Lack of servers: Counter-Strike:Source

When I try to load the huge server list, I only get about 900 servers, while my other buddies are getting over 90,000 or something like that. There are no filters on, and I don't think my firewall is blocking it. Any help?
 
Oh, and speaking of CS:S, whenever I look at people in the distance, they are white. The scenery isn't white, just the people. From close up they are normal. It makes it really hard to tell who is who. Any help? Just started happening with new rig.
 
90,000? I've never played Counter-strike, but that's an awfully high number... 900 seems about right, at least that's around the number of servers I've encountered when playing a popular game online.

As per the white peoples, it could be many things, driver errors, currupted files, bugs, etc. I suggest first visiting the official forums and seeing if it's a common problem, if not then reinstalling driver and/or the game..
 
Well, you're probably right about the driver error thing or something, but I was playing CS yesterday, then I went over to my buddy's house and when he loaded the servers, he had a LOT more than just 900 servers, so I know 900 isn't right...
 
Well last time I had this problem with CS:S I reinstalled it... It only takes a day.
 
Another thing I just noticed... It is slowly loading more and more servers, like 100 every minute... but when it's loading servers, my regular internet doesn't work all the time... Could it have to do with my internet?
 
I would re-install it...

PS: lol when I read your post I though you were racist loool after a second look I understood what you meant :P
 
haha yeah, I wanted to throw in a racist white comment, but thats for a different forum. I'll reinstall next time I want to spend 3 hours doing homework...
 
Towards the server Q, it could be you're TCP/IP setting sure. Windows only allows a certain number of connections (half-open or full) per second. Their could be so many servers TCP is bottlenecking because of 10 per second rule.

It's a funky looking site, but it's legit, just download the English version and change that number( it's an executable that does all the work for you, you just choose a number)! Pre SP2 the number was over 65,000, but you can change it to 50/100 and it would have the same effect, plus you wouldn't want 65,000 connections open at one time, your connection would get slaughtered.
 
Well I found out that it's only doing the white thing on cs_assault, but every cs_assault server. I tried on dust, office, zm, no white figures. Should I reinstall the map?

@hermeslyre: so I should change it to 50?
 
Jah, 50 is vat I have it zet to. You vill only notice ze change vhen you are doing something zat requires many con-current connections at one time, In other words it's not going to miraculously zpeed up your internets.
