Hi Support,
The servers in South Africa seem not to be working/filling with players. We also tried created a custom game server, but no dice.
Do you perhaps know if there is something greater at fault?
This is happening now on the 31st March, but yesterday 30 March there was a message that server was undergoing maintenance, and all the players were kicked?
Are there available staff to check out the SA servers please.
Kind regards
Yes good money spent and Dice screws us again, I want a refund for every cent spent on BF5. They are collapsing as a studio and now cut off the servers. The Battlefield 1 servers (over100) are still up and nobody has used these servers since Battlefield 5 was launched. If you want to cut cost shut the BF1 servers down and leave the active BF5 servers up. But no the brainless fools will rather see a country of loyal supporters who have supported them through thick and thin - all the TTK issues, bugs, bad game balance and so on stop playing and never purchasing again. Who in his right mind plays with a ping of 250 (Even with Fibre). Do they think all of Africa is illiterate dumb and uneducated?. Maybe they need some South African Data scientists and quants who can do proper analysis and can actually use machine learning to help their day team out. (looks like they are not so educated after all).
If they want us to play in Europe they must change the prioritisation when it comes to packages and give us back 150ms like in the old days. Let's see how the European players * then. USA and Europe only screw the rest of the world. They must remember that one of the last untapped markets is Africa.
Also stopped all the Origin subs as I will no longer be playing, purchasing or downloading any EA/Dice products.
I hope that the DICE/EA social distancing gets just as good as mine has become. Well done DIce and may you rest in peace.
