Is rolling out EA-controlled RSPs so hard? They control the server instances, the upkeep, the game updates. They give renters rudimentary “choices” and that’s that. Doesn’t seem all that complicated.
Private servers like the old-days, running Pro-con and all that - yeah that is more complicated and requires more of a commitment on EA’s part they seem unlikely to take on.
A useless server browser is nearly the same as no browser at all^^
Sure looks like it. Oh well, on to the next thing. 
Well..in that case they shouldn’t be surprised if their sale will be less than 2018…
Like I said before in this thread. RSP and a server browser does not work well with EA’s subscription plan that they want every gamer to go to.
To me EA’s subscription service is about like a subscription to the local newspaper. Not much content and not worth the monthly premium. I guess the good news is the newspapers give you coupons.
If this is the future of EA games, I am done. I did not waste money on Battlefield 5. Give me the content I want I will buy it.
Something tells me, EA wants to move away from 64 player games altogether. Something tells me BF5 might be the last 64 player game they make. I think it will start with BFBC3. I won’t be surprised if the only way you can play it is to subscribe for it.
RSP confirmed?
If they do, I’ll think I’ll play.
This as it was in BF1 is the best so far.
If it could be rid of BF1 + BF4 = to get a more modern game with the BF1 settings.
(No monthly subscriptions, many kids do not have this option, and certainly keep 64 play modes, and of course restore RSP)
Hooah!
I think without RSP it would really kill it but like BF1 unfortunately we may have to wait longer than we like…
Thanks guys please keep the pressure on them!

This is going to be the most epic BF ever, and everything will come full circle when we get our servers.
It’s been a typical progression of more players per game as the technology advances.
.
I am totally expecting next gen to be typically 128 players, or maybe more - of course the maps would be bigger and the technology better capable, but I really think we will head that way.
.
It’s really nice to know some staff understand the importance of rentable servers.
.
Please also understand that people get more frustrated as each day passes, we need it implemented now.
Honestly, besides Hardline whatever that was, I have always experienced the new Battlefield title to be technologically superior to the previous title. This game plays better than BF4 and BF1 simply because it is more advanced. It’s not just a bit more pretty, it really is a leap forward especially from BF4.

I’m having a really great… actually I’m having an exceptional time playing this game, it’s blowing my mind.

Some of y’all need to get off the negativity train, this game really is incredible.
Yah, yah. Coming SOON™ Just like Platoons, still waiting.
have fun on the over hype train then. I will just wait for the train to pull into reality station to see it for myself.
I am curious about this RSP. Does that mean if we do RSP no one will find our server like in BF1? I question everything the EA and DICE does.
You can’t blame anyone here for being negative, especially since EA has disallowed rentable servers.
It appears EA has condoned cheating, racism, abusive and malicious players. These are reasons enough for most of us to be negative.
Go ahead and enjoy the cesspool that’s in BF V. I won’t waste my hard earned money on it.
This thread is about the lack of Rentable servers, that should be part of the BF experience since the launch and we have been waiting info about it. Now we are forced to play in Official servers and I have encountered a lot of hatetalk and some cheaters, which should not be part of the BF experience. Community has not been listened ( like with this new TTK change they did without listening community). A lot of guys in our clan/community has BFV with Origin Premier (like me), and we have lost a few members already because of the lack of RSP they stop renewing it and didnt buy the game instead. Also lack of maps and contents (and new map didn’t even come with other modes than CQ and these TTK changes does not help with that at all).
I so agree that we need privately rented servers, i’m a casual player, i don’t have time to sit in my mother’s basement and rank up all day, i am trying to get into BFV (I played since BF 1942) but it’s full of either cheaters or leets, it’s no fun at all, we need private or noob servers so normal working people can enjoy playing from time to time. This is becoming Counterstrike
IF and at this point that’s a big IF, we get RSP. Then it better not be Beta like in BF1. I’m sick and tired of this approach and personally I do not expect RSP at all anymore or when it’ll be there to be with even less features than BF1 and that was already way below the minimum.
Considering that EA didn’t invest a lot into their BF1 RSP, not sure why anyone would expect them to do anything differently with it for BF5. If EA was committed to rolling out a robust RSP, they would have had it ready when the game launched and/or would be getting updates and more details about their plans.
And some, maybe most, of the communities would be coming back.
