Free-to-play based on teamplay and tactics.

Something else I would like to point out, is that we don't have to pick a PERMANENT arrangement for the server - just one that we like at this time, and that will help bring in pub players. We can always adapt and revise our server settings, map list, etc as we go along. We just need more GC players...

I say run back to karkand and Sharqi 24/7 and you willhave a happy server :). I will second this, with a slight twist - rotate a third map through the group. Wake one week, then Firestorm, then maybe Metro. Pick 3-4 of the more popular maps (especially vanilla maps) and rotate them through that 3rd...

I'm guilty as sin Plank and Ash for not participating more on our servers, but when I have the time late at night I like to play my favorite map of all time: Wake Island • Conquest in a full server without restrictions. Now that I found out why my game was constantly freezing on me; due to a factor...

Already up to 8 views, and only 1 response?

Come on, GC, you are better than this.

So, it has become obvious that we are not making the most of our two ranked servers. I spent a couple hours on the NA server with the help of several members of Up All Night to try to populate the server, and we never got past 8 people. This problem is not exclusive to the NA server, either - the EU...

My vote is for trimming it down to everyone playing/played/assigned in the current campaign.
Or trim out anyone who hasnt played BF3 in the last 4 weeks.

Seems like a good place to start for me.

We seem to have a very large number of inactive members on our official Battlelog platoon. I think we need to come up with a plan for thinning out some of the numbers here. Anyone actively playing in the campaign will automatically be kept, of course.

As seen again, putting the server on large Conquest does not fill it. It keeps it empty. Unless 8+ GCers are willing to actively play for several rounds. I'll leave it on CQ for the next 2 days in addition to today and see how many times it fills. Last time I tried that at Zait's suggestion, the re...

I really wish the GC NA server wasn't stuck on SDM so often. The rare times it actually starts to fill up, nobody is online to set it to Conquest.

The guys over at Up All Night [UAN] run some good servers. They have an all B2K map rotation 64p, 24/7 Karkand only 64p, and a 24/7 Metro 32p. The admins are usually on most evenings, and are some fun guys to play BF3 with. Some of the UAN guys are also interested in joining us for the campaign.

Saheed and BC both approved, along with Safinn, a friend of Matty.

a432 and Julafreak accepted to platoon. Two current unknowns: 1Saheed1 and BC10000.

I've been talking to some of the admins over at Up All Night, and a lot of their server crashes have been related to the admin tools being run on the server. Since I don't have admin rights on the NA server, I havent got a clue what we are running in comparison to UAN, but that might be part of our ...

Actually, I already have a Phenom II 965 en route. I have an Asus M2N32 Deluxe SLI Wireless, and the last BIOS update for it added Phenom II support, officially up to the 940. There's a 950+ page long thread on Overclocker.net of people with the same motherboard, and quite a few have gotten the 125w...

I have a quadcore I5-760 and it seems to have issues with 48+ players in B2K. Playable, but alot more stutter. Could be my 4 GB memory as its maxing out and battlelog is starting to whore memory. This game has so many coding issues that it's pathetic. The "enhanced destruction" is obvious...
