I tried connecting this morning, but it just wouldn't load the server...

Then I tried connecting to any other random server on the list... same deal. WTF... Played for a couple hours last night.

Perhaps it's due to the general auth issues they are working out? (and that seem to affect every new battlefield game at first)

In other words, EA servers are make of fail at launch
They just always manage to ruin their good games with lame login servers.

I get that all the time - best thing you can do is join another server for a game or 2 the try join tpu again - Its a problem with EA's servers.

.:edit:.

& thats probably the most frustrating thing about BC2 - you can go through so many servers that partially empty but it still wont let you in until youve played a round or 2 on different servers so its a real gamble.

playing on the server wont cost you a thing. everyone is welcome. we have people donate and become members so they get a reserve slot and are guarenteed access.

I kicked people from our server last night. They rolled into the US spawn in Atacama Desert in a heavy tank. I dont think we have an official policy on that yet. I said "No spawn killing" and they blew me up so I kicked them. PB ban -> one round.

I dont have anything against people causing a ruckus in the spawn with C4 by disabling assets but heavy armor in the spawn is just something I don't put up with.

the LOD guys are good for camping at spawn on an empty server and then killing you as you enter the server and respawn.

supposed to be a major server patch update release today ive heard... maybe maybe not

the only time i've had armor in spawn is when i'm stealing it. how's that go?
i can steal. can't kill. but what if i'm attacked? do i leave spawn to defend?

i was actually wondering about that. as that is exactly how it happened.
i stole it, was driving away, was attacked - SHOT BACK, and they yelled spawn kill.

I don't know.. still a spawn kill IMO since you killed them in their spawn but if you were only trying to steal then its different. Sort of a gray area I guess. Maybe we should have an admin/reserved slot meeting to discuss what we consider to be douchebaggery.

In the end it will be up to whoever witnesses the even in question.

if they are being douches about it then kick them. generally if it happens only once and get blown up they wont do it again. if they are successful at it, it just encourages them and they continue. that is when the kick comes in handy. if you steal their tank in their base then you have every right to fire back as you roll out or whatever.

Eh, if teams would stay more balanced, I would think it would be more difficult to get that tank at the spawn point.

team balance is gonna be a pain in the ass until they work out the reserve slot issue. as members of the server it is up to us to change sides to balance things out.

I change when needed, unfortunately I will often have to switch teams initially to get on TPU's team and then it won't let me switch if there is a problem with balance. It's not detrimental to my well being in any way though, lawl. It'll get fixed eventually.

not only does it not balance it, but it prevents us from switching to balance it. obviously not all the time but it has happened enough that it is an issue...

So as far as vehicle stealing goes I think Easy is right.. if you're successful and rolling away while taking fire you have all the right to fire back (obviously). However, stealing a vehicle only to stay in the base is another story.

As for balance I try to keep things balance where I can. Usually this means playing against TPU players but it's for the best I think... I can sometimes completely balance the teams myself.

I banned a guy this morning who was disrespecting Myself, Scrizz, and Duck...just a warning in case he comes around here bitching up a storm. I won't post his name on the forums but those with admin powers can see him.

Can you name some of the stuff he was doing?

Maybe we should list the 10 commandments of douchebaggery.
