BF4 Server Release 11 Information
We have the files for the new R11 patch, but on review of the changelog we've decided at this time to wait until offpeak to deploy. This is subject to change depending on advice from DICE.
Please expect a downtime at approximately Midday AEDST Tomorrow (22 November) to deploy this patch. Servers will be offline for between 10 seconds and 5 minutes, depending on your position in the update queue on your host. |

Lives? Maybe. Asleep at that time, hell yes.
Patch is done, and some of the servers were full again less than 2 minutes after it was deployed. |

Lives? Maybe. Asleep at that time, hell yes. Looks like a few of our servers aren't appearing in Battlelog, despite Procon connecting fine - everything all good at your end? |

My end is more than fine, its fabulous.
Also... I can't find any servers under your account Taverner, if you can give me the IP:Port of one of the servers I'll investigate. |

This patch done crap still cant change tickets or idle longer than they said.Yeah, I got a bit shouty with DICE's community guy last night about this, but they are listening and considering your (our) feedback. They really are great at listening and making sure they understand what you guys want, but they are very wrapped up in fixing bugs right now. Basically: They changed it so that "Ranked" now allows you to change the idle timeout and ticket counts to whatever you like. "Normal" and "Hardcore" still lock it to exactly 100% - so the change doesn't help anyone who wants to run a Normal or Hardcore server. Check page 9 of the Server Administrator .pdf file in that docs link. |

I wasn't complaining so I am not sure why you did this and didn't provide any notice. I had to alter all anticheat tools and gametracker and Procon. I firmly believe the issues we have are not hardware related but software related to the EA/DICE release. Moving to another machine isn't going to fix that |

I firmly believe the issues we have are not Do you mean you were trying to find it in the favourites tab in GameTracker, or Battlelog? Your server's unique ID hasn't changed since 8 November, so it should still be in your favourites or history in Battlelog. We do not wait for customer complaints to fix performance issues. Your server was on an over-subscribed host and would have provided very poor gameplay to anyone playing on it. |

Changing the host isn't going to fix sound problems that still exists certain maps eg Golmud Railway. I would consider this more contfibuting to poor gameplay. So if you have planned maintianence you don't notify your customers in advance - you just go ahead and do it? |

When R11 server patch came out I notice people all leaving the full 64 slot server at once just like a crash. I have a look at the Failure Reports and shows no crash have happen.
Was there a update/change in Failure Reports to not shot when server crash beside only show when it was stop/restarted? Also I notice I cant make idle time out higher then 300 and tickets higher then 100 on ranked server? |
