The apparent lack of Australian servers....
« on: January 27, 2008, 03:21:43 am »
Ok, I understand that GameArena is a very famous australian server...but I don't want to play normal soldat.
Those of you living in Australia, may have noticed that there is an extreme lack of R/S, trenchwar, climb, and duckhunt servers in Australia. Back in 1.3.1, there were LOADs of Aussie servers, so whats made things change?

I only see a few servers in my list with the Australian flag next to them. One R/S CS server, and 2 gamearena servers. and a select few passworded clan servers.
Whats the problem here?
Just another soul to burn.

Just look up the bandwidth pricing on any Australian datacenter and you will understand.

2 Gamearena Servers!? There are 6! Including the Passworded-Public, too keep people from having a more challenged play against other aussies.

There are countless servers in my ping range that are below 100 ping.
It's not like there isn't any

Yes, it's true, Australia does lack the servers running R/S, climbing and realistic. We do climbing through booked GameArena servers but I personally have only ever entered an aussie R/S server once in my life, when they decided to put one up. It didn't last long, guess it wasn't very popular.

I never knew you were aussie TBC. ;D
