This Admin is SUPER PISSED OFF After the patch!

Damn EA.... the patch has "Hard Coded" in some server features for
all Ranked Servers that admins can't change

Ticket Ratio = Forced to 100% (Games are WAY Too short now!)

Players needed to start a game:
6 for 16 slot server
8 for 24 slot server
10 for 32 slot server
10 for 64 slot server

This means if you have 8 or 9 people in your 36 player server the GAME WONT START
So people just leave. What a STUPID ASSED IDEA THIS IS

I really believe that there are actual retards working at EA

I think this is to balance the ranking system.
High ticket ratio = more chance on medals on such servers.
Few people = likey to be a farm server with eachother just killing/rezzing to farm points.

That indeed sucks.

Setting the game tickets at 180% is not a long game at all. In fact the current
"Hard Coded" setting of 100% makes for a very, very short game

EA is going about this the wrong way. I don't have a fix, but making
these 2 changes is not the answer by any means and won't change
the stats exploiters at all

I imagine that eventually ranked servers are going to be going down the toilet now. The damned moronic cheaters and exploiters need to realize that higher ranks don't get you prestige, money or laid.

I hate playing on servers that only have 100% tickets. Just as I seem to get into a groove, the game ends.

That will pale into significance if these reports of servers bleeding memory and crashing faster than an Alzheimer's sufferer flying an airliner are true.

I hope this is only for ranked and not unranked. It would truly suck if this applied to unranked. There is nothing like setting the tickets to 1000% on a good map with 64 people and having each round last for over an hour. Brings back FH memories.

They actually mentioned this in many of the pre-release videos. the idea is to stop poeple killing and healing over and over again. Also to stop some gaining 1000 points in a two man server.

How many ranked servers are empty though very very very few. there all full and very busy well ours are at least.
