There's a working server browser already in the code? So why on earth say there was only going to be match making? The only thing I can think of is to force users to try the matching making system, which you knew they wouldn't like and hence would avoid if there was a working server browser?
If so that kind of makes sense, but I hope it also answers the question: Will server operators or players stand for a game which lacks a proper server browser? Clearly the answer is no we won't, it maybe a necessary evil for consoles which have crappy controllers but for PC's just NO! Surely if this was the goal you could have just asked, instead of putting us all through this anguish that such a promising game may be totally ruined by such a silly mistake :( That's not to say I don't think a quick "play now" option is a good idea I do. It will definitely be beneficial for new or console users getting into PC gaming and anything that makes gaming more accessible is a good think, as long as it isn't at the expense of the experienced users being able to control their experience easily. Please don't do a Microsoft and make your products so dummed down that the advanced users can't stand to use them. Yes I'm referring to the latest office suite with that god-awful ribbon system which makes things that have been so easy to do for years impossibly difficulty to find.
