Ya i am gonna chat with the bfc guys tonight but i think we are going to leave out the bigger maps, perhaps only firestorm will stay in. I hopefully have something sorted by dec. Also thinking of hosting 55/60 player rush as well because i have not seen that yet. Must be insane.

That server will be packed to the rafters.
Just don't do 64. 64 lags like crap, maybe if you take the vehicles away it will run 64 players easy. I have seen the sweet spot to be about 56 players with vehicles. 64 is just a little too big.

Yes please leave Caspian border out. That map sucks donkey balls.
 
I'd love to play 64 player rush, but with 300 tickets for the attacking team?

Also please leave Caspian Border and Firestorm out :D

Kharg Island, Bazaar, Metro, Seine are all fine :D

Yea i think we will limit it to 55 because the lag is kuk hey and it only lags once it's 32 vs 32.

Fire storm is EPIC !

Only because I get insane sniper kills on that map. :p

And I fully support a 64 player rush with 300 tickets. Make hard for the defending team. It's nothing to kill 75 players :mad:
Better yet, make it 500 tickets. You will have to defend like a beast to stop them from getting it :D
 
Make it 64 man and all the maps but infantry only. Run it for a while get feedback and drop the maps the clan does not like or the ones not working lekker. The lekker thing is the admin can set the amount of player slots on the fly. Do if the server lags the admin just kicks the bottom 5 players on both teams and set the limit to 54
 
Lol. 50+ man rush. Will be insane... As long as the team doesn't give up trying to arm the mcom... Was playing a hc server last night where the opposing team gave up and just sat in their spawn camping... Now that was boring... My score/min took a knock as there was almost nothing to do...

I find attacking on rush HC is near impossible. Firstly the team is so shyte scared to run in that you get nowhere and then secondly after a few minutes the team is sick of dying and decides to snipe. Rush on HC is rubbish, too much hiding. Also i find some of the rush maps are just pathetic for the attacking team.
 
I found Rush on BC2 way better. I used to love playing rush! For some reason it just isnt as fun on BF3 and I cant exactly put my finger on why it sucks.

The maps are too large and attacking is very difficult on many of them.

Caspian is one i can use an example, attackin is hard as it is and they still give the defenders a frogfoot to kill the armour. Rush in bf 3 is far from balanced.
 
had a wierd issue for the first time last night. I could log in, connect to a server nut it just sat loading all the time. i gave up after 10 min. tried 3 different servers. my ping was good. will have to try again tonight.

If you get the BF3 icon on your task bar, try clicking on that. I think that the game manager gets easily distracted by other stuff.
 
i just want to ask if there will be a 50 Cal sniper rifle in BF3. Does any one know ??
 
Anyone here using a gamepad for flying? Got the Xbox 360 controller for PC and would like to know tips on setting it up.
 
Hi, quick question are all servers rented from gameservers.com? and what kind of lag difference do you get between CPT and JHB?

You might be lucky and it works just like that. But.....

Setting up a controller just takes a bit of time.

Go into the options (say jets) and remove all of the key bidings for your controller. Save. This takes time as you have to do them one at a time. Tip - start at the bottom of the list.

Go back in and then set them up.

Save.

Go back in and check that it is done.

Not all servers are from Gameservers. GS.com use the MWEB datacenters to host the servers, WAGE/iGame use their own I think.
When I moved my server from JHB to CPT the performance improved. This was due in part to better hardware and less traffic to the server compared to the JHB one.
