Re: [Csgo_servers] Patch broke CSGO
Hello, Michael I also agree with your arguments. From what I know they are working each day to fix different types of issues. Note that not everything they fix is in the Update Release notes. They can easily fix some buggy script and don’t event bother to name it. Be sure that if you guys mentioned something here, the DEVs DID get it and the possibility that they are checking the issue is almost 100%. Here is my suggestion to all of you guys: When you encounter the problem, try to reproduce it. Remember the steps and post it here. Be specific and exact, after all that’s not reddit or CS:GO Discussions. As you can see I, like the DEV team prefer to read more instead of making “Tolkin” posts without trying to actually solve the issue myself. Remember guys, our community is giant, and the DEV team doesn’t include all ~250 Valve employees. So try to help them by giving specific and exact information. Thanks. ~Nikolay On 20.09.2014, at 02:38, Michael Loveless mloveless1...@gmail.com wrote: You are absolutely right. There is no need for them to have active conversations with us. But, just like what happened the other night when Vitaliy stopped in to at least give us a word about the session error problems, it wouldn't hurt Valve devs to give us meaningful short responses that will let us know they are working on a solution when we are going on for weeks about a specific issue. We understand that there are only a handful of devs working on this game, but there are mountains of problems that are being addressed by the community from small client issues to major server issues. Combine that with the fact we know a large amount of the devs time is spent on Operations, skins, etc...and we have a legit reason to be mad that core issues with the game are seemingly being put on the back burner in exchange for a money grab. How can you move forward so swiftly with so many things that are irrelevant to the actual fluidity of gameplay while seemingly neglecting the most widespread issues?

I KNOW THAT for obvious reasons. Ido, Matt, Vitaliy and the rest of that amazing team are working each day to solve numerous issues. Also, there is a good reason why they don't start active conversations, and that reason is not because some frustrated guy started insulting them. Just be specific when you report the issue, and they will contact you if they need more information.

NFO Servers, probably the most reliable and one of the largest game hosting services in North America, has specifically stated they are no longer offering hosted 128 tick Linux servers to customers EXCEPT upon specific request due to unsolvable lag problems, I quote that from a support ticket discussion with them. There is 1 topic on that subreddit actually related to server operation for every 1000 other garbage posts there are. No need to come here slingin' zingers like ''I'll stop wonder why Valve doesn't commernercate herr'' when no one really cares what happens in a subreddit that has nothing to do with server operation. We have been troubleshooting Valve's dedicated servers for them for the past 2 years. We've been patient time and time again. Some of us are done reporting our problems nicely since we've been trying that for 2 years with almost no response from Valve. How long is anyone supposed to keep being nice for while being almost completely ignored in the process?

Maybe in some countrys like the US or so there is a larger amount of windows-servers which dont have these issues so u get not enough input about that or whatever. But its a fact that linux servers with different linux-distributions, different hardware have this problems and its a fact that this problems start with the update from 10th september. And i would say that nearly 99% of all csgo-servers in europe runs on linux. So YES, this is a major problem! Whatever!

Re: [Csgo_servers] The current situation and a proposal to get this sorted out
I'm running the servers, I'm the one that have to live with the problems in first hand, I have players complaining about them too and not always in a orderly fashion because the players too get frustrated when I cant give them any answers to the problem. But I'm just a guy running CSGO-servers. I know the basics in that area but I often have problems location the source of the issues and gathering the correct and helpful information for the devs.Like the recent lag problems. I know my servers lags. I see the net_graph and the spike in sv/var values when it lags. But that's about it. Ofc I can try to take some basics steps to rule out plugins, etc but I cant do much more. Its frustrating spending hours and hours trying to figure out problems with the servers and then sending mails to this list and not getting any response at all from the people who can help you. After I spend a day to rule out ditt and datt It would be nice that someone knowledge that they know about the problem and that they are looking into it. Otherwise it feels like I'm sitting there with the problems and no options and that's not a good feeling. When I have problems with my internet connection I call my company and they tell me what steps to take to solve the problem or how to gather information they need to solve the problem and that's what I'm missing here. Date: Sun, 21 Sep 2014 02:11:35 +0200 From: proph...@sticed.org To: csgo_servers@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: [Csgo_servers] The current situation and a proposal to get this sorted out This is a mess. Basically, the community suffers from two game issues at the moment: -The session bug -Lag spikes that appeared with the update from 9/10/2014 Oddly enough, those aren't actually the issues. There is only one key issue: There is no (directed) communication. We have two parties here, the devs and the community. We can't expect the devs to do nothing else but to browse through the mails here and endure the people's frustration (and possible insults) and justify theirselves to them. They have better things to do, may it be implementing new features, or doing what we want them to do at the moment, fixing bugs. On the other hand, Valve cannot expect the community to be happy with being kept in the dark. No one can tell me that this is particularly helpful either. Just like we should be understanding towards Valve (given the point I've made above), Valve (who actually hire psychologists to research gamers' behavior, at least according to their job opening tab on their page) is well aware of that, I guess. So let's for a moment focus on what both parties have in common: A lot of effort goes from both sides into making the game work, because they both share a passion for this game. Second of all, both parties want to be understood. So what is needed? Middlemen, who moderate the communication, filter out whatever information there is going around the net community-wise and pick out the stuff for the devs which is actually helpful to them and in reverse work with the community admins. Maybe Valve needs other resources like community test servers (since reproducing the issues is part of them obviously), or dumps, I don't know. Just let these people know and help both parties solve this problem. I sincerely hope that both sides read and understand this.
