A: The reason is we use seeding to fill the server. This is a method common to many servers. Seeding aims to build up the game slowly by attracting Quick Match players while keeping the teams balanced, i.e 4v4 instead of 6v2. You can join at any time. More slots will be added to the server as more players join until we reach 64 players.

A: Yelling and abusing others doesn't win you any friends. Plus we want the game to be enjoyable to all players. Not just those who rant and rave. But others who just enjoy a chat and a bit of friendly banter while they play.

A: An admin can't be online 24/7. So we have set some rules to protect the server from obvious hackers. We have been careful to set the rules high enough to avoid innocent players being banned. In some rare cases people might still be banned for no good reason. Sorry if this happens to you but we have to protect the majority of players. You can appeal your ban on our forums.

Game Servers

Currently the Community has a Battlefield 3 server kindly paid for by Teknometer. Its a 64-slot server hosted by Multiplay.co.uk and located in their Amsterdam datacentre.

Battlefield 3

The aim of this server is to make it as fun and varied as possible. We won't have any crazy rules you must follow. We do ask you play the game in the spirit the developers intended. Meaning no exploiting, cheating or hacking. This server will use settings DICE recommends apart from those listed below to give you the Battlefield 3 experience you want without needing to hunt around for servers with standard settings.

  • IdleTimeout set to 900 seconds so you won't get kicked customizing your kits or making a coffee!

FAQ

Q: Why does the server sometimes show as having few player slots available, e.g 8/12 not 8/64?

A: The reason is we use seeding to fill the server. This is a method common to many servers. Seeding aims to build up the game slowly by attracting Quick Match players while keeping the teams balanced, i.e 4v4 instead of 6v2. You can join at any time. More slots will be added to the server as more players join until we reach 64 players.

Q: Why am I warned about my language. Its an 18+ game? A: Yelling and abusing others doesn't win you any friends. Plus we want the game to be enjoyable to all players. Not just those who rant and rave. But others who just enjoy a chat and a bit of friendly banter while they play.

Q: Why was I warned/banned for having a killing spree?

A: An admin can't be online 24/7. So we have set some rules to protect the server from obvious hackers. We have been careful to set the rules high enough to avoid innocent players being banned. In some rare cases people might still be banned for no good reason. Sorry if this happens to you but we have to protect the majority of players. You can appeal your ban on our forums.

Q: What commands can I use on the server?

A: Currently just 3; time - shows the current server time, nextmap - shows the next map that will be played, maplist Shows the current map cycle.

Q: Why is the map cycle or game mode different from when I joined?

A: We primarily run a Mixed Mode 64 player map cycle of Conquest 64, Conquest Assault 64 and Rush64. However we may change map cycle if fewer people are on or people have requested a particular game mode or map for that day.
