Battlefield 3 Ranked Server Provider Only for PC

DICE has confirmed that Battlefield 3 will only be on Ranked Server Provider, which means no home server or 3rd party companies.

Mikael Kalms from DICE posted that this will be easier for DICE and EA to provide support:

“The game server machines themselves will be run by a number of Ranked Server Provider (RSP) companies,”

“We do not allow other companies to run game servers, or for other people to run game servers from home.

“We try to strike a balance where there are game servers available across the globe, while still keeping the number of RSPs at a level where we can offer reasonable support to each individual company. Since we prefer to work with larger hosting companies, and we focus on countries where we have a larger player base, there will not be game servers available in every country on the planet.”

As for the list of RSP, it is not confirmed or listed out yet. We will just need to wait a little more time till they get it all straighten out. Plus, with the new accusation of Origin being a “Spyware”, this should be the least of your worries as a PC Battlefield 3 gamer.
