when seeing how the traffic increases through the last years... interesting and peak times are always when we want to enjoy a round bb after a nice day of work.... That´s why I want back the good old times where it was possible to host your own server on your own hardware Don´t know why I have to be depended to servers outside my country. Routing between my country and brazil is not as it should be and alone that costs me latency whilst playing....

we had community servers in Brazil, but the owner Goim has moved in February and the brazilian community don't know when the servers will come back He is the only one in the community who have Oki's permission to host a community server

well, that is a really sad story. So nobody in SA can play BattleBit with ping under 150ms because there is no possibility to get whitelisted??!?! @SgtOkiDoki you should do something against that. I would run a small server if getting whitelisted.....

The servers were down temporarily and now are back up. So no this is not true. And please don't ping devs directly. We have a community manager and staff to talk to and relay this kind of stuff.

well my ping at NA servers is under 150ms, but unfortunately isn't the same reality for everyone, some of them even struggle to play because they don't have a good internet connection

all good. Just don´t get it why it is that hard afford in 2024 creating own gameserver for having fun. It have been such good old time back in the end of the 90´s when there where all the possibilitys for running and modifying gameservers and developers gave the possibility for doing so. Having the resources and the fun running such things and not beeing allowed to doesn´t fit with the "gaming fun" sense.

Oh yeah I definitely get that, 100%. But do know, BattleBit is a game where people have most fun off of chaos with a lot of players on one map. If we get more community servers, the player base will be more split between servers, making it extremely challenging to fill up servers, especially for 254. Currently, the game already has more than enough community servers for the amount of players it has (you can see in server browser a lot of empty servers). Generally speaking (I know Brazil has issues very often), adding extra community servers with this player count has little to no benefit.

Got it. Mostly - well, one thing my friend: Those two servers in brasil only start the game when the queue is filled up with roundabout min 12 players . Lot of players join the server and leaving after some minutes because the round doesn´t start, what means that some days I (and others) have to wait for 1 or more hours before the game starts . Same then for the 2nd. spawning server. I gues one more 8v8 server won´t make the big deal for keeping players away from "the big chaos servers".

When we had Goim's community servers, there were many more Brazilian players playing Battlebit, the current bbhost servers are very bad, to say the least, packet loss every day, Sunday's gaming lost. The player base will continue to fall while you don't pay enough attention.

Jupp - that´s right! Best thing is - there are some people like me which want to increase fun for this game with self hosted servers- but it seems like the developers don´t want the community to help them out.... 🤨

The problem people from SA had at one point (from what I noticed back then in discussions revolving the servers in that region anyways) is that it was only frontline that was ever played, which would probably also factor into why they’re holding off on it (people want variety basically)

we had a 64 server with all the game modes but people still prefer playing at the frontline server the people who only want to play conquest kept complaining instead of having fun and the all-game modes server wasn't always empty

Yeah I remember there were always a small % of conq people complaining they couldn’t force everyone else to play conq, and now I noticed the region died out when it became conq loops, alongside the official being how it is (crashes + ends up being laggy because it doesn’t do a daily reset like the community server did iirc.) Kinda like how NA/EU is now, funnily enough Obligatory “wow people actually like playing different things? Who would have guessed?” but you and I already knew this angel And before anyone argues this isn’t the case - explain to me why we have numerous people from other regions willing to come to bobs solely to play domi/frontline despite the obvious disadvantage with ping, and having the option of playing in their own region on conq I get what the officials are supposed to do but they fall short due to lack of variety, and it shouldn’t shock anyone that playing waki conq/sandy inf conq on a loop isn’t fun to the average person

yep yesterday frontline dropped and packet loss was beating me hard i always forgot to turn on exitlag just to reduce my problem

😡 😡 😡 Okay.... same stupid topic again: Any chance to get a own server whitelisted? The argument that a new server will prevent players from playing on big ones is crap Is that a statement which @SgtOkiDoki agrees also or is it like some say that this game has to be kicked from the market??? Let the community choose game modes and size. Don´t care about progress - it´s more about fun. Just want to play tiny and not the big thing. What for ist that mode developed and published for if there is no possibility to get it running ;:_?😡 😡 😡
