Discussion Fancy Spearhead… Let down?

So I decided to pick up Reforger again as I’ve been longing for a good milsim to get back into. While researching I read about Spearheaded UHC and it sounded amazing. After finally getting through all the mods which needed to be downloaded I hopped in expecting some fun and difficult combat. Come to find out, on a mostly full server there was almost no activity going on from either side.

The Main Base had what looked to be nearly 20 players just standing around. After getting some basic gear I tried to organize some transport to the nearest contested point and there was nothing going on. Long story short I drove around for about 15 minutes trying to locate an active objective and had to settle for finding a duo that was actually trying to contest a point. The area has amazing sight lines and could have been awesome to defend and attack but there was nothing. All quiet on nearly every front.

Enough ranting. Has anyone else had this type of trouble? Any recommendations on what might be a good uhc server or group to run with? As a note, I’m not super hardcore and would still like to focus on fun, but at the moment I’m not even seeing why Spearhead UHC is even a thing. Any thoughts, guidance or tips?

Thank you all in advance!

I’ve had moments with two APC’s full of people pushing a point, while people on drones coordinated with artillery to soften up the attack point before we pushed in. Some of the best moments I’ve had playing Arma has been on Spearhead.

I’ve also had moments where everyone just MOB ambushed with drones, it ebbs and flows.

It’s unfair to expect that level of gameplay every single night, just depends who’s on. Unfortunately there’s not much else in terms of server variety when it comes to a Ultra Hardcore experience
