Starting around the 13th-15th, we saw a sharp increase in soldiers reporting that their stats, awards, and rank are not updating. This is under heavy investigation since, as you know, the ranking system is a central feature of the game.
------------------
Unfortunately (and honestly) I have to report that this will continue through the weekend. The good news is that the RSPs have really rallied to the cause and working with DICE, IGN, and our Battlefield Support teams, providing gigabytes upon gigabytes of server data to help get to the root of the issue.
On the stats server side, we're still seeing server stats being processed. This doesn't mean that resolving this is a lower priority, but it does mean that you may be able to try some servers you don't normally play on and receive stats while work on the issue continues.
Personally, I'd like to thank you all for your support of the game (and my fragile self). Everyone who has suggested some good mods to play, or made fun 'things to do while the stats are down' threads, or reported server information when I requested it has helped this community tremendously. This is a tough issue and I really appreciate everything you've done to help.
I'll check in this weekend to provide you with any updates.
------------------
Also, I wanted to let you know that we have an answer up about the stats outage (linked below). If you click the Notify Me… button in the answer, you’ll receive an update whenever new information is added.

Thank you again!

>>Does this mean the stats we are accruing during this problem period are lost, or will we get the stats when the problem is fixed?<<
Typically server issues do not cause stat loss, but we are watching that closely and will let you know exactly what will happen to the delayed stats as the investigation continues. I'm especially optimistic since we are seeing stats processed by the server even though users are not seeing updates.
~Violet
>>I have a contact at ea, an old college friend and he says that the main stats system has become corrupt.. The stats that are frozen are this way because its no longer possible to update due to damage. EA dont have any other records of the stats so they will all most likly be lost... this is why there is no word from EA.<<
I have not heard anything along those lines. Since the support teams are working so closely with this issue, I'm sure I would have heard if we had found something so definite. At this point the issue does not appear to be with the stats server since we are seeing stats processed. That is one of the reasons we are working with the RSPs to examine data coming from the game servers and investigate the entire stat reporting process in order to resolve this.
I'll keep you updated.

AND LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, i hope EVERYONES stats are reset becoz im bored of being a colonel, i have 600hrs game time and i think u need a minimum of 1100hrs game time or sumthing to rank up from colonel.

It's all a plot by EA. They shut down the stats server, act like they're trying to fix it ,and sit waiting for all the people who are renting ranked servers to stop... Then there's no stats system, or servers to get stats on and they can walk away, without any patching, fat wallets, and able to blame it all on some hacker of the stats system.
"Oh we really tried to fix the problem, but by the time we got it all figured out and worked out a solution the game was no longer financially viable."
This could be what will happend with bf2!

You can play anyway. But this issue with the stats updates have not been solved by EA yet. So you will not get the stat updatet yet.Hanzooon wrote:
Can someone tell me now for sure, Is the system working or still down so i can play ?
This is obviously not true. The stats are not up. The guy that wrote the main post and created this thread was just lucky and conected to a server wich the stat updates worked (1 of the 1% of all servers). And then he thought all wasFI-SCOTTY wrote:

You can delete your EA battlefield 2 account in the game. Do not logg into it. There should be another side then the logg in side directly when you starting the game. There you can recive already deleted accounts. And also delete accounts that you curently have. To make a new account, simply visit www.EA.com and sign up.

Theres a topic on here for which servers people have found that are working, but this is the only one I have been on, then at the end of the round BFHQ is instantly updated, and the points are tracked. Someone really ought to put that topic as a temp. sticky or in big letters so all those sniffing round the forums for news can carry on playing as they did until their own fave servers are fixed.
Thanks Chullster.
No one that i am aware of. Try some EA servers with Strike at Karkand or Road to Jalalabad and someone should probably work.

i do agree that we can in fact get those stats again but think of it this way.... i paid for bf like all of you and a downloaded all the patches i put time into the game...and also i have a caped account thus i pay to play too..... its like buying a car...you pay for petrol and all that but have no service plan....indiandas wrote:
Personally, I think its dumb ppl cry over a few days of lost stats and stuff. If it helps, just pretend that we're all "taking a break". I am pretty positive that EA is going to fix this problem, so its not really a huge deal if some people dont play for a week. But i guess for you people out there that do nothing but play Battlefield, let this be a lesson that there is more to life than videogames...And even if you missed awards/medals (like myself), its not like you cant ever get them again. Just be persistent and keep trying for the one you been goin for.
But yea, I'll be honest it is kind of annoying. In fact it sucks ass. haha
The stats make the game and we did pay.... if you go on numbers alone you are talking about millions of bf2 players each paid for their game thus a service is set up for us..... now where is the support...
we all can get those stats again but when and where should we play....and who can guarantee the same thing wont happen next week/month...

tho that server no doubt will b e getting hammered now
Me and my friends have just tested alot of servers. 24/7 Dalian plant as you said is working perfect and are giving stats. Some of the EA servers give stats but some of them actully dont. So that all EA servers should give stats is just a rumor. Play on 24/7 dalian plant if you want sure score! The "IP" was linked by Parastumber higher up in this thread. 8.2.121.23.
If you dont like Dalian. Test some EA servers. The most of the working one is empty but if you enter one, peoples will come and come. Me and two of my friends entered a EA server and after 10 minutes we was suddenly over 20 peoples on it. So look around. 1% of all servers are not infeccted by this issue. So please try with the EA servers in first hand. Or els conect to the first one you see. It could be one of the 1% that still give stats. At the moment, all we can do is whait untill EA fix this issue. Me and my friends hopes this can help you a little and also hoping that the stats can run smoothly again later today. Also, that re-patching 1.4.1 should work is also just a rumor. I am also apologizeing for my bad english.

I agree with Joebattistam. All i want is the Stat system to work again. The points from the latest days is not that important even if we may have played alot. All we can do is whait untill EA have taken care of this particular issue. The stat system is the speciell thing with the game and that is what we want. We want a goal. Badges/Ribbons and the score. I use to check around all the stats in the BFHQ. It is awesome. So as i said, lets just whait for EA to fix this.
