DICE: "No Plans for Reserved Slots"

[SnakeXT]

Interesting read on the BF3 PC forum


If you are a server owner/operator, you might be interested to know that DICE have stated via their twitter feed:

"We currently do not have plans for reserved slots, but keep an eye on the Battlelog News for updates. ^JT"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Obviously, this is a deal breaker for many clans/communities whose members currently have to stand in line to play on the hardware they are paying for.

I encourage any clan/community operators who want/need to provide their members with a reserved slot to jump on the "Get Satisfaction" thread regarding this issue, and vote it up:

What a joke EA

[RPGforYOU]

First clan community's buy the game, then they buy the server. And then they can't get reserved slots for VIP access?
Mmh, the word we are looking for is -> STUPID?!

Can't you just kick people to get in?

[MightyDWC]

Don't forget that alot of GSP's are charging an extra fee per slot with BF3 because of something they are getting charged for from EA/Dice. So clans and communities are paying extra, but can't get reserved slots? WOW

Can't you just kick people to get in?

An active admin can be on I think, but can you imagine sitting there all day kicking people to let a member in?

[C4b4nossi]

Every full member can kick via ProCon to get onto a server - But reserved slots are the much easier solution.

Kicking players will result in them being disgruntled and less likely to come to the servers again though.

I don't like this approach. Regular players should be awarded, not kicked out like scum.

I for one never kick players to open a space for myself i'm more than happy to wait now there is a queue system.
