I'm sorry, but I just kind of miss playing on UK Escape with the lot of us that are geographically challenged. Also, we wouldn't want to lose any of our Europe traffic with the loss of the UK Dedi would we? Just wondering what other people are thinking...

Why in the world would I vote no? I don't play on the server, but what reason would I possibly have to vote no unless I wanted to piss off a bunch of people overseas? :confused1:

Better ping for the Uk people. Though the majority plays on the U.S. servers anyway.

Side note modgers get leveling.

I loved Uk escape because it was the only escape server of steamgamers.com where my pinger isnt higher than 50?

Knew it would be a matter of time before this thread was made, and ofc I voted yes.

Im also think that a one off EU Defuse server would be good, american defuse is normally full of euro players when I join.

I say no, only temporarily. I'd like us to get a third american server on west coast before expanding further.

Although I personally never played on UK Escape, I did see, and heard, that it was the most popular EU server that we had. I believe it should be brought back at Haggard and Companys nearest convenience.

It's not like we need a new EU dedi to get one back running. The UK escape server used to be just a separate owned server.

Exactly - no need for a dedicated.. A hosted one would do just fine :)

but it would in effect, cost a lot more just to run that one server, probably as much as 2 servers on a american dedi.

I agree with Luxz0rs, I get my accent taken the piss out of by some fat american kid.

it hurts me inside :crying:

Did you guys ever stop and think that it hasn't been brought back because of the money involved?

No of course not, we purposely haven't made another because we hate Europeans and want to lose a good portion of our player base. That's obviously more logical as to why we currently do not have a UK server anymore.

what about have a eu escape insted of the tf2 server??

This was discussed. The tf2 server is stopped and we aren't paying for the individual server as all our US servers are hosted on 2 dedicated boxes. Closing the TF2 server gained us no money.

How much would the server cost a month, and are there enough europeans admins/supporters to justify having that server?
I would bet there is.

Just face it, UK Escape is gone, just enjoy the US server with all that sweet sweet lag and delay
