Game Community Server Crashes

 

THIS IS AN ISSUE DICE LIVE TEAM. GAME SERVER CRASHES.

 

After extensive searching through multiple forums I have determined that every single game server hosting BF2142 at this current time has an issue with crashing at random times throughout each day. The issue causing these crashes are speculation at this point and point towards multiple possibilities. One being BF2142cc and another being a theory that BF2142 release is based on the BF2 1.3 patched engine which as most of us remember was riddled with lots of server crashes. Multiple server provider forums also suggest seeing stats on server crashes consistant with BF2 1.3 Patch crashes when logs are reviewed and error reports compared.

 

While there are many issues with BF2142 at this time such as the EA Master Server not being up to snuff to handle all login requests or keep stats accurate, to the current issue with community stat access being shut down. Not to mention the numerous gameplay issues and bugs discovered and documented in random threads all over the place.

 

What I urge is for DICE Live Team to concentrate a large bulk of their skills on stopping the server crashes that happen consistantly to every BF2142 server currently in operation. This is NOT an isolated event. This is NOT some faulty hardware or driver issue. This is happening to ALL (based upon my findings) BF2142 servers.

 

I also know without any speculation that multiple server hosting companies including Wolfservers, Trinity Games and others have opened up problem tickets with your official server support teams. I know that these tickets are well documented and include quite a bit of data demonstrating exactly what is going on the server during crashes.

 

The Gaming Community, when it's able to even log into the game in the first place, can not enjoy or play the game they are purchased simply because the game servers can't stay up for any extended period of time. This drops all players from the server and it is rarely that the server is occupied to game start status without significant community support in attempting to populate their various servers.

(This post will be posted in multiple forms to insure that someone within the DICE LIVE TEAM will see this and grasp the necessary importance of this issue. We expect to see a community update detailing this issue and insuring us the community that DICE LIVE TEAM is aware of this problem and is working on it.)

hmmmmm.......not much to convince me to buy it still

nice find

Isn't that just wonderful.

I find our server doesnt crash too often which is a good thing, I think it has only crashed once while in our server for me, but I havent been able to play the game as much as I would like to lately. I wish these things would be fixed before the game is released but I expect this from EA now days.
