Stats server aren't really down, everyone still has his rank, points and badges...

Gained points just aren't submitted to the stats server atm...

EA are gunna be busy for teh next 10 days with a focus group and conference in the Bahamas on the stats prob.
They suggest we all play 2142/bucket of poo during the downtime so they can justify their outrageous development costs on a product nobody wanted.

just kiddn'.

Well, personally, I'd rather see them have a crash(again) like we had before with the server being down for sometime... Then at least they know where they screwed up...  probably wouldn't have taken/is taking a week to fix..........

I'm curious I know my stats stopped logging around the 7th of June or so, but I played some after that and I had 1 round on the 19th log my stats but nothing before or after that thus far.  This is quite an anomaly.

NOW what do you think happened with the stats problem? Equipment fault, EA personel, Punkbuster, and or Hacker/virus. For some reason I am blaming Punk buster. Ever since I have gotten vista which I know was my first mistake punk busters has screwed with gameplay "invalid OS" of you need to run as "administrator" I think they are slacking on their product. I couldn't get my stats updated when I first put on vista until I called an EA rep and walked me through all the BS!

i highly doubt that this is punkbusters fault. it would be way tooooo convinient for dice to pass the blame to someone else but let's face it, it's their fault

why do people honestly think that EA's mentality is " hey lets piss thousands of people off in the hopes they will buy another game from us!"

I heard it's weevils causing the problem.

DAMN YOU WEEVILS!!!!!!!

Or something.

Still it makes the case for Quake Wars / Getting a life slightly stronger.

Lol, yeh, it's not like they ever really wanted this to happen that's for sure. But it's still sad the don't give a shit enough to keep us all posted - especially considering just how many faithful BFers there are around. A company of their size can never justify more than a weeks outtage of such a massive service without notifying it's users and or keeping them better informed.

Here we all are sniffing out the boards coz EA has dropped the ball and haven't the guts and or respect to fess up.

the Weevils are definitely involved somehow, they're always up to no good.

If this was already posted, sorry.
I can't be bothered reading through all the crap.

This is from a clan friend.

I phoned EA Denmark today asking what was wrong, and apparently they dont know what is wrong, because IGN & Gamespy have the stats main servers, all EA can do is mail them and tell them to fix it asap. So its not EA that you have to blame on this 1, Contact Gamespy and complain to them instead.

Cool thanks.
I'm a bit simple and only remember paying EA for my games so I guess I hold them responsible for not delivering on any expected services.

Maybe I could start a Weevil proof gaming company and sub contract all the services out to hacks! Then, when I've got myself a massive captive audience I could concentrate on buying up all the competition and run the show remotely from a server/toilet block in India.

If this were true wouldn't your in-game points still be accumulating? I don't know about you guys but my in-game points haven't budged since the 14th.

This is just absurd. People need to stop saying this. 2142 is crap compared to BF2
