Re: [hlds] So many empty servers
It's because of the major design flaw in the MvM matchmaking system. From what Valve has said, MvM matchmaking won't put people in an empty server, even if it's a 6-person party. That's why we have so many empty servers and 10,000 people in matchmaking queue with a wait time of 30 minutes.

Re: [hlds] So many empty servers
When was this stated? IIRC, the old quickplay system wasn't supposed to put you in an empty server (though it sometimes did). The new system was supposed to match N players together and then put them in a server, empty or otherwise.

Re: [hlds] So many empty servers
So If I'm the only person in the party I should be put together in a group with 5 other people and sent to an empty server?

If you check join a game in progress, then you might be placed into a game in progress to fill an empty slot.

The number of people in the party is not relevant to whether you can join a game in progress or not.

Re: [hlds] So many empty servers
I have 9 mvm servers up. Three with passwords, 6 public only running mvm. They are pretty much full 24/7. I'm not doing anything special on those, just appear to be getting a decent amount of traffic from match making. I have three regular servers, they're full 24/7 pretty much by matchmaking as well.

Re: [hlds] So many empty servers
I agree with what T Marler said, my MvM servers have been a lot more empty then full now, what's the deal? -- Message: 8 Date: Wed, 22 Aug 2012 17:47:26 -0600 (MDT) From: T Marler bloodyi...@shaw.ca To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: [hlds] So many empty servers Message-ID: 1562235303.21667270.1345679246205.javamail.r...@cds030.dcs.int.inet Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 There are way more empty servers than populated ones.

Re: [hlds] So many empty servers
I jump on every few hours and when empty, restart them. They typically fill within a few minutes. 6 servers. 4 of them had crashed between last night (midnight EST) and when I checked around noon EST. wintel, vanilla install with no mods___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds
