Any updates on Portal Persistent Servers? There are NONE, every day. I create one, and it is not visible in the Portal Server Browser. It is enabled, I have Persistent Servers enabled, but I can't find any.
If they were enabled, you would see a lot with 0 players, I don't see any.
Can someone comment on this?

@AdamonicHi mate,
If you create a server and make it persistent, you should find it in the browser by tabbing across to “custom” using the filter at the top.
Your server should be there.
Hi, thanks for the reply. I have tried that, looked at all the tabs to make sure I wasn't missing anything. I can create a Custom Experience with Persistent Server enabled, then check the Custom tab and the instance is not visible. Also, there are no visible servers/instances with 0 players persisting for 7 days like they said they would. Once it goes empty, the server disappears from the list.
Can you do me a favor and create a custom experience of anything, then label it EA Forums Test Server. Then leave it after you spawn once, then go to custom tab and look for it. Take a screenshot of your custom server listed with 0 players.
@AdamonicYo,
I have done this and my server is staying up after I leave and even if there are no players in it.
My server is custom.
I have set my servers to be persistent.
I host/ open the server and wait for the first map to load up (it’s not unusual for a map to fail to load!)
Then I select “leave game”.
I go to the browser screen, tab across to show custom servers.
Scroll down the list of servers and I will find my server with 0 players in it (unless someone had joined since I opened it).
I never used persistent servers because there are usually frequent server crashes. Or maps wouldn’t load properly, requiring the admin (me) to restart the map.
But I have used persistent servers recently so my friends can jump in when I’m not online.
