It works fine for me. Eight servers, six of which are full pretty much 24/7 and nobody with a reserved slot has a problem using the console to connect and remembering the IP they want to connect to. If they can't remember the IP they grab it off of the "View server info" for the server in their favorites or use the corresponding hostname.

Some of you really doesnt have more than just one server... We have 7 servers that are full every day, 200 slots in total. That doesnt come cheap to have, so our community helps by donating money, we give them VIP slots in exchange. Using connect command you would have to everytime search for 8 different server IP, port combination... 8 different keys to remeber all the different servers? Putting 8 servers in main game menu. Thats bullshit and you guys know that. Give me any other option and I will hide the slots. Its like 10 times easier just to connect to the server and you are instantly in. And if you do not know any other arguments, stop talking shit that reserved slots are a bad thing! Reserved slots are the reason the lets us have that many servers in the first place.
