I would say do stuff on each server during the times you usually play and see which one is best for you.
What are those tracert links? None of them work for me. Not sure if thats a bad thing or not…
ah, those are a bit more complicated
on PC, in the searchbar type CMD to open a command window… or PowerShell… either one is fine.
Then copy and paste the tracert into it and press enter and it will step through each connection in the line to get to the server and tell you how long each step took (basically).
Negative, no plans at the moment. Lost everything in Boundless due to beacon expiration. That turned me off for a very long while. I am a casual player, so might return when the local universe option comes available. Meanwhile not play boundless at the moment.
