The ranked server hasn't played one live game all year, and it's just sitting around doing nothing right now:

and the unranked server has had THREE people at most ALL YEAR

http://www.game-monitor.com/bf2_GameSer … story.html

Recently I brought TF2, and alot of other guys from bf2s and KNTL play together, so why not change the server to that to see how it goes?

The cost of a TF2 server (10 euros) is cheaper than both a ranked (25 euros) and unranked (15 euros) BF2 server, so I don't see a problem with i3d letting us change it, I'm sure they would prefer their server to be full in one game than empty in another.

We don't need to pull out of BF2 completely (who knows, maybe the patch will bring everyone back like the good old days, I doubt it though),but just change one server (probably the unranked one).

I'd pay the 10 euros a month for it being changed.

I know these threads allways pop up once in a while and nothing happens, but I've got a good "feeling" about this one.

I agree, but in due time I think. IF this happens it will probably happen very near to the time of Trackr opening up to everyone (including me )

Yeah, the server set up is still being worked out for trackr. I would be quite suprised if we didn't get at least one TF2 server somewhere.

Before you decide where to put them, I think polls should be done IMO to see which region has most TF2 players and same for other games.

Who cares. EU is all that matters anyway.

Yeah UK servers are fine for me, even under 100 ping most of the time.

Chuy has contacted me about this just yesterday ( not about TF2, but about the game servers on trackr in general ), and I can assure you that we are in the process of working things out. However, we are still in a pre-stage, discussing structure and staff on the trackr platform.
No final decision has been made about the games that will be run on trackr game servers, although we do have a list of favourites.

A hot tip for a server would be running BF Heroes when that is released, a certain owner of this website has special interests in that venture

Wait behind the line ..............................................................

OK that's good news, but how comes the austrialian guys got a COD4 server?
