I don't recall ever using GameSpy, so maybe it won't be that bad for me. I always used the in-game server browser for BF1942.

BF1942 relies on Gamespy to list servers in the server browser of all client games. BF1942 being one of them. Sorry dude, but it will be bad for you. :P

Unless someone finds away to create a custom server system to replace gamespy. But don't count on it. :(

Part of me thought that. Well. Now I am very sad. At least you guys give the IP address and all that... if that will even work.

Why so much fret ?

Just use shortcuts to join servers ? And of course Jeronimo's vbscript that allows clickable links in browser to jump straight into the mod/server

I can't find the thread for the life of me.. guess it used to be ? So snatch it up right here

Unless.. server hostage relies on GS ?

Launching the game from the browser (via a website) is a better idea. I don't want to download a program to get me into a different program.

I say we find someone with some programming skills and write up a Firefox/Chrome plugin that does this. Most folks don't have much issue using browser plugins. I wouldn't want to install a full blown program, but something like a plugin that can work seamlessly in the background and only activates when needed would be the best solution. ;)
