Website server browser

Recommended Posts

tldr:
A online website which provides help finding servers for arma reforger


Whenever I have browsed for a arma 3 server or an arma 2 server, I have always done so using a website server browser.
I usually used arma swec se ( a website which kept statistics of arma servers )
And more recently battlemetrics as they provide decent search functionality and also statistics.

I know that these solutions were community made and maybe someone will make one for arma reforger one day as well!
Or maybe bohemia can have their own server browser for reforger on the reforger website.



What made such websites good?
Accessing the server lists from phone and from any computer, without having to start the game.

Statistics would help me understand at which times the servers are more active,
allowing me to schedule my play sessions well.

The extra search options and information was very useful to me,
I could easily find servers with mods.
I found one of my all time favorite arma 2 servers like that,
It was a public ace server in arma 2, I would have never
found it if it weren't for services like this!

What I would like
Maybe this is more for someone in the community to make a 3rd party website,
but seeing as mod workshop is already in bohemia's hands, it would also
be really cool to see an official service/website like this!
Considering this is something that would benefit arma 4 greatly as well,

maybe it would make sense to develop a website like this and find out

what kind of features and things would help players find servers at a higher efficiency.

Ideally it would be a website which can be viewed and browsed without logins etc.
The server owners should be allowed to claim their servers to add extra descriptions,
information, introduction video or tutorial and maybe even allow scheduling events.
If bohemia had such a service, they could even provide an allowlist and sign-ups for servers,

since the bohemia account is linked to the game.


Anyway...
I'm sure something like battlemetrics will have reforger eventually.
I think I always have a harder time browsing,
I always find such things very helpful for my multiplayer experience.
Maybe others do as well? How do people even find servers?
