Number of players and Ping both start off at the most permissive values possible, 0 and 9999 respectively. Set the filter values to these values for the equivalent of 'All'. Filtering by Game Name shows game names containing what is entered. Entering "Dedicated" without quotes) in the Game Name filter will show (for example) "Lucasarts Dedicated Server", "Pandemic T1 Dedicated", or "John's Non-Dedicated Home Server". To clear this filter, delete the text that was entered in this box. Filters are cumulative -- if you change the Map filter to 'Hoth' and the Ping filter to '200', it will show servers which match BOTH of those filters.

Install process for North American region discs on non-English operating systems has been optimized. Difficulty entering vehicles due to latency has been addressed. Corrects a game controller mapping issue in the Key Configuration screen.
