Server Crashes...

[Tommygun]

Hi All. I dont think its just me but Ive seen (anecdotally) a great many more server crashes recently. I've been playing a year or so but there seem to be a great many more crashes than there were in the past or is it my imagination?

What do people think is the issue? Im trying to get my head round it...

PR code has not changed...other than addition of Falklands and Im not sure that it would have any impact.

Have windows released any updates that servers have applied and correlate to the increase in crashes? If there isnt anything tangible all I can assume is some ddos/server attack from some grumpy banned ex player or the like?...Maybe EA wanting their players back on BF3...

i agree... the amount of servers crashing has gone way up

Yeah this think is really a big issue and its annoying as hell.
For example:
i was yesterday on [NEW] (great guys around there btw....) and the server crashed 3 times in a row and after it "stabilized" it had massive amount of lag.
result almost everyone went to the (C.I.A) Server (not that this is a bad server, but i guess u know what i meant)

There's definitely something fishy going on with the amount of server crashes in the past week or so.

^ Agree. Somehow, I think a infamous griefer is responsible for this.

It was indeed the work of a griefer.
There is a fix for it in the server admin area.
Affected server admins should apply it as soon as possible.

At least NEW is back to usual stability again.
