caliban55 1 Posted June 14, 2017 Do/will we have the option to apply for community hosted servers to be ranked (match statistics will contribute to global leaderboard, rank progression)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Locklear 214 Posted June 15, 2017 There are no plans for community-hosted servers to allow gathering xp/currency for security reasons. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caliban55 1 Posted June 15, 2017 Thank you for the clarification Locklear. I pretty much expected this and I can understand the security reasoning behind it. From a community point of view though (at least for us), this makes hosting a community server and devoting high performance server resources for an Argo server more or less pointless. Helping Bohemia expand the server network structure would only have been an option, if there was chance to use a player ranking. I wouldn't have minded white listed missions/server settings, or IP binding. This way, the only use of a community hosted server would be for practise/training reasons and in my opinion that is not worth, if the same can be archieved with official servers. But thanks for the open response . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jigsaw77 0 Posted June 25, 2017 You have to change this, otherwise clans will not play in Argo because they can not play on their servers. Security has nothing to do with it. ---------------------------------- https://prsclan.com.pl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know for 1 - Many members of my clan and community will be and have been playing this regardless of our ability to host a server on our hardware. As long as we have the ability to host custom servers, regardless of ranked or otherwise, for things like comp matches or scrims. Then sweet! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2Lt. M. Singer 3 Posted July 11, 2017 Clans can host a Server with the in game option, most clans have a dedicated server for other games, and if they have a dedi box, then another game is no real issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RSF TheCapulet 59 Posted July 17, 2017 Is there any chance the security issues might be addressed at a later point sometime, or is it just off the table permanently? Couldn't there just be an authentication system that connects to the required stat servers, and either monitors the local server through BE to keep them accountable, or possibly even take control of the local server itself to prevent execution of anything past game-file missions and benign BE commands?
