> [@Sir-xer21](#): > > RevOverDrive is punking all of you. Ha! I don’t troll and or try to punk. I just drop “facts” and my own personal “speculations” based on 14 years of playing the series. FOURTEEN YEARS!!! Not 2 -3 titles, But from the beginning of BF. Day One … Muppets. I might agree on other speculations of “POSSIBILITY” or the benefits of “RUMORED” changes. Yet, they are at this point “rumored and speculated” changes. Re-read my posts for authenticity and realism (community doesn’t know the difference). Yet, I still have to chuckle and then again sigh at OWNING this topic. To honestly get riled on a topic posted by a “single title” server admin on specs or hearsay is lunasee. Nothing has been posted and if you do 5 minutes of research you’ll see that Arbitrary server specs ALWAYS come late in the release data. Get a grip, Hug reality, Bet on a decade and a half of server consistency. ---

We ran tests for new patches. Had over 50 servers, 20000 registered members and a great bunch of admins (battle.no).

> [@S1ngular1ty](#): > > Having a server browser in NO WAY confirms dedicated servers, servers that can be rented, or servers that can be controlled by admins. Yup, as Battlefront and Battlefield are miles apart in demograpgic I cannot seriously see DICE cutting there own throats with no fully adminable/rentable servers. If they did that the franchise is DEAD…The fact of rumors of them gutting Admin abilities is enough for people to maybe say screw it and not bother. if they removed access to Procon/Rcon tools in BF1 that’d be really bad as well. ---

Which is exactly why no one in my group of 200 members has bothered to pre-order. If we can not control our server then we will not purchase the game. It failed Activisions MW2 and it failed EA SWBF. It will fail DICE BF1. They did the exact same thing with SWBF by waiting until the last few weeks to announce no rent-able servers. Still no one is talking about it and EA & DICE is not telling us. This means bad news for gamers. ---

I hear you bro, if BF1 pans out it must have a good comp. scene with all the proper server tools for private matching etc…I’ll pre order and if the first beta is then I’ll refund… What’s your community group called? ---

We won’t hear anything about servers until after the beta. Pretty much always been like that. ---

Well obviously you are gawd on the battlefield series and you know all o\_0 Dedicated servers will be like battlefront 😉 not exactly … there will be a server browser with custom options like REGION/CONQUEST/DEATHMATCH/PLAYER COUNT/HARDCORE/CUSTOM etc but it will not be what we are looking for. ALL game developers want to get off rented servers. Its very easy to see from the other games out there that use their own hosting that it works and will be the future 😉 strictly my opinion and hey if I am wrong then you get to rub it in my face on the internet (like that means anything LOL). ---

Get rid of the global stats. IF they get rid of rent-able servers they will say it is to ensure the integrity of the stats. Seems like people actually had more fun playing before the global stats. Back in BF1942/Desert Combat days my server as well as others had stats just for the that server. Was much fun to actually compare yourself to all the regular players that you played with on a regular basis than a world of people that you will never actually be in a round with. ---

Speculation is great in this thread. 99% of people telling us what it will be… Yet they are just Normal Forum Members. 14 years and you don’t know they dont release any info 99% of the time untill after a beta. Certainly if they would like BF1 to have a shelf life longer than battlefront. Server rentals are pretty much a must. Otherwise few months she be dead. ---

All speculation for now, my one cent worth - no community rentable servers - no sale to me. [Previous page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/dedicated-servers/103800.md?page=3)
