As many people are comparing to console, we don’t rent on console according to server size. It’s one price. And it includes 64 slots plus commanders and spectators. I’ll verify, but I believe it’s the same way.
On a lighter note, I think some of those question marks would’ve been better as periods.

I did try this but it would not go through, not sure why though.
Thanx though.
Another person on the forums mentioned this and in the end they spoke to EA chat peeps and they pushed the refund through.

Yeah which is what I ended up doing. Although through a longer route lol
Eh makes me sad though…my love for this game runs deep.
No, active players is players in the last ‘x’ hours. Peak players is highest population during the last 24 hours. Type of account has nothing at all to do with count.
From BF1stats:
PC: 101,597 (24h peak: 134,546)
you didn’t even wait for the update we’re supposed to get today?
@Braddock512 To get on track with questions being added to the master list:
. How will clans be able to pay for a server? Will they have to collect the money locally and then rent a server, or will you (EA) be able to offer each clan member a “pay individually” feature through the server hosting company(ies) you will/have contracted with. Not having these features might turn off clans from renting servers; with scammers, and frauds, etc.
. Plenty of clans would like to have a good system for paying monthly/quarterly fees, etc. Seems as if an admin needs to pay the whole fee and then collect locally with all members. Just asking, since I’m trying to figure out how clans have been doing it; how clans’ servers through 3rd party hosters had their system set up, and how EA will do it.
. PS: I believe someone brought this up earlier in this thread, or another.
I don’t know if you get this a lot, but thank you for your continuing hard work…we as gamers/admins/consumers are greatly investing monetarily and emotionally, so people are getting heated and passionate. However, just wanted to say thanks!
I think he meant that as the trial period ends for many players it would affect the 24h active player numbers. Seeing that those players can’t play anymore..
@TM-RealTommentor Thanks! I do this because I truly care about the Battlefield community and this franchise.
MINOR UPDATE:
I will be posting a few (not an exhaustive list, unfortunately) updates regarding functionality/features for Battlefield 1 RSP in the main announcement thread. No, it won’t be the answer to every question, and some of the IMPORTANT questions are still not completely locked (meaning, I don’t have an answer I can share at this time, but am going to be pushing for those answers over the weekend.)
So, to sum up:
Minor update today to the announcement thread.
POSSIBLE info update on Tuesday (this could change. Will keep you posted)
Thanks, all.
-Braddock512-
Thanks
so basicaly its “ask whatever u like, we will answer whatever we like?” why do you call it updates and not answers? for gods sake i hope its not another “you can change map and modes update”
“Gladly pay you tuesday for a hamburger today”
♫ “Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re saying …” ♫
Is there any chance to get real status’s on the list. IE “considering implementing” or “No answer yet” or “Possible if easy to implement” etc… something honest for an answer.
A time frame would be nice as well.
I don’t know what the big corporations are afraid of; but the “Gun Bench” for Hardline drove me nuts. You couldn’t even get an answer to what it was going to be. I don’t think we knew ANYTHING till the last DLC dropped; and by that time it was too late. I think it was a pretty decent implementation by the way and I’m sure most Hardline players never got to try it.
Just be honest with us if you can. I know that not everyone is going to be reasonable; but that’s what the ban hammer is for 
Let’s make Battlefield great again! … (too soon?)
Wow .. a Popeye movie reference … Good 'ol Robin Williams movie
@sectorpatrol
Isn’t it a bit misleading of EA to not say what BF 1’s server system would be like before launch? Issues like this would not have happened. Not sure about Fragnet’s policies, etc., but this server rental program should’ve been resolved months ago. I agree there.
. Update: Not sure what happened to your post, @sectorpatrol… Did you remove it?
Why would I?
Honestly EA and Dice have had enough time, when BF4 came out we could pre order servers weeks ahead of launch.
There is no reason and I mean none for them not to share the server regions with us. The game has been in development for years, I’m sure they didn’t decide 3 weeks ago..“You know let’s rather host the servers ourselves”..
The same goes for server control and server options/settings.
@Braddock512 has done an admirable job with what he’s been given, I sure as hell don’t want to be in his position so it’s not fair for me or anyone else to take it out on him. So eventually it becomes frustrating and instead of getting angry or miserable I would rather just remove the thing causing the frustration.
Yes I want to play BF1 with all my heart and soul, but I can’t be happy when I know I have done everything in my power(Custom built pc that cost me R57 000, that converts to around $4000. Blazing fast Inet (Pretty much the fastest available for ordinary people in SA) and my experience of BF1 is sub par to everyone else playing. This doesn’t even include the insane price of the game in South Africa. Standard Edition R999 ($73), Digital Deluxe edition is R1100 ($80), Ultimate edition comes in at R1899 ($138).
Oh and no I didn’t just buy the PC for BF1 but I did want BF1 as my main multiplayer FPS game for the next 12-18 Months.
God I sound like a whiny prat.
Where did the post, with the mail from EA go.
Seems like a dirty trick on EA’s part to delay Rental Server Details - else too many people may not have bought the game or applied for refund if they knew the details of the Rental Server program early.
Now it’s too late for some of the faithful who have stuck around to ask for a refund - nice one EA !
