Bloody Europeans grumbling about it being in Germany, Texas is nowhere near being centrally located in North America and I usually get the same or higher ping on Texan servers than I do on East Coast ones. 100-140 ping doesn't stop me from cracking skulls though :)

That's what happen if your country is so big. I'm pretty sure Texas is quite locally if you look at North America. Maybe a bit to the south.  :P

Its the only ideal place centrally. Infrastructure in the middle states? Thats like Fiber Optic internet available in kentucky  :wink: (I told the people, I'd personally pay for the Fiber Wire to be connected to my house. No dice.)
"The Lord is my light and my salvation- of whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life- of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked advance against to devour me, it is my enemies and my foes who will stumble and fall. Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear." ~ Psalms 27

And the current US Official MM server is in Texas.
That explains why I usually have 90 ping on US servers.
They might not realize that the US is very large and Texas isn't exactly central...
Having a server hosted in Texas of California AND a server hosted form Philadelphia or New York might be more productive...

I take it that you will pay for those servers and also know a good host?  :mrgreen:

Texas is in the dead center BOTTOM of the south of the USA, not a great location if you live in Canada (even though most Canadians are not that far from the USA).

Nebraska or Colorado would be nice, but yeah I think Texas is a major hub in the internet infrastructure in the states and I highly doubt Nebraska or Iowa are. I'd love a closer server but I've never had any real problems playing on Texan or East Coast servers to warrant demanding & funding a closer server.

Oh gosh, I live in Quebec. That's about as far as you can get from Texas in North America, 'cept for Nunavut and Labrador.

Oooh, Inter-US connections and all the way from Sweden to Italy, how terrible.

I'll just be over here in Australia being a non-existent market for multiplayer titles.

With all the new blood, I reckon servers will jump up left right and centre. Including Austrialia-based.

We now have official servers:
- Germany (Frankfurt)
- United states (Dallas,Texas)

Clans and regiments also have a whole bunch of servers up from all over the world. However I'm not sure about you aussies!

If there is a australian clan regiment or anyone really that has access to a server box, hit me a PM for the server files and ill send them over to you.

Cheers.
