BF3 and BF4 did not launch with RSP because it never had RSP. You could go to select Game Server Providers and rent them. RSP did not start until BF1. All yo could do was name your server for the first 6 months. As far as “fake Numbers” go, admins do not have any thing to do with the player count numbers. Everyone on the internet can go to bf4stats and see how many people are playing the game. This is obviously posted by some new person that has no idea of previous Battlefield games.
Let it go man. Just, let it go.
It costs too much, isn’t it like 40€/$ pr month?
Not much happening here still !
ragnarok013 I cant speak on behalf of console gamers, But on PC our community migrated from our BF2 server to BFBC2 within a month of release, then to BF3 within a few days of release ( had to find a new host as DICE pulled the license from smaller game server providers for BF3 ). BF4 we had our server set up the day before release, then came BF1 the first BF game not to have a third party server system in place and took months to set up a limited RSP system.
The road ahead for communities based on the Battlefield series is quite bleak.
I still think the RSP will happen for BFV. Its just the lack of feedback or info from ea/dice for the past 3 to 4 months which is the most concerning thing. Some info about the RSP would be good. Basically letting the community know what is going to happen and not leaving everyone in the dark and to be constantly guessing.
Communication is NOT their strong point. EA keeps stating they will improved it SOON™
Try the last 2 years with lack of communications on RSP from EA and DICE All they have communicated to everyone is EA does not want RSP.
Lack of information worries but I still hope RSP will come. If not a lot of clans/communities who wants to rent a server for BFV and were trusting it will come will stop support for BF games.
I’ll play on them when they are finally here but I no longer have any respect for the brand and I can’t wait to get my own back when they try and launch another game, really looking forward to that time.

People aren’t as stupid as you like to think ‘Mr Company Man.’
To late. Any one who reads and played BF1 knew the EA was not got to let DICE launch BFV with RSP. EA does not want RSP.
With sales down over 50% compared to BF1 and player count low, yeah maybe they will look into it.
My guess, is that EA figured by disallowing rental servers, cheaters, racists, and disrespectful players will run free and act as a turn off to most players, thereby shortening the lifespan of the current title.
Congratulations, EA. You’re doing a great job of destroying a once great series.
Right now this game is in a need for rental servers.
DICE cant handle it. Give us the control.
Keep this chat going as there is already a lot of noise being made about this subject , and this can only help our cause , so keep it positive and stay on subject , fingers crossed we get our own servers as it will make the game so enjoyable for some many people, and please give us the tools to create the games as we and our communities want them to be
EA decides to remove a staple FPS feature and then proceeds to ignore our inquiries into whether or not it will be brought back.
Who would want to pay for ANY service provided by such a company?
Not us, not any more!!!
I made a lot of noise, put in a massive effort and I’m completely ignored and so is the entire vet hardcore crew.

I am seriously completely over these greedy people. Other new FPS are looking amazing atm.
I completely share that sentiment.
I’m done giving EA second chances and will not pay for any of their products in the future. Even if they’re 99% off.
Would appreciate it if you’d named a few of those amazing looking FPSs…
If you’re a hardcore enthusiast, be sure to try Insurgency Sandstorm. I played it on launch day for the first time, and immediately uninstalled the BFV abortion. Been playing Sandstorm a couple hours a day now, and couldn’t be having more fun.
People are looking at Insurgency Sandstorm, it looks excellent and the bullets to kill looks very realistic (hardcore). It’s more slow paced as they added a cool element to respawning which makes your life more valuable (certainly no run and gun). Also when you consider that game is made by an indie developer and this is a AAA title, well I’ll let you decide how you feel about that.

We are totally not allowed to talk about this here, saw an admin telling somebody they were being political by posting it and closed a thread lol.

Be sure to check it out, and thanks for the support
