Australian servers are all down/constantly crashing today?

That’s nice

EA/DICE have obviously handled this very poorly but considering you have 2000hrs+ game time despite being almost universally hated in the au community because you constantly insult everyone in-game for no reason clearly shows you have an addiction to this game. Despite your dummy-spit of a post I bet my life you will be back the split second the servers are fixed.

yeah nah ey!

wow the servers are still crashing … might have to re install CoD WW2 it might have 3 lane maps, heaps of hackers, peer to peer hosting and overly simplistic run and gun game play … but at least its working

im going back to bf4 and rust, this server experience has tarnished the fun i was having (3 or 4 weeks with the game) and i can’t be bothered waiting for idiot a to tell idiot that idiot c needs to do something so idiot b can relay that to idiot b and so on.

BF1, I didnt even get a full month out of it.

uninstalled

Hey people, at the end of the day it is academic. EA either fix the servers so we can play BF1 or they don’t.

If no fix to the servers in the oceanic region happens then it is a clear signal that this market is not worth their investment in the infrastructure, as such I would be surprised if we get any servers for BF2018.

There have been plenty of posts from other countries in the past complaining about lack of regional support (Africa And South America).

Do not be surprised if we now fall into that category !

If that is the case it should be clearly spelt out now before pre-ordering BF2018 becomes available, the ACCC does not protect the consumer for digital pre-orders. So the common sense approach is DO NOT PREORDER.

It is a commercial decision by EA and so as consumers we either accept it (higher ping and lag), or move on. Oceanic players If you want you can beat your chests and wail which gets us nowhere.

Which choice will you make ?

I for one wouldn’t consider buying the new Battlefield whatever it is if this issue is not fixed and an apology given for the shocking way they have handled this. I personally think that if they don’t fix the problem people should start asking for refunds. Essentially this is the equivalent of buying a car to get you from A to B, then 6 months or even a year later the car ceasing to take you all the way to B. You would of course demand a refund as it is not fit for the purpose for which it was sold. People purchased this game to play multiplayer AND single player. Typical large company though.

EA please be aware of Australian consumer laws

Wow! … I can’t believe this still hasn’t been fixed :open_mouth:

This issue is highly annoying. Get your together.

Thought you would have figured out how to NOT run servers after the server fiascos in BF2142.

Actually tempted to reinstall BF4. For anyone who’s got BF4 already installed, can you please comment on roughly how many servers are active/populated (and if any happen to be rush)?

Cheers

So at what stage do we start asking for refunds? Been a week already and not even a slight update or inclination of it being fixed any time soon.

https://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/servers/ go to the filter window, press down and select advanced, then select oceania and whatever game style you are looking for.

I have gone back too, bf1 has knobs on it.

What about refund on rented servers?

Its a joke a week and no fix means even if/when its fixed people would have found something else to play.
RIP BF1, RIP EA.

Servers lasting less than 5mins now.

Yep still crashing…

Wow the battlefield servers are dead now, this has killed the game.
