Re: R21 Patch server issues.
mine is showing 30 but the adaptive slots functionn doesnt seem to be working. the server is empty and usually reads 0/8.
Re: R21 Patch server issues.
Seems Dice doesn't like their Official servers running more slots then they require for certain game modes. They capped it! So now if you want 64 players you can only run Conquest large, Rush only 32 TDM only 24 etc... WHAT A JOKE!
Our adaptive slots is no longer working either now after this CRAP patch! Thanks a lot DICE. I think all server owners should drop Official and switch to ranked. That's the only way to get their attention. That way all players who use the play now function won't be able to find servers.

Re: R21 Patch server issues.
thats what it will come down to if they keep throttling control on Official. if my server is going to sit empty, i might as well have control over it.I think all server owners should drop Official and switch to ranked.

Ranked or Official ---> Dagger through the HEART of BF4!
Feel sorry for the HOSTS that invested in new equipment only to find revenue fly out the window...
Good going DICE!

Re: R21 Patch server issues.
I am so mad about this capping our server slots and also not allowing variable slots to work which used to keep our server populated for days. Today I can hardly get the server kicked up as it's locked us at 50 slots. I can't understand why variable slotting hurt anyone -- our CQL server ran up to 50 slots and was always busy -- and of course I just renewed our server yesterday for three months only now to get yet another slap in the face to those of us that pay a lot of money to rent large slot servers. I'm so pissed off right now at EA again for not understanding or caring how we build communities and how we can even afford to pay to rent servers for people to play their game on. I'll be switching off official as all this control they are enforcing has made it impossible to run a server my clan and I pay for. EA can run their own dam servers if they want all this control.

Switched all our servers to ranked... A good game destroyed...
Re: R21 Patch server issues.
I'm hoping they revert this part of the patch. It came completely out of left field for us and they clearly didn't think about server owners.
As soon as they told us that this was happening, I was clear with them why it was a bad idea. If you also think it's a bad idea, please post on their forums, tweet them, contact EA support, etc, so they hear from you directly.

EA driving another game into the ground, glad I jumped ship when I did, although our initial investment in our game slots was put to waste(servers constantly crashed when we had ours).

Please make sure that they hear from you directly. Our feedback to them does not have anywhere near the weight that thousands of gamers can provide.
Re: R21 Patch server issues.
I'm still taken back by everyone who is upset that this is going on. It was known from the beginning that they wanted official servers to be run a certain way.
Why are people surprised by this?
Trust me I'm on the side of "let admins run their servers the way they want" and always have been and it sucks that we don't get people joining the servers through the play now or whatever the heck it is. BUT I also said from the beginning that they will want official servers run how they want them. And that's exactly why I'm not running any.
It's completely frustrating that they are doing "Official" Servers, but nothing has changed from release. We all knew they wanted them run how they wanted. We should focus on asking for them to send people to non official servers instead of trying to change official servers to how we want them to be run.

Re: R21 Patch server issues.
I and another group member posted on the battlefield facebook asking for them to revert this change.
Re: R21 Patch server issues.
any idea when R22 which i guess is 106533 will be installed here? No point in populating our 2nd server if they are gonna be updated soon.
Re: R21 Patch server issues.
marrr, we'll update it early tomorrow morning. It's too late in the day to do a non-emergency global update today. R22 does not revert the official server change.
