Goon 2 to EU? Give a portion of the playerbase a reason to choose it.

Anecdotally, walking around at 140 pop a ton of people are staring blankly into space within 5 minutes of round start. Aggressive autocryo measures? Guardbuddies drag afk players to cryo??

EDIT: Add a "respawn in alternate universe" ghost spawn button that just redirects you to goon2 lol.

EDIT2: Increase mult of lifeloop on afk people?

It's not necessarily as simple as "goon2 to EU". We can't just magically move our servers to the EU. I think however, it would be interesting to freeze lifeloop on AFK people, and a direct to goon2 button while dead would help for sure.
