umm it isn't hard? ........ Felix is right.

Well if you hadn't read my post, guess I'll have to repeat for you:

Sure, lots of 16 servers, but that's why there's always lots on those, 'cause no one wants to play the 16's... the more bases, the better (64 maps preferred, but 32s will do).

Hard to find available slots on the bigger map servers... now even harder.

Now, exactly how is Felix right? I already use that option, always have. Felix was first and foremost being a smartass, and secondly might have had the slightest of intention to provide some information.

Mostly the former, and you as well appear to be wanting to endeavour toward the same motivations. I can do without it, thanks anyway. Best of luck to you, good night.

Oh my goodness... it isn't that hard. You must be really stupid or something if you can't get into a freaking server.

If you read half of my posts you would see that I am a nice person and rarely sarcastic. I (and 99% of this forum) get sick of swimming through post after post after post of a) the same thing that has been posted 100s of times before b) Dumb questions that can be answered by google or by using common sense or c) Rants. <---- thats where yours falls in.

Last I checked there are over 3000 RANKED servers on the list. 15% of them are 64man, 45% of them are 32man and the rest are 16-X amount.

Saying that you cant find a server (yes, even a large map server) is like saying that you fell off of your boat in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and couldn't find water. There are even tools built into the browser so you dont have to deal with full servers.. yet you still chose to get in the forums and start a flame-attracting, pointless, waste of everybodies time thread.

My biggest problem is deciding which server to get on and which map I want to play not finding an empty one. The last time I was on (earlier today) there were 300+ servers with 16 and 32 players maps that weren't full.

If you do question the slot situation you can click on a server in the list and it will update to include the number of admin slots currently taken.

Maybe, just maybe, the server is indeed full. I know, a radical thought, but hey, you never know what can happen!

Yup, it's a pain in the arse Azn, like I said originally, you end up spending more time than you should have to just trying to get onto a server. And Brak, when I initially get onto the game, the server listing is "fresh" and if you've played a game and come back to it and don't refresh the server listing, then the listing won't be too very accurate at all, I'm aware of that and work the listing accordingly. This doesn't change my initial argument at all.

Felix and a1point I suspect have deficiencies relating to literacy, as they seem to be able to read, but don't catch on to the substance of the argument. Any semi-literate person reading my posts can plainly see that I never purported to be unable to find servers, and I've made it quite clear that I have been using the "don't list full servers" option all along.

I, Felix and crew, can not only read, but also appreciate the author's intent. As such, I have indeed read the forum rules, and can assure you that it is permissible to rant on this forum. I choose to exercise my right to express my disappointments with parts of BF2, by means of these forums, regardless of how you feel about it. Tough tiddy I say - for you, and your crew... just a little rhyme for you, and your crew. See, I'm nicer than you, I've even offered a bit of salve, for you, and your crew... a double dose even.

Re: 64 player , 32 player map size servers , where?..

Filter medium maps in server browser then just look for ones showing 64 players. Theyre out there, just not many of them. 32 player maps rock with 64 guys.

As I said all along to you, and your crew... not easy to find those servers, and now even less so. Sounds like there's a lot more stupid ppl out there just like me who can't find these non-existant servers, doesn't it you, and your crew?

Hi. I posted a thread earlier on a utility I wrote that watches full servers and lets you know when you can join them. The details are on this thread:
