ostfront is still the best game as far as mechanics goes; nothing else touches it in terms of spontaneous magic moments and real translation of keyboarding skill. See you in there :cool:

I've just started playing RO:OST again after an 18month hiatus. The only thing the game ever needed improvement-wise for me was suppressive fire (which DH has I think? Or was it MN, can't recall) & perhaps bullet / ordnance penetration.

Fortunately I'm in Germany so decent ping to Russian server, I bought RO2 when it came out but just can't get to grips with the "feel" of it.
