Just after playing a few rounds and I can safely say #1 is a lot more choppier and laggier than #4 for me, which is unfortunate. I now literally lag into doors with an average of 130-140 ping. I don't think i'll be playing security for a while. Some may rejoice at this fact
#5 is fine, not because of the lower playercount, but because it's run on a beefy server (I don't know the exact terminology, haine or wire gave the rundown on a different thread)
If any admin is reading this, then here's a general sane request that I will put forward:
Swap #1 server with #5 server.
Why? Well, it makes sense really.
#5 has a beefier server which would suit higher player count, but has lower playercount. Swapping it them (maybe even swapping the names to avoid confusion) would mean people from the EU won't be so put out by going to #1, while the RP server players would barely notice the change.
Maybe i'm confused to the actual mechanics of it all but it really would help as I know i'm not the only one from EU that has this issue, and I wouldn't want it to back to #4 if the US people suffer too, so this would be good middle-ground.
