Hey everyone,

 

As John mentioned in an older announcement, we had plans to swap dedicated machines from Canada to Virginia.

Today, we have successfully transitioned all our servers over to OVH’s Virginia dedicated machines!

We switched from the Montreal, Canada location to Virginia, USA, because players were experiencing abnormally high latency, and it was affecting the player population for all servers.

By switching back to a US location, most of you should see a lower ping compared to the previous dedi, giving you a smoother gaming experience!

This change will also allow us to experience an influx of newer players and hopefully see older players returning.

We will be able to more easily reach players in regions such as Europe and Asia based on the new location.

 

The following servers were moved, with their new IPs:

Server Name IP
Zombie Escape ze.steam-gamers.net    (135.148.5.19)
Jailbreak jb.steam-gamers.net    (135.148.5.20)
Minigames mg.steam-gamers.net    (135.148.5.21)
Trouble in Terrorist Town ttt.steam-gamers.net    (135.148.5.22)
Scrim scrim.steam-gamers.net    (135.148.3.0)
Skill Surf surf.steam-gamers.net    (135.148.3.1)
Retakes retakes.steam-gamers.net    (135.148.3.2)
1v1 Multi Arena 1v1.steam-gamers.net    (135.148.3.3)
Bunnyhop bhop.steam-gamers.net    (135.148.3.4)
Free For All ffa.steam-gamers.net    (135.148.3.5)
TF2 - 24/7 2Fort 2fort.steam-gamers.net    (135.148.5.23)
TF2 - 24/7 Dustbowl dustbowl.steam-gamers.net    (135.148.5.24)

 

You can find a full list of all our servers in the servers tab: steam-gamers.net/servers

 

For those who haven't seen the specs yet, here are the specs of our new dedicated machines:

CPU AMD Ryzen 7 3800X
Cores & Threads 8 cores and 16 threads
Clock Speed 3.9 GHz and 4.5 GHz with boost
RAM 64 GB DDR4 ECC 2666 MHz
Storage 2x960GB SSD NVMe Soft Raid

 

Big thank you to Liam Brown for helping to make this transition as smooth as possible, and another big thank you to BoTo for checking all servers to make sure they are stable so we can hop on immediately to play.

 

We understand that this swap may or may not result in possible minor hiccups.

If you experience any bugs or problems, please report them to the appropriate server subforum and reach out to the Server Managers in charge.

 

Normally your favorites should update automatically with the new IPs within 24 hours.

You can manually add the new IPs to your favorites if they haven't updated yet in 24h, or if you can't wait that long to play on our servers :classic_wink:.

 

Have fun!
