Who thinks there shuld be a server list? I know there are different servers for each type of gameplay but like to have an idea before joining how many players there are and what language they they speak and also the game details.

 

For example...someone can make a server saying...'UK people only' and gives you the game details etc, sometimes I like autoaim turned on and when I join a server that says like no autoaim then I leave it. Also some peopl choose to play 30 minutes and I only like 15 minutes for each map etc.

 

Support me here if you think there should be server lists please.

It would be nice to have a sort of search tool where you could choose game settings and it would find a match with those settings. It would make things a little easier.

This was my rant earlier and people just seemed to shunt me off! Server lists are a MUST with a ping indicator and how many people are in the room itself! It makes so much sense and makes life easier for everyone!

wow my exact thoughts. I once ended up in a race with "People Carriers" and the host wanted it to be 8 laps! also one of the longest racetracks there is! >_< I quit kinda fast. Its fun to race other things than only supercars but 8 laps is ridiculous at those speeds.

The most frustrating thing is joining a match and hearing french, german, swedish or whatever it is basically a language I can't understand. Part of the fun of the game is communicating with other people or phoning the enemy right before you kill them =p

 

I think language based servers would be nice

also, server lists offer clan recruitment rooms which are of course the awesome.

 

i wanna be able to be hanging out with my clan and then be like you know, lets go f*ck with that clan and then all join their recruitment room and just mess with em.

ya i hate the new PS3 systems were i am forced in to random rooms either 16 people or 2... in all honesty clans are almost pointless i can remember playing battlefront 1 and 2 clans would put up public rooms we can easily make clan battles, or recruit and you can chose who you can play with... i mean you dont have to invite all your friends, the room was always up or someone had a room and you can play anytime thats how it should be.....

Well, this is what PC versions for biggrin.gif!!

 

If PC doesnt get a server list, someone can atleast make one. But yeah, there desperately needs to be a server list on the consoles. The multiplayer for this game quite frankly sucks d*ck.

 

No server list, so you cant hardly organize games.

With atleast 9 million copies sold, you would think they could host it themselves, instead of going with BS Gamespy servers that you can hardly stay connected too.

No mini-games or anything, so theres really no point in "hanging out" with friends.

No real spawn weapons, which makes playing more difficult since most likely you'll get mowed down while looking for a gun.

Only 16 players, which is extremely weak compared to other games.

 

I cant wait for this game to hit PC, because once it does the modding community will have a ball fixing the multiplayer.

 

I always wondered what the SA:MP team and the MTA team would do for this game. Hopefully they'll fix this stuff.

I agree with this 1000000%.

 

I personally love the lobby the SOCOM games have.

 

You get to decide what side you want to be on. What room you want to be in and what maps you want to play.

Oh please god yes. I'm sick to death of these pathetic console multiplayer systems for game browsing... By which of course I mean quick join or new game and nothing else. Is it really so hard to look on a list of games where you can actually see what the ping and player counts are like? Why it isn't always at least made optional I've never gotten.

The multiplayer definitely needs a lobby browser, it takes so long to find a lobby that suits you. Half the time I'm leaving and joining hoping to get in a lobby with the settings I like. sad.gif

Yes please! If not then at least a good matchmaking system where you get up to 16 players, not just 4.

The poll speaks truth. Everyone wants a sever list. I hate playing in a gme with certain settings all day then the next day I have to adjust to all new settings.

 

Also, when you are in Party Mode it sends you back to freeroam after every match! That is horrible. Excessive and needless loading.

What we need is a "number of rounds" option. I hate going into the Cops/Robbers mode, wait 5 minutes, then play... the match sometimes lasts less than a minute and your back to waiting an additional 5+ minutes.

ok .. why oh WHY would anyone vote NO to the OPTION of having a server browser?

 

i cant understand the logic in anyones brain who says that. you dont have to use it, there will still be a quick launch feature (just look at team fortress 2 for example)

 

 

but saying NO to 'should there be a server a browser' just baffles me. Please to pollers voting no, could you at least post to justify that please?
