Title: request favorites
Post by: Iron Man on July 07, 2007, 10:42:09 am
it'd be nice if you could request your saved favorite servers, so you could see how many people are in them, the map, the ping, or simply if its offline or not.

spilt coffee was able to say it better than me, read on..

This isn't a bad idea. Rather than picking your favourites from the dropdown menu, maybe you can click on something and it shows your favourite servers where the normal ones are?

discuss

Yes, F12 to that. It's a very good idea, I don't want to join the servers until I find one with proper amount of players and decent ping. Some of the servers may not appear in the lobby, so I can't just check them out there.

I like it aswell. The only thing the dropdown list does is save the ip and the port. But if you know more about the server, that'd be great.

Heh, I actually understood yours better than SpiltCoffee's, Iron Man. :P

I like the idea. Should be simple to implement, and very useful, especially if you have more than just a few favourites.

this is stupid, but how do u check your favorite servers in Soldat??

pinOi, how can you call it stupid when you dont even understand it -.-

when you find a server you like, go to the server list page and click favorites add in the upper right hand corner. then theres a dropdown menu at the top that shows those.

I like this. Half the time my favorite servers are either off-line or full.

Um... I think what he meant was that he was referring to his question as stupid, not this suggestion.

Personally, I think it's a great idea, and it has virtually no cons.

actually I think it would be easier if it was jsut added into  Server Filter You Could Just uncheck everything and Check Fav. servers and only your Fav. would show up 

Very Nice Idea

lol i understood what he meant right from the beginning.
[Request Servers]
[Request Favorites]

- clicking the Request Favorites would show all the stats of ur favoirte servers.

thanks to whoever rated it! i keep finding uses for it, like when im trying to get in a server, its easier to double click over and over than clicking join over and over. clicking join kinda lags a bit.
