After a disastrous attempt with Multiplay who are just terrible. HFB Servers were a snap and we were up and running with a 50 slot server in no time. Seems pretty easy to configure although i might not say that when i get into the tough stuff.
Even though the server is in the US and we are playing in Australia, we are quite happy to settle for a 200 ping in return for a stable good server environment.
Multiplay Server kept resetting/kicking us because the Domination map was apparently too CPU intensive on a per person basis due to their throttling. Compared to HFB they are way more expensive and can't provide a stable server environment to save their lives. A big thumbs down for them and their business model.
Once again, thanks for letting us know about HFB Servers
Cheers
