correct as is Server with NO password that actually require a password ?

Hello all,

How could possible be that in Multiplayer, when I filter the servers that have NO password, when I try to connect it, it still require a password to connect ?

What it could be the reason ?

Thanks !

The password box at the bottom is irrelevant to the password you filtered for.  The password requirement in the server screen is for getting onto the server at all and will come up immediately on selecting the server -- you won't get to the screen you're getting to.  I believe the password box at the bottom of this screen would be used within the server to prevent RED players from entering BLUE planes or vice versa.  Anyway, if you pick a slot and click briefing leaving the password box empty you'll likely get into a plane.

Yep..you're right !

That must be something very recent because until a couple of days ago there were no password box...

Thanks !

I swear that a copule of days ago there was NO password box al the bottom of that page... at least in the Open Beta version.

Anyway...whatever it is or was, all good now.

Thanks.

EDIT:

There you go.... NO password required today...

Don't know why.

You're comparing the multiplayer server screen to the in game client selection screen. While the server might not have a password to join, once you join, you'll need a password to enter any redfor client slots.
