Haha, I fear the opposite, should they launch like 3 servers and all of them will be full..

I wonder how many "matches" can be run on one server though.

21 February is just around the corner, fun times ahead.

Tomorrow is D day!

On a side note, anyone else notice more and more hackers playing BF1?

Whenever I notice some suspicious play, I disconnect and reconnect as spectator and wow, these okes are blatantly hacking, it's clear as day!

Hopefully fairfight eventually bans these okes, no fun being sniped from so far that you can't even see the guy.

This has been an issue from BF4, some okes are good with snipers, very good. They would easily snipe across the map as long as they can see a bit of movement. Doesn't make them hackers, some people are very good.

No doubt, but auto aiming and shooting in a matter of seconds, getting multiple kills in say 5 seconds is just not possible without hacking.

What traffic do you need in order to host this?

Bwahaha. This is EA, they host it them self's. No user hosted options. Specs of the servers remain a secret. Bandwidth as well. I would assume it's some decent Gigabit fibre links and rather beefy servers.

No idea, there are rent a server options available, but not for SA at the moment, might become live tomorrow though.

But ya, SA servers apparently going live tomorrow, but guess you can still rent (host) your own if you really want to

Yes, you can rent, but can't get the files to host on your own server...

Now I'm sad I didn't buy this on special, at it's current price it's not worth it.
