Re: BF4 Ranked Setup and startup.txt file

These issues could have been completely avoided by simply consulting with the community, perhaps EA could have created a server operator and admin council for input. I know the Game Service Providers (like NFO) attempt to voice concerns, but there doesn't appear to be a voice at the corporate table....

Re: BF4 Ranked Setup and startup.txt file

Edge: EA really needs to reconsider what they've done and fix it. I saw another thread where a user indicated the PB kick/ban still worked. I agree with you, they are likely working hard to shut it down, and I'm very concerned about the change in direction. There is no doubt this will contribute to ...

Re: BF4 Ranked Setup and startup.txt file

With Procon, you can do all the admin stuff. kick, ban, say, etc. It just issues pb commands through the rcon. This is BF4, so it doesn't apply if your server is setup using an "Official Setup". With an Official Setup, you can't kill, kick, ban, move players around, make for members to jo...

Re: BF4 Ranked Setup and startup.txt file

Thanks Major. Procon didn't work, the pre-release code is still being tweaked so the config has errors. The problem appears to be Official Servers, vs Ranked Servers. For Official Servers, there is no admin/owner control, and therefore no point paying for a rented server. The Ranked Server lets us g...

BF4 Ranked Setup and startup.txt file

Need some guidance and insight. There appear to be some servers configured the way we want ours, but we can't figure out the settings. We don't want Official Settings. Can't see the point of paying EA for a server we have absolutely little to no control over. We want to run a server that is ranked, ...

Re: Level loading repeatedly on empty server.

I've been disabling plugins to check, and none seem to have an effect on it. I don't see this as an issue, was just curious about what it might be because it's never really done it before. It may have been introduced recently and I never noticed. With 23 patches in 7 months, nothing would surprise m...

Re: Level loading repeatedly on empty server.

We're still running the same 5 plugins as before moving the server, and the newest patch. I also noticed it's not consistently doing this. It appears to be an issue between midnight and 4AM, it's just odd. Adaptive Server Size (Running since January) Adaptive Ticket Count (January) Chat Filter BF3 (...

Level loading repeatedly on empty server.

Our server is empty (as usual, but that's whole other story), but I noticed this new symptom recently since moving the server from NYC to Chicago and after the latest patch. The Procon console shows once or twice per minute that it's loading the level (same map). Example: 05/21/2012 23:37:04 LevelLo...

Re: Battlelog Not Showing Servers - Again!

I'm relieved we're not alone, but I'm getting so disappointed and frustrated with this whole browser thing. We seed the server with 4 to 6 players or more and nobody can find it. It's not found in the listings for hours, only if someone has it marked as a favorite. I don't know what EA is doing, but...

Re: R20 Maplist changes

Follow up post:

No errors in the NFO Console, but in Procon, I only see Oman and Caspian. Perhaps this is a Procon issue and an update will be needed so that all my maps will show up in Procon?

R20 Maplist changes

I noted the message from NFO regarding some changes to the maplist included with the new patch. So I'm trying to use the NFO Console to fix our maplist. Our original maplist only produces 2 maps (Oman and Caspian) from the list. What am I missing? XP1_002 ConquestLarge0 2 MP_007 ConquestLarge0 2 XP1...

LOL, yes, absolutely. Conquest Assault is too much like Rush with Flags rather than MCOMS. I'm assuming EA has no plans for it, so we'll have to live with it as is.

Re: Karkand is Conquest Assault only?

Edge, thanks a million for the follow up, you guys are fantasic.

I'm a little disappointed EA didn't provide us with a traditional Conquest mode for the other 3 maps, but c'est la vie, we'll deal with it as is. Maybe Highway Tampa is under development. :D

Re: Karkand is Conquest Assault only?

I actually really like it because it motivates players to play the objectives and not just sit back and camp. I agree with you, but it's still an issue. Ideally, we could have a standard Conquest version. As server operators, we all know that you can only do so much to control the gameplay. Some fe...
