Is This Game Dead Online?
After taking a little break from RFG mp to play Borderlands and AC2 and stuff, i come back to find that it takes around 5 minutes to get into a game?
I clicked siege, my favourite game type, and it never found more than one other person. When i click any playlist, it says it only finds like 3 games, and 2 of them get no response? Is this a problem on my side? I think my NAT is open, since when i run the tests it says its fine, but can a game this good really be dead?

Play on the weekends. I usually finish 30 games on saturday.
There should be alot more people since the THQ pack went on sale. Just wait for alot of people to finish the campaign. |

Yeah, unless you find a peak time on the weekend its pretty much dead.
Making it very difficult to get these multiplayer achievements.. should have done them first. |

I never have to wait more than 3 minutes to find a game, usually about a minute. It is indeed fun online though.

The PC version is almost dead, I've had to give up playing multiplayer because I can only get 2-4 max when I look...

Well, as of today, the game is still quiet, but not too hard to find a match under Team Anarchy or Anarchy. During the afternoon/evening is your best bet. Weekends are also pretty popular. Never takes more than 5 minutes to find a game for me.

Hopefully more people will start playing this online again when they realize that Red Faction Armageddon only has "horde mode" style multi-player and no competitive matches against one another. Starting tonight I know I'm going to try and see if I can start getting in some matches again after a long hiatus.

It can take a while to get in a game - tried Sunday evening (GMT) and it took 20 minutes to find a game.

It's nice to play/boost with friends but playing with randoms is a pass.
