There is alot of talk in the community in South Africa. There is a friendly tournament that has to be put on hold because there is no rentable local servers. After the may update netcode tweaks the European servers are still not playable for south africans, and since its the only region we can rent servers in there in nothing we can do but wait. Generally the latency players get on European servers ranges from 190 to 300 , if there is no local servers coming atleast increase the penalty limit to 300 ping for south africans on European servers.

My guess is BF1 will be the last time we have the option to rent servers. EA already took away something that worked and gave us a POS RSP that really doesn't work plus they stall on updating (months) when things could get fixed in days. I just see them making it so bad that we won't ask for dedicated servers again..

Just give them another 9 months.
But again @Braddock512 and @Striterax your comments here will be most welcome...
I hope we can get some official word any time soon.
Battlefield 1 needs serious support to help grow the brand. We have assisted with videos about the condition of our servers and also been promoting a lot of Battlefield 1 and 4 content on our facebook group..Battlefield RSA.
