Egypt/Turkey license

tsip

Hey, I just checked the official Smilegate page and saw that Z8games has the license for Egypt and Turkey. As I remember these regions were under no license. What has changed now? Are there plans for a new server or a new CF version for these regions? And if yes, when? Any official answer would be appreciated.

They'll announce it eventually if that is their plan. Though it's possible that this might explain the constant crashing issue that Egyptians have been having recently. It could be that they've begun the process of having ISPs/Nodes disabling access from Egypt to CF:NA/UK servers in order to push Egyptians not to make new accounts here so that when a CF:Egypt opens they will go there and not back to here, thus populating their new version. I believe this is the same case with other areas that have their own version now...they've been blocked from making new accounts here but if they HAD an account here from before the blocks went into effect they could still get on.

IF they do in fact have the license and have plans for a CF:Egypt...then I believe it'll make a lot of people happy.

As mentioned countless times before, we do not currently have any plans for a new server. The issues being experienced by people mainly in Egypt are not a result of blocked access from our side. If we ever plan to have a new server or block access, we will announce that ahead of time rather than leave a portion of our playerbase wondering, confused, and otherwise offended. No plans have changed since this was last asked.
