it's only been 7 months since "release," and now they start to put out a way for someone to call out their BS decisions, so long as you have premium and get to sign up.

and it's already full.

anybody got in?

EA: "hey guys we really listened to you over the past 7 months, so now we've created a place for you to voice your issues with the game! just buy premium and apply to join, and maybe we'll accept you!"

BF4 players: "wha...? we've been telling you these things for months, so instead of working on the game, you made us a place to tell you what we already told you?"

I don't know whether to laugh, cry, or be angered at the stupidity.

only selling clevernes

I've seen "pay for early access and help us build our game!" before quite a lot, but never with a AAA budget already released title.

I believe our friend from down under PMKevinRudd made it. I was too slow, as usual

As for the CTE, I say better late than never. If it helps solve any of the BF4 issues then it's a good step

My guess is they're only doing this because someone realized that Battlefront will be crap if they don't sort out what's wrong with Frostbite.

Did indeed, as for now there is nothing different between these servers and the normal ones but tonight they are apparently upping the tick rate for testing. Should be interesting to see how this turns out

I tried a minute ago and got in!
Doesn't seem to be full...

They've probably reopened the sign-up recently. When I checked a few hours ago it wasn't possible.

Probably just got overloaded so they had to stop for a while, what's new eh?

Got in as well.

It does seem almost too little too late for some of the people who have been shouting for them to "fix the game." If it means a better game for all though I'm willing to help out. Especially if they actually go through with this increase in tick rate. Honestly, I think that's the single biggest reason for the "netcode" problems everyone has.

Fix for explosion packs not being shootable sometimes
Fix for reducing damage mismatch between client/server
Fix for third person player orientation mismatch Character collision improvements Improvements for client side packet loss
Various server performance improvements
High Frequency/High Priority update (“Tickrate” improvements)
A new network update for high priority second to second gameplay (damage states, player position, projectiles, player stance etc).

This update is per client specific and updates an area around each player. Initially we will test running this update at 30hz for everyone. This update runs on top of the current update run in the game today as a complement. NOTE: This might cause problems for you (stalling, rubberbanding etc) if your internet connection can’t keep up – let us know in the forums
