Server Name

This guide covers the 'Server Name' section for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. Learn how to find and use server names to connect to multiplayer matches.

Hey there! So, you're diving into the multiplayer world of Advanced Warfare and want to know about server names? It's a pretty straightforward concept, but super useful for finding specific games. Think of a server name as the unique identifier for a particular online match you can join. It's how the game keeps track of who's playing where.

While Advanced Warfare doesn't have a dedicated 'Server Name' field you'd manually type into like some older games, understanding the concept helps when you're looking for specific community-hosted servers or trying to join friends. Usually, you'll connect to games through the game's matchmaking system, which automatically finds a server for you based on your settings. However, if you're part of a clan or have friends hosting a private match, they'll often share the server details, which might include a server name or IP address.

How to find server info (if applicable):

• Friends List: If a friend is hosting, they'll usually invite you directly or tell you the server name/details.
• Community Sites/Forums: Sometimes, dedicated communities will list public servers they're running. Keep an eye on forums related to Advanced Warfare.
• In-Game Browser (Limited): While not as robust as in some PC titles, you might see some server information when browsing available games. Pay attention to the names that pop up – they can sometimes give you a clue about the game mode or host.

Don't stress too much about manually finding server names for public matches. The matchmaking will handle that for you. But if you're trying to connect to a specific game hosted by someone you know, this is what they'll likely be referring to!
