GameSpy Master Server List

What's the deal with the GameSpy master server these days?

Apparently GameSpy's New Owners Begin Disabling Multiplayer Without Warning eleven months ago.

So multiplayer is allegedly disabled and server browsing doesn't work in-game.

I didn't even notice! because:

Game servers still register with GameSpy and the master server still keeps up-to-date lists, doesn't it?

Simply needing to use a web browser isn't exactly a huge inconvenience.

The deal is that a bunch of disreputable news sites spread a patently false rumor. The truly astounding thing is how some people continue to believe the rumor to this day.

Meanwhile for over 16 years GameSpy has operated the most reliable master server in history.

Well then, effective 31 May 2014, GameSpy has promised to cease all services, for real this time.

Good news: Blood II works with OpenSpy instead!

Bad news: OpenSpy status pages are broken.

There should be at least one server listed here:

Ironically, GameSpy status pages still work for now:

Although if there are only three perpetually empty servers anyway, I'm not sure anyone cares.

Hello and welcome back venom. Unfortunately Transfusion proper does not work with some modern gfx cards, there are open gl issues of some sort.

Yes, there's even a Blood2 server on OpenSpy, but no one ever ever plays.

For the record, the best way to run blood2 on vista and above is with dgvoodoo2, directx 11 is required.
