I’m game. Which version, standard or experimental?
I might be able to host something on 2025-02-02T19:00:00Z but I can’t say for sure yet. It’ll be on the experimental branch. I will confirm on Saturday at the latest whether I can arrange something.
@tempusmurphy and I have been brainstorming mission ideas, there’s definitely some fun to be had

I can fire it up, even right now if one of you want’s to build a mission. If you are alone on the server you can vote yourself as game master and start building something. I probably won’t be able to join right away at 20:00, I might even run about 45-60min late.
Edit: Server is up on the experimental branch

Can’t connect, says I have a ping >900ms. I think there’s something weird going on with their network, because I get high pings to all the other servers as well.
I can’t check right now as I am away from the PC atm. If it doesn’t work out tonight I will make something work next weekend. Either Friday evening UTC or Sunday evening UTC

I quickly checked on the regular branch and it seems to work there. Maybe they rolled out a bad update, or it’s something on my end.
Edit: There seems to be a problem with Bohemia’s services. I’ll check by later if it’s resolved, right now it’s not working for me.

Whatever works best for you guys.

I think there was DDOS attacks this week, maybe this is a remnant of that.
I would say defer to next week. I can’t make Fridays though.

Same here. DDOS is still going strong, apparently originating from a Russian group that’s attempting to extort Bohemia for ~$81,000USD and demanding they stop ‘recreating the RU/UKR conflict’. Or some such.
Reforger and Arma 3 official servers have both been affected on and off throughout the last week.

my reforger (experimental) has just had a steam update … with no patch notes or news
It’s either a fix for the attacks, or an unauthorized patch planting ransomware on thousands of computers.
