Didn't you know they aren't doing dedicated servers for L4D2? Instead Valve have listened to the community and they are using IWNET which will take PC gaming in a new and better direction.
There will be much more lag and you'll be limited to 6 players due to the use of low quality home DSL and Cable connections for all the servers, but that's cool as using listen servers prevents cheaters and pirates don't you know? Oh wait that's just Infinity Ward and Modern Warfare 2 wanting to make there PC game more console like so they have to do less work, ignoring all the fundamental facts of hosting and the outcry from the community of course: http://www.petitiononline.com/dedis4mw/petition.html Regards Steve ----- Original Message ----- From: "David A.
