Hello once again!!!

I tried to search but didn´t find anything so here is the question:

Is there a way to NOT have all the servers you played on saved in the favorite server list!!!

Why??

Because if you play in a server it saves it in the favorite list. Not marked as green but it is there.
So by playing many different servers during an evening they all get saved here.
When connecting to the account server it takes ages before you get connected because it tries to connect to your so called favorite servers that are not on line or exist anymore...and that sucks!!!!

And no, I don´t like to go to the favorite list every day and delete servers I don´t wanna have there.
I am doing it now but I am getting tired of it cause every now and then I forget to delete them and then I suddenly have to wait almost a minute before getting connected.
If I like a server I select it as a favorite manually, thank you very much!!!


And some servers don´t even get selected as favorites even though I select them during game play....

Ok, I´m bitching again, I know, but this really sucks!!!!

Couldn't it work in a way like this?? :

While you are on line the game would store all the played servers there in the list, but when you quit it would erase them for good.

In that way, if you like a server, you would still have a chance to store it as a favorite as long as you are on line, but you would have to do it manually.

I hate it as it is now...

Off course, If you have favorite servers where you play you do not have this problem, but I am a crusader and I like to go from server to server and play the maps I like to play... I bet that there are other guys thinking like me!

Or am I just dumb and have not noticed that there is a way to turn this favorite server shit off???

Please discuss and if there is a way then tell me!!!!

Thank you for listening!!!

The whole server browser/favorites list/community tab in general is a piece of junk. Not much we can do though...

Yes, the servers you visit are all saved into favorite servers, and when you try login it connects or checks all the servers you have visited, which may take a while to login.

To fix this:

Go into my docs/Battlefield 2/profiles

Find the profile of your soldier

Open General.con in notepad.

Scroll down to where it has the servers you have visited, for example, mine is this

GeneralSettings.addServerHistory "203.26.94.3" 29901 "Internode BF2 #04 (GulfOman)" 300
GeneralSettings.addServerHistory "203.26.94.6" 29900 "Internode BF2 #14 (Inf)" 274
GeneralSettings.addServerHistory "144.140.154.85" 30200 "GameArena BF2 #02 [Inf] [No Vehicle] Ranked" 62
GeneralSettings.addServerHistory "150.101.172.68" 29900 "Internode WA BF2 #03 (Inf)" 16
GeneralSettings.addServerHistory "203.26.94.2" 29900 "Internode BF2 #11 (Inf,32on64)" 314
GeneralSettings.addServerHistory "144.140.154.95" 37333 "GameArena BF2 #05 [China Maps] Ranked" 23
GeneralSettings.addServerHistory "150.101.183.66" 29900 "Internode QLD BF2 #03 (Inf,32on64)" 562
GeneralSettings.addServerHistory "144.140.154.123" 30250 "3FSJ Ranked Dalian Plant 32P (not Gamearena / In" 69
GeneralSettings.addServerHistory "203.26.94.2" 29901 "Internode BF2 #12 (Inf,32on64)" 193
GeneralSettings.addServerHistory "203.26.94.8" 29900 "Internode BF2 #08 (GulfOman)" 125
GeneralSettings.addServerHistory "203.26.94.13" 29900 "Internode BF2 #09 (GulfOman)" 133
Delete all that

This will make you login alot faster depending on the amount of servers you had there .

Clean it out every 2 weeks or so.

I agree it's not working right.
I allways add a server before joining that works better.
And never refresh 'cause then some of my favorites dissapear.
I could use a manual 'cause it's not easy to figure out how it works.
