Everybody knows this since day one, but these farming servers are getting worse and worse.
Do something DICE!
My Suggestion:
Check those servers with 1 or 2 people, using AI to identify if they are using to farm exp and obliterate them.
The real problem is that EA is not removing the experiences. No matter how many times you report them, they stay up. You get an email saying that no action was taken. Therefore, you get the sense that EA condones them, or is unwilling to take action in opposition to its original stance of the game on launch.
Therefore, the only logical conclusion is that EA must give full XP to all experiences; even custom. Otherwise, they will continue to kill innovation, continue to kill portal, and continue to drive people to experiences EA pretends it does not condone.
I seriously question whether humans work at EA and whether any of these messages are read by anybody but ourselves.
but if u text someone in game something rude, EA will sure contact you via email with ban :D
playing devil's advocate here, why is this so bad? aside from using servers that could be used for others, why is this so bad?
That's a good question.
Whether boosting is bad is a matter of opinion. It's mostly an argument of morals and whether one person feels pressured into doing it in order to not feel unfairly disadvantaged. Everyone who does do it, feels remorse for their illogical stats; so even they obviously question the validity of doing it.
But why is it bad? Well, that has a technical answer. The answer is that EA's system can't accomodate it. Performance-wise, it is terrible. It makes each server used for only one solo person. When boosting is happening, you can tell. Every other community server has terrible lag spikes, high ping, and are hard for people to find and join.
So, if people are going to do it, it's only fair that all servers get full XP to hopefully drive that traffic to that more legitimate server, that more people can experience at the same time, that EA supposedly encourages.
Or DICE etc could do the proper thing and make all that farming obsolete by making the game less grindy.
Cause and effect. The farming is the effect and the live servicey mmorpg grind is the cause.
Obviously none of you played fps in the 90s on pc. Back then we hosted our own servers and people found their own servers to play on. Back then there was no progression, lvls, or unlocks and it was fun.
It was all about what game mods was accepted depending on what server you were on. As far as cheating went, games like Medal of Honor Spearhead didnt have anticheat. It was all based on what the server allowed. Each clan had their own server they paid for and banned who needed to be banned. We took shifts watching our servers for cheating. 2 or more players from the clan would watch everyone on the server.
I was/am a member of the {FBI} clan in the 90s. We decided what was right or wrong on our servers. Our server was located at our leaders homes back then.
I was on the impression BF6 was gonna be like this. But I was wrong. It takes 2 to 3 years before EA or Dice gets things right. Been that way since BF4.
Miss those good Ole days even though it was on dialup internet Lmao. The experience was epic.
Platoons maintaining and policing their server is still the best anti cheat 👍
