Last night, Me and My clan were playing BF2 for 6 hours (doesnt usually happen for this long), and we all got nothing on ours Stats. Afterwards, we switched to internode for an hour, and my stats said I'd only gained 494 points. WTF? 6 Hours of play, and only 490 points? I shouldve gotten at least 1500.

Anyone else having trouble with Gamearena?

in 360 minutes you want to get at least 1500 points? meaning you have a spm of over 4? i doubt that .

you have a spm 1.3 and if you take 360 times 1.3 actually 494 is just your average

I never played on gamearena again after i didn't get an award that i was supposed to - so annoying. I've never had a problem with internode

I never had problems with Gamearena. Then again I play for fun and not the stats so I probably wouldn't notice. I do find Gamearena takes a while to update stats to BFHQ sometimes, sometimes up to 24hours. Took me 3 days and about 5 rankups to Gunnery Sergeant at like 8500 points for me to finally login and get my unlocks.

Actually gamearena is a piece of shit. Tkers and noobs everywhere. Was killed 7 times(one was arty) before I got off the carrier on wake.

Node all the way.

Edit: XTRA is really good too.

I've had problems also with certain servers saying they're ranked servers only to find out that I didn't get the stats.

Does it take awhile for some servers to get the stats updated or what?

Yes, gamearena does suck when it comes to stat adding. Problem is, it is intermittent - and usually misses recording when you either have a long session or (invariably) when you have just got an elusive award. I have had to redo veteran SF medic, support, engineer on other servers after getting them on Gamearena. Let alone missing having a 150 pt (based on 2x) commander round not counted on an SF round.

Stick with Internode for AU servers or XTRA.

Nothing wrong with gamearena. It was the weekend and thus all stat servers are slow to update. Ive never missed any points or badges and their the servers i play on all the time. There also the best performing ones, unless u like to go play on node with battlerecorder lagging the system out and recording yur every move.

Game arena from what I’ve herd has always had problems with the stats from day one (Read the EA forums) node is the best at least their rules are quite clear and follow the ROE setup by EA for ranked servers unlike GA (do what you want basically)
Once I got 11 different awards and medals in a round and they never showed up
GA is only ok if you feel the need to noob or spawn kill in an uncap in a vehicle
so i agree if you want to go after the medels and ribbons go Node or Xtra
and as for nodes lag with the battlerecorder ive never seen it must be your comp Smiley LOL
and as for recording yur every move ive seen your fellow clan mates stat padding before
is that why might not like the recorder
hey didnt you get your stats reset what was it for ????

GameArena is fine. Just wait for your stats to appear, it just may take a while - 12 hours in some cases. Other servers have been taking their time to update for me also, so I don't think it's a GameArena problem.

... and don't get me started on the Internode vs GameArena argument!

Every time I've played on internode, regardless of what server/map, I've had horrible chuggy lag spikes.

Started enough for you <:? Gamearena 2/3 Inf and 12 MEC maps are my homes
