I'm looking to start hosting WS & Surround friendly gaming servers. Looking at the services out there, I am leaning towards Game Servers:

If you have any suggestions or recommendations for a service, and for games to host, please let me know. I'm interested in hosting 4-6 ~16 players games.

Thanks for your input and feedback.

Certainly sounds like a good idea. Let's set up an event and see how many people will show. Also, can you post the relevant info (not sure what would be necessary) and I can post some info about the new server in the left nav.

Already have TF2 up on a private box.

Check your ping by adding homepc.cynagen.com:27016 to your favorites. It's a solid box, and it's on my home connection which just got the speed upped to 2mbps out, so it's more than enough to handle 16 players, and I never turn it off. So best part about this is, free.


Ouch, dood - I just got 2000ms latency.

But I'm at work, so their firewall might be shagging the latency.

Just a note. Copy pasting this address into xfire does not work. It only works in steam favorites.

OK, it must have been the work firewall that was doing it. I get a (more reasonable) 187ms latency at home.

I would join in with you guys but I don't have TF2

If we run HL2:DM or any source mods you can count me in, unless I shell out the money for TF2 at some point (might get the 80 dollar source game pack)

I couldn't join earlier because it said the server was unavailable. Most likely because I had to share bandwidth with a sibling streaming 20 episodes of Avatar over youtube. But now I get this:

Disconnect: Server uses different class tables.

I think I have had those in the past on mods when I forgot to apply patches...

Im pretty sure they mean one of you two is out of date so you aren't running the same server version and client side version.
