I didn’t see anything wrong with servers on consoles that had Official settings(no plugins or changes to the gameplay of any kind) receiving Quickmatch players? You could still kick/ban but that was it.
Actually QM traffic was working for BF4 for some time (with option join ranked tickbox) but they removed it for some reason. But tickbox is still there.
Now they are selling the servers and every small change you make to server makes it custom, then it’s practically impossible to fill.
If RSP server has official setup it should get QM traffic. Also I think QM should have same type of tickbox (RSP/Custom) etc. Problem is that more people use Quickmatch in BF1 than they did in BF4, because it’s “promoted” feature and server browser is not working properly. Also, it’s a bit weird that simple feature as 6p starting takes so long time…
Our clan has been waiting proper RSP a long time, some of us have been patient (I haven’t) but now the whole clan is already saying that this will never be finished therefore we can’t buy server more than for 1 day from time to time… Anyway, I don’t know why PC clans are punished this way… It just makes less people buying next Battlefield game at least with PC players. And because of the lack of proper mixed mode servers, playing CQ only server makes people bored faster.
QM did work for ranked for awhile on release, but it was eventually removed because QM traffic players were being kicked/banned for not following custom rules they didn’t know about. No explosives, no sniper etc.
The custom issue is being addressed, looked at etc by David Sirland.
Yes, QM is bjorked at the moment. Official setups should receive QM. But I don’t believe custom setups should get it unless it’s directly tied into the users filters. If it’s not we are right back to QM feeding players into a server where their settings aren’t what the player wanted.
Ranked QM should only feed a player to servers matching that players filtered criteria vs any old ranked server.
You’re quite right there @Rev0verDrive - BF1 just needs a server browser that works properly, this will fix a lot of seeding issues. For me BF1 is going to be a game I don’t bother playing until the server situation is fixed, even then I wont buy a server but it will at least get me playing again. Safe to say I will never buy another BF game until I see some damned quality in RSP. Disappointed, but I know I am fault for impulse-buying what turned out to be a cold .
Been on twitter branching out to other games, decent RSP should be standard practise for Modern online shooters imo, look at COD, player count has been dwindling ever since they removed them (at least for PC). Both of these look very promising.
I had a Rental server for BF4 on PS3, set to Official settings for atleast a year or so. It would get populated by Quickmatch and I would kick/ban people from it, all the time.
You couldn’t kick/ban from in game but I had another TV and PS3, set up next to me with an admin profile in the server player list screen. I could kick/ban with that profile, easy peezy, just like that,..It worked great!
@KPNuts74 Because insults and abuse have no place here. That’s also why your post was removed when you re-posted it. And discussion of moderation is not welcome.
So, consider this your only non-infraction warning.
You can give feedback - positive or negative - without being abusive or you won’t be posting. That goes for you too, @WarCriminal_954.
Braddock, I am a paying customer who again has wasted money renting servers not fit for purpose. I contacted EA support who told me to post here for help. I am sure you must understand mine and many others frustration with this issue and I think my tounge in cheek remarks are kind of justified.
I think all of us are disappointed about RSP and lack of clan support considering how much time they had time to fix it, but being disrespectful never helps. I think RSP is not in their priorities and RSP servers, because things like 6p server start, QM, proper RSP is still missing and many of PC players are leaving. But we have to remember we do not have too much content yet either and gamemodes are Limited By playeers, considering first DLC is coming at March, comparing BF4 had already 2 DLC released on same timetable. I have this feeling that they decided to make this BF1 for casual gamers, not for the clans/communities and they are bringing clan features very slowly. It has affected a lot our clan too, many of us are so pissed off but as I said, just behave here and do not be disrespectful… For the server side things, I still hope they fix RSP giving us Basic needed functions and 6p start for March DLC if not then I do not have too much hope for it anymore and I start to look is there any other good options for a clan game… I have been BF player since 2004 and if you look my gaming hours for each BF title, you can see I take BF gaming seriously so I hate to look other games unless I really have to.
Just remember everyone, the big changes are suppose to take place next month. Middle of next month. If it doesn’t then DLC will not be supported by the community. that will mean RSP will not get the support either. That is the precious 6 month date for the game being live. If it is not community approved then the game is done. Most games do not make it past 6 months. I am like most of you and I am trying but stay calm for at least another month. Go play BF4 until then. That is what I have been doing.
Problem is not that many people (as far as I am aware) bother purchasing the DLC individually, they either stay with the base game or get premium so that first statement is off imo. At the start of this RSP fiasco I was very optimistic but my hopes have slowly dwindled with every “update” or “News release” to the point that I no longer have hope. Its taken this long to implement what exactly? Kick/ban for server owners only, vote map, settings can be turned off/on, browser still broken, 6 player start not implemented, its a shambles. I have zero optimism that any of this will be fixed when the DLC drops, in fact they didn’t even confirm that it would.
Why don’t we get any news about RSP? All we can read is something like “we are working on the 6 players start. it will be in one of the next patches.”
When will they be ready with the RSP in a status that BF4 private servers have?
Why did they take the whole RSP into their own house if they are not able to provide the things we have with BF4 private servers?
