    EA Maintenance, now with extra added hardware

    This just in from the BF Blog:

    Tomorrow, 12th March, and Saturday, 13th March at 8:00GMT/9:00 CET:12:00 (midnight) PST, EA will take the servers down, this time we will come up with even more hardware with more capacity to handle all the BFBC2 traffic. Once the maintenance is complete you will experience an improvement to your online experience.



    This will be extended maintenance to allow the new hardware to be installed and affect all three platforms (PC, PS3 and Xbox 360).



    Since launch a week ago, BFBC2 has already put EA servers through the following stress:

    • The 4 different soldier types have gathered a score of more than 34 Billion.
    • There's been more than 400M kills made.
    • 1.3M roadkills
    • Squads and Teams have assisted each other to 6.2 Billion points.



    Now we are adding more capacity to let you smash those numbers multiple times over in the weeks to come.

    I hope this means the server browser finishes refreshing on the same day it starts.

                      Constantly upgrading the rodents may be a shortsighted solution

                        It's cool.



                        He'll save us again.

                        In other news:
                        From http://veteran.battlefield.com/
                        "We're updating the Veteran's program.
                        The Veteran's website will be unavailable during the update."

                        Maybe they'll actually fix it completely?
