Not that it is my intention to keep posting off topic, if people were allowed 
to s**t up a mailing list with generic stuff like this, then what is the point 
in a mailing list other than to spam? It's not a general admin mailing list, 
it's a mailing list for the HLDS software by VALVe, and is also used for it's 
successor, SRCDS. It's not a place to soapbox or to gather public interest.

Re: [hlds] No dedi files CoD MW2

2009-10-24 Thread Steven Hartland
It is actually Valve related as its being launched on the steam
platform, which on the sales page has nothing about this critical
flaw. So letting potential server admins for this game know, who
will be on this list, that there is going to be no server is a
relevant point.

Anyone not aware of this could buy the game, from steam, rightly 
assuming it works in the same manor as any other well designed
FPS, especially given its heritage. The result being a total
waste of their money, so the more people that are aware of this
retarded decision by IW the better IMO.

That's before you consider the fact that if IW are allowed to get
away with this then others like Valve etc may think its also a
good idea; and your next iteration of CS may also ditch the ability
to run quality dedicated servers. I don't think anyone at Value
would be quite that stupid, but 1 week ago I would have said the 
same thing about IW, and now look where we are!

All gamers, both PC and console, need stick together and support
each other, that means spreading the word about this utter failure.

Hit IW the only place that will make them look up and think, their
wallet! This needs as many customers as possible to be are aware of
the facts, so they can avoid buying what will be one of the worst
online FPS experience ever released on the PC platform :(

The list is a list for the valve dedicated server, anything else will
clutter it up and make it hard to use for its purpose.

 waste of their money, so the more people that are aware of this
 retarded decision by IW the better IMO.

 That's before you consider the fact that if IW are allowed to get
 away with this then others like Valve etc may think its also a
 good idea; and your next iteration of CS may also ditch the ability
 to run quality dedicated servers. I don't think anyone at Value
 would be quite that stupid, but 1 week ago I would have said the
 same thing about IW, and now look where we are!

 All gamers, both PC and console, need stick together and support
 each other, that means spreading the word about this utter failure.

 Hit IW the only place that will make them look up and think, their
 wallet! This needs as many customers as possible to be are aware of
 the facts, so they can avoid buying what will be one of the worst
 online FPS experience ever released on the PC platform :(

The CoD mailing list

has a running discussion about this topic.  It's been going on for quite
awhile now, and is very on-topic there.

As interesting and disappointing as it may be, i agree with Shane here,

The list is a list for the valve dedicated server, anything else will
clutter it up and make it hard to use for its purpose.

 It is actually Valve related as its being launched on the steam
 platform, which on the sales page has nothing about this critical
 flaw. So letting potential server admins for this game know, who
 will be on this list, that there is going to be no server is a
 relevant point.

 Anyone not aware of this could buy the game, from steam, rightly
 assuming it works in the same manor as any other well designed
 FPS, especially given its heritage. The result being a total
 waste of their money, so the more people that are aware of this
 retarded decision by IW the better IMO.

Re: [hlds] No dedi files CoD MW2

2009-10-24 Thread John Gibson
Well we'll be happy to take IW's PC COD fans off thier hands when RO:  
Heroes of Stalingrad ships next year :) We will ship our game with a  
dedicated server, server browser, mod SDK, and all of the features PC  
gamers have come to expect from a AAA FPS.

So I would suggest that rather than petition IW to change thier minds  
about giving thier PC games proper support, throw your support behind  
games from companies giving PC games proper support and features. This  
doesn't just mean TWI's games (although we certainly wouldn't mind  
that) but there are many companies still doing right by the PC for FPS  
games such as Valve, Epic, or Crytek.

That's my 2 cents.
