So, myself, Mk1 and Solemn have, as we are enjoying the game so much recently, clubbed together and purchased a Bad Company 2 server from Multiplay between us.
It's a 32 slot server, and although ordinarily it can only be in Conquest OR Rush mode due to restrictions imposed on the GSP's by EA, Mk1 has some software which he runs when he is online that allows us to override that if we so wish.
The server is currently called:
We do run all (most) maps on there, but admins have the power to switch the map if they wish, I believe.
We are happy to make THN members who play BC2 regularly and who also wear the 'THN' tag in-game(1) admins of the server, (though there will still be certain operations that only server contributors have access to).
There is a smegload of info, commands, maplist information, and other such things that you will find in this thread here: http://games.thehavennet.org.uk/showthread.php?p=116752 - (if you don't have access to it, see note (2) as it's in the Battlefield social group for a bit more privacy).
The other thing that we can do, and the full list of games is in the above-linked thread, is switch the server to be setup for other games.
(1): To make sure you keep your THN tag in-game, DO NOT USE the Auto-Login function. For whatever reason, this removes your tag. On the soldier select screen, ensure that your tag is set to "THN" (without the quotes) - the game will add square brackets [] around it automatically in-game
(2): To join the "Battlefield" social group, select "Community->Social Groups" on the top control bar for the forums. Then, locate in the list on the right hand side the "Battlefield Series" group. Select it, then at the bottom of the page on a blue bar will be a "Join Group" option. Select that, and you should be added to it automatically - the above link should then work.
