team fortress 2 speed connection.

[raghman]

okay so ive been playing tf2 for about 1 year or 300 hours now so im not new, but are all of these new players slowing down the servers or something because now I can't connect to it.
when I can get in the only servers I can join are my favourites not the actual servers.
is it the new players or is it just my computer.

thank you for answering (if you did)

I think Valve screwed up, but it's not necessarily the new players' fault. The master server has been having issues for a lot of people, myself included.

You can also access your history if you just want to play somewhere while Valve finds their slave intern bugfixer.
