Hi,

Does anyone know if its possible to find out the ip address of the server i am currently connected to?

i.e. i connect to a server and join a game without noticing the servername/ip/port etc etc but i wanna let someone else know the server im on??

cheers

Press the Tab key to bring up this screen:

Then in the top left, click the down arrow across from server info:

The server info is usually there, of course the server I chose to demonstrate didn't have it. Typical.

I find the majority of servers i play on do not show it, although it may come back later. I think it is a EA problem possibly.
