    When I select multiplayer and am in the server browser I only see 3 games. Is that normal or is there usually more than just 3?

    Depends on time of day. This is too late for the EU players and probably a bit early for the USA people. There was a lobby full of games a few hours ago when I was playing :p

    Edit: There is also a filter option to show 'all games' rather than just games you can join- that will show games currently in progress so they'll probably be quite a few, just not many open lobbies.

    I play on the AU servers, and the funny thing is, at most I only ever see six or seven games, mostly less. But whenever I create a game, like a 6-player FFA, the lobby fills within minutes. It's like players are just hanging about, not doing anything until someone else creates a game. It baffles me.

    This is fairly accurate, and why the idea of automatically created empty lobbies has been raised a few times. People seem keen on joining games, but not making them.

    The only thing I don't like about this scenario is that I don't make a lot of custom systems, and would often like to see what other systems people have to pl...

    I should get the system sharing mod.

    Never mind.
