Fragging Frogs Battlefield 3 server

Ithink its not working

As far as I can tell, in order for the "reserved slot" gimmick to work...The Rcon tool has to be and stay active.

Maybe it will enable the slot reserve if someone advances to the next map

I was in RCON, I'm on the reserve slot list and it still would not let me in. Had to boot someone to make room.

Hmmm, that's odd......

Same thing happened to me. I don't think it's working.

Edit: Confirmed broken on DICE's end. We need to wait for DICE to fix it.

Question for everyone - do you prefer the server set at 32 or 64 players? Having spent time on both sizes I find that I prefer 32 player maps but that's just me. Also it seems the server is more attractive to pubbers at 32 players and easier to get started from empty on game nights.

What does everyone else think?

I prefer 64 obviously but like I have said before it will be hard to fill a 64 slot server with our small Froggy group. It may not be that 32 is more attractive it could be that people want to play on a full server. They don't want to be #20 in a 64 slot server but being #20 in a 32 slot server is attractive because it is closer to being full.
I suggest an experiment... Start with 32 slot and when it gets full, increase the size by 4 until we hit 44 then increase the map size and continue to increase the player slot count by 4 until we 64.

p.s. I don't think that many of us like the chat window. Is it possible to reduce the frequency of the server messages... they are slightly more annoying than informative.
BC2's chat window wasn't so... ugly.

I'll decrease the frequency on message. About upping player counts. Only issue is does any of that require a server restart? B/c if it does and we keep re-starting server people will be pissed.

No, they don't require a restart. Map rotation changes apply at the start of the next round. Player count is either immediate or apply at the start of the next round.

Which is why I will not be playing much except on our server, can't take the cheating bullshyte.

[frogmeat69]

I can't seem to find the server on battlelog, and it vanished out of my favorites, wha's up with that?

[zetachi]

re-starting it see if it fixes it.

That did it.

[Lenny]

That did it.

After each server restart we need to remember to click 'Apply' on the 2 player round start setting and then advance to the next round to pick up the change.

How can I cheat? I'm horrible! :P

In my experience, my team always sucks :/ not that I don't suck too, but of course they're a number of degrees worse.
