| Hi Everyone, We are beginning to roll out Battlefield 3 server version R5 patch. All servers will be restarted shortly as the system automatically applies the server patch to your server. Please be advised this patch also contains a brand new version of punkbuster which will require ALL game clients to be fully up to date to avoid any issues with getting kicked from the server. If you have not already, it is advised you visit http://evenbalance.com/index.php?page=pbsetup.php and update your client side punkbuster as soon as possible. Enjoy!

| From EA
"Here is a short list of the most critical bugs in Server R5, which are currently not covered in the manual:
* The game server is not able to run any gamemodes in up-to-64 players mode. Here is the current number of max players: Conquest - 32 players Conquest64 - 64 players Rush - 32 players Squad Rush - 8 players Squad Deathmatch - 16 players Team Deathmatch - 24 players This will be changed in future server releases.
* There have been a lot of questions regarding join queues and reserved slots. The join queue, and reserved slots with them, are currently disabled while we are weeding out other problems with game servers. Both will be enabled in the future.
* There are problems with the game server kicking players willfully. The message "You were kicked by an administrator" is a catch-all phrase - it means that the game server disconnected you, for whatever reason (idle timeout, PB kick, real admin kick, ...). We are working to improve in each of the areas, and to get more descriptive error messaging in place.
Now there are many smaller problems present as well. The above is the list of the most frequently encountered ones. " | |

| Hi Guys, A new server version has now been released for Battlefield 3, version R6! We will be rolling out the patch to all Battlefield 3 game servers shortly. Please understand that your server will be automatically restarted when the patch is applied. If you have any questions or concerns, please submit a support ticket via http://portal.hypernia.com.Enjoy! Hypernia Hosting Corp. www.Hypernia.comChange Log: -Fix for crashes usually occurring during level switches. Server providers may see a little bit of memory leakage instead in this situation -Game servers should no longer quit in some situations where the online backend servers are down. Server will reconnect to the backend once it's up again -Fix for ghost servers which didn't accept connections -Kick reasons should better match situations where they are issued. This will help battlelog provide more accurate information to the player -Connection fixes to avoid players sometimes being rejected while joining the game server on one of the last slots -Security updates -Improved server logging | |

| Hi Everyone, We are rolling out a quick config patch to all servers to disable the join queue feature. The join queue was enabled as part of the R7 patch, however shortly after it has been found that it does not work correctly and is causing issues with the EA/DICE backend. Please understand your server will be automatically restarted by our system to apply the changes. Hypernia Hosting Corp. www.hypernia.com | |

| Flashlight and IRNV are coming "in a later patch" No idea when.
As much as I want those fixed there's server side stuff I feel we need more.
Free roaming before the round starts is probably the most talked about issue on any server admin forums. The fact they decided to stop stat padding by forcing servers to sit idle until 4 players join is ludicrous.
At least i can set the idle time out values again to 10 minutes with R10.... | |

| Stat padding will always happen, their stats won't save them on the battlefield though.

| Hi Everyone, EA/DICE has released Battlefield R15 server update! You may apply this update to your server at any time by choosing “Game Updates” in your web control panel and then “Install” on the R15 server patch. At this time the server patch is optional, however if all testing goes well EA/DICE will require all servers to be updated to it tomorrow and at which time we will force it on all non-updated servers. This patch is to help reduce the amount of crashing seen since the introduction of the R12/R14 server patches. Enjoy! Hypernia Hosting Corp. www.hypernia.com | |
