3FL and Adam Internet’s GamingSA merge
wob - Friday, November 20, 2009
It was only a year ago that iiNet Games joined forces with 3FL and from there we’ve seen an increase in players online from 200 to our current record of 1780. Pretty impressive stuff if you ask me.
Coming of out this deal with Adam Internet, the GamingSA servers will be moved onto 3FL hardware graciously provided by Adam Internet in their South Australian datacentres. From here we’ll be replicating their current game server offering and expanding it from day 1.
Over the weekend you can expect to see the first new 3FL servers start to come online. Initially we’ll add some local Team Fortress 2 and Left 4 Dead 2 servers and then begin the process of migrating the GamingSA servers onto the new (very powerful) hardware.
What does this mean for GamingSA gamers?
The GamingSA servers you know and love will become 3FL servers in the near future. Key differences you will notice are:
- Servers will be named 3FL
- Servers will be running on very powerful brand new hardware
Doesn’t sound too bad to me. Map cycles, configurations, mods etc will all be maintained and we’re extending an invitation to all GamingSA game admins to come on over to 3FL to continue.
Also please note: We’ll also be merging the userbases of the 3FL and GamingSA forums, so there is no need to sign up over here on 3FL. We’ll bring your account over for you with your post count.
What does this mean for current 3FL gamers?
Freezone access to new servers in SA for a variety of games all with established communities and admins. GamingSA actually run servers for quite a few games we don’t even have (Gmod.. woo! giant magenta phallus rockets for everyone!
Look forward to seeing you all on the servers.
