Default Seriously guys, sort out the server browser.

Great game guys but your server browser is driving my mad! First, its buggy and won't show the correct number of players on the server until you select it.
Second, it outright does not find all available servers.
Third, the filters make it worse. For example, I can see Server 1 with Hard Difficulty, it has VAC on and it's empty with NO filters on. I put a filter on (make sure VAC is on, it's empty and hard difficulty) and.... Server 1 will not show up!
Fourth, the patch has made things worse. I cannot even find my rented Gameservers.com server anymore and I've reinstalled everything!
If I use Steams server browser, it works perfect and finds my server!

PLEASE fix the browser ASAP!

Yeah, the server browser is still very slow for me.

whenever I see a 5/6 player server when I join it says full, I can even go back and repeatedly refresh the same servers and it still says 5/6 then i join.
full.

and any severs with 0/6 people I simply can't join (just gives me a black screen) which makes it nearly impossible to play with friends.

It took me and ONE FREAKIN FRIEND like 20 minutes to get into a server together because they fill so goddamn fast.

Host your own or rent a server put a password on it or add this mod to the server. Or you could just use the steam browser.

The problem with the steam browser is you can't see the difficulty and playing in a beginner server is unacceptable to me.

IIRC, it's just the normal UT server browser o.0.

Guys the server browser is fine, it is having to ping every single address that the master server hands it which is around a couple thousand and then if your filtering it has to filter all of the ones that you didn't want...so give it a break.

Never put don't show full servers, never put don't show empty. To figure out how many players a game has and have it updated to the last second just simply left click the server once and count how many players it has listed on the bottom right. You can also see the length by checking the number of waves at the bottom left.
