The front has some serious problems with servers at launch. There are no OCE or SA servers. Dedicated ones are also not functioning. Some players even can’t see them.

The Front is a post-apocalyptic sandbox game set in a world filled with mutants and hostile factions. Players must confront tyrannical imperial forces, exiles and many more enemies. The game offers a wide range of activities, including base construction, crafting, farming and more. Exploration takes players through various terrains, from deserts to snowlands, as they scavenge, collect blueprints, and claim airdrops to strengthen their position. The game attracted an interest of many people. Not all of them are happy though, as there are some problems with servers (and by some we mean many).

No OCE or SA servers in The Front

Many players are surprised that they can’t see OCE or SA servers in The Front. It is worth to mention that developers announced regions in which they will host servers. They are: Europe, North America, and Asia. If you don’t live in one of them, you may have problems with bad connection. At this point it is unknown if there will be more servers in the future, but it is very probable if the demand will be high enough. However, there is a possibility to host your own server.

Hosting dedicated / private servers problems in The Front

In the same post, which was linked above, developers also informed that it will be possible to host your own servers:

Solo/Hosted servers: You will be able to use your PC to set up a server featuring customizable content such as the server name, description, and various in-game parameters rules. To play with your friends, simply set a password for the server and invite them to join.

However, many players report that this function does not work. Luckily, as we can read on Discord server, the situation is known to developers, and they are working on it:

We are aware of that Steam CMD Client is not applicable at the moment, we will keep working on it!

PvE Servers not connecting or can’t see servers in The Front

It is not all of the server problems. Players also report that they can’t see servers. And even if they can see them, many people can’t join them.

It is not a secret that the premiere of The Front is quite problematic. It is probably because the game is more popular than creators suspected. On the other hand, even the biggest games with large budgets have problems with servers on launch. We have to wait for developers to fix all issues.
