    Starting up your own server?

    We have a server here at work with 2 P-3's (not sure about other specs yet) that we're taking offline. And we were jokingly talking about puttin back on the network as a bf2 server lol. How much red tape is there to go through to get a ranked server up and what kind of specs do you need to fluidly run a 64 man server?

    Only certain GSP's can run BF2 ranked servers, unless you do custom ranks - not sure if a P3 will cut 64 players, but also depends on network and ram.
