AK: Server crashes
Anyone's server crashing with the new maps, ours just crashed a few minutes ago.

Re: AK: Server crashes
One crash here right after we first started - but none since then.
Re: AK: Server crashes
No crashes yet.
Re: AK: Server crashes
Well, mine finally went down to apply R30. I don't get it... Is there never any updates any more that you guys can just wait til the server is empty to apply? How would it have hurt to do so with this one?
Re: AK: Server crashes
DICE's updates all make changes that require all servers to be shut down at once now. DICE also has been telling us exactly when the updates need to occur, so we aren't allowed to do them early or late. All servers worldwide should have shut down at 1am PDT for today's R30 update.
Re: AK: Server crashes
As a follow-up on the server crash concern, we've definitely seen an overall uptick in crashes due to game bugs (in addition to the standard Blaze-related crashes). Some servers are crashing multiple times per day now. We have contacted EA/DICE about these and continue to provide them with access to our crash dump information; we expect for the most common crashes to be resolved in new versions.
Re: AK: Server crashes
We had the server crash with 2 people on.
It was unavailable for a period of time and when it became available it was reset to the first map in the rotation.
I note that R30 is rolling out but there is no mention of crash fixes in the change log. Any updates?

Re: AK: Server crashes
All we know about R31 right now is what was said in the event, I'm afraid.
Re: AK: Server crashes
why do some servers take much longer than others to get the update applied and boot back up to operating status? Some of my servers that I'm least concerned about tend to finish applying and boot back up right away. Any way to put my 64 player server as a priority over those ones?
Re: AK: Server crashes
The upgrade is applied by turning off all servers on the machine, then adjusting each server in turn (with all machines performing this option concurrently). The extra time between the first and last server to be brought back up will not be more than a couple of minutes for BF3. We don't have a facility to give one customer higher priority than others in this process, but I can look into making the "higher CPU priority" option also apply to it.
