Any takers for a 64 slot server? 5 years ago


Due to selling my business I now have a good year to play the infamous BF4. I have the funds to fully support a 64 slot server however without some good internet friends its pointless.

It's simple:

  1. Seige of Shangui 24/7 (My Personal Favourite Map)
  2. No Levolution, 20 players minimum for Apache
  3. Anyone can join the clan, anyone that does gets priority slots free.

Independent Ban System which allows the community vote to decide on who is cheating/banned. (I will code/build it)

I have discord with about 5 other players along side a former background in web and software development so a community can be setup/created.

If your interested your interested if your not, its dead in the water. One thing is to be sure. This will be a community based server and the community will be able to decide who stays and who goes based on votes.

Possible exploited BF4 server? 5 years ago


As many of you would have seen my recent topic on "How does the levolution work" and the server "TDS" it seems EA BF4 description of "Official" status states that:

"Official servers have strict default settings that are tailored for new players. E.g. an official server that hosts the Defuse game mode must have the max-player-limit set to 10 players."

What does this mean?

  1. Server owners of Official servers can not kick, ban or move players;
  2. 3rd party anti-cheat plugins* will not kick, ban or move players;
  3. Server owners have limited capabilities of customizing their server;

Servers:
http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/servers/show/pc/e275a572-8935-4e92-bbec-4588cee0115f/2-TDS-NO-LEVOLUTION-SIEGE-OF-SHANGHAI-60Hz-HARDCORE/
http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/servers/show/pc/e7b744b6-12e5-4162-b625-ba5cc5f90402/1-TDS-NO-LEVOLUTION-SIEGE-OF-SHANGHAI-60Hz-NORMAL/

Yet users are being reported to have been kicked/banned. I can see that "Fair Fight" is also off on an "Official Server". How can this server be listed as "Official" if they are indeed able to kick users from the server?

This also means with fair fight disabled that cheats can be used by the server operators and can go undetected without an issue unless otherwise reported. This doesn't mean they do, but they can. This is not an official server.

This is NOT fair to people who wish to purchase a 64 slot server as they will be listed as just "RANKED" and will not get the advantage with an "OFFICIAL" status as these pair of servers do clearly the entire thing is "need to know" for a reason.

I've received messages stating in simple terms that "anyone asking questions will be banned/have been banned" from the TDS community discord channel.

I dug a little deeper. A quick Google reveals that a bunch of users have collaborated to release the official BF4 server files and an emulator to get it working correctly. As far as I can tell they have also managed to get hold of a valid "ProviderID" which authorises to the server to post stats back to the "Battlelog" website. Some users reported it working, others have not been so successful.

This would explain how TDS are able to automatically kick/ban users on an "Official" server when a user strikes the (C) tower pillars on the popular map Siege of Shanghai. Users are then left confused to how they was kicked from an "Official Server"

Update***

I've been in touch with EA support who has refereed me directly to punk buster which deals with BF4 Server Providers. I've emailed them explaining the situation and will now await confirmation. I will update this post.

How is the "No Levolution" rule work? 5 years ago


Hello all.

How is the "No Levolution" rule work on the popular "=TDS= NO LEVOLUTION | SIEGE OF SHANGHAI | 60Hz"

This is a popular server and one of the reasons is to prevent the C flag levolution being activated. Im looking to setup a 64 slot server and would very much like to have this rule added.

At the moment, If someone even shoots C pillows the server automatically kills them with "KILLED FOR TOWER" in chat. How are they doing this? They have also announced on their discord channel that C will soon be indestructible.

A quick Google revealed this post...

https://bf4db.com/forum/thread/kick-on-officail-server-1368

Can anyone shed some light as the developers don't seem to want to share the secret.
