NO no no, everything is normal, just go to any empty server, nowhere you ahve the dlc weapons pre-round, and everywhere your class rank is 0 or 1 (the 1 that can go to 50), your normal rank that goes to 120 shoudl be normal.
Renewal can be done, just rent a 2nd server, yes thats right a 2nd server. Then call EA in your country, beleive me that telephoen of EA i would give a 9 out of 10 (they absolutely know about RSP). Then yous ay i wnat to stop the 2nd server and give all days to server 1. I rented 5 servers all 180days i called stopped 4 and let the guy on the telephone give all days to the remaining server that one is now rented till octrobre 2018 so 12months and i called then 6 months ago so at that time i rented the server for 18months from that day - yes i know 5x180 days is lonegr then that but ofcourse i hgad those 5 for motnhs - all full everyday but was too much work.
Ofcorse the server will be full when its official settings and get quick match traffic. Make your server a custom one then brag about it here being full
Yes the only way to get your server full is leaving all settings on default so the server gets filled by players using Quick Match. Every one who wants custom settings running on their server is throwing money away unless you already have a big platoon and 20 members go on the server to attract other players who use the serverbrowser and then see the server has quite some players ingame.
They removed QM last November to RSP after some YouTuber complained about it (no names here).
About extension, it should be possible to extend from UI before server expires, now we have to wait it to expire and renew or call EA support to ask them to extend…
