Hope there won’t be noob admin kick me off when I’m in 70 kill streak with my beloved Blenheim MKI
“Private Games will grant you the ability to create your own Battlefield V server, directly from within the main menu, or through a browser via a new web service that we’re creating.”
I don’t really understand what is meant by “web service”. Does this mean that there will be a new ‘Battlelog’ which incorporates private server management or is it only a webpage to manage private servers?
“The servers you create will be located at the closet ping site to you and will be placed within our own server infrastructure.”
Will the rented servers be instances of the game on servers in the current data centre locations? What will the server locations be? Will UK players be able to rent servers located in the UK?
Will people be able choose the server host from which they rent servers and is this ever coming back?
This news is a step in the right direction but people will inevitably compare the quality of this new rented server arrangement with what they had in BF2, BF3 and other Battlefield games.
Replying to @DANNYonPC @Battlefield and
Yeah. Or they can be set to unranked (password protected).

So it seems password is for private unranked kinda like scrimmages or clan matches. Seems good now. So public and no password for ranked. Just curious the difference between free and not free versions. Also can we change the playlist while not leaving the server? Thats was a pain on BF3. I always had to be the one to leave the match to change it. Then server fill up and i’d have to kick someone so I could rejoin it. Then I get hate mail cause I kicked somebody.
'The servers that you create will remain online while there are people playing on it. If no one is active on the server, it goes away. ’
Everything sounds good except this part.
Agree, hard to rebuild a Community if the server disappears every night.
Will take a wait and see position on this:
“As we drive to improve communication and transparency – something our Community Development Initiative is founded on”
as track record is not too good.
But GOOD news.
Will the matchmaking put me in custom servers? I don’t want to get in a custom server 20v20 with a lot of things disabled.
If that’s the case, at least add filters to the matchmaking.
Amazing news. Detailed server options too!
my guess is you pay to keep your server up 24/7 or to be part of quickmatch etc. 
it is nice you can create your own free server though.
But it all seems too late. I mean by the time this launches and isn’t buggy and it works it will be 2020 and we’ll be a few months from hearing about the BF6/BC3 Alpha.
this is the end of the plane and tank 
It mentions your playlist and server house rules still can be saved on that website or however this works though.
Yeah… I won’t be using those servers ever. Allowing every noob in the game to have tools to abuse is a terrible idea, I can only imagine how many badmins will be born. At least a pay wall kept many of the children away.
Please add a tick box to the server browser to hide private games and don’t dump players into it from quick match.
While many cheer, I dread the return of bad admins and 24/7 one map wonders.
Private will be password for clan matches and scrimmages and be unranked.
Unranked won’t work and clans… There isn’t many of those kicking around anymore at least on ps4. I think that ship has sailed/sunk tbh.
Yeah no clan support at all other then a tag. Even though I already seen others wearing my same clan tag as well and not in my clan. I wished we had something here on battle log to have co-leaders and what not.
Clan Tag theft used to be a real pain in the backside on PS3 lol but there was a whole load more players back then. I miss custom emblems for that reason.
Well my clan tag is kinda common as in BEER.
Can we get map editor as well pls
Extremely unlikely
