    I am uploading the game to my server as we speak, Its taking longer then I want :( but it will get there. The server is hosted in Portland Oregon and has two tier 1 providers for bandwidth. should be about a 50 to 60 ms ping to the east coast on tier 1 providers during peak hours.

    The server is going to be a work in progress, lack of documentation at this time is making setup rather difficult. I did get it running from a console correctly though and it will atleast be up and playable for you guys. Runs just like the COD4 dedicated server was setup. I will provide hostname/IP and port when it is up and ready to be tested :D

    ANY suggestions/complaints are welcome, and if you find any decent documentation on dedicated servers let me know please!!!!

    4 hours left on the transfer LOL!

    they dont have a stand alone dedicated server, you throw a switch in the multiplayer exe to get it into console mode. so I have to upload the whole game as I am not sure what you can take out and what not.

    stand by
