After much voting and deliberation we are proud to announce both a new BF3 server and the new server configurations for the servers. Rush is now hardcore, hardcore conquest no longer has Op Metro in the map list, regular conquest is now Air Maps which is a normal mode server with fast respawn, instant vehicle respawn, 600 tickets, and 1 round each of Caspian Border, Operation Firestorm, and Kharg Island, the new server is 64 player Operation Metro Conquest which is a normal mode server with instant respawn and 1000 tickets. We hope you guys enjoy these new server set ups and let's get these servers full and popular!

Wait a minute... Hardcore Rush and Conquest? Awesome! Bleh Instant Respawn 1000 Ticket Metro is just a quick exp server... Not for me. Hopefully it gets swapped for a Hardcore Karkand / Vanilla Server when the time comes.

Yessssss this is a dream come through! 24/7 metro is the best! I can't wait for a 24/7 back to karkand conquest assault server though :D
 
just a suggestion, ban the use of RPG and M320 on the metro server and it will attract way more people.

ohh wow really ? but other servers have done it and remain constantly at 64/64 all day. I think kick people automatically that use a RPG etc. We could look into that, would make metro a much more balanced server. Right now its default Russian win everytime.
 
24/7 vanilla servers are the best, before our 24/7 metro server, there was only 1 24/7 metro conquest server and the queue's would get to [8] around 7pm. Alot of people wanted this server and this is a good step for eGO. I will be there recruiting as long as the server's up. We should look into a 24/7 1000k caspian instant vehicle spawn server as well.

You can make the rule and even kick and ban people for breaking it but if they decide to contest it and bring EA into it we could lose our server. That said I haven't read the most recent TOS but that's how it worked in BF2.

That is how it worked in BC2 also. I'll look into the new ToS once I get some time but first I must go nap.

Ranked Server Administrators:
If you are an administrator of a ranked Battlefield server (referred to below as a "Server Administrator"), you must also comply with the EA Online Terms and Conditions.
Server Administrators are in violation of the EA Online Terms and Conditions if they enforce server rules on ranked servers that prohibit or severely limit players from using any roles, kits, weapons, vehicles, or other features of the game while playing on their server. Examples of such rules that would violate the EA Online Terms and Conditions include:
  • Preventing players from being Commander or Squad Leaders
  • Preventing players from using certain vehicles such as jets, helicopters, or tanks
  • Running knife / pistol-only servers
  • Preventing players from using all commander assets (artillery, vehicle drop, UAV or scans). If using the Infantry-only server-side option, this should be clearly stated in the game's loading screen
  • Preventing players from using certain weapons or items (such as flash bangs or C4) or enforcing a "pistol only" or "knife only" server rule
Server Administrators may implement and enforce rules that result in minor changes to gameplay behavior or styles as long as these are clearly stated before a player starts playing on a server. These rules typically introduce minor or limited restrictions on how a certain aspect of the game can be used, but do not create or promote an environment that would allow abuse of the scoring/award system. Examples of such rules that are acceptable are:
  • Limiting movement of combat assets, such as Titans, Ships, Aircraft and Vehicles during game play ? Disallowing all aircraft for example is not acceptable.
  • Disallowing repeated main base camping/attacking of bases that cannot be captured. However, in such cases, attacking the base with reasonable intent to take out assets (artillery, command outpost, or radar) are acceptable.
  • Limiting the use of artillery or any other single commander asset to a particular region of the map.
Server Administrators will also violate the EA Online Terms and Conditions if they (i) use offensive server names, server art or clan tags; or (ii) encourage other players to violate the EA Online Terms and Conditions while in game.

Also thundr, Toast, and me were US and we were definitely winning against the RU. So it's not entirely biased toward RU just requires good teamwork.

Actually the ones that allow all weapons are a lot more common and stay full nearly all the time and as Vert stated its against ToS to do so.

EA may not agressively check it but I would rather be safe than sorry especially so we can stay on good terms with with developers. DICE employees do play on random servers and I have seen them around and sometimes enforce ToS. IT would be in the best interest for us to stay within their terms.

Also disallowing the use of RPG and M320 would seriously restrict certain tactics for combat. Especially capture point A in front of the russian spawn. You wouldnt be able to blow holes into the buildings to expose people sniping from the windows into russian spawn. Also there are some walls in the metro underground that can be blown open that helps to open up traffic or reveal camp spots.

Its something I dont agree with and think we should allow all weapons to be used so all tactics and work arounds will keep people on their toes. The RPGs and M320s do not determine who wins this map or give one side an advantage over the other. With good teamwork and people not resorting to camping and not rushing both sides have the potential to win the map. There have been times playing 24/7 metro hardcore with all weapons allowed that the US has won multiple times in a row by smoking out all 3 entrances and rushing and causing distractions at the others. All you need is 1 person to sneak past the russians at B and cap at A and you have yourself a multi front conflict.

Its not impossible and it doesnt impede getting kills with pistols or regular weapons. Getting kills with all manner of weapons is very easy on that map.

Is the 24/7 metro server hardcore or regular? If not is there chance it can become hardcore in the future?
