[QUOTE=Herandar;277848]Actually, I’m not. I like variety. (Basing this conversation on my XBL BFBC2 experience.) I don’t care who the players are. I usually play with friends nowadays, but I made most of my friends by joining random squads until I found players that were pleasant and engaging. I’ll join a friend’s game, if I can. If a friend logs in while I’m playing, I will invite that friend to join.
In the rare occasions where I end up on a server without any other players, I’ll quit and try again. I don’t care what the map is beforehand. I’ll play whatever map comes up and adapt to it.
My internet conection is pretty good. I’ve never known what my ping is, and lag has only really been a issue to me once or twice in the past year. I know for a fact that I’ve played with Europeans, Japanese and Aussies in that time. Oh, and I played against some Russian guy living in South Africa once. Overall the system has worked fine for me, so I don’t have to worry about it.
If there is no problem in joining randoms, the why would I desire having to look through server lists and pick one, and the deal with capricious admins? Save your hate for something worth it.[/QUOTE]
I have never had to deal with admins. I mean even with the server browser you can just click sort by ping and take the first one. No hassle.
It’s even better when you just put up filters which you only need to do once.
I myself usually just go under favourited servers. You’d be suprised how every server has an awesome mini-community of players who always go to that servers. It’s awesome how you actually know 50% players.
