Over the last few days, I have noticed the map vote comes up and the the map gets picked and then a map comes up that was not even in the vote is on. Also, over half the full server gets kicked out. WTF? Any server admins having this issue? ---

My server is always empty (lol) but I noticed last night that it changed to Fao. Not sure if a round actually got going on the start map and then Fao came up in the vote. Whats weird is that Fao isn’t in the map rotation. This morning the server was back on the start map. ---

Yeah I guess this is one of those better player experiences the employees of DICE keep talking about. 64 players and map change and the player count changes to 23 players. Server side of things, RSP has to be the worst thing ever for gamers. not a huge fan. I would much rather spend 3 times the money on 3rd party server providers than this crap. This game is 11.5 months old and it’s still bad. Every few months someone gets on here and says DICE is working on it. I say it is total BS. THis proves they are not working on anything. The more crap the add, the worse the game and servers get. DICE needs to stop adding things and fix what is already here. ---

Well someone had to make it possible for servers to swap location even between maps as it happens a lot in EU, NL server ( good ) swaps to Ireland ( Horrible ) so they do work on something that can save em money i guess. ---

there is a special topic on it made by a dev he wants help / info so they can fix it [https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield\_live/comments/73tre6/battlefield\_1\_improvement\_to\_server/](https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield_live/comments/73tre6/battlefield_1_improvement_to_server/) and look here also [https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield\_live/comments/73a3mm/server\_crashing\_and\_changing\_location\_from\_nl\_to/](https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield_live/comments/73a3mm/server_crashing_and_changing_location_from_nl_to/) ---

Queue doesn’t work anymore since the patch and my server also goes to another map most of the time then the one who won the voting or even came up in the voting. It just goes to a whole other map from the 9 maps I’ve put in the mapcycle. ---

Yeah its crazy. Good news though. Swbf2 sales are below expectations. Disney warned ea is sales are not better they will lose the franchise. So after Nov 17, dice will have 1 game less to worry about ---

Maybe it will encourage them to focus on creating a blockbuster game that draws in millions. ---

Does more of you have a rented server and the problem that is goes to the wrong map? I saw a few posts about this on the forum. I think it happened for our server it happened after the October update. The few days before it was fine. And I wonder if it also happens on the DICE official servers… our rented servers are 3rd party… Can you let me know? Then I will contact EA at Monday, like I did last monday, I chatted with an Advisor. I want to hear him explain this bug to me and let’s see what they tell us, crap or if he tells they’'re working on a solution and acknoledge the bug exists. I will mention my own server and other rented servers in general as well when I know if many of you also have this problem. ---

This is getting incredible annoying, votes map → loads different maps + kicks most players → reloads same map for reasons + starts that map almost instantly. ---

DICE should come up with a Community Test Environment and test these patches to make sure they are bug free before they release them. Oh wait they do have CTE. Like what I have said before, DICE does not listen to the community and they seem to not know what they are doing. The latest DLC and patch afterwards is proof of that. Not being negative, just stating obvious facts. ---

Yes, servers are switching IP, causing people to be kicked and server loading twice different map than was voted (also some ppl are experiencing slow motion after that). I’m reporting those IP changes to DICE in daily basis from our server. Sometimes it happens even 9 times a day, sometimes only 2-3 times. Btw: out of this, but pls check my RSP feature request thread: [https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield\_live/comments/77l27n/rspnext\_steps\_that\_should\_be\_there\_by/](https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield_live/comments/77l27n/rspnext_steps_that_should_be_there_by/) ---

DICE is so over their heads with RSP it’s not even fun to play anymore. Check my stats for proof of that. DICE is showing pure incompetence for the last several years. Many devs have given up and left the company and several have started their own companies. The future of battlefield is not looking good. Ghost Recon wildlands PvP is awesome though. It works and is a lot of fun. Best of all no cheaters and the servers work.
