Server Browser FULL of fake servers and fake pop. (30+ pages btw)
New, NormalPublic

Description

I shouldn't even have to make this feedback tracker, someone from the dev team just needs to open the game and use the server browser.

Lets start simple. This is the 60th page of my server browser.

It is literally impossible to host a server with more than 127 players. Even with a modded exe, theres hard coded values that will crash the server. So nobody can say it's possible. With that in mind, why do servers with more than 127 even show on the list? Changing ServerBrowserEntry::SetPopulationEx takes less than a minute to fix this. This accounts for the FIRST SIXTY PAGES OF SERVERS on the server browser.

It doesn't just stop at fake FULL servers though.


Hundreds of these generically named servers with fake pop exist.

I was curious to see what server it actually is, so I joined, and thats when I discovered it was a modded server named SkyFall

What really brings this situation full circle though, is the fact that they're a pay to win server. Look for yourselves (nice domain by the way).

This is just embarrassing, especially when you're actively updating the server browser. It's shameful thinking of a new DayZ player trying to use this server browser in its current state.

Event Timeline

Same, embarrasing to keep having "pay to win" servers. Looks like the reports on them do not have any importance... Reported one on April 2024 and all that I have its an automated message saying that Bohemia Interactive has received the message and they will contact me "as soon as possible" (They did not contact with me any further)....
