If your seeing high crash rates please do let us know it could be a side effect of the new patch or it could be someones found another way to crash the servers.

Either way we need to get the logs to DICE so they can investigate.

Updating my ticket with every blaze & crash.
That means: 3 or 4 times a day...

The stability is worse than server R3 from November 2011!!!

I don't think this is due R36, as the beta server also crashes/ blazes at exactly the same time as the R36 servers do. This beta has not been patched with the R36 crash countermeasures.
This looks like a deliberate attack with bufferoverflow or DDOS.

If this continues, this game is dead...

Switched one of our servers to BC2: Vietnam. That game is at least almost crash free.
If that one starts crashing as well, we surely can say this is an attack on certain IP's

So yeah, our bitches server just went down again.

Whether or not the issue lies with ddos attacks the Host ie Multiplay surely should be able to provide some kind of stable service. This is just stupid, we are seriously considering other providers now. One's that don't go down every few hours.

It's not only Multiplay. Some NFO servers, from a befriended admin, in the US also went down at exactly the same time.

This number one server in Japan went down 4 times today:
http://www.gametracker.com/server_in...221.119:25520/

Take a look at the graph. That server is hosted by INTERACTIVE3D.

Somebody is messing up servers.

its hit or miss with online support. you have some really good ones. then you have the total NOOB ones who suggest some of the funniest things.

mp: create a new profile... maybe that will help
me: how will creating a new profile stop it from crashing
mp: don't know but thats the only thing i can suggest
me: but if its a hardware problem, how will creating a new profile help?
mp: it won't.
me: uhh ok.

me: server has been crashing every 30 minutes- theres something serious going on!
mp: its ea/dice, its called blaze and theres nothing we can do.
me: i know what a blaze is, its not a blaze, its a crash.
mp: sorry, its EA DICE's fault. we will let them know.
me: lol

me: server still crashing!
mp: do you feel that we are sabotaging your server? do you think we are making you crash?
me: what? why would even suggest or ask your customers that??
mp: its EA/Dice's fault.

Just went down again. So if this is a BF3 wide issue how comes only certain servers go down. Our friends server hasn't been affected once.

2 of my servers went down again... One Crash / One Blaze

This is a BF3 wide issue. And I truly believe these are attacks on the gameservers or GSP networks.
All around the globe servers from different GSP's are dropping and yet some servers are being spared.

It does indeed appear that way. It seems like there may well be some sort of hack out there which can take down or at least cause a blaze on BF3 servers, we're trying to gather information on it so we can feedback to DICE, in the hope they can find a fix.

The more info we can gather on this the better.

Hi K,

I'm reporting every blaze or crash in my open ticket. Hope they'll find some way to counter this bull**** as it's really getting out of control.
