Wow for lots of people who can't get browser working, crashing their game and 50 million threads about it in the official forum (supposedly) Rolling Eyes

pretty interesting since it's not even commented about in the patch, only slowness and no pings. Guess that guy on this site if up the creek without a paddle.

Quote:

No ping displayed - This is caused by Windows admin privileges. To view ping in the server browser run BFBC2.exe with administrator privileges.

That's the only prob I got. Not a big deal since I play on our own server mostly. It would be nice if the browser updated live on the screen rather than refresh everything and then show you.[/i]

And it would be nice to refresh those servers faster, not to wait and download a couple of terabytes of info.... Rolling Eyes

But, well see tomorow Smile

I hope they really make it this time Laughing

Haha, the PC version is $10 cheaper.

My only concern is the ping column. For the rare time I play this as a pubber I'd like to know the ping of the server. Pretty lame you need to run it as administrator. Tells me EA is F'd up because they could have allowed for the permissions on the game when they installed it. Duh

this is how i get the browser to work,

goto server browser allow search for 10 seconds.
stop the search
click on filter boxes games no passwords or whatever you want.
bing boom, the server list appears...
