Re: [hlds_linux] L4D2 updates
From my experience when using best available you end up on some crappy highly modded server no one in the lobby wants to play on and its either back to lobby or rage quits. One thing that I would like to see is a change so that if you can't find a server you don't automatically go into localhost mode. So many people end up on a localhost and don't even know it.

Re: [hlds_linux] l4d sv_downloadurl
I really like that idea. I love to know what ideas where kicked around why the current system was picked verses something like that. On Fri, Jun 26, 2009 at 6:07 PM, Jonah Hirsch crazydog...@gmail.com wrote: If valve were to implement a system where the lobby grabbed a server BEFORE the start game button was pressed, it could solve this problem, a little. Let's say that as soon as you make a lobby, L4D will find a server for you, and tell you that a server has been found and reserved, and it has a timer showing how much time you have left in this reservation (5 minutes?). If that system was created and implemented, then people would be able to download the custom campaigns from the game server (or redirect server specified in the game server) that was grabbed WHILE IN THE LOBBY. Their progress could be shared with everyone, meaning the leader would know when everyone was ready to start. Then, they could just hit Start the Game, and boom, connecting to a server, no time wasted searching for a server or waiting for people to download the .vpk's, as they would be downloaded while the lobby is filling up. Before anyone points out holes in this system: There could be a limit of how many people need to be in a lobby before a server is found. As long as people are downloading the .vpk, the server reservation would be extended, and the leader could start the game before it runs out if people haven't finished downloading. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
