I love trackmania to unwind (canyon's my jam at the moment). I'll often work through my rdio queue or listen to podcasts whilst playing. Also, the ui looks like geocities which makes me giggle.
Sydney, Australia. I pay AU$59.99 per month, plus about AU$20 per month for the landline - which is only used for this ADSL2+ connection. There is no bandwidth limit with this plan.
You're very welcome @biscuitsandtim - since turning it into a Vanilla server with no mods, it's fostered a really nice community of players from Australia and beyond. I'm going to keep it going.
Recently I've just been checking in every so often, going invisible and seeing what people have built. I'll start playing again after the next wipe.
As Sexy Toad mentioned another duder has set up their own server, might be best to check that out.
There are problems with sending ones and zeros to the other side of the world, but I completely understand where you're coming from @pazy, it's frustrating.
The only other thing I haven't tried is a server wipe. It's working fine for us here, but not for you guys it seems.
I decided to buy the game on a random whim but I cant seem to do anything on the server. I cant interact or even see my hands. Any idea whats up?
Hey Pazy, the US is having a real tough time connecting to Australia today - I've edited my first post to reflect it.
Just the US? Im coming from the UK.
I guess I can add the UK to that list too! - I just restarted the server again. Do you know what kind of ping you have? I just tried connecting to a US server, and the connection timed out for me too.
So thoughts about moving to a more centralized server?
Can anyone host in say, Asia or Europe?
I don't want to screw our gracious Aussie hosts, but the lag can be pretty unbearable.
This is a really good idea! - I don't want you duders to have a bad experience, and the overwhelming feedback so far seems to be that this server isn't working for you guys.
