Please explain what you think cloud services are and what you think the current iteration of dedicated server is for RSP…just curious.
It’ll probably be like BF1 “dedicated servers” without Battlelog (On the PC) and only be Match Making - Automatching.. pfft…
never used Chemical Weapons as he was a Victim of it in the Great War…
Better not be any gas masks and gas grenades and what not in BFV
I’m not paying DICE or EA to play a game they should provide Servers for. Battlefield 3 and 4 was a Nightmare with rented servers and Badmins.
Would you like to place a gentleman’s bet on whether the server questions gets answered first or whether or not joysticks on PC will be supported?
A nightmare for you.
With communuiy servers, servers for all the players, we can choice our server to play, the customisation, with or without limit snipers…
Bf1 have need limit snipers sometimes
Is there a Battlefield title without dedicated servers?
My point exactly..there seems to be an obvious answer, but for some reason it wasn’t..so then the mind wander!!
Sounds like a leading question as if you don’t think I know what cloud services are.
A dedicated server is, by definition, physical server that is purchased or rented entirely for one companies needs. So it is managed and controlled by EA and the specs of it are also controlled by them. Also when they go down they go offline (as we seen with server rebootsreboots). With cloud services, while they loose control on the servers and how they are configured, they gain the advatage of fully virtualized systems that are up and guaranteed by the provider. They are easier to manage and expand and cheaper to have in multiple locations. This would help the whole no servers in my region issues.
Titanfall 2 boasted about numerous advatages they had going to cloud services.
I don’t know where this comes from, rented servers are only way to go with Battlefield. Variety of options they gave us in BF3 and BF4, with BF1 options are more Limited because RSP is limiting choices. I would not call Battlefield as Battlefield without proper rented server options.
It’s people like you that ruin gaming for everyone else in the community. You could have simply jjoined the official servers but you actively chose not to… because you actively made a choice that could have simply been avoiding now we are on the path for all players having zero choice.
It was a leading question ;). But you know what you’re talking about which was a pleasant surprise. /Dickmode disengaged
No worries, I get it…many keyboard warriors in here claiming expertise.
While I am not in the gaming industry, the job I am in has greatly benefited from cloud computing vs dedicated servers. I really hope more industries (like gaming) takes advantage of this.
Dedicated or Cloud (virtual) does not matter to me, just want functionality we had since at least BFBC2.
For those who like Official, no one wants to take these away from you. Go play on Official and leave us alone.
I agree, we want to have the choice as bf4, bf3, bbc2…etc
I saw that video and what he is not saying is this. DICE and EA have no plans at this time for RSP or 3rd party servers. Do not expect more than what we had in BF1. My sources told me EA and DICE does not want RSP at all. Take it for what it is worth. Everything I have been told has come true to date.
Remember, in BF1, there were not supposed to be servers. Do to fan out cry, EA gave in and a month before launch, they did make the announcement of servers to launch 1 month after the game launches. Since then there was very little changes to RSP. As it is, it is a complete joke. As of right now, DICe is now focused on RSP and they are not working on RSP at this time.
If EA and DICE are not talking about it, then it is not in there.
Yeah, its sad the game is turning into COD. Now don’t get me wrong, i had some fun with COD in times past (it has its place). But nothing says awesome like Devs and Publishers telling you what maps you will play and what you wont play. That is coming for BF just like it came for COD.
Nothing more frustrating when there is a game mode of map you want to play but all you have is a play now button with zero options…That is the future you guys have to look forward to. I abstained from BF1 because of all this garbage and it sucks, and makes me honestly a little bit sad having grown up playing the BF games starting with 1942.
Last time I had a game on Titanfall 2 (within the last week) there was 1200 odd players world wide on PC … A mate and I played two rounds back to back and then spent over 10 min waiting for a third before we quit. I like Titanfall but it’s server solution is the worst, followed by Starwars Battlefront 2. And if BFV goes this way it will be dead here in Australia on PC within a month of launch.
A continuation of the current RSP with improvements is the best we can hope for.
Well be prepared! There are not going to be dedicated servers (PC anyway). Dice/EA knows this will kill BF5 just like BF1. If we were getting dedicated servers, dice/EA would be promoting it.
Add my clan 177 members and I know of other clans would join in, literally hundreds of gamers that will not buy BFV (5) if the servers are going to be like BF1 garbage.
