    Star Wars Battlefont II multiplayer servers still up?

    I already owned a hard copy of SWBFII, but since It's a game I really love, steam made a good promotion on it and I didn't mind adding it to my collection there, so I bought it once more during the summer sale.
    But then I remembered that Gamespy servers had shut down, and that I wouldn't be able to play the multiplayer. That made me a little sad . Still I installed the game and to my surprise there is still a good amount of servers up, and I was playing without any issues. How come they are still up?
    I'm not complaining, I'm just surprised :)

    And no, I'm not using any third party software to find servers, no xfire, or gameranger..nothing. It's in the game serverlist itself.

          Qtracker supports SWBFII, and recently qtracker is making a big effort to create a free master server to support all the "gamespy" games.

          Public Server Listings May 29th, 2014 @ 03:20PM ET
          To help consolidate efforts for all the various application authors out there having to deal with the Gamespy shutdown, I've made all of the Qtracker server listings public.
          I don't want things to be like they were before where there's tons of private server listings that are all accessed in different ways or cannot be accessed at all. Qtracker still can't support most of the newer games because everything's private these days. Such a shame.
          Anyways, I'm not going to start ranting against game developers going against their roots and against gamers themselves, but I'm also not going to be part of the problem by keeping my data private.
          with that said, you can get a list of all active server ip's from various games here.
          If you don't want to use qtracker or 3rd party browsers, you can modify your hosts file to pickup the qtracker public list. instructions in the first link.
