To be honnest, i think he is right. We don't whine, but instead we give feedback (some feedback is a little negative formulated.. but its feedback). I'm sure they all read the mailinglist (hi, guys!!!), but its sometimes annoying when you don't know a "roadmap". For example, all the feedback we have given.. when does it gets updated? And most important, does it get updated? Game is out for almost a week now and we still haven't got a update. We don't know when the update is coming.
We indeed contribute to the success of the left4dead games. I'm sure that valve won't going to host lots of left4dead servers. Giving support to game buyers is a really important factor, but giving support to servermanagers (like update info/ roadmaps and maybe server.cfg instruction) is also a important factor! -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Namens Olly Verzonden: dinsdag 25 november 2008 11:55 Aan: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Onderwerp: Re: [hlds] How about some server instructions and server.cfg files? They don't make it a pain.. If you don't know how to setup servers, then maybe you shouldn't be doing so. There are 1000's of other servers that are up and working fine without posting a whine thread. 2008/11/25 ccfan4326 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > What I meant is that those who rent and host L4D servers are helping > to support the game.
