[.=QUACK=.Major.Pain]

Our server just dumped everyone too.
Blaze must of crashed.

[MyOdessa]

Just had another players dump from full server, second today.

[marrr]

EA is still kicking people out today.

[.=QUACK=.Major.Pain]

This game has become pure garbage today.
Everyone's game crashes every 5-15 mins.
Not server, but everyone in my clan says their games say "Battlefield 3 has stopped working"

Not even worth playing with 3-6 crashes every hour.

[MyOdessa]

3 dumps today. 64 to 0 in 1 sec. This is on top of dumps yesterday. has to be EA's retarded battlelog/Origin issues, because server did not crashed, tickets and flags remain the same as before dump. I think the only way EA will get their shit together is a lawsuit.

[IcEWoLF]

Sorry to hear about that guys.
I somewhat gave up on BF3 servers.
I still have 4 servers up, but I don't think I will do anything with em.

[MyOdessa]

I am ready to give up on mine too.

[RexKramer]

I've given up as well, will not renew sub.

2 months ago game tracker was logging stats on 15k+ BF3 servers. Now there down to Just over 10K. EA / DICE really needs to get a handle on their shit before it drops below 5k. Luckily, my server (aside from a few battlelog dumps) has been fairly stable. I'm thinking about getting another 64 person server but would like to wait it out and see if they can go a solid month without dumping every player from my current server.

Also keep in mind that we're coming off essentially a monthlong break for DICE, during which time development was not done. We certainly hope for more activity on fixes in the coming month.

[IcEWoLF]

Yeah, ea is getting a break for holidays but our monthly server rentals don't have a
monthly break.
I'll wait until things start getting better and more reliable from ea's end. Once that's done then I might reconsider resubscribing to the bf3 servers. I don't like to pay for empty servers or servers that keep mass dumping people.

[IcEWoLF]

By the way, my decision is not because of NFo, they have been great, my decision is based on EA's poor management.
These issues should not be happening 2-3 months after release...yet we still have the same crappy problems.

My servers were full for 2 weeks in a row, then crash after crash, people got tired of trying to fill up the servers on a daily basis.
It seems like each update from battlelog's ends up {Enter explicit here} us.

I hope EA gets the message when people stop subscribing and starts losing players over this.

The server count will be going down big time, especially if they can get their act together by the end of this month.

A game should be reliable, at least within a month of the release, not a full QT after release.

I think EA/Dice QA team is terrible.

[MyOdessa]

I just had two servers dump players at the same time, servers themselves did not crash. Is there something special about Dallas connection? I noticed that NFO's NY location did not crash.

[Edge100x]

There's nothing unusual about Dallas that would cause problems at it, no. All of our locations use highly reliable InterNAP bandwidth and don't experience problems with packet loss, running out of bandwidth, or anything along those lines.

We haven't seen large dumps overall today at any location (including Dallas) or on any specific machine, so your two servers may have been connected to the same faulty node within Blaze, or something along those lines. We go over the known possibilities here: http://www.nfoservers.com/forums/viewto ... =70&t=6497

[badbadrobot]

3 of our servers dumped today. Getting to be a pain in the ass for server providers. I love paying per slot for beta software on our dedicated box.

Again, it's not NFO. It's EA/DICE.
