1.5k+ players online but I only see 1 server?

[Henry]

There are loads of servers in the server list but all are empty apart from 1 server that has always got 20/20 players on. I see there are over a thousand people playing, am I doing something wrong?

[Ya Like Jazz?]

Yeah I'm US East and I can only find one server with one person and the rest are empty.

Because filters?

[Loki]

check your filters

[Henry]

I haven't changed any filters, they're all set to the default, I've tried messing around with them but still nothing.

ISP/Firewall block then.

If the server counter finds them, then it's the in-game display filters, not the firewall filter.

There should be around 300 active servers or more.

You could always try to connect one directly, and use a server list:

http://www.gametracker.com/search/ns2/
http://hypernovadesign.co.uk/nanogrid/
http://ns2servers.devicenull.org/

Pick an ip, and then type connect <ip:port> in console (key under ESC) like so:
connect 144.76.119.131:14000

I verified integrity of game cache and now it's doing a 144.9mb update, I think this could be the problem. While I was downloading the game build 261 was released, hopefully this'll fix the problem. Thanks for the help guys, have a sentry turret

Still don't see anyone online here at US East, only seeing 70 servers, no filters to change anything.

@Holy Paladin try Verify Integrity of Game Cache, make sure you're not missing an update or anything. I haven't downloaded it yet so not sure if that's the fix to my problem.

@Henry I did that after I read your post about how you were doing it, everything was correct. Still no one on. Getting kinda sad after how much fun I was having last night lol.

[Henry]

Ah, I've finished the update and everything is working now, so not having the update was my problem
