Stupid question but will there be a possibility to keep the old system ( maybe 
with a convar ), because in my eyes it's not that bad.

In our continued effort to alleviate the frustration with gamemodes.txt, we 
plan 
to replace the "convar" block in gamemodes.txt with an "exec" block which, 
instead of convar keyvalue pairs, will contain a list of config files to 
execute. This will allow us to continue to define gamemode convar sets while 
allowing community admins to manage their own configs and re-execute them at 
will.

Normally we prefer not to announce such features ahead of time because if the 
feature is aborted or changed due to implementation issues that arise in 
development then it results in confusion. In this case it seems appropriate to 
share our plan to avoid your over-investment in the current setup; some of you 
struggling with gamemodes.txt and gamemodes_server.txt may wish to wait for the 
change.

We're working on it but unfortunately have no ETA.

Have a good weekend.

A main menu that expresses multiple game modes and a centralized matchmaking 
system are the two major new features that required some new infrastructure. 
Hence gamemodes.txt.

We configure our servers with gamemodes.txt but appreciate that you guys prefer 
to configure servers in the old manner, and so we're constantly addressing 
issues that are being reported.

We'll look into cleaning up the knowledge base once the codebase has 
stabilized. 
At the pace that we're implementing changes the best advice is to pay attention 
to this list.

In the meantime I've removed the misleading statement by NGamache, who, btw, is 
not a Valve employee.

Thank you for your patience.
