More server hosts for Black Ops
Sign Now
The Gameservers website has had the text back ordered 3 5 days above many of their locations for nearly a month now, one of those locations is Australia where we have been unable to rent a server since day one of release.
There are to my knowledge hundreds of people who are waiting for these servers to become available. The staff of Gameservers has been telling users on their forums that the servers for Sydney and Adelaide would be online in 3 5 working days for over three weeks, and have to date stopped responding to any and all posts on their forums requesting information about when Australian servers would be available.
We feel that to be treated this way is unfair and shows a lack of care on the part of Gameservers and would implore Activision / Treyarch to reconsider the exclusive hosting deal, as it is clear that Gameservers are unable to provide the hosting needed, surely on this basis the deal could be annulled.
Many users are now turning away from BlackOps as combined with release issues, (now mostly fixed), and the frustration of not being able to attain server rental, and on top of this being ignored by staff from the one and only host, they are leaving the game behind and moving back into Medal of Honor.
I myself am a big fan of the Call of Duty series but since the problems with gameservers have also found myself playing Medal of Honor rather than deal with the frustration of trying to run Clan servers from a host that simply will not provide.
Gameservers are not living up to their part of the deal to provide servers to the community, and they show little care that this is the case, you only have to view their Forums to see how many of their users are turning hostile due to this situation.
Black Ops has the potential to be one of the largest and long lasting gaming communities ever created but at this stage it is looking like that will not happen due to the lack of server availability and lack of care by the GS staff.
Please consider this and take into account that more servers means more sales and more people playing. GS are damaging your profit by running their servers this way.
