Now I wonder: Why the heck don't any Americans join in?

- no P51?

Like many other people, a lot of Americans have moved to the 4.10 servers until the mod packs come out for 4.10. Then we'll be back in the BoB server. I remember that there were usually a good 40-50 people in that server all the way to 02:00 GMT before 4.10 came out.

and its always the same map (at least the last time i was active on it)...... only the planeset differs. and are there missions with good weather ?????

for me WoP servers are superiour, moded and stock 4.10 !

I like to fly BOB on Saturdays and usually have a solid ping of 150ms from the US, but after 5pm local it's a ghost town.

Great server.

Not only plurality of missions, at Warbirds of Prey, new missions are constantly created and all are gradually been adapted to 4.10. At many, you can use the beacons to navigate more effectively.

Also, at no other server I was able to join a game with 90+ players as that "D-day special". Average server population is quite good - many squads (+CRT2).

Although this OT:

The reason many blue pilots try to avoid Spit vs 109 is the "balanced" planeset.
43 FW vs '44 P-51, and such stuff.

At least it's obvious who's meant by "prey".

I personally do not like the later plane sets 44' and 45' on WoP for the same reason, when you're low you're food for the spitfire, and when you're high there's the P47 and P51 fighting for every single screw on your plane.

That doesn't stop me from flying bomber sorties though, often the Arado Blitz bomber is available and you can perform some serious bombing raids with that magnificent plane

I really love the server, it is full of action even with few people thanks to the ai planes.
I´ve only had one problem, i´m from Uruguay and my ping is often above limit, if they will set the limit to 400 it will be great for us South Americans

I only fly there(wop) because the herd is there, I rarely stay long.
To many coddling rules on wop for my liking, I feel like I'm flying for the UN.

WC was fun from time 2 time but after 4.10 no one plays there anymore.

populated cockpit servers are getting harder to find
