Bad News from Germany
Posted: Mon Nov 12, 2007 4:32 pm
Now that the full game has been released in Germany, screenshots and very bad news have been trickling out over the Internet. Basically, the full version of the game is like the Beta Demo (big surprise).
This means that the server browser not only lacks features that we've come to expect, but that you can't even make a list of Favorites with it (!!!).
Here are two (now locked) threads at the Epic forums where people are complaining and venting about it. It sounds like fans are very disappointed!

I can understand being rushed by Midway to hurry up and produce the gold version, and I can understand that the focus would be to fix bugs, video driver, and compatibility issues. However, I sure hope that Epic fixes the Server Browser with the first patch. Epic is aware that its fans are unsatisfied...but will they...can they...do anything to fix the game's myriad User Interface and Server Browser deficiencies?
