Gotta take care of some stuff but will definitely be back by around 8pm est.
It's a damn fine mod....would be perfect for our server. It's small too man...only a little over 200MBs which is really nice.

I tried it when it first came out a couple months ago. It was still too young a mod. It was in that half new have regular BFV phase. Seemed alright just too early to tell.

I figure this might be a niche for us in addition to DC....plenty of unpopulated POE servers...not many of these though.
We'll see.
I like it so far because it's mostly infantry maps....

Of all the Bf series games and related mods this was the most lag free one I've come across. Certainly a lot smoother than FH, DC and BFV.
Perhaps it was the server you were on? These are very small maps little detail.

Wish it was the server, but I know it's my pc. It's not the greatest.

Honestly Burke, I wouldn't bother. I'd stick with DC, FH and PoE. Those three are the most popular on a given night.

that's why I thought this mod might work for you.
It's a good solid mod...but it's mostly infantry oriented....which I like because I get sick of all the vehicles and aircraft at times.
Although, I will say this....POE is growing on me again. With all the eye candy turned on...it's a pretty slick mod. I don't like the sounds they put in this particular version but it plays well and seems to be fairly balanced.
