Quick Match and PlayerStart Count

[Zero]

We are having an issue where by the server isn't appearing to get 'Quick Match' traffic even though the server is fully stock.

I have a ticket in with GamingDeluxe, but for the moment, I have set 'roundStartPlayerCount' to 2 on both servers so you can at least get going instead of 'waiting for n players to join stuff.

Please give it a go and see if it works.

The guy at GamingDeluxe has the same setting and is still managing to get Quick Match players.!

GSP has also said a re-install could do the trick, so might try that later, though that would remove server from your faves.

Yeah 2 players thing is working.

Yeah 2 players thing is working.

Are you getting any more traffic?

Are you getting any more traffic?

I'd say no, but then it is before 10am...Darcy and I were there, Krit joined as well but no other traffic.

It really should not matter what time it is on release day.

I am happy to reinstall server if you want? Or maybe I should wait until I get back from work...

Excellent news about the server start count. I suppose I can stop scouring the internet for info about the seeding issue then for the time being...

It's not good news because quick match is still not working.

Well, I take it as good news that we don't have to hang around with 7 people anymore and can at least run around doing something.
I'm sure the other issue will be resolved soon.
I'll still look if I find a hint to what it might be.

I'd reinstall the server just now so we can get it going properly later.

Using the server browser in Battlelog a bit, there are hundreds of empty/low-pop server, don't you think it can be just coincidence?

Not when dice are involved no

Will reinstall at lunchtime and post back here when done

OK - I have completely reinstalled the server and restarted it.

I haven't changed anything - I have even left the default map rotation alone (just incase), so each CQ map will run 2 rounds.

This also means that the server will require 8 players, although if 'quick match' now starts to work, the server "should" fill up.

Please note that you will need to filter and favourite this server again as the servers id will have changed.

Please give it a go and report back pls.

I've just sat solo in the server for about half an hour while I was on the phone to EA support...not one other player joined in that time to get the server going.
