Will we have admin controlled dedicated servers or will it be like Star Wars Battlefront Servers?
/Merged these 3 threads together.
If this is anything like STAR Wars, it will be a flop. I have only played 3 hours
In BF2, BC2 and BF3 trusted communities like battle.no, battlefield.no, battlefieldgotland.se and so on, had serverfiles from DICE. We ran tests for new patches. Had over 50 servers, 20000 registered members and a great bunch of admins (battle.no). With BF4 and thereafter, DICE, changed this to earn money on serverrentals…
Sad story…
From a good friend with close connects… “we will have a dedicated server browser” B)
Which should translate to dedicated servers
Same. Screw that. No Dedi No BF it will be that Simple. But i can’t see them not implementing this. It would kill the franchise for the foreseeable future
Honestly, who would’ve thought we would be speculating over dedicated servers/ server browser in 2016? 2 services that have been in gaming since as early as I can remember. How times have changed?
It was confirmed a few minutes ago that there will be a server browser.
I’m praying that it won’t be another Star Wars: Battlefront in this regard (which didn’t even have a server browser). I’d love to run my own servers and form a small community around those servers and this already awesome game!
Server Browser confirmed
Will Battlefield 1 have dedicated servers? If it doesn’t have dedicated servers the game will die fast (on Pc). It will be as much of a ghost town on Pc as Star Wars Battlefront is. It’s not Battlefield without the dedicated servers.
/Threads merged.
Any idea when we will start getting information about whats involved in BF1? e.g.
Commander? real artillery or not, female characters, 5 or 6 man squads, etc. etc. you know the basic questions. 
Having a server browser is nice. But what about admin run servers? They still haven’t commented on that probably for a good reason.
Im sure they will have rented servers as if not They will lose a lot of clientele
Thank you 
Can’t wait until it gets released!
Having a server browser in NO WAY confirms dedicated servers, servers that can be rented, or servers that can be controlled by admins.
^ This. Dedicated/Rented servers are yet to be officially confirmed.
+1
So far what we have is 50% of the answer to the whole question. The whole question is “will individuals be able to rent and service 68(ish) slot servers via RSPs that players can search for and join via the server browser.”
We’ve not seen that answer.
I liked servers in battlefront for 1 great reason there was no votekicking and banning by badmins if there was server browser like battlelog in swbf3 it would be great.
Dont get me wrong i love Jah, WBKS, MXD servers with good and fair admins but many other servers are there just to leech money from you if you dont want to be banned/kicked or just for owners stats boosting.
There is even servers if you pay monthly you can hack as much as you like and you cant be votekicked or votebanned or admins kick you whenever you have good game just to pay monthly fee to be whitelisted and they suggest you to do that if you wanna continue to play on they servers and that is just wrong.
If somehow dice/ea can give only reputable server owners from last battlefield games like these i mentioned above ability to rent public servers that would be great or to have every mod, every map, 64 player servers owned and managed by ea/dice as long as game is alive so people who pay for game have place to play…
