Small addition: A few servers are running 227f ( to test for stability, compatibility and other issues). If you want to join such a server you can only use Unreal Gold or 225 at the moment. When 227f is released you can also join these servers with 227.

Good point as I tried to join HLK's 227f server with 227e and it gives a gpf.

Hah, it should be a little more polite :D Like, it could say "you need an older version of unreal to play on this server." :)

So, 227f servers are now, and always will be, available to 227e only?

227f can only connect to 227f, 225, 226b{gold} and 224 servers
227e is the same except replace F with E.. and so on with D and C..

We don't backwards conform to previous versions for the same reason why 226b and 226f don't work..

Though it DOES work, it will just create a much higher possibility of something breaking
