I find it curious that Americans, by and large, do not play Firefight mode.
Granted, I am an American, and I didn't play it much throughout my RO career. But after the same maps over and over, same tactics, same everything, it is nice to play some fast and loose pickup games.
And when I am most in the mood is typically later at night, and especially Friday or Saturday night around Midnight or later, when I somewhat lubricated and simply looking engage in close combat situations without all the voice chat and arguments that come with Territory or Campaign, or the long waits for something to happen as a defender, the long waits for a spawn that will lead to a 10 second life as an attacker, or the extremely lopsided games where one side digs in and slaughters the other side who can't take the first line of defense, etc. But the Firefight servers are empty then.
There are times when I enjoy Firefight tremendously, especially when there is a server full of human players and many of them are very good. Unfortunately that only happens during the daytime.
The Europeans seem to appreciate Firefight more, as there are usually at least two servers nearly full during what for me is daytime.
At about 6 PM Eastern Time they go empty and it is rarely more than 6 humans in a Firefight server the rest of the night.
While it makes for good bot farming to level up classes and weapons, it is always much more fun when there is some worthy human opponents.
If there is a Realism Firefight server people are particularly fond of with a short ping for American players, I would be happy to start visiting it on a regular basis if other people want to revive the Firefight mode of play.
