BF1 Devs Flirting With No More Rented Servers Idea

Featured Replies

I mean obviously right? Of all the things to keep secret until launch day, community servers is one of them? Ok, I get the fun idea of maybe keeping the fact we may be riding horses in Battlefield 1 secret, but nope, that was revealed, or that we may have shovels and swords as weapons, but yet again, that was revealed. Hold up just a minute, I'm about ready to finish my first cup of coffee in the morning, which by the way shows my ostentatious coffee snob elitism, or the fact that I am an aging gamer that can barely move in the morning without a jolt, and I'm not talking about the wife's elbow. This time of day represents my clearest thoughts, so bare with me...

 

Are the EA/DICE devs really flirting with the idea to take away community ran servers? Why would they be waiting so long to tell us this news? There are few answers in my opinion, and all are unacceptable. First possible answer, yes, the Devs are flirting with the idea and seriously considering removing community servers like they did with Battlefront. We got the teaser reveal that there would be a server browser, but that's it. That tells us practically nothing actually. It sounds to me like we will get to pick the ruleset we want to play at a very minimum. Second answer? The game must still be so horribly unfinished such that community browsers just aren't implemented yet. This would mean that the Devs would have a total of two remaining months to implement community servers and work all the bugs out. That sounds like an awful deadline to achieve considering how long it took BF4 to have decent community netplay. For such a short release cycle, they must certainly be using older game code meaning we will not be playing on a new gaming engine, but just new gaming skins. Hardline anyone?

 

Either way, whether the Devs are flriting with the idea of taking away community run servers, or whether the game is an unfinished mess, or a little bit of both, we deserve better. If we are waiting for a sign whether we should move on and find another game, maybe this is it.

I'm feeling the same. This is the same question I have been wondering about too.

Well, we should keep an open mind, and be flexible for sure.  I have to tell you, though, I'm not exactly thrilled about a WWI game to begin with.  Without rented servers, well, that would be the final straw for me.  I believe they will have them, but who knows for sure.  Call of Duty Modern Warfare will be releasing in November, and I plan to get it, and there is also Arma.  :)  

I wish more players played Arma 3! 15-20 guys would be a perfect amount instead of the usual 6-7 we have.

 

New clan rule: must have Arma 3 :)

Couldn't agree more. I feel ARMA could be the best game of all time if we developed good PVP scenarios. I really think that game could be the future.

I just took a dump and I named it "Beretta".

 

 

 

You don't know when to stop right ?

 

Not to mention that this last one is pretty disrespectful.

 

Careful dude  :thumbsup:

Disrespect is not tolerated. Period
