China Rising & Client Patch Questions

[Edge100x]

TimSad, in response to those mentioning stability problems since the patch application began. I believe that many of these crashes have been due to the way we're rolling it out. I've made a post about this now.

It's also possible that some crashes relate to the new maps/mode.

Is there a reason why some servers display China Rising on Battlelog and others do not?

Even though I have China Rising maps within the rotation, the icon in the server browser window isn't displayed. It was earlier but now seems to be random for everyone.

Seeing people trying to join but not actually getting in then had 6 make it in game and all were kicked and server went down 5 times since the update. Also see that punkbuster keeps turning itself off.

Seeing the same thing. Lots of players joining but many not having the ability to stay.

I see the message at the top of Battlelog now saying "WE ARE AWARE OF A DISCONNECTION ISSUE, WE ARE WORKING TO FIX IT ON THE BACKEND. SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE".

I also notice that PB is being globally disabled by EA/DICE after servers are started. Presumably it's incompatible with the latest client/server and this is a workaround.

What's odd is some servers are holding their playerbase while many others through NFO are constantly dropping. Guess we'll see how things turn out as the night progresses. Oh Dice..... just can never have a smooth transition can we?


Edit: Also noticing atm that PB isn't being disabled on my server while running as Official. I see the messaged: PunkBuster Server: Preparing to Disable PB Server... (c:\servers\shadowraze\bf4\pb\)

However, doesn't seem to follow through after that.

Honestly... did you expect them to? Our top priority fixes don't even seem to be on their radar. Sad...

How do I get the china rising emblem on the browser? I've got only the DLC maps selected in my map cycle..

[Scratch1]

The only way I have been able to run CR maps on my server is run DLC only without map preset cycle

XP1_001 AirSuperiority0 1
XP1_002 AirSuperiority0 1
XP1_003 AirSuperiority0 1
XP1_004 AirSuperiority0 1


I tried running these in TDM and Defuse and wouldnt show or would always go back to default maplist

My Server is rubberbanding on the new maps.It doesn't matter if it's on Air Superiority or regular conquest mode. If your flying it just keeps jumping back and forth. I think dice broke the game again. Is anyone else having this issue? I just run a 32 man server I wouldn't think I should have this issue.

no your not alone. I cant run any conquest maps for more than 1 round.

my server is kicking everyone..

EA..CRASH EVERYTHING

[Cyrcle]

Server's been dropping players all morning since the patch. Also seem to get extreme rubber banding when ever anyone enters the game after joining. This is on an official server. I tried switching to Ranked but unable to get enough to join to test if the issue is with Official only.

Edit: Also, adjustable player limit is not adjusting down when players are dropped/leave.

I'd say a large majority of the player drops are because they dont have early access to the DLC(or any access for that matter). Their game will crash on the map change.

Haven't had any rubber banding issues yet on our servers surprisingly...but the 64 slot has not been full.

this happens with my server on stock maps as well
