Xbox – What do percentages mean on a BF3 server description

battlefield-3xbox-360xbox-live

I am a bit behind the curve, and just started playing BF3. I played BFBC2, and liked it, and enjoy what I see so far in BF3.

The new server setup confuses me though. Since it appears that there are no more 'standard' servers (think BC2 or even most other games on the xbox like Halo or CoD), you can see a list of all of these 'public' shared servers, with odd descriptions.

One thing I noticed a lot through them was people saying '500% on [map name]'. I was very unsure of what this meant.

I was in an awesome match last night, and after dying once, I was kicked. I had no clue what for. Because I had just selected 'quick match' I was unsure of any server rules. I would like to understand what hosts are meaning by their description.

It means 500% increase in tickets per round. It essentially makes the rounds last longer because there are more tickets. See this for more details on how tickets work: http://www.battlefield.com/uk/battlefield3/blog/battlefield-3-battleblog-11
