      I played on that server just the other day, I was frankly blown away by how smooth the gameplay was. Just no lag to be found-and I'm in England! Me ping was about 120, which I wouldn't normally like, but it was totally fine. Got myself a few knife kills and had a good time.

      My only minor gripe is that people were camping the uncappables when it wasn't the last flag to get-happened about six times when I was on, but I think when I mentioned it in the chat there weren't any <<R2>> guys on so that's not exactly your fault.

      In fact, I'm going to go see if I can get on there again now. :)

      Hmm, either I'm having a problem or it's down right now. Oh well.
      Guys if there is none of us on it doesn't mean that none of us are monitoring it remotely, so shout out for an admin and let us know who is camping uncaps and we will take care of the problem.

      Some people just can't respect the rules.

      Like the guy said above who is from England and had a ping of 120, I'm actually from Australia and it runs like a LAN game for me with a ping of 200. We don't have players on with a much higher ping than that as its setup to kick for high ping. Why does it run so well you ask? We don't share our server with anyone and if you check the above specs you will see why. It costs us a bucket load of $$$ for a fully dedicated box with those specs and bandwidth but its needed to play BF2, "the way its meant to be played"

      We have players from all over the world play on it. USA, Australia, UK, Germany, France, Japan, you name it!

        Hey <<R2>>s! Yer welcome. I'm a believer in credit where credit is due. You lot have put to most work into your server that I've seen so far.

        I couldn't believe it when I hit that comunity tab, clicked on the R2 demo files, hit download, and it WORKED! First time I've managed to actually view a Battle Recorder file since I got this game.

        Hehe, got a sweeeeeeet shot of me popping a Blackhawk with an AT round at long range. It's also been very handy to be able to scan through the battle and see where I screwed up.

        Anyway, I look forward to playing there more. When there's room, I'll be bringing some friends in tow.

          I agree, I played on this a while ago and gunned with Capt.HKS. Finally a server where people actually used VOIP. I loved it and will be back!

            Nice playing with you too bud, not a bad gunner either I must say It makes it so much more enjoybale for me to fly a heli with a good gunner and communication is the key as you would know. It also helps that I know exactly where to line the gunner up for a perfect tv shot.

            I agree that 2 of the best features that being VOIP and Battle Recorder aren't used enough on other servers. The teamwork is so much better using VOIP and to be able to catch those special moments on Battle Recorder which may only happen once is great.

            Has anyone made a movie yet from using BR on our server if so raise your hand and we'll check it out.

                :laugh:

                Yeah he's handy at making sigs. In fact we have a lot of talented sig makers including my Mrs who seems to change hers every other day and everytime she's not playing BF2 she seems to be whipping up another sig for herself or someone else. Also <<R2>>PSI makes some kickass sigs as well. Gotta love that hotty on DGuy's sig though :p

                Just a quick note the server was restarted to update BF2CC and now I can't connect to the account server I guess its down for its weekly maintenance grrr Looks like others have the same prob only 3 people managed to sneak in before it went down for maintenance.

                  How is your server traffic during the wee hours of the night? I usually am not able to play until about 2-3 am MST, and most of the team play servers are dead around that time. When I am able to find time to play during regular hours I will find my way over to your guys' server and check it out.

                    Our server runs 24/7 to answer your question! Not too many servers can lay claim to that!

                      Hiric, Sorry you had issues while on our server. We clamp down on the raping of uncaps when there are other bases to be take yet so be sure that it would have been handled quickly. Most of our regulars know we don't like usportsman-like playing. To be sure, give us another whirl when you can get on. Also try going on our TS, it's posted at our site www.r2clan.com and speak to an admin if you are having issues.

                      Thanks again for coming to play in our server!

                        We make no apologies for it not being a Karkand 24/7 server. I can't think of anything more boring than playing one map over and over and over again. I see in your stats that Karkand is by far the map you have played the most.

                          Another question, is your TS server PW protected? If it is, can the PW be found on your forums?
