Battlefield 3 thread - Server details in opening post -

Is it just me or is SQDM just a race to the LAV? Played a few rounds on various maps and every one seemed to end up with an entire squad in it rolling around in a circuit mowing down anything that appeared! No one seemed to understand that concentrated fire from cover with rockets by an Engie would be preferable to standing in the open waving at it as it fills them with lead as any of the other classes! Really doesn't help that I don't know the maps that well yet either :(
 
We’re dropping our servers once they run out in 3 months.

Due to us being a fairly big clan we have people who like playing different modes so it’s hard to pin point a server that suits everyone.

All we need is a 16man server just to play in ladder matches.

Tbh tho I think BF3 has a small shelve life, I’m extremely board of it but do enjoy a bit of 40man TDM on the bibber server… Gutted tbh. However we’re going to make a move to CS:GO when it comes out as most of the guys prefer playing matches to playing on pub servers.
 
blah blah and yet you still continue to rabbit on about just how much you are bored of the game. If you were truly bored of it, and not just on a vendetta, you'd simply stop.
 
prefer tdm myself my scrim buddies arnt about as much as id like :( and i thought about doing scrims again as miss that side of gaming .

cod4 was last game we got into and was very good in that aspect still very big now competitively now.

as for shelve life for bf3 not quite sure think it might do pretty well upto next release in october but if its moh2 or whatever they calling it people may just stick with bf3 with extra maps.

never can tell.

I still yearn for the love of Root. :o



I tried to remove the vehicle spawns from certain maps (how bazaar how bazaar and seinfield crossing) and or tried slowing the vehicle spawns down drastically but it turns my server from a hardcore busy server into a custom server which dies a slow and lonely death. In other words, Dice dont want the game played without those vehicles.

Really not sure what to do about the B2K maps. Fact is if you run both you get less traffic. Since adding them to my server ive not managed to keep a full server overnight, and that includes busy weekends. When i ditch the b2k maps ive had my server full for over 1 week 24/7.

My two options atm are disable the completely or just enable them during peak hours and disable them at around 10pm before i hit the sack. Gonna start a poll on my site regarding this and probably go with the majority vote.

Could order a second server for a month and have it as B2K only, see what the response is? :p
 
The tank on Seine is a problem close quarters if the driver has the proximity perk. A spotter and SPAM mortars often do the trick. Been tryin to get up high and lob C4 out of the window lately - no success yet. Iquite enjoy the challenge of the tank on Seine and LAV on Bazaar, even though I usually end up dead. It'd be nice to coordinate some squad/team strategy to deal with these nuisances quickly and maybe put off the guys who regularly abuse them. Need separate TS channels for each team though, can't have the other side listening in.
 
Tha LAV on bazaar is only an issue if you have a good squad using it, normally a few rockets later and it's gone.

The tank on Seine is a bit strange though.

Some advice... Once you start down the road of other servers is where it gets annoying! Your better off sticking with one good server and keeping it full!

So true. It just becomes a chore having to fill one and then have to see to the 'other' 1. I would just to weekend specials of b2k maps in rotation. Nothing big just 1 round and then throw in some of the fave vanilla maps.
 
Matt could possibly do different nights if you asked, but having 1 server is pretty hard work to run, I see the effort matt and co put in.

Thats a good idea James, and the best idea ive heard so far. ;)

If i did get another server it would most likely be a B2K one only.

Why didnt you post this great idea on my forum? :p

EDIT

Can someone put in a good word with 'Root' for me? :D

Why do you care if your server has people in it when you're sleeping?! As long as there's people playing when you're on that's all that matters surely?

The B2K maps are some of the best in the game, i don't understand why you'd get rid of them because it means that the server isn't full when you're sleeping!
 
The problem with b2k maps is that it can get pretty uneven fast if one of the teams is pony. Then people start to leave and you get a dead server. Still love them and are pretty decent effort. Karkand city does need some tlc after a good round:p
