RE: [hlds] Crashing DWP servers
Heh, that video demonstrates the problem quite nicely. Wasn't it suggested, a while back when DWP was in beta, to leave pistols entirely out of the equation? Related: if you look at the projected price for the Desert Eagle right now, it's $25K. With an upper limit of $16K on actual earnable money, that's not going to work. Also, from the actual algorithm explanation (at http://steampowered.com/stats/csmarket/algorithm.html): If the pistols were included in the larger pool of prices, they would often become too expensive to afford during the beginning of a match. Isn't that slightly ironic? -- Bart King http://www.bart666.com -- +44 781 219 5654 -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gamer Sent: 29 November 2006 12:02 To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: [hlds] Crashing DWP servers [snip] ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
Re: [hlds] Crashing DWP servers
noone will buy a deagle in the next week - price will decrease (-100% ?) but i guess the algorithm doesnt work correctly - even if THIS week nearly noone will spend 12K - the price will increase... but really: valve isnt sleeping, they will see the problem and work on it... no need for us to comment every bit Leo Bart King schrieb: Related: if you look at the projected price for the Desert Eagle right now, it's $25K.

Re: [hlds] Crashing DWP servers
I disagree. I think that Valve will take a while to fix this problem and people like me rely on this mailing list to let me know of the problems that are likely to crash my servers. In this case, I wonder how many people will have DWP on by the weekend...
