Avoid SeeMePlayMe, support doesn't exists (we rented server and could start use it after 2 weeks from payment), you can read their forums as well. I suggest you My Internet Services and Rackage, had only good experience with them.

Re: Clan Looking for a BF2 Server

Y'all should know what I'm going to say - MyIS all the way. Support via tickets, IM, and TS (and now Vent). If you also need a website in addition to the server, it's extremely cheap and affordable, and I honestly think you're getting the best deal if you stick with MyIS.

Re: Clan Looking for a BF2 Server

I use two server providers, both are very good -

myIS for my main clan 32 slot BF2 server, because they're the least expensive and customer service is good. only downside is there's no full ftp access but that wont concern most.

and also I use GameServers for our unranked 12 slot match servers - GS have a very good web interface and give you full ftp access so its easy to access battlerecorder demos and upload custom maps and mods like bf2pro etc..

Re: Clan Looking for a BF2 Server

I'm pretty sure I did a few months ago when our ranked server was with GameServers.. maybe its changed since then.

Re: Clan Looking for a BF2 Server

I use MyIs for my server needs and the Eod Mod testing. 32 player, can upload and do what I want with the box with BF2CC. Of course, it is unranked, but was originally ranked with Vanilla BF2 running when I first acquired it. One email and within 24 hours, I had it unranked and ftp access to it so that I could setup and run my mod builds.

The box came setup with BF2 and SF. I have since added my EoD mod build, as well as, FH2, IDF and some other mods that I do testing and mod work upon.

Overall, great service, great price and I have had no issues. Support system was excellent with good knowledgeable personnel to get it up and running.

Re: Clan Looking for a BF2 Server

Wow! Thanks Total Battlefield Forum users. Your helpful/positive posts are rare in the Battlefield Community. :thumbsup:

What a breath of fresh air. It can be hard trying to organize and manage a BF2 clan with so much negativity out there. Some of the forums are very fast to respond with quick successive attacks. And, some forum admins actually encourage the negative atmosphere.

:evil::evil:

It's a shame because the game and alot of the players are great.

See you on the Battlefield!

You won't get FTP access if it's a ranked server as this can cause problems. Unranked you will however to allow modding.
