Best time to experience lots of players online…where did everybody go?

[Tonester]

Hi all, back after a 6 month hiatus and have noticed that the numbers are way down for online.

Im in Perth WA which is GMT +8 timezone and it used to be if i jumped online on a saturday or sunday morning

around 5am my time the main popular servers were all either full or very heavily populated. This

would continue right up to around 9am my time. Lately ive noticed that anything above 20 players

is busy! Such a shame how far this great sim has dropped…I remember back when this started happening

in Cliffs of Dover and it only got worse to the point that now their servers are virtual ghost towns but at least

they would have AI bomber groups to go chase so it wasnt completely lost…unfortunately this sim

doesnt seem to have much of that.

If there are times that you know will have high(er) numbers please let me know…just give me your time and your timezone and i will

do the math to figure out what time that is at my end…thanks

Generally Euro evening/US afternoon is the peak time these days.  Right now it's 20:00 GMT and there's around 250 players online, with two servers up around 70.
