@Braddock512 I think the community deserves some sort of update now. Telling us you’re close, that EA has learnt from this and that communication will be better has turned out to be a false statement. Looks like it might be time to push this back out to the relevant media outlets again like Kotaku and Pretty Good Gaming. ---

I am curious to know what happened to the compensation package which Braddock mentioned nearly 3 weeks ago now. Surely things should be resolved enough regarding the Oceania issue to have been finalised by now. ---

[comment removed - Baiting/Flaming ~LG For the record I wasn’t Baiting I was just stating an observation and a saying related to that… and when it is 3 weeks give or take a day or two between post from Braddock that is what the feeling is that compo package is a non existent thing. ---

Surely things should be resolved enough regarding the Oceania issue to have been finalised by now. You’re not the only one watching this thread. None of my mates or myself have pre-ordered BF5 which is a first considering we were once all die hard fans. What ever faith we had left in the franchise is gone, pretty disappointing. ---

Hey Stealthy, You’ve had your time of being abusive and now that time is over. If you can’t follow the rules, you won’t be able to post - full stop. We’re here to take feedback and, at times, be the sounding board for your frustration. At _no point_ are we here to take abuse, insults, or harassment. * * * Everyone else in the Australian region affected by the issue of being kicked from servers that started on April 1 to May 8th (and we have posted that the primary issue this thread started about was confirmed by our teams and partners to be resolved on May 8th. You’ll have to look a few pages back) : We’ve locked the plan to provide a thanks to those that have stayed with us during the connectivity issues affecting our PC Australian servers for Battlefield 1 from April 1 to May 8th. I’m working with our teams to roll out the “thank you” as soon as possible, potentially by the end of next week. (We’ll have an announcement on the roll-out date next week.) This will include a “thanks” to our RSP Admins who have had servers during this period. As mentioned in other threads, we did keep discussing with the community the status of the issue with regular updates until we had deemed the issue resolved. When we got the all-clear from the teams, I posted in this thread. Once I have confirmed the rollout date of the “thank you” and posted the details, this thread will be closed. Any further issues should be addressed by submitting bug or technical issues on Answers HQ (the link is the Bugs or Technical sections in the Battlefield 1 forum section list). RE: EoR disconnections - I have not received an update and will be chasing that down. It has been reported to DICE via our Weekly Reports and I’ll find out more details as soon as possible. -Braddock512- ---

I saw this response and honestly was a little aghast about how blunt it was. I thought about it and I can still say I think it’s a little bit meh. @Braddock512 I realise @AK_Stealthy_A may have crossed a line for the forum rules but the moderators and your responses seem to lack any sort of empathy. Look at the time gap in your response and look at your previous statements on improved communications. This an absolute debacle at this point and I don’t think your response displays anything but a lack of understanding for the frustrations felt by some here. You choose to play your role the way you want to play it but maybe separate comms. to in regards to forum rule breakage and the update on the issue. I think it’s made people feel like they are being ignored and or berated. Overall i think the Aus BF community have been pretty patient and have slogged this out for quite some time including having the thread effectively trolled by people from regions not effected by the issue without a lot of support from yourself or moderators.

Check bugtracker. Well before any issue on this thread. I also knew back then that it was world wide. I tested it by joining other servers in Asia and the same problem occurs back in February. [https://www.bftracker.com/view.php?id=5134](https://www.bftracker.com/view.php?id=5134) Saying this. I noticed this bug in early December 2017 but it didn’t occur as much as it is now. let’s say once a week maybe once a fortnight. Then it became worse in February so i reported the the issue via the correct place. Ticket status was changed about a week in and then for about 3 months not a sole commented from EA about progress nothing just left it in limbo until i cracked the sad’s in this thread a few pages back then i got a response. Sure i admit it may have been off topic as such but with other recent issues and the EOR issue becoming far worse than first reported and lack of communication about the issue i decided to bring it up here. > [@](#): > > Like the current EoR black screen issue (all regions, all platforms), nothing to do with this, it’s an issue introduced during the last patch and the community has been told it’s being worked on… That comment is incorrect. ---

