Eric said there would be PR to inform players about the new tab. Eric said there would be some UI changes that would supposedly make it easier for players to find custom servers.
Is this going to happen before I'm forced to shut down my servers? A quick look at the custom tab servers and oh, a majority of the servers are empty. Valve, once again, I think it would be beneficial to both players and server ops (who by the way, are the blood of your game) to list all servers in ONE list, while having the additional filter options available to players if they want to filter servers. Then there will be no need to babysit the list and look for naughty servers who put themselves in the wrong list, players that want vanilla can easily find vanilla, and everybody else can easily find servers. Also, by forcing servers to the custom tab if they have any tags, you basically eliminate the use of sv_tags for any servers. What if a server op wanted to add their host, or location, or any other misc data about their servers in the tags to make it easier for players to find their servers? If they do that, they might as well shut down their server. I remember valve saying that the tags system was done and did not need any beta testing... - voogru. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
