Re: Crashing operations servers every night

What irritates me the most is the fact you have to finish operation to the end just for points to count, and its not fair we lose hours of work for thing that is NOT our fault, we are not leaving the lobby, we are disconnected and it happened many times I had 25 000 points even without multiplayer just to lose all cause server was crashed by the person. So we all end up losing hours upon hours on end for nothing, cause server can be crashed randomly at any time. Now it doesnt happen only during night I got servers crashed yesterday even in the morning, early afternoon.

The game has become pure stress, cause every lag you see might be sign of soon server crash. 

Cant at least this be fixed, so we get points and stats counted even if game ends before by Server Disconnect via carshing by hacker? Then server crashing wouldnt be such a big issue.

For people who can only play during hacker activity - like people in USA E its even worse they cannot earn sraps by playing Operations on rotation cause by constant server crashing mid game they lose all points.

Its really not fair, we paid for the product and we cannot even use basic things. 

And big issue is people are paying for Servers renting and this person is crashing their servers even with Admins in the lobby. There is no protection, and I hope EA recognizes the issue soon. For now only that one person has that hack if he decides to sell it to someone EA/Dice should know they game will be ruined and killed literally, cause if many people had that hack we would see server crashing non stop and noone would be able to play online portion of the game. Every time they would not be happy how game is going for them they would rage hack crash the server of would do it out of spite. We already have hackers with aimbots, invisibility in some parts of the day in almost every lobby. I cant even imagine what would happen if server crashing hack gets released and sold to more people. We saw what determined hackers in asia have done not long ago.

This is WAY WAY more serious issue that could make bf1 obsolete in one day.

    @VeterinarMario This is exactly what they want. Making BF1 obsolete. They want us to quit playing BF1 and buy the new game. Existence of cheaters is a perfect tool for this kinda strategy. Buying a game like BF2042 is not what I'm going to do. For me if BF1 dies, whole BF franchaise dies.

    @EA_Illium, we're following all the reporting protocols. I've submitted several reports about him, and after reviewing the status of the reports, I was surprised to see them marked "Resolved". How can they be resolved and that same person continues to cheat and crash servers daily?
    This is bigger than cheating in my opinion. He's targeting EA/DICE property including private servers to crash them and he knows nothing will be done about it, and so far, he's right.

    We really need the admins/Devs to come here and assure the community they're working on resolving this issue. OR tell us that you don't care so we can stop wasting time with reporting.

    Thanks,

    EA doesn't care.

    The representatives in these forums can't do anything other than regrugitate their standard protocols given by higher-ups.

    @MajStonedKilla So [Edit - Admin.] is doing it every day eh, I just stopped playing the game every evening. During day he isnt online, later in the day its just complete waste of time, nice that EA allows him...I just wonder maybe that khunt is on EA payroll, no other explanation

    ONE person is responsible for ruining an entire gaming experience daily, and the response we're getting is "sorry we're not equipped to ban that player, but continue to report, here is the link". How does this make any sense? Either DO something about it, or stop telling players to report because clearly nothing is done about it.

    Ridiculous!!!!

  • Yes pathetic, whenever I have most time to play he is crashing servers...these days I am only able to do daily 2 Ops battlepacks grind and thats it. Thanks to known person my gameplay time has been slashed by half. Cause even private servers are not safe. Its really sad that EA or DICE cant find the fix for it and are getting owned by a kid. Billion dollar company lost to some kid, it would be too funny if it wasnt that sad.

  • and again tonight thats it EA im switching to call of duty i am not giving anymore money cos you dont fix your games , over the years i have had fifa nascar amongst other titles from your garbage bin cos thats what EA have become GARBAGE i remember when you was a backstreet computer games seller in the 1980s given you people 1000s over the years not 1 red cent/penny more you thieving bunch of corporate funnies who lost their morality once they got rich, fix your game   !!!

    @MajStonedKilla I honestly don't blame you. I'm at that point, too. Our request to patch the server exploit is very reasonable. Having ONE person purposely crashing servers daily and nothing being done about it is total BS.

    @EA_Illium, That's what we have been doing for years, you may think I'm overreacting but that's actually true. He has been crashing official and paid servers for a very long time and still to this day, but nothing has been done about him. I could give you proof, but that's against the rules which I think is stupid.

    Banning the player is not a solution to this issue, If the exploit isn't fixed, that hacker will abuse it every single day which is what he has been doing for a couple of years.

