We were hacked. Several times over the past two weeks, in fact.
While all passwords are encrypted and salted, it's recommended that you change your password here when you can.
I just now downloaded and installed the 1.5 patch for CoD4.. but pretty much 90% of the servers are empty.. have i done something wrong? do i need to download anything else? or are most the servers just empty?..
I think i will have to uninstall and go back to 1.0
As others have said, there are a lot of empty servers, but that's because there are thousands of servers out there.
But, most people who play this game are on v1.5, so that version should still give you the most available populated servers to play on.
There does seem to be some sort of bug(s) out there though, that are preventing some people from seeing all the servers that they should, unfortunately.
Ok i have taken a screenshot of all the servers right up to 180 ping.. As u can see by the pic there is only one decent server..
Its a bit hard to see.. but pretty much all the servers u see on that picture are empty except one, with the exception of two servers that each only have 3 ppl in them...
Time of the day plays a significant role for when you search. Peak times are usually after school/work on weekdays, so keep that in mind.
The other thing is your location. You're in Oz, so there won't be as many servers near you with a good ping because you're so remote compared to the large centers of activity in Europe and North America.
At any rate, to make life easier for you, go into your Filters and set "View Empty" to "No". That way the only servers you even see will have people in them. You may just have to accept that you'll have to play on higher-ping servers due to your location. But, if you still don't see very many populated servers, even at higher pings, then you may have a problem with your game communicating with the Activision Master Servers.
yeah i understand time of day plays into server population however even at times like 7:30pm i still get pretty close to the same result. Playing on servers with a ping higher than 180 i get pwnd as soon as i come round a corner or in close combat. as for me not having a decent conection to the master server im not sure, On 1.0 version most of the aussie servers were full, though only 5 of them
