Hey mitch, did you try investigate the DLC server issue? Well, its more of a bad map issue. You see, everyone plays hindsight when it comes on, but when its over it goes to infilitration, and everyone quits, usually 3 or 4 people survive to the end, play through the other maps with all of them going and some new ones going, then when its hindsight again, everyone comes back. I think  it might be beneficial to make a hinsight server. Thanks mitch.

I have seen the very same thing,  more so when Infiltration shows up. 

I still haven't seen the Euro DLC server for some time now,  I wanna play some hindsight !

never a sole in con quest. also wats the diff between ranked and unranked? also i find that hitting the refresh button often brings up more servers, prob because people dop out of full ones and the y show back up. 

The EU servers seem to fluctuate everyday. One day theres two of them, the next theres none (like now)

3 months ago, there were no server problems whatsoever...

US servers only have 1-2 available servers to play in and they are near topped out. This makes it real hard to get a party of 4-10 players together in a KAOS server. Is there a list of server location by the number?

Still have NAT troubles with my router...stupid thing. But there was only one Kaos server shown to me tonight: Kaos 2501 Rotation.

I think that guy was on acid or flintstones vitamins.

Come on Kaos, Mitch, Whoever. You are not providing enough servers for the players that are on everyday. Weekend server selection is a joke. I see one Kaos server up most of the day. WTF? There were atleast 12 private servers for SolarFarm alone earlier. Come on! 16 player servers are garbage that nobody really wants to play but what choice do we have. Whoever is hosting your "Kaos" servers is dropping the ball as well as you for letting it happen. This is gettin ridiculous. There are still 3 Conquer servers not doing anything. Nobody  is on them. Get a clue. You had it figured out for what like a week. Now we are back to where we were. Wake up! There are a ton of people that feel just like me. Fix this problem. Stop giving us lip service. Stop passing on our issues to somebody else and actually look into it yourself. Obviously nothing is getting accomplished by your current way of doing things. I will look forward to hearing an answer.

No ranked servers at all tonight, 3 Conquest (player match) servers. Joined 2 of them and was unable to get others to play besides the three others in my party chat.

I was showing 1 player match frontlines server, rotation and always had 48-50 and when I joined it said it was full. We got fustrated and changed games.

I tried to lg on several times through the whole weekend and for the 1st time ever, could not find 1 single KAOS server to join, eventually after hours the server 2501 showed briefly with 48/50 players. I just dont get what is happening.... cant somebody do something to switch the servers back on. Please. Mitch are you there? ALBONGO

I agree with everything Johnny had  to say. The weekends are a joke. I have been trying to play all weekend with no servers up. The server selection was great a couple of weeks ago when we all complained last time. Please fix these problems, dont fix something to shut us up then two weeks later let it go back to the way it was before. You have a very dedicated fan base dont let that fall apart.

tried to find a server all evening . not even 1 on anything , plenty of player hosted but not one dedicated.
Shame, i really love this game. The sad fact is I am unable to play it unless "the" server happens to be up which on a weekend seems to be impossible.

Why would any gamer in their right mind sit there hitting refresh in the hopes of a game? No matter how much he liked it. Its so frustrating.

NAT settings all fine and open. Location UK . ISP sky

I do , but your right it is really annoying. I just cant understand why Kaos thought it would be a good idea for the servers to vanish when full.

I cant find any 32 50 player matches also I have a problem killing people I unload a clip into them and they just wont die  nat is ok u.s

I tried last night and jumped on a private server for a spell, but that gets boring after awhile.  After that I dusted off my unplayed COD: WAW and had a decent time.  There were 114,000 people playing. No lag. Tons of servers.  Playability wise Frontlines has the COD series beat, but right now I'm feeling like giving up the fight.

got into some private matches this weekend...gotta love lag...nothing like shooting your rifle at the ground and the bullet impact flashes a few seconds later...good times...and 8 whole people on solar farm is a treat too

Ya this is gaaaaaay im tired of begging!!! If they ever fix the issues u'll you know where to find me playing Galaga... HA

U know where 2 find me

I was AFK much of the holiday weekend (in the U.S.) but I passed on the alert.

The servers had some issues this weekend but were restarted earlier today and should be available.

Please let me know if you are still having issues finding servers and please include the time/date of the issue(s), the names of any servers you were having issues with, and your location.

I've passed on the feedback re the server configurations (including the polls we posted) which we will be discussing further this week. Will keep you posted.

in the real miilitary we aim for whats called center mass, this allows for the greatest chance of incapacitation, so you dont really need a head shot, bf seems to take that into account

So nobody from your company actually checks on things or plays the game and makes sure that things are working correctly? Jesus that doesn't sound idiotic to you? Hire me on to inform whoever needs to know when the servers are down. You don't even have to pay me a dime. Seems to me that you need someone that actually plays this game to keep an eye on it for you. This current system you are using is an epic failure. You are losing your loyal fans with these recent events. We are going on over 3 months now where things are going downhill fast. Come on Mitch its time for a change.

StiffJohnny you really need to lighten up. There are others here on this forum who have been here ever since the demo to this game was out. You, I recall, only have showed up ever since the servers have been screwy. You should be quite grateful Mitch is here keeping us in the loop. There are not many developers that come on these forums to do such a thing, even on their own company forums.

I'm not pleased with the server issues either and if anything at all, might be a department issue. Maybe Mitch needs to travel to the other side of town to visit the server people for all I know. They're working on it, that's why they've put up polls and are asking for what your configurations are. If they didn't care they wouldn't be here in the first place. Take a chill pill non-believer.

 I like kaos, I think thier interest in this gaming community is genuine, so I won't join in on those reindeer games of bashing them......server isssues are welll.....server issues and not a direct reflection  of the company itself...servers can be problematic at best.....having said that, I will instead blame Bush......love ya kaos

Has anyone seen the Euro DLC server,  I haven't seen it in weeks now.

I am sure they have staff members or "other" members keeping them informed of what is going on inside the game... I bet they (KAOS) wishes they had enough time to play and enjoy their product with the community.

Not to me, people are always going to be upset with something, no matter how you change it.

1) Kaos has a thread in here and on their website dedicated to this issue. They do what 90% of the game industry does not do: They interact with the community and provide a solution to most out needs and wants.

2) Maybe they already have figures inside the community helping.....

I think StiffJohnnyP has the right to say what ever he wants.  Passivity and an "Aw shucks" attitude never gets anything done.  Keep that in mind. 

I do agree that the forums have been useful for being able to communicate with members of Kaos and I know that they are trying to rectify the situation, BUT this has gone on for a long time now whereas last March there was never an issue for finding games.
