BC2 Server owners thread.

Hi All,

I could also do with a little help getting my sparkly new server populated - I think the odds are stacked against us - 12k servers for 80k peak players!

If some folks could come along and join in at some point, it would be much appreciated! Steam ID and BC2 nick are both Xexr btw. Server details below:



Thanks all!

Hi

No offence but you are going to struggle now, Ea should have capped the number of servers back at release when they were having problems with their Plasma back end network. The game became too popular for its own good, as you said the numbers are against you, And if you look in here, EA and multiplay forums you will see there are already lots of people like yourself with empty servers

Problem you have now is that people have a favourites list from the first few servers they have played on since the start and they wont go looking elsewhere unless they have problems, cant get in or the server closes.

All I can suggest is run the PB trick mentioned previously in this post and go sit in your server for a bit with some mates, it then seems to populate via the Join now button. Also dont expect much during the week, Thursday-Sunday night is peak gaming time according to our stats

Hope you didnt pay for a full year, we went 3 months and i think for our group we will find a new home after that expires, You may find things pick up as people let their subscriptions lapse after the initial excitement is over

Hey,

Nah this is exactly what I thought - noticed similar trends on some other games too. Will have to see how it goes I guess :) Thanks for the heads up!
 
I am sure the 'play now' button will populate servers in order once a certain amount of people are on it, but how many are needed, I cannot be sure.

I was just messing about with a few mates last night on ours and suddenly BOOM, the server was full. Happens all the time. Nice touch I must say.
 
After rolling back to R8, it seems none of my rcon commands through ProCon are recognised.. anyone else having this issue?

Post them here mate and i'l get them added.

Please note:

The only way your server will get added to the main page is if their is "OCUK" in the server name.

I think its only fair we do it that way otherwise we are gona be spammed to hell with every tom dick and harry wanting their server posted there.

pb is on all time . 32 man rush normal . it is very busy once started .if anyone giz a hand to start ill hop on theres or anyone elses :cool:
 
Ahaa....I was going to start a thread on BC2 gripes concering PB, but seeing as you've kind of started one.....
I've not read all the posts in here, so please excuse if i'm going over what's been said already.
But i was playing BC2 last night and was getting owned with such ease that i became suspicious, especially when i empty 1.5 clips from a XM8 into a sniper rushing in a straight line at me from about 60ft or so, only to be stabbed to death by him without him dying.
So, i checked the server info and just about every server i visited said PB is 'OFF'.
Does this mean that these 'tards are cheating in all these servers, or is it just saying it's off when its really on? Either way, something fishy is going on, and i'm finding it hard to find decent non-cheating/laming servers to play on.
Or, is it possible that i'm mistaking cheating for really lousy weapon balance, which tbh is bad (M24 sniper shot to the chest from 20ft, no kill!?!?! wtf?!?!

Any clarification would be great, thanks.
