When I leave my server and search for it after in the Portal server browser, I cannot find the server I created and marked as persistent.
Title of server is Chaotic Pandas: A Better Battlefield. Full XP, Permanent Server. Region is Australia.
I have activated persistent portal servers in my settings, and I have enabled persistent server and clicked the host button.
The server started fine. Whether I leave soon after or stay for a full round and let the second map load, when I leave, the server is gone. It does not show up in the server browser. There are only four servers or so listed in Australia, judging by ping. This has to be wrong - I thought I saw a dozen earlier today.
My server is close to the default settings so that people can just join a persistent server without being kicked out to the menu all the time, plus some vehicle spawn delays and people downed being able to crawl.
What am I doing wrong?
Separate query: There is a notice in the server settings that states "Mastery Limited". This happens from enabling AI. I take it the mastery limitations only apply to AI kills, and mastery will still progress normally when fighting human players?
I searched on the exact name of my server using both the 'Server Name' and 'Experience Name' options, and nothing came up. I have no idea how to find my so-called "Persistent Server" after I have left it, especially if it is empty. Does this feature actually work? From what I can tell, it does not work for me.
i can see many empty servers in the main browser except for my server!!! Not there!! Only in search i can find it
Ok so apparently my server is persisting but the server browser won't show it unless I search for it.... Which is wack.
Hi, so I did some testing. The server will be listed only if you search for it. If you create an experience and only you join the server, it will not be visible to other players. You have to get a friend to join your created experience and only then will it be listed and visible to other players. Which defeats the purpose of hosting a portal experience.
Basically, two different people need to be on the server for it to be visible. I am currently emailing back and forth with EA regarding this issue, and I * you not they basically told me to come here to EA answers and look for a solution myself.
Here is my created post on the issue. Portal server not listed under "browse servers" - Answer HQ (ea.com)
