Can you connect to US servers on T5 Multiplayer using a VPN?
-
Hello, I was just wondering if I can connect to US servers using a VPN to lower the ping. I'm from EU, so my ping is ~300 on any server right now, making it impossible to play on T5 Multiplayer for me.
If this isn't allowed, is there any other solution I can use while waiting for EU servers to pop up?

Post Mortem your ping most likely won't be lower tho, in fact the route to the server may be even longer through a vpn. Anyways lots of server use iw4madmin with the vpn blocking function enabled so you won't be able to join them with a vpn.
Idk if you're talking about ping in-game or on the serverlist, serverlist ping is inaccurate and can be safely ignored. It won't reflect the ping in-game.

Dss0 Oh okay I see, thanks for the quick and easy reply!
I was talking about the ping in-game, but I guess I'll just wait until EU servers start popping up on the serverlist.

Post Mortem there are plenty of eu servers, ignore the US country flag in the serverlist it shows that for every server no matter where it's from.

Dss0 Good to know, I'll start looking around then. Thanks again!

Hey, sorry to wake up this closed topic but I can't find any European flag in the server list, and basically, most of them are 300 + ping, is this any way that I'd be miss located by the game and i cant see another region?

FulguroSemance well like i said before, all servers show up as US atm, no matter where they are hosted. The ping on the serverlist is also higher than it would be in-game.
A couple of EU servers i know of are AWOG, RepZ and HapticRush, there's also a bunch of servers that have "EU" in their name. -

Maybe read the thread before posting?

FulguroSemance HGM also has some EU servers, and as Dss0 has said, ping on server list is inaccurate.
