BATTLEFIELD RULES OF CONDUCT[/B];125228] Server Administrators are in violation of the
EA Online Terms and Conditions if they enforce server rules on ranked servers that prohibit or severely
limit players from using any roles, kits, weapons, vehicles, or other features of the game while playing on their server. Examples of such rules that would violate the
EA Online Terms and Conditions include:
- Preventing players from being Commander or Squad Leaders
- Preventing players from using certain vehicles such as jets, helicopters, or tanks
- Running knife / pistol-only servers
- Preventing players from using all commander assets (artillery, vehicle drop, UAV or scans). If using the Infantry-only server-side option, this should be clearly stated in the game's loading screen
- Preventing players from using certain weapons or items (such as flash bangs or C4) or enforcing a "pistol only" or "knife only" server rule
Server Administrators may implement and enforce rules that result in minor changes to gameplay behavior or styles as long as these are clearly stated before a player starts playing on a server.
These rules typically introduce minor or limited restrictions on how a certain aspect of the game can be used, but do not create or promote an environment that would allow abuse of the scoring/award system. Examples of such rules that are acceptable are:
- Limiting movement of combat assets, such as Titans, Ships, Aircraft and Vehicles during game play – Disallowing all aircraft for example is not acceptable.
- Disallowing repeated main base camping/attacking of bases that cannot be captured. However, in such cases, attacking the base with reasonable intent to take out assets (artillery, command outpost, or radar) are acceptable.
- Limiting the use of artillery or any other single commander asset to a particular region of the map.
Server Administrators will also violate the
EA Online Terms and Conditions if they (i) use offensive server names, server art or clan tags; or (ii) encourage other players to violate the
EA Online Terms and Conditions while in game.
