As you may have noticed, we have opened a second server again, with a new host (if you missed it, go back and look at the top of the main page of the forum again!). The old #3 server (GameDaemons) is still running as #1, and the new server (ClanServers) is running as #2.
I deliberately set both of these servers to be on the same map (McKenna) so that we can get a feel for how the new server does compared to the old server, keeping as many things as possible equal between them.
So here's your mission, should you decide to accept it: go play a match or two on each server, and then report back here on which server worked better for you as far as issues of lag, smooth gameplay, etc., are concerned.

I played a little on both tonight. Thought 2 was a little smoother when full than 1....that is just an opinion though. Maybe because i got better kills!!! LOL

Number 2 gave me a slightly higher ping, but I had fewer lag issues than #1. I play pretty well on either, but I didn't notice as many lag spikes on 2 as on 1.

Well, I can say that #1 is very, very[/b] faithfully doing its job to endorse ClanServers by lagging like crazy.

I would say #2 is definantly better. I did a 45-2 session last evening on it, and my last two sessions on #1 were 36-4 and 28-8.

I've done some more playing on #2/#1 and again I would like to reiterate that I have less lag tantrums on #2 than #1. My ping, however, on average remains the same. Somewhere consistently between 90-110 ms. It's funny though; you guys get those tiny lag spikes, right? Where sometimes it costs you your life because it happens in the middle of throwing a nade and the nade doesn't go where you want it to. I don't have that happen much at all on #2, but a lot on #1.
My two cents.

I've noticed that #2 is a lot less laggy than #1. I get lots of lag spikes on #1.

Well, today I tried both; they were both really laggy for me (smooth mostly, but even CQB I couldn't kill without using about 20-50 bullets). I think it may have been just me though, because I saw many quick kills (including on me) from other players. I haven't seen #2 ever get as bad as #1 has; I guess that counts for something.

Here's my input -- Not many lag spikes. I get them a lot on #1, normally when it's something pretty heated like a firefight, but it can do it when you are trying to lob a nade through a window. I don't think the pings are any lower on #2 compared to #1. On #2 my bullets hit more where I was aiming, on #1 my bullets tend to lag a lot. Overall, gameplay was smoother on #2 compared to #1.
My conclusion: It's worth keeping.

Another day on #2; in the back, in the head, when opfor is coming up the ladder, when opfor is coming down; none of it works for me. I'm not sure how that reflects on the server though, because I think it's mostly Comcast... Or maybe I just don't know how to aim. ;D

This is quite simple for me; 2! the 1st server is getting me killed so much because of lag. Although for some players that may be likewise but then the 2nd server gives them lag.

After playing several times, I personally don't have a difference. I was on #2 just now and I took my sights up and pumped lead into a guy's skull at short range and it didn't even bump his gun up. ugh.
Edited because I was so upset I couldn't spell. LoL.
