:point_down: DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL (below). LIMIT TO ONE BUG PER THREAD.
We see very late lobby. A bug that doesn’t happen on steam. Lobby appear when there 6 players in the room…

:arrow_forward: FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

:point_down: How often does the issue occur? CHOSE ONE; DELETE THE REST!

  • 100% of the time / matches I play (ALWAYS)

:arrow_forward: REPRODUCTION STEPS

:point_down: List CLEAR and DETAILED STEPS we can take to reproduce the issue ourselves… Be descriptive!

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Go in lobby browser
  2. Filter or research keyword
  3. Only 1/3 of lobby is display (3 or 4 games)

:arrow_forward: EXPECTED RESULT

:point_down: What was SUPPOSED to happen if the bug you encountered were not present?
Display all lobby who respect the filter (up to 30 lobby for example)

To fix the issue !!!
Do the filter or the research on all lobby on the server and not on the 30 lobby load.
For example if you search for CBA, it will display 1 or less CBA. If you click on “load more” many time and then search for CBA it will display 10 CBA. The problem won’t happen if you load all lobby on the client or do the keyword research on the server.
If you order the result to show on top lobby with mod, the user expect that the lobby browser will show all lobby with mod but you see 5 lobby with mod and 25 without mod. The player beleive that there is only 5 with mod but it’s only because the game load first 30 lobby and then change the order of display.
Sorry for my english
It’s an easy fix and player won’t lost 20 minutes of waiting in the lobby browser to find a game they want to play

:arrow_forward: IMAGE

:point_down: ALWAYS attach a PICTURE (.jpg, .png, .gif) or VIDEO (.mp4, YouTube link) that highlights the problem.

:arrow_forward: GAME FILES (SAVE / RECORDING)

:point_down: Attach a SAVE GAME (.aoe2spgame) or GAME RECORDING (.aoe2record) of the match where you encountered the issue. Link it below if using an external file service.

The “solution” proposed doesn’t work for me. You can check on a 3rd party browser that the most recent lobbies are not being displayed.

I am talking about solution to aoe2 dev not for us…
