2142 Weekday Players

Most of my 2142 play time is during the week after 10:00 P.M. If I do have a chance to play earlier in the evening the conquest server is usually full and the titan server is empty. It seems like later at night the TG server turns into a regular public server with all the headaches that accompany it. I usually see a few TG players and have a good time with them but mostly I see random players with no regard for the server rules or teamwork. It's frustrating but the few times I meet up with a good squad of TG players make up for all the bad times. Maybe I could increase my chances of finding a good squad/team. What are the best times and days during the week to join other TG players? What is the best time of the week to see the titan server running?

Re: 2142 Weekday Players

Usually the weekend evenings and afternoons are a good time. Afternoon Fridays are also an excellent time to find some TGers on the server. Otherwise, it's usually evening to late evening on most weekdays.

You mention 10 pm...what time zone are you in?

Re: 2142 Weekday Players

I'm on central time. What would be considered late evening? Is 10:00 very late?

Re: 2142 Weekday Players

I'd say that there are some who play well past 10, but most of us are asleep by either 9 or 10 pm. Well probably expect for me, but I usually don't game on weeknights. Between 6pm and 9pm is a good time to catch some good TG squads in action.

Re: 2142 Weekday Players

I normally play from about 6 to 9 on most week nights. Weekends I don't really have any sort of plan.

Re: 2142 Weekday Players

When I can, I hit the server around 9-10pm Eastern, and always find some very good TG games - good squads, structure, commander who commands and all that - everything I like about TG. - That is, when I can get on the server (hate seeing that 48/50!!)

But if I can't hit it until later, like last night, wasn't until 1:30am Eastern, the server was down to around 20-25 total players. In those games, I saw a few TG players, but they're usually concentrated into their own, or one heavy-TG squad.

Unless I can make it into the TG-heavy squad, the game can seem a little "pubbish". Usually the TG guys are good to split themselves up (really appreciate it when they do that!) across multiple squads, but not always.

All in all, TG definitely the best server I've found out there, makes BF2142 so much more enjoyable.

As for the Titan server, don't know that I've ever seen it running at all..?

Thanks to all the TG guys..

One, it's now the City Map server.

Two, it would usually get filtered out by the default filters since it had zero players. One of the default options kills any servers from your list that have a low/nil player count. If you go into advanced tab, and uncheck all the filters and search for "tactical", you should find both servers and can fav them, and not have to worry about finding them again.
