BF4 servers

Thanks for that Lias.... I will quite happily remove Playtech from my suppliers list if that shit about Paul is correct.

Wow.....

what a douche.

So that explains the whole middle of the night kidnapping of ON3 forums huh.

I don't have an account with IPONZ, when did he register ON3?

Neither do I, I don't need to login to see that link? But 24th March 2010

[Clin]

IPONZ is asking me to log in with RealMe™ to see the info.

Spoiler :

I was just curious as to whether he held the IP rights beforehand or simply registered late last year to force a shutdown. Stink one either way, although I don't know the full story.



So yeah. Getosome/NZ BF4 servers would be lovely I'm sure, but the game is still basically unplayable for many people.
My inspiration wanes =(

[Speakman]

Is there a missing background story as to why shit went tits up with Playtech? Cause if we are meant to keep away from them, that pretty much leaves CL...

[Lias]

Also FWIW, If you've been around in the NZ IT world for awhile you may remember a wholesaler called "TMC".. Who while not quite as dodgy as say Edge/KTX were hardly a bastion of great quality products or great support..

To quote the Playtech Website:

"Formed in 2005 as the retail arm of a distribution and local PC assembly established in 1991"

&

"Copyright 2013 TMC Computer Ltd. T/A PlayTech."

http://www.business.govt.nz/companies/app/ui/pages/companies/519930
Founded in 1991, owned by Pei-ling Ko KAO & Tien-ho KAO of 41 Gails Drive, Okura Rd2, Albany, Auckland

Almost certainly relatives (Parents?) of Paul KAO

Speakman: I suspect we'll never known given the way noone who's in a position to know is talking. I've heard mutterings but absolute hearsay that it's basically all fallout from XLAN. I've heard that XLAN wasn't the large profit making venture Paul thought it would be. I've heard mutterings that there was a fallout between Playtech & Arsey (unsure if/how related), and I believe Arsey is a former employee of Playtech, again unsure how interrelated those things maybe.

Daddyclin: Just checked, get that from home too. My work IP is a tertiary provider so perhaps whitelisted. Unsure.

That's my department, and I'm working hard on it. If you have me on Facebook, I'll happily chat to you about things.

Just a note guys, we're really happy that what happened to ON3 took place. You have 5 very driven individuals who have always worked well as a team despite the strange way we all came together. We are all working hard on our various allocated areas of Get Some to make this site and related an awesome set up. We are well advanced on many elements, and you'll love what the year will be bringing.

My offer from last year still stands... can't remember who I made it too

I retract my previous comment, didn't realise there was so much bad blood between Playtech and the community.


The 3 Growler B's, count me in.

disappionting to see the NZ community can't get together and play nicely....in regards to getting servers.

Top work to everyone who fought that shit storm for the betterment of E-Sports NZ.

Also, Computer Lounge lives on as the undisputed _best_. :B

I think it's fair to say that the old Iconz (>on3 >getsome) community members are fiercely loyal to those that are making our lives more enjoyable by running the show. So as long as we are well informed as to who are the community supporters, the community will support the supporters!

I dont think if we even worked together it would change much in regard to BF4.


We have the EA contract for NZ, they just currently aren't supporting running servers in this region.


If that ever changes we will be right there doing whatever we can to run them.

Do EA give a reason for not allowing Servers in NZ??

or do they think like most Americans that NZ is a suburb of sydney ?

[han16]

They are just worried if we had amazing latency we would become too annoying with RPG vs infantry

[Growler]

hahaha was a blast last night mate.

I am so addicted to rockets! Broke top 20 in the world!

[Codex]

Would definitely be good to see some GS bf4 servers

Really want a city maps server D:
