    GMT Happy Happy Fun Time!!!

    Soooooooooooooo, what I would really like to acheive in my capacity as an admin is provide support to Eurozone GMT players to ensure that we can have the same level of player numbers and admin love at our USA buddies receive.

    With that in mind I am throwing this post out to all eurotime players to tell me what you would like to see to ensure decent play in GMT friendly times.

    Please list what you would like to see on or off the server to ensure a good playing experience for you.

    I will go first.

    Server admins to work on optimizing where possible network speeds for euro players.

    Dedicated admin presence when possible starting at 6PM GMT at minimum on the TS admin channel.

    Support for more skin diversity (I know the TG Mod is doing this already) with specific map support for UK players who would like to see some blighty uniforms.

    GMT centric events starting at 8PM GMT.

    Training events undertaken by active or ex real world military (insert country here) personal to train in specific doctrine for that given country if its fun or interesting to undertake. for example range training with the SA80.

    Yes me too, it is no problem to stay up late, but would be great if the server was populated from 6pm to midnight like you guys said. And missions playing as Brit, German or Russian would be also great for a change.

    Yeah, GMT is my timezone and playing until 0500 is sometimes too late for me. Since I need to perform my morning ritual of 3 "S"s (minus the 1st S) before I head out to work at 0900hrs or if lucky at 1100hrs. Although, having said this. I got used to sleeping 3~5hrs a day. Less if I'm "lucky"

    HOTMACHINA in my oppinion you pretty much nailed the things that would make it more Euro-friendly.
    But something the admins can't do much about is that more euro players should try to play regularly on the server at GMT-friendly times, i would if i wasnt mostly alone

    Re: GMT Happy Happy Fun Time!!!

    Hi Guys,

    seeing a more GMT friendly approach to events would be really great. Its the one thing that bothered me about TG was that I had to stay up late at night to play quality missions. Also the weekend event usual lasted well into early monday morning. So I am all go for these Euro events!!!!!! Maybe we can even get some UKF mod up and running.

    well thats just my 2 pence worth...thanks for reading
