Guys with high pings is because of Peering issues between Internet Solutions and EA Data Centre. I have already sent messages.

Yup! ridiculous! Thanks for the Servers EA but can we have more please? 2x CQ is not enough!?! And now we can’t even quick play because it just gives matchmaking errors 😕 Full servers the cause I guess, and the game doens’t switch to Europe when no Africa servers available ☹

Not sure what the hell is happening, 90 percent of the people in the dubai server have pings ranging from 150- 300ms, is it bad routing from the isp’s side, but then almost everyone has high ping, maybe its just network infracstructure in the middle east. EA plz

wow bud - show some patience and gratitude man. They also need to see what demand is like before rolling out what they feel is adequate. No point in having 7 CQ servers and only two or three fill and rest remain empty. My experience on PS4 is nowhere near your wait - we also only have the two or three servers and wait is no longer than 5 to 10 mins

Its comments like this that let big cooperate AAA title get away with making second class games…im sorry i buy a game to play it not wait 4 months for updates for a fixed game or any form of playable multiplayer.

next time you go buy a new car they will give you parts of the car after a couple of months… this is exactly whats happening with half made games. just finish the game and actually give us a working game from start to end

Wow you obviously don’t comprehend the English language so well. At no point did I condone a unfinished game being published. I told you to take a chill pill as you seemed to come across as quite abrasive and rather condescending. As for playable MP there has never been a problem for us playing on 180ms, nowhere near perfect but playable nonetheless, and hence myself being quite grateful that we are afforded servers locally…you’re just a typical South African that feels entitled and feels they have the right to complain about everything. Why did you buy the game knowing there was no local servers? As in your example I’d at least test drive the vehicle first and do my research about the vehicle being bought prior to buying. Now get off your high horse

Just me? and @Braddock512

1. So we South Africa where given 2xservers for each game mode

2. Out of the 10 servers 1 war pigeons and 1 Domination server you cant join alway 0/24 (so means we have 8 Servers)

3. All the extra “Custom” servers i cant join either

4. So out of the 8 Servers all are full with ques as seen below.

5. Is there a plan to add more servers? as you can see we need them (Maybe 4 of each mode)

6. When is the rent server going to be available in SA?
