Battlefield 3 and EA problems.?

Question

I am looking forward to buying battlefield 3 because i just got bored playing MW3. Anyways I have a PS3 and i have played other games from EA like FIFA World cup south africa 2010 and I have experienced nothing but problems with the EA servers. Every time i open that game it says ( EA server cannot be found, try again later). I am afraid that if i buy battlefield 3 i will have the same problem. Is this problem common or existing in Battlefield 3?

Answer 1

Not anymore with BF3. For some reason EA dedicated servers slimmed down and allowed people to rent servers and make their own rules and such. It's bull poop and I hate it, I payed for the servers and graphics. All I'm getting now is graphics. Your internet might be the issue here in this case since EA servers are some of the best out there.

Anyhow ever since BF3 servers became public rented you would get a much better connection depending on the person's ping and internet provider. I really recommend BF3, the game is simply amazing.

*there are still some dedicated servers out there but not many*

Add me if you want.

From personal experience the Battlefield Servers have been ok. They were a little funky to start off with and they had some problems keeping them up but now worst case i have had is the server dropping the game maybe 1 in 40 games.



You can check server status here: http://www.ea.com/servers/battlefield3

You might need to reconnect you Internet connection, or the servers might be undergoing maintence...

PS3 has many problems with other game servers were as XBOX Live have stronger server connection...

Time out maybe... :/

The servers are not that bad you will be fine maybe a hiccup here and there.
