I just read somewhere that BFV pre-orders are 85% less than COD BO4 .lol.I wonder what percentage do Aussie/ NZ player make out of that 85% and why? You reap what you sow ?? Welcome to BFV “Empty Servers”
We’d be lucky to even be 1% of that 85%, and only about 20% of that 1% knows or cares about this issue.
Woo Hoo just got my 3 battlepacks which I guess is the compensation…
2 years of one the most stable games going around except for about 5 weeks and you guys spam a 75 page thread. 3 crates is about right lol.
Thats funny did you know that 85% of all stats are made up hahaha
WOW 3 battlepacks should have got a refund…
I think the three battle packs are part of the BF5 ‘Hype Week’.
I got those yesterday, I’m based in the UK and have never played in Aus/NZ.
Nope, I also got 3 battlepacks on launching BF1 last night so it definitely is not related to the compensation rollout.
Braddock will let you know when your compensation will be rolled out and presumably what it contains as soon as the in-game things are confirmed working on test accounts, As quoted below.
How’s the compensation going battlefielders? {direct troll} I’m seeing 20% discounts on BFV already (on a lazy search) I’d be pleased with 5% coupon for an origin loyalty base. Hey I could be eating my shoe in November
Hey folks. Shame to hear about the problems. I haven’t played BF1 since release, how’s the Oceania community? I never bought the premium but since it’s heavily discounted now I might go ahead. How many servers still get a healthy population?
For the time being pretty easy to get a game at all times - I’d say go for it
We can get up to 10 servers full most nights but only conquest and maybe rare other game modes.
BFV is released shortly you may get BF1 even cheaper as I have been hearing BFV will be a flop I hope not.
I just hope EA/Dice fix up all the issues from BF1 in BFV or they will lose a larger part of the community in the years to come.
Servers seem stable except for last night it was hard to join a server as soon as I loaded in I got kicked out, this happen for some time until I closed the game the second time it fixed itself then I could join, and it wasn’t just one server it was all of them.
I hope this helps.
I’d also add there’s quite a few new players so shouldn’t be too steap a learning curve initially
Hey all,
Just got back from Germany on Saturday evening and needed to rest after a week of 16 hours days & insanity that is gamescom.
Received an email this morning that the testing they did last week wasn’t successful, and they will be re-attempting it today at 1600 CEST.
Once I get an email from the team after that time, I’ll share what I can.
-Braddock512-
Why I am getting a feeling that this is all crap and …!!! There won’t be any refunds for RSP and there won’t be any “thank you” compensation!
Yeah cheers for that ?? maybe that’s what broke the server last night. Game reporting that it was a private/unranked server, none of the assignment guns available and everybody showing up as rank zero in game.. I was nice to have a night off from the RSC but isn’t this the same bug all the fuss has been about…?
@ShevermiN
The ranks being 0 and unlocks becoming locked is a separate issue and is related to the stats servers going down.
This particular thread is regarding Oceania / Australian region game servers.
Yeah I know I was just having a giggle because of the servers being bugged last night also and I am in Australia and I am hosting a custom HC mixedmode server…
And custom servers are hard enough to fill let alone when it gives people no points at the end of round.
Still not working for me at all. What is this about ‘compensation’?
Move along, nothing to see here.
Very curious to see what the handout ends up being. It’s probably a big ask but something that has value in the next game would be nice ie. a “thanks for sticking it out” dogtag or something. Hard to imagine the BF1 servers are gonna live for very long once the new game comes out.
Ok, I am starting to get fed up with the people that hide behind @Braddock512.
He can only give us his insight, which he is still employed by them, but there is nothing he can do about this, he still needs to be paid at the end of the week.
The Programmers failed on their test, this doesn’t surprise me either as they cannot program a simple filter without that failing (server filter).
The game will be finished soon what could they possibly give us, nothing except a dogtag or free packs, as for the server renters they should have been the first compensated which should have been handled by now.
very bad management from EA/Dice.
Management may think they are being smart about this, they do not know the Australian and Zew Zealand market, as we may be small but they still want our money.
I have seen management from the states fail in Australia as most of their business models do not work in this country.
although I have purchased BFV regardless of what happens, mark my words if you EA/Dice cannot learn from your mistakes BFV will be the last ever battlefield that I will purchase. Not that the people that need to read this, will read this.
however I am only a small customer I have only purchased 1942, 2142, Vietnam, BF2, BF3, BF4, BF1 and pre-ordered BFV, other customers have purchased more than I, but every one customer does adds to revenue.
EA is starting to have some real competition out there in these type of games. think about all the fans you upset in the way all this has been handled fan base dropping.
This may be a different issue to be disconnected, but I cannot connect.
it’s still a connection issue as far as I am concerned.
Anyways just remember that tomorrow never comes, and EA/Dice are hoping to fix tomorrow.
Anyways that’s my rant
I might go play another game,
