Live in the states?
We got our server from the [BoB] Clan for a pretty damn cheap price.. .came with a ts server too! I believe it was 20 bucks (monthly) total for the 16 man MOHAA server and 16 man ts server.... and they give you 2 slots for both if you recommend them to someone else.. which is a nice deal!
As for their servers... We have not yet had it a FULL server, so we dont know how it runs under that condition... But our pings stay at a legit range 50-100 (server is in Dallas, im up in Northern Minnesota with a shitty ISP... so im really impressed).
But Personally, i think the servers 'lag' just the slightest bit... Constantly On our server, and on other BoB provided servers, it seems to lag a fraction of a second.... For Example... When we aim at someone, we shoot, it suprising doesnt hit them (sniper only). Trigger Lag.... But its nothing HUGE, just takes a bit of practice getting use to.... I dunno...

I got a server from
www.i3d.nl , they are one of the best gamehosters (in the netherlands), and very..very cheap, for example a 16 slot server u pay 25 Euro's for 3 months, other gamehosters are asking 50 or 60 Euro's for the same quality.
But it's just a suggestion if u live in Europe

Do NOT!!! I Repeat Do Not go with Xgameservers... TOO much $$$$$$ for no service what so ever. After three months of not connecting to gamespy we dumped xgameservers because they kept saying that they have no control over gamespy. A gaming provider should know how to set up thier servers to connect properly.

Ya, awhile back we had xgamesservers..... Ew. like you said, to much $$$$ for their 'support'....
The lag i speak of isnt huge, its just a minor thing.... and its just a guess ... not entirely sure but i guess you can see for yourself if you want.

Don't know if you've had any luck with this here, but you might want to check out the forums at fpsadmin.com
This is for server admins so there will prob be more discussion on this issue.

in my expierience they cheaper the server,usually means cheaper game play.i went wit a game hosting company that was like $50 a month wit TS,but the pings was outrageous after it got full.i been through at least 5 different companies and im happiest with
http://serverxtreme.com.its located in the mid west so everyone can pretty much join and have excellent ping.i think there in misourri to be exact.plus there TS is also cheap.this place will even work out deals if you can show you paid less for it else were(TS servers)
and the game servers are deffinately priced well

not expensive at all.

its actually just serverextreme.com
and yea, bout 2$ a slot, not too bad.
im really happy with mine from excaped turkey tho, i have no complaints so far. also gate matrix was a very nice place
www.gatematrix.com but they just cudnt beat the price. server extreme also has great customer support, as does gatematrix, escapedturkey doesnt so much, but u shudnt need it.

Hey everyone
Is anyone using the escapedturkey servers for allied assault. If so my question is do you have CI or Foresight running on it. This is where I need help. They're forum is not much help in that area.
