Where did the servers go?
« on: July 08, 2010, 03:29:41 PM »
For a couple of months, the most populated server I was able to find to play on was BOSS:Cracked.

Then, as requested by the crash-debugging devs, I spent the last month playing on the MWLL Official Server #1.

But today, I can't see either of these in the public server list.     The most populated game now is in Russia, and has a ping of 400+, so isn't a realistic option.

Are there other well-populated servers that I can play on?  If so, what do I need to do to be able to see these in the server list?

All advice appreciated, thanks.

I haven't seen BOSS in a while.  Lately the TLL and official servers have been the most populated when I get on.

This is around the "inactive" time after patch releases.  So the activity level is about right.  I'll also add some of the bugs introduced from 031 have people waiting for the 032 release.

I had class last night else i would have been on.

There is little room for inventiveness when selecting a server.  We all see the same list. There have always been servers with at least 16 people on them when I have looked

I cannot fix the lag issues with 0.3.1 so i don't play at all except on low populated servers occasionally just to check settings tweaks. I am hoping the next hot fix will help, if not then I must wait till the wars port and try then. 0.2.0 was far better for me.

Due to the low activity I don't have any loyalty to any certain server. After the list loads up I filter the server list by pop and go with the most active. It is rare for me that I dont see at least 12 people on a server during my normal play time. That being anywhere between 2000-0300 EST.

MWLL Debug Server has been up and should be in the list. Do you filter empty servers? (Yes, people haven't been playing on it. Unpopular settings?)

I find that if I jump into an empty server it usually only takes about 15 minutes and the thing is completely full. Sometimes I am just going in to do some testing and the next thing I know I am in a full fledged firefight. Give it a try. The occupied servers jump to the top of the list if they are sorted by players. it will not take long for people to find you. No one needs to go to bed without their MWLL fix!

yeah joining a server by yourself usally leads to server being full before the end of the hour. Or at least some epic 2v2 3v3, or 4v4 games
