Where is server list?

[Wersion751]

I have been trying to find it but nothing, I have see on youtube that when people paly mw2 multiplayer they have acess to server list, but main just says "Your nat type is Open" and thats it.

Does server list from mw2 multiplayer has been removed or there is something wrong with my laptop?

Servers were never incorporated into MW2 by Activision or IW. It relied on console style match making lobbies instead that are played via P2P connections. The server browser you have seen online else where is more of a side community project, and has nothing to do with the game officially, nor any support from the game maker.

There is no server list. Any mods that do this aer asiking for a VAC ban.

Blatantly false.

And this should tell you everything you need to know about their "dedicated servers".

Copied directly from the TKC website:

Disclaimer: I am not 100% sure playing this way will get you VAC banned or not. Since Steam is not needed to play on the dedicated servers, I simply kill the process just to play it safe. In all the years I have played on 4D1 servers, I have never received a ban when making sure Steam was not running. If you choose to leave Steam running, and you get a VAC ban, you have no one to blame but yourself.

Im working on getting my server browser up and functioning completely.. problem is is that the host constantly change and it would have to be constantly updated... I can make this work.... but I cant share the code... mainly cause someone would pervert it...so im thinking of dropping it to a web page somehow... this would mean an ass load of work so for right now its a personal thing that I am working on... it rudamently is fine but I would prefer if I could include a players list... and for the most part I have one... who knows... im pretty sure ive also configured way to bring back the favela in my hosts... again with no mods to mw2... should be fun... what steam iw and demonware fail to do I will do

And something I have told tictac that should be said publicly is that any time you kill steam with taskkill it records how it was terminated and if it is terminated with taskkill it does "extra" things upon startup

[TacTicToe]

Not really sure how steam is able to record how it was terminated, but in reality it should not really matter. I can terminate any process on my personal PC that I wish to as I wish to. Steam has not control over my personal PC in regards to what I run or when. If I wish to kill the Steam task, I can do so.

Now, if you are running something that changes the game play so that you have an advantage over everyone else, aimbot, no reoil, wallhack etc etc, then that is a whole different story. As I have never downloaded or used any such type of software, for me it is not an issue. All the game directories that have Steam games in them are completely clean and legit when running Steam.

Since I honestly do not know if the community project that we use to play on dedicated servers could get you banned or not, I simply take precautions and advise others to do so as well. I own the games I play, so for me I have no personal feelings of guilt playing the game as it should have been designed originally. Only someone that has never played a 4D1 server would questions the validity or awesomeness of it. If you do not wish to try it, then don't. It is as simple as that.

Finished the player list part of my server browser... now all I need to do is learn some simple html code and setup the code for updating the web browser... what would be much better is if I could automate this to where it can be a stand alone daemon

To be honest, that is totally unfair if there is a slight chance to get VAC banned just because we want to play on dedicated servers. VAC stands for "Valve Anti Cheat" not "Valve bans for playing the game proper" Dedicated servers are the true way to play PC games, and they should not have the right to penalize people who want to make that come true.

So are you saying if I play with this mod, I can get banned?

[Laptop]

Any modding is a ban on this game.

[Insanity]

That's honestly retarded... How are a lot of people not banned then?
