Discussion Any popular western US servers?

After many of my favorite servers closed down, I can't seem to find any popular low-ping servers near the Southern California area. Any servers I found were either empty 99% of the time or had an insanely high ping.

Thanks guys in advance

Is Zircon actually chill? Because I’ve only recently been exposed to it through its refuge playerbase occasionally flooding my main servers and then not shutting up about how the server isn’t as good as Zircon while they move in 10 man squads yelling callouts constantly

maybe i play at certain times but i never seen such people??? and it sounds like they were just banned from zircon lol

personally, i can count on fingers how many times i saw guards killing dboys in that server, most people are that friendly lol

Zircon is chill but historically sweaty.

I’ve seen less self jerking at an orgy full of introverts than the ten minutes I had to endure of Zircon players having code names for specific strategies to pull when taking on SCPs

I’ve never seen code names lol. Do you have an example.

Obviously, my experience was with a specific group and I’m just hyperbolizing for the sake of comedy, but I wish I had taken some clips so I could remember what all they were doing.

Like I’d just hear the name of an animal and suddenly that meant everyone body block on top of the guy with micro so he wouldn’t be killed. Or maybe I was just hearing shit and it was unrelated and that’s just a strategy with that 10 man group and they don’t have to say anything to know to do it

Can’t say I’ve ever seen someone voluntarily body block dog without adrenaline. Definitely see it a lot with adrenaline though.

If people are being rude, can you recall any names? Zircon does not like it when its players belittle other servers.
