Hi all,
This is now under investigation.

Thank you.

This guy TcotC_boUntY was streaming last night and he was playing metro in this server:
But battlelog was showing a different map "Wake Island"
And i tried to join that server two times but i couldn't. Also other players couldn't join the server too. I told Bounty in twitch chat about this issue on Battlelog and he asked server's admin to restart the server. After restart of the server we were able to join the server. I think there is an obvious "desync" problem between Battlelog and servers.
Also you should check these screenshots too:
There was noone in this server last night but Battlelog was showing that players were trying to join this server.
Servers' admins say there is no problem with servers. The main problem is with Battlelog in this situation.
I hope EA workers can fix this issue. Thanks for all your help in advance.

we are having the same issue on our server
no one can join before a fresh restart & nothing else will help
hope they reverse what they did at EA asap

It is EA activly shuting down the servers. After some time of leting server crash the playerbase wil naturly decline. This then gives them the right to take down the game, website and any support.
- CANONBALLZ2 years agoNew Scout@HaveSomeT3a they don't need to do that to shutdown the servers they have no obligation & they can announce it if they want to & give players a grace period, i still believe they will fix it

Very surprised that you even got in touch @EA_Leeuw since 6 March 2024, after your "update" our server goes down every 1-2 hours (disappears from Battlelog or cannot be connected to). All this happens exactly until we install one single map. In this case, the server can only go down in case of DDOS from players with "broken stats", a thing that also can't be fixed for 4 years(!). This has also been written about many times, for example on Reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield3/comments/lzkwua/servers_crashing/
It would be great if you finally fixed what you broke on the 6th of March and fixed players with broken stats (something that was fixed in bf4 about a year or two ago)- south0fheaven2 years agoSeasoned Rookie
Also been having issues for weeks on two seperete PC's that nothing was changed, two separate accounts that I now have to log into the Battlelog page to play BF3 instead of just being directed to the BF3 Battlelog while signed into EA via the EA App.
Has become more then frustrating having to log in twice when I'm already logged into EA soon as the PC starts up.
Just get "Wrong E-Mail/Password" in pink when I start BF3 regardless if it's thru EA App or desktop BF3 icon. I do not and will not save any usernames or passwords in a browser, never have never will.Whatever you did EA you royally broke BF3 and are preventing many players from enjoying the game.

- 2 years ago@EA_Leeuw The problem definitely persists and I found a quick way to reproduce it. Hope @EA_Leeuw this helps you "speed up your investigation".
You can install 1 map on your server, connect (everything will be fine), then you need to send the following command via RCON mapList.add <map> <gamemode> <rounds> <offset> (just add any map, with any gamemod). After you do this - you can stay playing on the server. But if you want to exit and reconnect - you will get an error, which breaks the bf3 server. And then, after some time it disappears from the list of servers.
So I can say with 100% certainty that the problem is not yet fixed- CANONBALLZ2 years agoNew Scout
Hello well done describing the issue as you can reproduce it 100%
hope this help them pinpoint the glitch or bug they have
@EA_Leeuw please help fix this little bug that is making our life difficult & don't let this classic game dies

@EA_Leeuw Dare I ask how this 'This is now under investigation' is now going, last posted 3 weeks ago?
- 2 years ago@EA_Leeuw Will you do something about it? It's been a problem for two months. We don't see you even making an attempt to fix it.

"Will you do something about it? " They did, they perfomed maintenance this year. XD
Topic is marked as "solved". It`s BF3s unofficial end. Sad but true. They won`t do anything with it as this is exactly what they wanted to achieve. The next step will be probably an official information about closing BF3 due to the lack of gamers. XD
Tbh I`m about to uninstall the game as well as the ea app. BF3 was EPIC, cant say anything simillar about bf4, bf1, bf5 or this 2042 crap.

I hope not, as I'm closing in on my C4 dogtag after playing this game since release.
Only another 179 kills to go 😃
Seriously though, I do hope they look at fixing it. Not only for us that have played it for years, but those poor souls that bought it in the sales weeks before the broke it.
They're even selling it on their site:
- iBlindfolded2 years agoNew Scout@EA_Leeuw Do we have an update since this investigation started in April?
