The news we've all been waiting for. South Africa will get Battlefield 1 servers.

In early 2017, official DICE online servers are coming for:

South AfricaMiddle EastHong Kong

We don't know how it will work, if EA will use third-party hosts, all we care about is that it's coming. Let's give a big round of applause to our local Battlefield community as they have been the driving force behind this whole debacle. A shoutout to**JackFrags, and*LevelCapGaming*for their part in this victory

@stickfigure, i recommend buying it at next discount should be just before christmas, might as well play it and be ready for when servers go live. otherwise it will be at a higher price when servers arrives (when i say higher price i mean non discounted price)

There's currently a sale on for the Video Game Awards for consoles where BF1 is discounted (Xbox LIVE is already live, PSN may only start tomorrow). I know Steam is included, but not sure about Origin.

Game is awesome, I can't stop playing it, already at level 55. Hopefully the SA servers will be fun as well.

I'm also around mid 50's and loving it. Mainly play operations though.
One gripe is parties are a mess. People in my party get kicked to main menu or we get put on servers where my ping is 350 which is really annoying.

I haven't played as much as you have, I'm at level 17 or 18. It gets frustrating when you're a crap player like me, never had good hand eye coordination since childhood.

I joined one of your games and you were 4-1 on argon forest. Think you were sniping.
