I can confirm that EU servers are broken. There is no need for additional information or anything, they're just straight out broken. Either they are very cheap and low quality, or there are some issues with clusters as someone said here. From my experience, after a few minutes into the game, like 10-15 minutes after game starts and people start joining, server FPS drops to 5-15 and the game starts lagging/skipping frames/jittering. After a few more minutes, the game completely freezes, everyone stops moving, voice chat stops, your character freezes and you can only move your head but not move. The server is still alive when this happens, the server FPS and latency variables still update, but the game is dead. At this moment everyone just quits and joins a different server hoping this won't happen (Previous posts talked about this too in this topic), then after the new server people joined reaches 20 - 30 players, it's just repeat cycle. It starts from the beginning. My own opinion is that EU servers are terribly low quality, people said that US servers are stable, so the problem should be at Bohemia's partner in hosting EU servers, they're most likely providing cheap servers that don't have the capacity to run the servers of a game like Arma Reforger. And all the EU servers are hosted from the same location, I know because they all hame the same ping, someone also said they have the same IP's, so the problem might be there. If any developer of the game joins an EU server and plays for only an hour or two, they'll see that everything I said happens so whoever is responsible of Arma Reforger's servers can test it out themselves. If you have any questions about my experience in this problem you can ask me. I might also have clips of this happening but since this happens all the time and one can just recreate this in possibly less then an hour, I assume I don't have to provide them here.
