Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Servers - Disconnection Issues

The new server patches (upto R6 at this point), have yet to address any of the problems which is causing the most trouble and seem more of a bug them self as the server has to be stopped and updated to bring the game uptodate, giving just more downtime. For a game that certainly has so much to give, its been hampered with such major server bugs.

EA sent a tweet about servers causing problems earlier in the morning, stating that "EA servers are currently down stopping login to a number of EA games. EA is investigating and will be back online as soon as possible."

This was only a few days after the servers had previously been taken down on Sunday evening. Despite coming back up this afternoon, there will also be planned down time tomorrow morning at 8 a.m. GMT, with no time yet stated as to when the servers will come back after that.

It's not been a great launch for EA and Dice. We had plenty of problems playing over the weekend and it hasn't exactly been perfect since the 'fix' was issued either. Even on servers we know have been updated there still seemed to be disconnection issues and the server list still takes about 3 minutes to load up, complete with incorrect information about ping and player numbers.

Let's hope this 'maintenance' period fixes some of those issues.
