Server Filters

Can we have a filter option for removing the UWE official servers? They all have horrible performance, and its annoying when you think you've found a decent ping, decent player size server, only to find out that it is actually unplayable.

Thanks

    That would be a bandaid fix. How about having better filtering by performance of all servers.

    @GhoulofGSG9 Thanks!

    @james888 Yeah, it would be a short-term fix. Still, I doubt we'd ever get a decent, well-thought out improvement, seeing as how the focus has shifted over to UWE's new game. I guess I'll just have to suffer through it...

    An even quicker suggestion is just not play on servers you know have poor performance if you can't stand it. I don't know what region you are, but here in NA west we don't have as many players as europe yet still have quality servers.

    Agreed, the performance filter doesn't do anything.

    The issue with the performance is that it is the current perf of the server not the avg. To change this you would need to cache the avg tickrate at the server, which would mean that a effectiv filter mod would also requieres all servers to run its server part.

    What never gonna happen with the current situation of mods and all the different server admins.

    As the thread poster only wanted a way to get rid of all servers with surely perf issue i suggested to use ns2+ because by this you get rid of all unadminstarted and official servers ;)
