Frontiers is a conversion of HL2DM that offers the immersive experience of a migrant's journey into Europe from Africa and the Middle East.
In carefully remodeled conflict zones and migration hotspots, the players compete in the dangerous struggle of refugees and borderguards. It is a multiplayer game for up to 16 players, where one party, that is mainly unarmed, is trying to either cross a specific area (border) or escape a raid situation. The other party, mostly security and military forces, can use all necessary force to prevent this. Weapons vary depend on the local conflict situation with the guard side always changing identity. After a specific amount of succesfull crossing, the refugees are advancing a step towards Europe. Guards get promoted for the succesfull arrest of refugees, kills are never being rewarded. In some levels, they might lead to a loss of points.

Is there 1 server for this mod or how does this work ? Can someone explain it a bit to me ?
Just klick on "Play Game", and u will join the Server. There are 5 maps which will change each 20minutes. 1 Map has deactivated gameplay, it is only 4 minutes long. You can explore this "Final Room" without fearing to get arrested, shot or bribed.
You can drown, however.
Do many people play this game online ? If yes i will download it for sure and play it.

The major flaw of this mod is that it's based upon the oldest possible of Source so it will often crash for no reason.
One would also expect something that deals with serous issues to not look so cartoonish and be more realistic as well, ie assault rifle gun being an Ak5/Fn FNC and the pistol a Fort 12 instead of something more widely used in Europe.
When we started developing the game some years ago, this was the only SDK available. Porting it to a new version later on was no option out of several reasons.
If you stick to the recommended settings (game menu), you should not have any crashes playing online. If you do regardless of the settings, please report your crash as accurately as possible in our feedback form, as we might be able to patch the pain away.
"It is a multiplayer game for up to 16 players"
You know, reading is a wonderful thing if you embrace it... Just saying. ¬_¬
So?
There are "multiplayer games" with "single player" modes.
