I've been playing with FH for about the last week, and getting some sense of the maps and equipment.
Iwo Jima-Love what you've done with the place...hehe. The original map looked like someplace you'd go on vacation. The FH Iwo looks like the blasted hell it really was. Used the flame-thrower Sherman for the first time, great fun turning the enemy into crispy critters. Of course, somebody tried to use the aircraft carrier for a landing craft; I thought that silliness was only for BF public servers.
Played that D-day map last night, what a meat-grinder for the Allies! I wondered why we started out with so many more tickets than the Germans...Soon found out.
The late-war Germans vs. American map with the setting sun, clouds, and autumn foliage is really gorgeous. Got too laggy, though, and I had to quit.
Is the Wolf server the only game in town? I see a few players on some of the others, but Wolf consistently has a full house, so much so that it's hard to get in.
There are many good servers to join in. The 9th Infantry and BFE WAW servers come to mind first. But Wolf is very lag free (at least for me) and i join it when i can.
As an admin of the VSF server (though I play under the [HLA]SpongeBob name when there, along with fellow admin, LionRampant) I'm pleased you mentioned our little server. It certainly could use more traffic, though it tends to get lively toward the end of the week and the weekend, but we try our best to drum up interest. Always happy to see an invasion by the [SYN] people, you guys all play rather well.
The TDB server and the 130th guys have nice servers too, but I usually play on Dead Meat.

The above link is for the whole world, you can select it for only US, or only Canada, or whatever country you are in.
Very weird though is that Wolf is not showing up It was there before for sure... what happened? Did Wolf stop being registered with GameSpy?

No problem. Always nice to jump on your well behaved server Now if only i could get those "[SYN] people" to start participating in community forums...
Some bloody h4x0r removed FH@Wolfgaming from teh list!1
Seriously now, yes there are other servers besides WOLF, i can advise the WAW server mentioned before, the short tag distance and exilent teamplay makes it a very good server when there is a decent amount of players. And of course the WOLF server, but its usually full.. for some reason
You should cycle trough the servers mentioned and choose the ones that suit your style of playing, be sure to thread lightly when not sure about the rules of a sertain server, as they can differ quite alot.

That is very true. For example, in the Dead Meat server, base camping is allowed, whereas the Wolf server does not allow it. When you enter a server and youre unsure of the rules, dont be afraid to ask!
