I think we can safely say it's you who is just faaabulous.

the browser is a little slow, but it's workable. is your game up to date?

Is it just me or do half of the filters for the server browser not work at all? The Populated/Not Ful/small, medium, large maps options seem to do nothing.

the filters seem to work for me, I have to avoid entering anything into the fields at the top of the browser otherwise I get no results until I restart the game

if you use the fields at the top, they'll stay in place until you erase them amd refresh your server page.

Has the patch actually improved the browser?

Last time I used it, even after flitering out full games and empty games, they were still displayed.

So, it's safe to say you're faaabulous, but the broswer is fucked also.

My filters do nothing too. No matter how much i poke it, it still shows me all the full and empty games. Bloody annoying.

I have also, on occasion, broked it totally so that it was claiming there were no servers online at all. This was achieved through excessive prodding. The only way I could solve it was to restart the game.

Another amusing bug I have is that every time i close the game, the sound runs for a few seconds, with the computer working, but slowly. There is then the standard windows error "bong!" twice. Then everything returns to normal.

Tis a most strange game.

:above: this. It's definetly workable, but it isn't easy to use or responsive.

TIP: Click once on a server and you'll get the real info.

I checked this again and it definately doesn't work, the only way to get the list of servers back is to restart the game. Not that it matters, if you know it doesn't work dont do it :ninja:

So, I'm having problems connecting to the account server and it's making the game and everything just hang, and have to manually restart my computer. It's pissin' me off. :x

Same problem here, from a glance at bf2 forums it looks like the login server is down.
