Any US Servers out there?

Hi folks. I was wondering....where are all of my US fellows? Everytime I jump on to play, I see UK servers and German servers. Being in the US I can't really play on those servers, the lag is too bad. Only once have I ever seen any US server being populated by anyone.

So what gives? Is this game just for Europeans or are any North American folks going to jump in sometime? Am I just missing you all or what?

    What time are you playing? I've always seen US servers populated in the early evening.

    I count 17 U.S. servers with 3 populated right now. More generally, I find the Lunixmonster or Team #156 servers to be the most regularly populated ones at the times I play (evening PST). However, nearly all of servers are full in the day right after a patch.

    That's because people want to PLAY the game and not test. So, when they see that the game isn't playable they leave. Which sucks cause I can't get a chance to try it on a US server with a decent ping ><

    Ping doesn't matter anywhere as much as tick rate. I rather play on a high ping high tick rate US server than a low ping low tick rate EU server.
