Default OZ Server Update

So we have PS3 Servers running right now in Sydney. Xbox 360 ones will come online, but may take a few days to happen. Sales are going up and I have placed an order to increase the initial capacity to try and do my best to keep you playing local. Thanks for sticking by me guys and like I said, I'll always fight for my community!

Every server around the world is full, once we have capacity it won't be an issue.

Awesome news Gordon, I hope that with sales that high, you guys can create more servers to avoid lag.

Are we ever going to be able to start private rooms with less than 16 people?

In addition to this, will the game always default to an Australian server? And will it be able to keep yanks and poms on their own servers so they're not taking up Aussie slots?

That's why ALLLLLLLL Xbox Live multiplayer games should have a in-game match browser.. it should be something that Microsoft force developers to include.

But I digress, cheers to DICE for sticking with fans and providing local servers for us, that's awesome news and greatly appreciated

Cheers, Shane

I'm a PS3 and 360 player - and I can tell you right now.

After playing Bad Company and BF1943 with lag, the experience on the Aussie server I just played on was 1,000,000,000 times better.

Came first with 530 and 23 kills whereas the next best player was 230 and 8 kills. It's what playing with lag does to you - skill!
