@EA_Atic  @Straatford87 Just wanted to bring to your attention about the server disconnects that's been happening on the PS3 for Battlefield 3. The problem happens only on the East US Servers, I own 2 rented servers and the problem has started at the beginning of last week 8/29/22 and has been presently been ongoing. The games will run fine at times resulting in at least 3 hours of un-interrupted gameplay then at random the game will freeze players in place and then the disconnect will happen resulting in kicking every player out of the server. Players can get back into the server and restart it but the the disconnect can happen again within just minutes sometimes after 10-15 minutes of restarting the game and doing the same thing as mentioned above. There have been times when it is not possible to connect to the server as the "joining" prompt will load longer than usual and then the error message will show up. This doesn't commonly happen but there are some issues that are isolated to the East US Servers. The European, Australia, Asia and West US servers don't have this intermittent disconnect and hope there could be a solution. This has affected many players and we all hoping the problem goes away. I also own the Xbox version and the East US servers don't have these intermittent game disconnect.

@EA_Atic @Straatford87 Not sure who else I can tag but this is an entire stream of me documenting the situation at hand. It seems to be affecting even the West US servers as well and loses connection at different time for each server. I'm suggesting that the weather and storms are a cause of the servers losing connection especially the United States as the European, Asia and Australia servers are working fine with no disconnects. Earlier this year when the snow storms hit we had a very similar issue and it affected both West and East US servers.

*Update* I tried to play again on PS3 and I couldn't get into either West or East US server. If I got into a game it was only about 10-15 min play time before the server decided to crash kicking all players. Then right after the crash you cannot connect back to any of the West/East US server, there always seems to be 1 East US server being played but not for too long before it crashes. It wasn't as bad last week but this week is entirely unplayable you would have to play on a European server or Australia and Asia. I have another link to what exactly happens when trying to connect to the servers.

Yes it is every single server. The game is being destroyed by someone on the inside. Take a look, there are no games to even play. It coincides with the patch on 2042. I will say this much" We wan't our game back, you can shove 2042". Someone has to contact whoever hosts the servers and get it fixed or we have no game. It has been murdered.
