    I was thinking of turning off the killcam so you could use that time to configure your loadout better.

    Thoughts?

    Off is fine. With scope glare you can easily find snipers.

    Well, the killcam is off, but you don't get more time on the loadout menu. You just sit there and watch your dead body instead. Hopefully we'll see a patch for that. A large majority of the community for BF3 seems to dislike the killcam as well.

    You only need a PC able to run one of the tools below to manage a BF3 server. We're evaluating all options as they come out of the development phase now. Some of the popular ones are;

    Procon
    BF3 Command Center

    Procon has more power, and you can leave a procon session open on one machine elsewhere and you'll then be granted all othe procon plugin benefits. I.E. in game admin, server messages, etc.

    So yes, if you leave procon running, and have the in game admin setup and an admin defined in procon. You could kick a player while in game.

    I.E.
    I'm logged into procon, and playing in BF3 under the account tied to my procon admin.
    Player asshat is TK'ing and being a general bore to the game.

    @kick asshat

    And it's that simple.

    Server is up to date. This will match the client update that is released today as well. Here is a battlelog link with a very healthy list of tweaks and fixes.

    Doesn't matter, update borked their auth servers and a whole bunch of other stuff; hell, it says I never bought Karkand and keeps taking me to the purchase page.

    Fun stuff.

    Now says I have the game, but won't finish the final 500k of the update so I can play...because the AUTH servers won't function. FUN.

    Yes, the servers have already been updated 4 times since Karkland, so it's good to see the hustle, but it'd be great to just get in and game.

    Totally agree with that.

    Added the Metaban plugin - tested and pings were good after install. It's live.

    Also added a plugin to adapt the server to the number of players for better population. It will also message you when players are joining, ask you to stay around and get the server going, etc. It should work well. 90% of the time when I quick match I'm greeted by this plugin, so it must do something right.

    So that's why it was at 8 player ... gotcha
  • boasistboasist Troy
    Close Quarters is loaded and ready to go.

    Procon will be updated shortly, and then we'll finally have proper reserved slots.

    So then we'll be able to give priority to VIP (server specified players, premium players, and normal.

    GAH! Won't be able to get CQ until I get back to Tallahassee in about 3 weeks, but once I do, its on mofos
  • boasistboasist Troy
    Awesome, I set up the server now with some CQ maps for today so I can check them out.
