Obviously, Valve wants new players to be able to try out the game without ending up in some pay2win or other bad server. Why not just have popups explaining the game when it's first launched? There's already a popup pointing to the Mann Co. Store button (lol), why not label the other main menu buttons as well?
Play Multiplayer <-- [ Click this button to automatically find a server ] Play Co-op <-- [ Click this button to play Mann vs. Machine ] Servers <-- [ Click this button to search all available games based on your own filters ] And when you open the server browser for the first time, point to the filters, explain what they do, explain what tags are, etc. Dr. McKay www.doctormckay.com On Fri, Jan 24, 2014 at 3:24 PM, dan <needa...@ntlworld.com> wrote: > On 24/01/2014 19:57, Rick Dunn wrote: > >> Everything you've said is perfectly relevant and 100% besides the point. >> You are talking to a list of people who have been running TF2 servers >> since >> its release.
