Get Some Battlefield 3 Server Status

[Hugo Stiglitz]

How come your servers are always down lately? I usually try to play on them but there are often none online.

Great News! Thanks .osiRiS!! Since the latest patch GetSome are the only servers that I dont get PB kicked....

Mind if i ask just what was going on osiRiS?
Saw one post, you said you couldn't get any files to the serv, but what else?
Just curious

[.osiRiS]

Only servers that were down to my knowledge were the 64p servers as they werent providing load outs and were reportedly crashing. They had some missing files that were one revision behind.

I keeping getting the "Something went wrong" message when playing your servers, mainly the 64p Caspain, but also the Rush. Is this the server crashing? After this error the server I was on isn't listed in the server browser :S

Fast Vehicle #57 fell over tonight (10:13pm)
Went to join at 10:12 - "Cannot join server, Server is changing maps"
Tried again - "cannot join server as it's not there anymore!"
2 Minutes later the server is back online
:*(

Cleaner tripped over the plug....

GetSome 24/7 caspain 64p just died with error "Something went wrong"

fast vehicle 57 has fallen over at least twice tonight at the end of the round - also has the ping kicker been turned off - we had 10 players pinging 200+ on just now - made it quite hard to hit them

lol I'm sure

Anyway, #57 fell over again as I tried to join it tonight.
On join = Server is changing maps
On retry = Server isn't there anymore.
Seems unstable as it changes maps.

[.osiRiS]

I can only speculate but perhaps the increase of traffic from Arma 2 is impeding on things?

[rav349]

yep fast vehicle just went down again, it was almost full too

this has happened again - just now

[private_hell]

and caspian 24/7 - #56 just fell over at the end of the round too

[s3bsta]

Yeh painful, was playing for Double XP, crashed and burned, lost everything. Hope u guys can find out the issue soon as it's not worth playing on atm. That or get rid of that cleaner

Obviously if it's network related this may not be relevant but could be good opportunity to setup some alternative servers with some of the same maps. I pm'ed LeadCollector some suggestions.

[.osiRiS]

Will try running 1 64p server and seeing how it goes otherwise yea we can ruin same set ups with smaller numbers.

[s3bsta]

If ure gonna take down 56 or 57 its gotta be groundhog day 56 not 57

how about changing an existing Server #17 to 48 player Conquest server with just Bazaar, Tehran, Seine, Metro and Damavand maps. See how stable it is @ 48

[s3bsta]

56 seems more popular but I wonder whether its becasue 57 seems more problematic also.

we already know even with the 1 map it still crashes so that can be eliminated

[private_hell]

#57 has crashed again at he end of the round - 9:53pm

[.osiRiS]

From what I've been told it's not constant though? Only crashes sometimes?

[s3bsta]

Yeah is not every round from when I've played. Is like Russian roulette.

[slicD-woodN-caT]

Do the servers run on a single super bitchingly awesome machine? like,, hmm a 16core 56gb super mega awesome machine or .. ?

[private_hell]

crashed twice in the row so far tonight

They do but I have 300 slots of Dayz players connecting to that server as well.
