How to edit a battlefield 1 rental server after purchase.
With new game features that are released, there can be a bit of confusion on how to make changes. Below are some steps that will allow you to make all changes available to the rental servers you have for your PC.
- First, launch the Origin client, log in with your EA account and launch Battlefield 1.
- At the main menu, click on the Multiplayer tap at the top of the screen. It should be the second option.
- Next click on "Server Browser" and go to the My Server tab at the top of the screen.
- Move your mouse over near the play button to the very right. Three dots (♦♦♦) will appear for a drop down.
- Click the three dots and a drop down menu will pop up with different options for your server.
- Click configure on the bottom of the list. This will take you to the edit section of your rental server.
I did some testing on this for a few things and I ran into one issue after a day of my rental. I noticed that if your server runs out and you add more time to it, it doesn't always let you edit the changes again. I contacted EA support and they were able to fix that from their end.
However, the fix did reset a few things like server name, server message and a couple low end options. The ones that were reset ha no real effects to my actual server though. You will have a chance to rename it, give it a new message etc. I had bug reported this so they can look at the issue and see if it was just my server or a real issue.
