Sorry dood but having been back playing BF4 due to BF1 server issues I can say, with authority as a lvl 140 with 2000 hours in BF4. The old war horse BF4 is not playable over and over again. It was a great game but she’s no BF1.

Yes she still has players but what can you do, people are still buying vinyl records. The 300 odd player a night here in Oceania that still populate the servers really need to move on. 50% of the matches are lockers or metro and that’s pretty sad. They still complain about FLIR/IR most of the servers have explosive restrictions and a bunch or crazy admins that are forever team balancing and spamming the chat. It’s not fun it’s kind of sad.

The sky is blue. Thanks for telling us. We as a community could probably provide you more information than both internal and external teams.

If the payment team for EA was down for 2 nearly 3 weeks do you think this issue would have been sorted? I know it would have been and to challenge the potential idiotic response of they are different priorities, WE CANNOT PLAY THE GAME WE PAID FOR. After the handling of this farce good luck getting the next product off the ground in Oceania, I certainly won’t be buying it.

EA is playing us for a fool. The company or whom ever the useless company they have contracted to host the servers cannot even maintain a server with 6 PEOPLE IN IT.

I have been patient.

I have then been generous.

Now I am mad. Fix your

Hey brad, On page 22 you said the team are tracking the issue. So basically you are saying they are being attacked then correct? like trying to hunt down where it’s coming from? or am i completely wrong? Like i think by now after 2 weeks you could just be upfront with whats really going on? Not trying to be nasty either you are communicating more and that’s good but we really still don’t know whats causing it. I have my speculations that’s for sure but i’d like to hear it from the right people. Cheers

Nate

This what happens when greed takes over and player servers are not allowed. You get one point failures .

Still crashing…but on the bright side we have invented a new game!  
We now take bets on how long the server runs before crashing…current race record holder is 9mins 32 secs

This has to be the worst I’ve ever seen EA’s servers, the length of time this has been happening for now is out of control and really is not a good look for Dice and EA.

So is this the way that BF 2018 is going to be run? With servers run by EA? I am not looking forward to that at all.

Have you bothered to read through this thread? Would you like me to provide a point by point summary in dot format with every comment by an EA rep??

I just thought I would post something strange is going on with the servers I am being kicked as soon as the game is finished, it isn’t only 1 server it’s a few of them and it’s not just me being kicked.

I think this is strange as this is the 21st century.

“very soon” must have a different meaning for @Braddock512

Also I love how we got told “it’s literally changing how we handle situations like this going forward, so a great good is coming from this regarding transparency, communication, etc.”

I’ve been away on holidays for a week and am genuinely surprised this is still dragging. That compensation better be mad balls for the people paying for servers.

lol at trying to join a server with a queue only for it to be pretty much empty, then trying again in another server and after waiting a fair while being disconnected because the server disconnected at the end of the round…
