Where do all the players go?

[VeganMobster]

This weekend I played BOS after a long break, and was looking forward to some multiplayer action. But for some reason on Saturday evening (GMT +2) I only saw two servers with more than a couple of players on them. One was Wings of Liberty and the other Air Domination. Communication on both servers was in Russian, so I couldn't understand anything that was going on. 

 

I remember there being EU servers and a Syndicate server, and even others. Are they still online? It also seemed strange that on a weekend evening there were a total of maybe 50 to 60 players on all the servers combined.

 

Should I be looking for servers somewhere else? I'm looking for an international English language server with a Teamspeak (or similar) setup.

Like you said that might have a longer brake. ......

Mobster, without say in what Time Zone you are is difficult situate...

 

Yesterday I see (through il2forever) ~48 players in Wings server, in this exactly moment is show 35... Of course I dont know what language the majority there talk.

 

You can check what server has players  (without open the game) in:

AFAIK - The servers in USA is TWB - The Eagle Nest and NEW WINGS - Wargrounds.

 

In these days is advisable join to some group, squadron, "clan"... to have some partners to game.

 

The true is most of "virpilovs" are in... Warthunder.

Weekends are catch as catch can. Some are good others less so. Depends on the weather? I find I can fly in well populated servers M-F from around 0900-1400 PST. Do the math for your timezone. I'm a dedicated Luftie but I fly with a few guys on TS now - both normal and expert. Send me a PM if you want to wing up online.

Thanks for the replies. My timezone is GMT+2, as I mentioned in the first post. Maybe I should have said UTC+2.
