Not sure if all this has been written here before, couldn't be bothered to read thru it all :)
Firstly, if ur disconnected or crash or whatever u can't log back in for ages because the system thinks you're still online. So u have to have at least 2 passwords.
U have to remember to close down using the systray option. If u use the close window thing (which is intuitive) u get the above problem.
Sometimes, I've had a problem whereby u launch a server, but it's full or something, so u try another, but it now won't connect correctly (this is on Half-Life Mods) and the only solution is a complete reboot.
It doesn't seem to function too well in high ping environments. As a btfree user this is all too common :( . Sometimes it will not connect, or not send the name/password data or generally start up WP3 with several attenpts. Often the server update list is very slow and sometimes a server list won't appear at all.
I also find annoying that I seem to be inserted into a chat room for each server I look @. Could u set the default for the chat window to off. Generally when I play I want to get straight into the action.
Try testing it on Sunday afternoon with a BTfree connection, if u can get it to work well then, it'll work well anywhere :)
Hope this helps + is constructive.
