With the cost of the extra game disk, XBox and extra DSL connection it would prob average out to 100/mo and the only time I got a donation from my team was a one time thing of ten dollars from one guy
Unfortunately there's an added cost because EA makes it's money off the ranked servers. It costs TG more to run a ranked server than it would to run an unranked server.

Re: Thx for the games, but I am out

it would be interesting to have the server in some sort of 4:1 conquest to titan ratio. personally, that'd probably be the type of ratio that'd work best for me. I like conquest best because of the problems Titan has (not to mention people just know how to play as a team better in Conquest... i don't think we've quite as well figured that out judging by the last titan night), but throwing the occasional Titan would make a marathon Saturday/Sunday (when I can play this many games) a good mixing up.

Anyway, that's enough rambling. I'm not sure having two conquest servers would do anything except have one full of pubs since TGs tend to like to play with TGs.

PS. I'll probably not be playing much because i'm back with my parents' for the holidays and all I've got is my laptop. I can play on my dad's computer sometimes, but given that he plays WoW so much, it's unlikely I'll have much access.... not that i've been around long enough to have people REALLY care, but I'm explaining anyway!

For someone who is out, you sure killed me enough times last night.

Some people just don't like Titan. Some don't like Conquest. Mixing modes would be like a football fan sitting down to watch a good game on TV and then having women's golf shown for 20 minutes at the end of each quarter.

Re: Thx for the games, but I am out

I'm up for titan too if you stick around! Although, it seems most want to stick to conquest because it's familiar, has better fps, and less lag.

Stay on board even if you don't get a membership! Just look at me, I've been around since before TG got its TG branding. It's a leech.

Re: Thx for the games, but I am out

I dislike Titan Mode, not because of the mode itself but because it STILL lags a fair amount for me. Its almost pointless for me to even try and assault the titan.
