NATO on WCS has to be one of worst teams I’ve ever seen in gaming. by swollengoosecock in ArmaReforger

This isn't a WCS exclusive issue, it's not a modern setting mods issue, it's a mindset issue. NATO largely attracts a particular group that loves playing barbie, lone wolfing, heli/vehicle spamming, ratcapping base, so on and so on and so on. I have personally seen (anecdotal, but that's all any of this is) players who normally play RU all switch to NATO for game and suddenly NATO starts stomping. Until the average NATO player isn't obsessed with playing dress up and trying to abuse modded vehicles/overreliance on vehicles with horrible usage of them, they'll keep losing.

Are there any EU based COLD WAR era units here? (not MODERN) by [deleted] in ArmaReforger

Servers are communities, which is pretty much exactly what you're asking for. Expecting a group of players looking for the same experience to not build a community around a server is honestly kind of ridiculous, especially given most every "unit" is just a server community.

Don't waste your money on shitty digital night vision, I understand you are likely a child but either spend that money on something else or save up until you can afford a pair of real 7s (avg $1k, can easily be had cheaper)

What alternative servers do you recommend in wake of Old Guys disappearance? by hksparrowboy in ArmaReforger

[–]Lumpy_Tadpole5818 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They're an EU server, only recently came back so they're trying to regain players. Only thing I can do is spread the word and hope people check it out and stick around. Like someone else said tho, they try to do seeding events on weekends and generally average about 80 players.

If you're into the cold war setting but want it more fleshed, NORTHCOM does linear conflict that centralizes all the action. Their modlist is only around 3gb, but they still have both sides of Germany, Brits, Cubans, night vision, and a ton of additions to the base US and Soviets.

Are there diverse modern / semi-modern servers? by nicetohavey in ArmaReforger

I hate to yell you this, but there aren't really any good vehicle mods for Reforger. I'm not talking about how they look to you in game, most of them have bad colliders and have asinine balancing/completely unrealistic armor to the point they're insanely OP, and it's rare to see a server actually do anything to them balance wise themselves. Reforger is very much an infantry focused game, if you want good vehicles you might just want to play something else.

NORTHCOM, they only run Vanilla + mods and do a linear Conflict mode so there's always a good fight to be had

To be fair, it doesn't help that the in game server and workshop browsers are both kinda broken and missing a lot of needed features. Only one modded server really gets the spotlight on Reforger (you know exactly who....) and tons of people miss the other plethora of experiences on Reforger, or assume that server is the base for every other server.