> [@sabootheshaman](#): > > I realise @AK_Stealthy_A may have crossed a line for the forum rules but the moderators and your responses seem to lack any sort of empathy. Our duty as volunteer moderators ( those of us with blue nametags ) is to ensure the forum guidelines are upheld. We do try to help where possible, But in some instances ( such as this particular issue ) we are unable to help in any way, shape or form. However, Please note that your post above that I have quoted, Is Discussion Of Moderation, Which also I may add is a forum rule violation. You can check the Forum Guidelines Here, So please ensure you do not violate them. Secondly, We are not support staff, So these sorts of technical issues are beyond our reach to be able to help you to a reasonable conclusion. > [@sabootheshaman](#): > > Overall i think the Aus BF community have been pretty patient and have slogged this out for quite some time I agree, The Australian and Oceanic players have been pretty patient, Which we definitely Appreciate. However, Frustration is not a get out of Jail free card for any violations that arise during the heated posts that yourself, Or others make. We get that you guys are frustrated and you have every right to be, How you portray that frustration is, Ultimately, Up to you. It can either be productive and constructive ( e.g reasonable and civil ), Or it can be flaming, baiting, and abuse ( or otherwise violating the rules ). One leads to a healthy discussion where feedback can be discussed and everybody is relatively happy with the outcome, The other leads to an infraction ( and possible suspension ) and a particularly unhappy user. I know which I would pick. ---

Hey @Braddock512 I thought I might just point out some of my frustrations just in case you are not aware of why I am so frustrated. Some of these may appear to be obvious, but we cannot assume anything these days, as there is no such thing as common sense. - Being disconnected to the server. (this is obvious (Detective Stealthy)). - Playing mid game and being disconnected. bammm any points or progress you were working on at the time is now lost. (This being linked to Dogtags, Medals and CodeX) - A lengthy time trying to join your favourite server or any server for that matter which has players in it, to find out that the only reason why you were able to join the server is that players on the losing side left before the game ended, and you get on and bam your disconnected, which means now you need to find another server and doing it all over again now mind you 64 other players are doing the same thing. - Finally got to play a whole map without being disconnected from the server during the game, Bammmm EoR disconnect from the server lost any advancement on anything i was working on (This being linked to Dogtags, Medals and CodeX). - Playing awesome made a Dogtag and a Medal in that round awesome, but wait for it Bammmmm EoR disconnect (which means I need to redo them). - Reading this thread on the forum you stated on the May 21, 2018 8:21AM " I’m taking the lead on communicating this issue" also quoting you will be giving us weekly updates, this also should entail “Nothing further to report this week and also answering some Customers I.E. “US” have questions. but may I go back to you stating " I’m taking the lead on communicating this issue” by you wanting to take the lead to me is dealing with us a little more than what you are? - also Braddock you stated that you would give us weekly updates, which you haven’t technically in the last month. you also stated because of this post this is going to change the way Dice communicate with “US” the Customer. - Mind you still I am working on finishing the last few Dogtags, Medals & Codex, and wouldn’t you know it Bammm, I got myself another EoR Disconnect. - GRRRR ARRRRRRRR (hair pulling) - This then leads to A post on the forum Mind you a lot of disconnection have gone on before posting, and might I add most posts are recent. (Obvious) The above may not seem like a reason to be frustrating to you, but it is to me. (Obvious). Now I am NOT, and I repeat NOT commenting on Moderators as I know as they are here purely to keep the forums in order which I fully appreciate that, plus the fact they do this for free. Hats off to you guys. Plus the fact they have also said they cannot do anything about it. (mind you one Moderator stands out perfectly and very professionally in my opinion If any Dice Employee would like to know who just PM me). I have been directing all this to you why, well because you put your hand up to take the lead, plus you wanted feedback from us, but in the last month you have not communicated with us on this thread with any insight or feedback on the issue at hand. Let me ask you a question if you go into the store and you purchase something, and something is wrong with it you go back the next day, sometimes the employee cannot help you, you need to communicate with the store manager. And if the store manager does nothing about it what would you do? > [@sabootheshaman](#): > > I saw this response and honestly was a little aghast about how blunt it was.

I at no point mentioned any other issue not related to the OP. Absolutely clear, and you’re correct, I was just commenting on the part I quoted about the AUS community (as an out of region player), as I’ve seen there’s some confusion with some players about current and past issues, which are not related, but I understand how bothersome it can be, specially when the current issues give the same results, making it look as if the last issue was not resolved… I hope the compensation comes fairly swiftly… [Previous page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/australian-servers-are-all-down-constantly-crashing-today/103376.md?page=22) [Next page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/australian-servers-are-all-down-constantly-crashing-today/103376.md?page=24)
