What's the deal with THREE HUNDRED official EA Europe servers that have come up this week, i mean come on, as if it aint hard enough to fill a server with this STUPID player limit to start a game, now EA go shag us all by agreeing to 300 of their own official servers to go online, way to kill a clan server i say !!!

Maybe cause EA are acting on old info?
When the game came out, before every kid in the world sold their souls to get a BF2 server, there weren't enuff serverslots. Unfortunatly you cant just make 3000+ player slots appear out of thin air in a week or so. That's why, now that the servers are up and running, the situation looks rather different then it did when it was decided to increase the number of public ranked slots.

Well we just cancelled our 30 man server because no bugger is joining since the new EA ones came online, Multiplay is about to lose a bucket load of cash when everyone else starts to cancel servers too.

Never had a problem with our server tbh. If you have it on a decent map rotation (karkand Only :p: ) it should stay pretty full

infact our servers had players on for every minute of the last 7 days.

It was Karkand 24/7 Ranked, so there goes that little theory.

feh, dont know why yours is hardly full then, as karkand only seems stupidly popular to me, hence upgrading to 32 Players on renewal.

but feh nm

For the record those servers have been up for well over a month now and will be being reduced ( according to EA )

Maybe that why people arent coming on your server ?

TBH i dont go on clan servers cos alot of them get upset if you start to get high scores and then strart saying you are spawn raping or some other childish whinge.

And to get your server full lie it been said lots of times before you need a clan that has a few members to join cos who would join a server knowing they might have to wait for more people to join before there efforts are rewarded.

well i can agree i run a 32 ranked server called soulstalkers.clan and we where full on 16 so much we decided to go up a level to 32 nice at first full all the time and even i had to kick someone to get on LOL.
then ea brought out more servers and BANG now my server is empty all the time ur lucky if i get 3 on and that just the clan members whats left of them(thanks ea)so i will be going over to cod2 i think by the way

how long does it take to swap games over or do i have to wait till my next payment?

our server (DGI) is always full!!!!! 20 people max with a full map rotation. Normally its our clan vs the world but its always full.

we have LOTS of non clan regulars on the server!!!
