<br>
We have a relatively succesful COD2 server and might need to move to a new<br>
server within our DataCenter - which unfortunately would mean a new IP<br>
address.<br>
<br>
Obviously, I want to avoid disrupting the flow of players to the server as<br>
much as possible. Are players 'favorites' servers that are IP-based or<br>
name-based? Anyway to deal with this? Forwarders?<br>
<br>
In the past, changing a popular servers IP was a big mistake since people <br>
had to relocate the server based on its new IP. Is thsi still a big issue?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
Luke<br>
