I tried joining the server, but it was all cars enabled, and i couldn't switch the track from brands to oulton. Did some time trial instead.

That's just the 'test' server mark put up to get folks to try and connect.

Well, to be honest I think it is indeed a coincidence. Otherwise why would there be plenty of us who can see the server just fine despite not having beta access?

But quite frankly, I'm thinking there are some serious underlying issues with AMS 2's netcode. Cars being out of sync between clients, ping numbers being different depending on who's viewing them and from where, servers which are invisible to some and not to others, 76 servers being in the browser for one while only 32 show up for another... yeah.

Yep your probably right mate.

Yeah mate I had a practice server running as test - left open car choice on Brands. That was deliberate.

The practice server has been up constantly until a few mins ago when I changed it for the race config for tonight.

I've reported the vanishing server issue to Reiza again, so hopefully they'll give it a higher priority.

In please, oneill592

let’s hope there’s a patch so that some of us can actually see the server this week.

Everyone that wanted in got in last night Dan.

P.S Reiza just stated in recent update notes they are working on improving the dedicated server so hopefully better stability and more features headed our way.

Dan ONeill · Dec 2, 2020

Ok great, I’m not going to pretend that I know what the issue was so I’ll hope to see you all next week!

We´re also aware Multiplayer is in need of some further development to attend the requirements from the online community - we´re looking to make as much progress there as we can in time for the next update, and we welcome feedback from league runners as to what they currently most find lacking.

So multiplayer is definitely getting some work. The only thing I'm slightly concerned about is that the wording is suggesting new features rather than acknowledging the current issues the DS has. But we'll see.
