Re: [hlds] Status
Where once Valve was an innovator in the way we play online games they have no become a force of complete destruction to the way we play PC games. By reverting to a console style server browser they have devolved their game into an Idoit's Guide to Online Gaming. This is just another move on the chess board to marginalize server admins and take complete control of the gaming experience. Anyone who doesn't see that is blind. I had a little respect for them left after TF2 and it is now gone. Keep pissing off admins, Valve, its always good to bite the hand that feeds you. I'm sure those uneducated gamers out there that you are catering to will step up to the plate when all of us are gone. Good luck with that.

Re: [hlds] Status
What he's saying is that via the server browser, there is no guarantee that any more players will join the game...thus you have only bots to help you. With the matchmaking system, if someone hits quickplay, it will drop them into a game already in progress. Also, there seems to be a bug on loading of the second map in Windows where the game will intermittently disconnect and reconnect for some clients...can anyone reproduce this? http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=747876 On Tue, Nov 11, 2008 at 6:40 PM, Dj Satane <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Let me get something straight, Erik wrote: " When a player or two leaves > Left 4 Dead the game suffers quite a bit, and we were worried that the > server browser model wasn't the right one for this game." > > Erik, you don't explain the matchmaking how it solves the problem you > are talking about.

Let me get something straight, Erik wrote: " When a player or two leaves Left 4 Dead the game suffers quite a bit, and we were worried that the server browser model wasn't the right one for this game." Erik, you don't explain the matchmaking how it solves the problem you are talking about. How does "console style" matchmaking solves the problem of people leaving a left 4 dead game? How does server browser supposedly does not solve this problem?
