Just another example in the long, long, LONG list of proof that EA just doesn't care about customer service.  They screwed up every patch they released, their "help desk" is anything but, and they've shown their complete indifference to performance.  All they care about is squeezing every dime they can from sales, server rentals, etc, which would be fine if they actually delivered.  The expansion pack and forced 1.12 patch is an absolutely perfect example of that:  no benefit or improvements from the patch for players without SF yet everyone is effectively forced to patch to drive the SF sales.  They still haven't fixed the game itself in many respects, yet they got that expansion pack out the door within 4 months of launch.  This latest login problem is just another in a very long list.

ok smartass, why dont you go and fix it for them. i mean it must be soooooooo easy anyone but EA can do it so i elect you. i bet all you need to do is plug it back in. so please take your super high iq and fix it so we can ply.

If you have an error of connection when you are trying to log on to your account try to update manually punkbuster.
It worked for me.

The BFHQ page takes 5 mins to load.

My account has reset to private.

The stats don't even want to update.




Looks like I wont be playing for a while...

This happened to me a few weeks ago.  It took about a day, but my stats came back.  It's happening to me again today.  I cannot log into the account server.  It really pisses me off.

Well, from an enterprise level, I can see that problems occur, however what is EA's SLA (service level agreement) time frame?? If they don't have an SLA of 4 to 8 hours for system wide outages, maybe the company I work for should offer them our services :-) . At most this is just an annoyance, we can't play. People should take this time to learn to fly in single player mod, so as not to kill 6 ppl by rolling the BH over durning take off, or taking off the runway and crashing 10 seconds later, consuming the time it take to respawn the chopper or plane, then TKing to get it back. oh well.... and btw... i wish that they would turn the power of the "newb tube" UP!!! this way the ppl who can't aim it and don't understand the dynamics behind a 40mm projectile shoot it at their feet, or less then 15m from them selves and freaking die everytime... i hate the n00b tube with a passion due to the morons who can aim and end up getting 25+ kills per round cause of a buggy weapon. </rant> Just my thoughts.

Same here, I played sf for the first time this morning on a ranked server and I had my regular unlocks but I was a private, do you start over like that?

trashy. i understand that servers need maintainance, and that sometimes they go down. fine, shit happens. if it's planned maintainance, then EA needs to let us know ahead of time as a basic courtesy to paying customers. if it's an unforeseen crash, then EA needs to update their website immediately, letting us know what the problem is and when we can expect to logon again. it's basic customer service, and EA fails miserably at it. the most frustrating thing is that there is NOTHING we can do to make the situation better. the only thing we can do is stop playing bf2, which nobody wants. and even if we did, there would be enough people left that EA wouldn't give two shits.

Im just glad i didnt buy SF. this is what happens when ur game is powered by gamespy. it almost made me not buy it.

Edit: I probally should have followed my first instinct and not bought it.
