Server location?

I've been thinking about buying a try out month on TG, but i can't find anywhere were the servers are located? (Battlefield 2 servers, that is). As location will effect my ping quite much.


I live in sweden FYI, if anyone else form sweden plays here and can inform me of ping times to the TG servers I'd be very greatful.


// thanks in advance.

Re: Server location?

I believe our servers are located in Texas. We have many overseas players who have a high ping (~200) but are still able to have a great experience on our servers.

You might want to post something in the BF2 general forums to ask for those overseas players opinions.

Re: Server location?

There's nothing like playing on the servers to see if the ping is acceptable. You don't need a supporting membership to play on the public servers.

Re: Server location?

I was wondering about that as well because 99.9% of the time your servers rock! It's just wonderful how the internet allows people from around around the world to come together and kill each other. I get choked up just thinking about it....sniffle sniffle Sing with me my brothers and sisters.....we are the world.....we are the children.....we are the ones who make a brighter day so let's start killin......

Re: Server location?

not sure the michael jackson 'teint' to your post was appropriate...

for the matter: i get 130 ping on CS:S server and only get a lil high choke on some maps but mostly i'm fine... sometimes have to empty a whole clip into some1's throat but let's presume that's just my lack of skill

Re: Server location?

Code:
C:> tracert 70.86.19.218
(snip)
15    72 ms 72 ms 71 ms  po2.sm-car4.dllstx5.theplanet.com [70.84.160.166]
16    73 ms 74 ms 67 ms  218.70-86-19.reverse.theplanet.com [70.86.19.218]
Based on the "dllstx5" part of the FQDN of the router just before the server, I'm going to go with Dallas, Texas
