Where is Everyone?

[3./JG51JG51Geist]

So I've decided to blow the dust off my HOTAS and fire up my PC and  try getting back into IL2.  I have fond memories of the IL-2 1946 heyday and decided to explore what the scene is like now.  I have to say, Im really disappointed, multiplayer servers on a Sunday at 8PM EST had 8 players on the busiest server.  Not sure what I'm missing. I know I'm out of touch but for someone wanting to get back into multiplayer IL-2 wheres a good start?  Should I look into flying with a squad? what times are most popular for multiplayer in the US?  If anyone can point me on where to go, it would be greatly appreciated!

It's midday Monday here and there are nearly 60 guys fighting on CombatBox server alone right now. Personally I haven't seen a problem with the numbers.

Things are quieter than they used to be a couple of years ago. It's also the summer in the northern hemisphere so folks are out and about which cuts down the numbers more.

 

I've been on Combat Box a bit recently and noticed that after 8:30 pm EDT it starts to pick up.
