Can I get NA player to post their ping

to racksrv.com and to 78.46.77.131 > my current server in Hetzner Germany.


They seem to have good ping for EU players and for me in west coast Canada its 60ms faster then from Hetzner my current server provider.

Trying to find an EU server provider so that NA players have a lower ping with my current FT server.

edit: Added results to your server also remember to add a few ms to the results usually the in game ping is 20-60ms higher than ping results. Reply

K so I got a VPS from Racksrv in UK and here's the IP. Im having some packet loss so if you can can you please post a longer ping and trace route if possible.

IP 213.5.182.149

In windows to keep the ping going use

ping -t 213.5.182.149

For trace route use

tracert 213.5.182.149

So seems hosting in UK is a good location for both EU and NA players unfortunately the prices in the UK are way more then From OVH or Hetzner. If you don't need a full server then a VPS would do. Reply
