Hi,
maybe I get an answer. I have hosted Bad Company 2 servers for a quite long time now and wondered why nobody seems to play on them anymore. I noticed that they do not connect to the plasma backend anymore. I haven’t changed anything on my side, there is no blocked port / ip which could cause this. Hence other game servers are working fine.
Servers are named “battlefield.onl”. Is there any way to get contact to an admin to check for that?

Weird thing also is that the serverid.dat was empty. I have uploaded a correct one again. Did change nothing. Also updated the dinput8.dll (which seems to be latest updated in 2014) but still no luck.
Edit: server is not IP banned. It at first glance seemd so. Will keep you updated once I sorted everything out
