A Persistent Server means your Server remains visible within the Server Browser even without active players. This will enable communities to stay together across their favourite servers, without needing to wait for the Server Owner to come online and activate the Server.

So for the private/portal communities means the server will always be their for people to join.

BUT what we really want is a server browser but i think that request has been flogged to death

Yes, that has been around for quite a while now (a couple of seasons at least) the question comes down to what in the preview "persistent server improvements" means, does it mean changing those in some way for Portal or something else? Maybe some form of rcon tools to interact with the server via a web browser or something. \\

@ForumUser  thanks yep looks like it didn't attach the closing paren )

    Persistent server improvements could just mean for portal. I'm going to wait and see.

    Ditto. I really want to get excited, but it could just be an update to Portal.

    @ElliotLH Or there’s the saying hope is delayed disappointment, which is more fitting with Dice these days.
    But I would like to be proven wrong in this case 🤞

    @RanzigeRidder2 That's a good one. Reminds me of the "hope is the first step on the road to disappointment" line from Dawn of War.

    Fully with you that being proven wrong would be fantastic.

    I thought persistent server would mean everyone in the game is guaranteed to reconnect to the same server after each game is over. Like it Does in portal and says what the next upcoming map is.

    This way no one returns to the main lobby.
