New Features:

You can decide how Elite Gamer decides your route even further! We've added two new automatic options.

  • Automatic (Elite Gamer Only) - Optimizes your connection only using Elite Gamer servers.
  • Automatic (with Direct Connection) - Will choose the most optimal route, even if it's your standard internet connection.

Give the new options a try, and let us know how they work for you!