  • I'm sure those @EA dont give a flying xxxx about its gamers , 2 years this has been going on same idiot crashing the server 3 times on EU servers tonight so i thought ide jump into an american server 30 mins later guess what same idiot different name , i know of 4 different names this person uses and what do EA do SFA , i get anxieties now when i game on BF i get 2/3s the way through map bang idiot crashes it , and nobody should have anxiety over a video game , you people @EA are allowing this to happen , you have a care of duty to all the people that have handed over money EAGAMES , we cant name n shame you want us to do the work , where is your flaming moderators to get on top of this , i will not give one red penny/cent til you sort this !!!

    Its impossible to get rid of server crasher. He has new account with new user name. So even if one gets banned, he is back with another one almost next day. Yesterday again, 2 hours lost - gained 0 xp. And even when he isnt crashing it by force he uses so many hacking commands - like yesterday where server cannot handle that and crashes by itself. 

    That person is obviously here to stay and only solution is not to play when he is online. He is to stuborn and he loves doing what he does. Even if his internet was disconnected he would find a way to play somewhere else. I saw his 7 different accounts in last 5 months, so if one gets banned another takes the spot. Only solution would be to fix exploit but we know EA is not supporting this game any more so thats it.

    @VeterinarMarioits about time that game companies ban IP addresses and get rid of cheaters once and for all , they might find that we would buy newer titles if they looked after the old aswell , and as for EA moderators who say they dont get paid but just pass on to dev teams that causes angst the community  , well they might not get paid but they get perks that us normal joes dont get , they are as bad as the greedy corporates who throw em a bone !!!

    @MajStonedKilla I even started talking to him a while back, hoped his actions would make EA fix its issue, yesterday he said there is one more guy that has that exploit and that he is crashing servers in silence (as spectator or not even joining game). And the known person considers me ok and he still crashes servers when Im online. So even if you are friendly with him most of the time you will get server crash. We cannot help ourselves. Only one who can is EA but they will never act unless this becomes an issue all the time, not just some part of day. Its sad, cause late night is only time when I can play the most. Now If I want to earn Ops packs I have to lose free time I could spend outside. If this continues Im just gonna stop playing, hackers are online in the morning ruining every match, and night we have server crashers. And EA does nothing.

    The only way to play BF1 is in community servers that have this trash blacklisted. EA/DICE will do nothing. BF1 has been infested with cheaters and exploiters for YEARS now. 

    Also, don't bother talking with such trash cheaters. Leave the server and join a community one (BOB, AMG, etc) or quit the game. That's the only solution until eventually BF1 is completely dead.

  • @DR_QQ008 Only problem is he can crash community ones too, I played Operations on 3 different community servers not to mention names cause I dont know if its allowed. He crashed them all, I was in bliss how finally community ops. And then boom darkness. He was often boasting in chat on official servers how he just crashed this and this servers (community ones also). I even said here that EA has to do something cause people on community pay money for server. Nothing. Those guys can crash server without even needing to join said server :/

    And again 1,5 hour lost for nothing. What is wrong with you people at EA?????? Why do we have to lose hours upon hours cause of one person, lose time for nothing?

    Eplain to me WHY does that person have more right than me??? Explain! Why can that person that we are saying for years now do these things, waste our precious free time and you dont do a thing???? Why, are we less worthy than him? You should be ashamed, you are supporting cheaters and hackers, we cant even say their name or WE will get banned. WE fair players, while they can literally * on us. Disgusting.

    He is worse of the worse, he comes on last sector after Ballrom on Argone on last wave, we played more than 1,5 Hours. 63 people lost more than 1,5 h for absulotely nothing. With your idiotic idea of erasing all points for Ops Battlepack if we dont finish it. It wasnt our fault, I had 50k points lost all for normal pack or Ops pack, got ZERO. I lost all my afternoon for scraps cause one guy that is protected by you made all my work null. One person ruins everything, has 5-6 accounts. So what, cause he paid for your game 5 times he can do this?????? We are all idiots???? We fair players are reason you can sell those battlepacks in first place cause game would be dead. And what do you do, you ignore us, and you are letting that person do what he wants. And if we say his name WE are banned We! Where is logic in that?

    @VeterinarMario I know the feeling. He did the same two days ago. He joined a server, started taunting us, then poof, server gone.
    Since the admins here don't think this is a major issue or they refuse to escalate it to the proper channels, I say lets find the email addresses of the current DICE admins and send them emails daily about this issue until it is resolved.
