DICE: Most Battlefield 3 Technical Issues Dealt With

October 31, 2011

DICE claims that a majority of the technical issues that plagued Battlefield 3 last week have been dealt with. Last week users reported significant issues trying to connect to online games on Xbox Live, as well as some early authentication problems for PC gamers thanks to EA’s Origin servers. DICE promises that it "will not rest" until everything works as intended.

"We are happy to report that PS3 and PC players experienced server stability all weekend, and Xbox 360 servers are at 95 per cent and climbing," an EA spokesperson told Kotaku. "We've turned a corner. A small percentage of people are experiencing intermittent volatility which we are addressing. We believe that the major issues are behind us, but our online teams will not be happy until we're at 100 per cent. We continue to work on solving for each issue."

The unnamed spokesperson also explained why the Xbox 360 version of the game has had so much trouble since its launch.

"There are a number of different factors impacting server connectivity on Xbox 360. It is a particularly complex server architecture and we continue to work with Microsoft to improve connectivity. We are gamers, too, and understand how frustrating it is not to be able to play the game without interruption.”

"The game is spectacularly popular," the spokesperson added. "With such huge interest in the game, demand outstripped even our best expectations coming out of the beta. This is an evolving process that we are committed to improving."

We hope everything is fixed and players are finally enjoying the game without any hassles.

I don't think anyone proof reads.  I see bad grammar and typos in nearly every post.  Hell, even CNN and other "real" news sites have tons of mistakes nowadays.

Re: DICE: Most Battlefield 3 Technical Issues Deal With

Well posts are fine to be incoherent but the site really needs to at least read what it posts. 0_o
