Announcement: New IP to be expected for PrisonBreak

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

As you are most likely aware, we are experiencing problems with our Prison Break server. Due to problems continuing with the host (as quite frankly, they are being unresponsive and generally useless) we are forced to get a new IP. With your help to get the word around, we can easily pick up where we left off just with Gametracker ranks reset and with a new IP address.

Another option we have highly considered is to get a dedicated server. The difference is we will have FULL control of this server which we don't currently have with our current host. However, the compromise is that instead of $80 for 3 months it will be around £210, in order to keep this running we would have to rely quite heavily on donations.

Thank you for your patience during this time, I know you are all itching to get back onto PB but don't worry you will in time! Watch this space as I will be keeping you updated when the new IP is available.

Thanks,

~Jamie

After long thought and with help from Proxima (thanks), we have decided to go for a dedicated server due to the sheer lack of communication with our current host. This server will cost ~£41 per month which is pretty good considering how much power we will be having on it, we will be able to prevent things such as Ddos attacks with ease instead of relying on a (rather useless) host to do it for us.

The surf server will stay as it is for now until either the payment ends or until we get enough advertisement for our dedicated server so people can transfer over. It will be alot of work to recover but with the community's help we should be back in the limelight in no time.

So, to summarize:

- More control over the server, free as a bird.

- Much easier to deal with things such as ddos attacks.

- A much better support from the host.

- We can host multiple servers (around 6+ servers on any game/service) on this one big dedicated server.
