Bad Company Authorized Hosters Already Selected

[pesultra]

Apparently they have already been selected, has anyone heard anything from EA that they have been selected?

 

And do you think the rest of us will have a chance at getting a license, with maybe hosting beta servers

[Derek]

Where is the source "they are already selected" ?

 

On a side note EA needs to get there head out of you know what and start offering the chance to get a licence to the up and coming gams server providers.

there are a lot of GSP's on the list, more than i expected to see!

and where is the list...

[R|S GoNz0]

emailed to the RSP's

[dumdum1974]

Nice

[agentpr24]

Like Derek said, where is that list?

[dumdum1974]

Well Derek EA is not one who is selecting trusted partners for BFBC2 so for all of you this is DICE in this case , this is what EA say DICE is one who will directly deal with trusted partners.

 

@R|S GoNz0 what kind of list you are talkin where it is m8?

[dimitrifrom31]

this monopolistic situation is indeed sick.

Thats bs to GSP but thats even more bs to players who dont really have a choice for their host and have to pay insane prices for their game server, prices that have no justifications at all regarding ressources used.

[pesultra]

The question is will unranked be possible, from van dykes statement, it seems there might not be,

[dimitrifrom31]

unranked is meaningless anyway, teams need ranked servers to recruit and survive, the ranked partners selection should just be open to much more hosts with only conditions to be legit company and not sharing files.

[R|S GoNz0]

its a mailing list the boss is on, they announced it on there. amazed as a nobody we have never heard from in the UK got on it so go figure

[pesultra]

can someone paste the list

[trancemode]

Most likely they will use the previous ranked providers.

 

And besides EA is the publisher I believe Dice chooses the list or rsp

[lpgservers]

Face it, there isn't anything that can be done. Move on unfortunately.

FYI..

 

 

There are a few of newcomers on that list! Not sure how they got chosen but you will see new Faces to the RSP list!

I don't see anyone different other then nfoservers and they have been around for as long as anyone.

 

some old companies:

 

artofwar

branzone

gameservers

nfoservers

hypernia

myis

 

at least thats what I gathered from the server browser.

[HGN-Daniel]

You got the server browser working?

[Jaggl]

yeah there are some new GSP on that list :=) We are not new but we are on the list....

[Derek]

alot easier to be on the list if you are not in north amercia not saying you shouldn't be.

[dumdum1974]

Hosters.at ,how come you are new? As I can remember you guys had BF2 ranked servers also right?

 

Anyway it is realy funny what they are doing with license I have seen some of Autorised partners list clicked on the link to take a look at website ,some of them looks like they have only forum its almoste like that ,this is what pissing me off investment was 10$ with template and they got license, one of hosters is still on the list not going to name it but I am 100% sure they were giving full acess to ranked files for (BF2) because I had server there and I got acess to all files I was able to download them...so I dont think all of them should be on that list,however probably there is no much to do about it.

[jbiloh]

Branzone got it? Wow that's suprising to me. I thought they were on a bit of a downward path.

Once you are a ranked provider you will always be one. (more or less)

[Feltz]

Thats not exactly correct Derek. They didnt honor BF2 Ranked providers for BF 2142 and they so far are not honoring BF2 Ranked Providers for Bad Company 2. From what ive seen so far.

[Defcon|Rich]

Trust me, being a ranked provider isn't all it's cracked up to be. We were in the original BF2 group providing ranked servers and after less then 6 months decided it's all BS. Let someone else be EA's lapdogs..
