I don’t have premium and almost every populated server at the top of my browser is for Second Assault, which I _would_ buy, but not for fifty bucks. There’s no way to filter it out so I just have to keep combing through until I find one that’s not second assault. It’d be nice not to have to go through that headache, especially since BF3 allowed you to filter out all the maps and expansions you didn’t feel like playing. That, and apparently everyone’s playing Second Assault which leaves me with precious few servers to choose from. Finding them amidst a sea of empty/premium servers is 90% of the problem, and it shouldn’t be. ---

There isn’t a box for Second Assault (presumably since I don’t have it) but Second Assault servers are cropping up all over my server browser. ---

You can tell it to show only the original and/or China Rising maps. The problem is that some servers have sneaked in one or two SA maps, but the server list doesn’t display the SA icon. But…that’s the way it goes. Annoying. ---

There are servers that are ONLY Second Assault right now that I can’t filter out of my feed (since I don’t have access to those maps yet so they don’t show up in my filter?). It’s not a crippling issue, but it’s pretty damn annoying that almost every near-full server I see for the first 30 seconds or so of searching is on a map I can’t play. You’d think a map rotation you couldn’t play wouldn’t show up at all. ---

Right, like I said, you can filter it to ONLY show BF4 original and China Rising maps. Open the filter menu and just check all those maps and it won’t show the SA only servers. That’s what i’ve been doing. ---

Oh, right, I got it. I thought you were talking about how you can exclude maps if you click 'em twice. Well, that solves my problem for now anyhow, thanks!
