You think thats bad? lol i'am old enough that i was running on sims and processors at 90mhz  with windows 1.3 or somthing like that, its been a while
Probably Windows 3.1. If you had a 90MHz machine, it had to be a Pentium, which didn't come out til after 3.1 and 3.11 where on the market for a while. My first was a Pentium 75 with Win 3.11, all my buds were jealous cuz they were still on 486s. Oh yeah.
ha, i've got a 25mhz i486 sitting torn apart in my room right now. A whopping 4 megabytes of ram in that beast, running atop Windows 3.1 on a 129 megabyte Maxtor hard drive.
tats quite a beast of a machine u got there

I read the forums here and a few other places.

Lot's of opinions but I don't think anyone knows except EA, and they're not telling !

I liked the idea someone posted a few posts back.

Rather than advertising Tampon they should be giving us at least a message saying "WE KNOW".

Since I'm a capitalist Yank I have to believe they will be back.  As mentioned EA makes plenty of money off the servers, they're not going to want to lose that income.

I just find it very frustrating that EA isn't telling us what the problem is even on their OWN forums!

For a company as large as they are it's unforgivable that this has gone on for over a week now.

I just love the way the above message from EA understates things like, "which is affecting several players" and "during this brief period" ... these people display such arrogance when dealing with a powerful repeat purchase group like us! It's funny how EA thinks it's the future of gaming when really it's just like a big elephant in the jungle- everytime it moves things get busted up!  No info = no respect.

I also wish they would keep is informed how far they are on their repairs...

Like the BF2s.com site owner did some time ago.

For example (I do not know about the stat server architecture, just guessing):
*Day 0: Stats are down
*Day 1: We are aware of the stats being down and are searching for reason...
*Day 2: Reason found: 2 hard drives corrupted, approx. 200,000 player accounts affected, trying to restore with backups...
*Day 4: Stats-master server is up and running again with backups from June 14th, waiting for the slave servers to apply changes...
*Day 6: Stats are completely synced again, have fun playing...

You would think that they would just go to some backup tape that they made the day or two prior to this entire issue and restore the server, but then again.... who knows what they are doing right now anyways....

Ya know I just started this hole gaming thing. Just built this computer this year from mostly old parts. Started with Far Cry. Played on line for a while. Then another friend turned me onto this game. Have any other games been phased out?

Why couldn't our stats be held on our computers and not a server. If there is stats padding then what's the use? (I may not understand stats padding). Seems this wasn't thought out very well.

Im not sure its the server. It players. I went on a server of a friend who is getting his stats recorded, but I didn't get mine, in fact it says I haven't had a game since June 7th.

So I think this 200,000 includes me.

P.S. Everyone on Bf2s.com who is posting here, lets not get too upset about this whole thing, as getting angry isn't going to make EA/Gamespy sort this out any quicker. Plenty of people have hassled them, all we can do it wait and hope.

Afterall, we have come to expect this sort of thing anyway, so whats new?

Summer break shouldn't affect a professional outfit that runs a live gaming business.
They're all out on the jetskis and 4x4's we bought them!
I hope EA monitors this an other reputable/related sites... although I highly doubt it.

Because there's just nothing better to do but record the stats of how many people sign.

[edit]
Should point out I'm most likely NOT actually sending them that petition, it's just to see how many people sign as afterall a petition wouldn't actually get anything done.

With all respect to "fubar" a member of the BF2Player.com forum here is the latest response from Violet who "seems" to be responding on behalf of EA.
Dont flame me if you dont like what you read.


Here's the latest news from  Violet.


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.
------------------

I previously asked you for server information, and that was incredibly helpful. IGN and our teams are reviewing *huge* amounts of data from the RSPs to pinpoint the issue. We have found that it is not the stats server itself as we have seen normal processing for a large number of soldiers. So we are now digging deeper into the data and servers that report to the stats server to follow the issue down to the source and, ultimately, get the rest of you and your servers working the way they should.
------------------

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.

http://support. ea.com/cgi-bin/ea.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php? p_faqid=14853
------------------

I appreciate your patience as we work to resolve this issue and I'll provide updates in this main post as they are available. I'm leaving this thread open for your ideas and comments, but please keep it as civil and on topic as possible.

Thank you again!
