for sure. I already have a dedicated box, and theres no way I am going to a terrible company like gs just to get this game.

My provider runs circles around GS, and they always are helpful, unlike the gs staff, who wouldnt know how to get themselves out of a paper bag.


But, again, do some research. go find out who owns gs, and you will have the answer to this stupid ass riddle.


All they have to do is open it to more providers, but that is asking too much from a company being ran by monkeys

Im bad at riddles.

Our clan has a dedicated box through gameservers and have had no issues with our machine.   I agree sometimes they have issue with rented servers because they put too many servers on one machine and overload the system at peak times.  Dedicated boxes do not have this issue.

F*ck black ops... Lets go Medal of Honnor??

Is it 100% certain that you have to buy a server? I don't know how stuff work with this gameservers, can you explain? As far as I know I have to enter some guy's server which he bought, and also cant play with my friends on private matches without renting a unranked match am I right? 

Not everyone has to rent a server. But someone has to, otherwise there wont be any servers for the casual gamer to play on. In the past, clans have mostly done that. I guess it will be those clans who don't run multiple games from a dedicated box, but rent by the slot who will be doing it for Black Ops. Just like the clan I belong to - we have just pre-ordered a ranked server for $14.95 for a month, which is less than a tenner in UK pounds. See how it goes after release, and if all good, order again on a 3 month basis after that.

This is kinda the point of contention. If you run a clan server and need to pay $15/mo for it.. How many game types can you host? If you only host one, wouldn't you host the one your clan plays? So, say you host a CTF server. That's it. One clan server with CTF running. How is the casual gamer going to jump in to a FFA game if most servers are single game, clan hosted? We used to host several game types from one server. So, we'd host a CTF a TDM and throw in a FFA for the casual gamer or for those times when you don't want team objective matches.
If you can do that with the GS server great!

Enjoy no prone and no lean and no mod tools at all.
