Team Fortress 2 server browser....broke?

Recommended Posts

I've noticed over the last 6-8 months that the TF2 server browser just doesn't seem to work.  Most of the time I just use my favourites, but occassionaly I try to find a Lotus Clan server that I don't play on regularly and its been getting increasingly difficult to the point now where whenever I search I always get the "There are no internet games listed on the master server that pass your filter settings". 

 

Maybe I missed a meeting or something but is anyone else seeing this or is something going on with regards to QuickPlay that I hadn't realised (e.g. we're now no longer able to be found by the browser, let alone getting traffic through QuickPlay).

I dunno I added them all to my favorites manually but it was a huge pain in the ass to get them from the page. I used a laptop to look at the list to then type them in. Skial have an app that adds all their servers to your favorites list. I have mentioned it before but I don't know if it would get used or if its something we want to use.

I think the server browser was never working 100% for me :huh:

Thats the reason why I usually go to the stats page and use the "Join" button if I want to join a server i dont have on my fav list.

Not perfect, but its working...

The server browser is buggy as hell, hence why a lot of people are driven towards quick play, as results actually appear sometimes...
