A little background on the USA server: The USA server joined the FPI EKT team in January After 1 am GMT time it was apparent that the majority of players were from North America while there were still a few from the EU. With US ping times higher to Germany is was an option to redirect those players to the US We were manually invoking a command to switch over players at the map end, and have since automated based on time. I was even going as far as asking if the majority of the players were in the EU and thus not switching them to US server. “Host: The server will switch at match end.” We saw this as a way to accommodate players by Geographic’s to provide optimal player ping times for the NA players. While I understand this can be seem to be unfair by the EU players but what we found at that time in morning the majority EU players were not playing. The select few EU diehard players are affected. We should be a little more descriptive in our messaging to the players “Host: The server will switch to the USA server at match end.” We were by no means are making users stay in the US if they don’t want to. We could also entertain changing the time to 2 am GMT also. We are currently looking to staff moderators in the US so players can get teams balanced when needed. We meant no malice in choosing to do this, we were simply trying to provide an optimal gaming experience. Tony

I've tried configuring minelimits, and vehiclelimits with the individual Map ini files and do not affect the map when loaded. Am I missing something that is overriding the map ini files? Are these settings hard coded? If they are hard coded, why even have Map ini files in the Config folder. Can someone enlighten me if I'm overlooking a setting. Thanks Tony

I agree with Agent,. I'm from the old Ren days , there was no team switching. I see ppl switching teams, stacking up good players on one side to constantly dominate. Sux the fun right our the playing. my 2 cents
