Server Browser - Join queue system when attempting to join a full server

Client - New chat system allows chatting when dead (but not during end of round) and keeps a 100 lines log
Client - Improved Play Now functionality
Client - Removed K/D ratio and Skill Level filters in the leaderboards

This is going to be awesome. Also fuck the queue system unless play now actually fills dead servers. People only joining servers with 31 people in them will get worse. Maybe things will get better as the over supply of servers goes down.

Will this allow me to use multiplayer again, and actually find servers?

If so, this is relevant to my interests.

I remember watching the chat log and looking for CVARS when we first had the servers set up and thinking "who the fuck are they to mandate a chat filter on an M-rated game"

I mean if you want to have one fine, but it should be a toggle or a txt file for filtered words that is managed by the server owner, not the company.

And the uber old patch that should've been out at the beginning of month is finally dated, somewhat.

http://planetbattlefield.gamespy.com/ful...?id=162796

Basically it'll be out on the 23rd.  If it doesn't hit the approval window in time, it'll be out next monday.

Not many lol I'll get back to playing alittle bit more with the patch which adds in smoke for choppers, abit slower tracer speed, and a few other things since I forgot what the whole patch is bringing.
