I know in BF3 we used to have a 'no vehicles' server rule when teams were small, so I wanted to ask if we had similar rule on our BF4 server, we decided to allow vehicles in smaller team sizes or whether that was one of the things we lost under EA's change of things we can control?
There hasn't been a "no vehicle" rule since BF:BC2, we didn't have one in BF3.
Since DICE have set the minimum number of players allowed to four, and the generally high amount of damage dealt by mines, C4, RPG etc. a rule hasn't been required. Also, with the map-vote plugin, if we have only four players, we tend to vote for a Team DeathMatch or Small Conquest map. Self policing really.
Sorry I didn't see your question earlier.
