Hi All, It seems the only way we are going to get a response is to spam them on their forum, see conversation below with EA support. Get everyone you know to post a complaint and lets hope for the best. info: Your approximate wait time is 23 minute. |
- So EA South Africa has no Facebook page:

The African support has been changed to the Asian Pacific Community instead:

- The Twitter account for EA South Africa has not been updated since the 20th of September, NOT EVEN TO PROMOTE BATTLEFIELD1 (most recent post was for Fifa 2017).

General Manager for EA South Africa is: Grant Oliver
Marketing manager for EA South Africa is: Ralph Spinks
It really seems like EA Africa is not active at all. Why Twitter EA South Africa is not posting anything regarding to Battlefield 1 is because they already know that the multiplayer experience for African Community will be at 200 Ping by default, hence that is not a respectable and a misleading marketing scheme for them to advertise to the public with the result of having customers regretting the purchase. If they are quite they can not be accountable for what they haven't said and what they haven't promised!

I am sick and tired of this.
EA, we cannot play with these high latencies! It is aggravating!
I will have to demand a refund if SA servers are not put in soon as there was no notice whatsoever that there will not be any multiplayer servers in our country!

Reading all the threads I feel stupid, should have looked before I bought the game. Playing with a ping of 200 is painful. Played the other battlefields now this, R900 down the drain. Tip from me, I also play over watch with blizzard and that seems ok. But yes, I suppose we in Africa, wait, I just need to stroke the Lion next to me before he bites me. But yes EA South Africa u would not care in any case u have our money. I told some1 to buy the game, he will this weekend, guess what I will tell him before week end 🙂

Here is the forum for rental servers for BF1:
Not really the the same questions, but @Braddock512 has promised that answers for rental servers will be posted on that link. People can add questions they need answered for renting servers.

So anyone who is interested can go post a +1 on this forum (Battlefield Forum):
https://forums.battlefield.com/en-us/discussion/49950/africa-servers#latestIts like an unofficial petition. If you want to, please comment on there as well so that we can at least show interest from SA's side for server hosting here.

I have processed my refund. If EA is not going to give us local servers or even answer us on the damn Answer HQ forums, then I am not going to support them.
