Tell me about it ... 3 full servers dumped twice today ... 160 players gone each time ... this is freaking horrible !!!

The problem with Blaze tonight caused something like half our servers to dump all their players a little after 6pm PDT.

From the looks of it, this was due to another issue with the provider which hosts Blaze. They were also the culprit for the total Blaze outage last night.

[Dr.Tek]

Ours were still dumping until 6-7AM EDT.

It's been a rough week in terms of server downtime, multiple updates, InterNAP maintenance, Blaze issues, ect.

In the weeks previous all was good and the servers would stay up for a week at a time, I look forward to this again next week... Server Gods willing

[TimSad]

Is Blaze crapping out again? I got my server full only to come back shortly after and find it empty once again...

[TimSad]

Got a new server full only to have all the players dumped about not even 6 hours later. Are they actually aware of how many times there are Blaze disconnects like this? They need to tell us that they are aware and trying to find solutions cause it happens a bit too much for my taste (at least once a day for each of my servers).

[Edge100x]

Yes, DICE is very aware, and they get new reminders quite frequently from RSPs .

battelog, blaze, pb server and bf server aren't reliable enough.

well, it seems that they'll realize that they're killing the BF PC community too late.

many fixes, lots of server restarts and no solution.

and players keep blaming the servers admin...

[.=QUACK=.Major.Pain]

PB blows anyway.

There was another anti-cheat company that was in the works to be the exclusive anti-cheat for BF3, but EA/DICE wanted to purchase the entire company and have full control of it, but they were smart enough to refuse. It's very hard to get into the loop of this company and get the use of it. It was used by some groups on BFBC2, and the hackers couldn't beat it, so they attacked the companies website and shut them down. Now the company only deals with their existing membership and won't take on any new groups.

Either my servers have been crashing all day or Blaze is having a really shitty day today. Anyone know what's up? All players have been dumped from each of my servers about twice today and now they are all dead unable to be filled back up because of this. Should I put in a support request to make sure they are not server crashes?

EDIT: But then, the servers do seem to stay on Battlelog once it happens so probably not a server crash and probably terrible Blaze acting up.

[TimSad]

Okay, it is happening every time a round ends! Something is seriously effed up! These rounds don't even produce a Battle Report! They just end the round then dump everyone with no Battle Report. I just sent in a ticket to see if you guys can figure out what the problem is. Would server restarts fix the problem, perhaps?

[Edge100x]

That's when Blaze needs to be contacted, so it does sound like another internal Blaze issue. We can check the logs and see more, though.

[woowoo]

We are intermittently experiencing both lag and server drops.
