Well I have been reading all the topic and just dream of a 2MB connection,More servers and more nOObs, I would just like to make connection to the out side world. South Africa has 6 BF2 servers IN TOTAL, ADSL prices that is so high you cant explaine (a 512k line will cost R466 ($77) and that is excuding the cap) and our little cap that cost R642 for a 10 GB cap and that is the highest that it can go ($107) and now for the players we have 852 +/- player and our clans are better then all of your clans and the player.. for example FiB is one of the best clans in SA and ASF is the best in Urban. We can take part in the world cups becuase of the lag. I dont know how many of the BF2s readers know about SGS ( http://games.saix.net/ ) that is our little hosters feel free to read our Forums....   so to all you Germans,Brits and what evar    Wellcom to South Africa and the pains of Telkom and Eskom

That's a shame, but why did you post this?

To say, "We rock but we can't be in matches because of shitty internet?"

Well, ok. Good game.

Its true. Our Internet is only run by one company, so the monoply just rippes us off BIG TIME. We have some of the most dedicated players in the world. Check our stats: http://bf2s.com/rankings/score/za/ Its just rediculous. Uncapped and a 1MB line would cost a total $475. Rediculous. Vietnam is even far cheaper ffs

Yup...i'd seriously move! Fact...I did.
I had only dial up and I actually moved to a different town where one of my prime considerations for moving was fast DSL.

Yep, my friend Onryou is on 56k, he says that there is only 1 internet provider.

No competition = high prices

The internet prices remind me of the time when we first had broadband and it costed £30 a month to uphold a 512k line.
