Hmm, I'm also now seeing that since the update the servers are now showing up on <a href="http://www.game-monitor.com/search.php?game=naturalselection22&public=&order=-players" target="_blank">Game-Monitor</a> site.
UWE made some nice improvements with this patch, now alpha is better but it becomes unplayable when server reaches 8 players and a certain amount of structures is built. Keep on the good work guys! :)

Fade rocks and that trailer is very nice to me but the idea of having a beta already at this state of the game scares me because alpha is not playable yet :S

Especially since betas are suppose to be mostly feature except for the small things and the game isn't there yet.

Definitely looking forward to the patch tomorrow. Seeing "Server Performance" tasks get accepted is always encouraging.

Okay so the 'Fix server crash (memory leak)' and 'Fix "couldn't connect" issues' tasks are now Finished; I wonder if there is a chance for a hotfix before today's end?

Haha, yeah maybe but consider this entry: "Trying to fix server leak/crash <i>argh</i>". I think the "argh" is pretty crucial on how they are feeling right now about the problem :p
I think they are pretty spent by now so I/we shouldn't blame them for not getting it done tonight.
The game may not be what we all consider to be a 'beta' but honestly who cares? Do we feel that because we've payed for the game we love we should be treated like investors who should have a say in their business decisions? I don't have a clue what's going on in their offices, financially or otherwise. I make no claim to know what is best for their company.
I love NS, I am hopeful for NS2, and I want all the haters to accept that the game is not yet released, so don't expect it to work. That is what this pre-release time is for. Geeesh. If they need to hype their game and open up the closed beta, by all means, if it means they can continue their consistent and steady progress.
Some of us here are rooting for you, UWE. Please don't let the currently prevailing negativity get you down. I trust you guys.

What is it doing under gameplay tasks? Hmm it is a problem that's affecting gameplay so maybe that's the relation lol.
Im a new pre order customer who was expecting issues coming into a beta, and a beta being funded by pre orders. However, I can no longer get into games. I can be patient.. for awhile. I hope the next build can fix this. Also it seems the netcode was all over the place, the few games I did get into were lagged to hell and back. Things like auto looping on my rifle audio fire clip etc..
I'm on a 10Mbps connection and my pings to these servers at the time were < 50.
Looking forward to actually playing, not sure how long that'll take.

Hopefully the increase in users and feedback reporting can allow it swing along at full speed.
<i>EDIT: The word hopefully was used to show that that it is HOPE, and not LOGIC that I am expressing in this post.</i>
Guess we still gotta wait on the gameplay build tick to be accepted and we're ready for launch!!!
:D

Now it's gone O_o
I just had a different progress page with the tasks until release. WTF?
Right before the update a few seconds ago apparently.
Me too, atm the most servers i try to connect to say it's full (even if only 3 players are signed in) or "couldn't establish connection with server" and after some time of game it disconnect with that message again so i hope this will be fixed soon because this beta has to deserve to be called beta! :D

unless of course u got people on the team that have no idea how to help fix the lag.. then u can put them on something else
Just wanted to say, this amount of insight into development is (to me) unprecedented and I'm really liking it, way to go.
