Re: [hlds_linux] Disabling auto-balancing
Starting to look more like a bug than autobalance. This post at steam forums looks like it might it explain it well. http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=768756 On Wed, Dec 10, 2008 at 12:08 PM, Jonass wrote: > I agree, it is extremely annoying when trying to play with friends to L4D. > The servers must be autobalance off by default. > > Neil Smith a écrit : > > What if you want to run a match server, where you want the same team to > be > > constant through out the level changes. > > > > +1 for disabling autobalance > > > > 2008/12/10 Mark - hlds list > > > > > >>> - Versus Campaign mode that doesn't alternate teams at all, so we can > >>> > >> choose > >> > >>> whether to be Infected or Survivor from beginning to end. > >>> > >>> > >> I agree with most of what you said, but I don't know anyone who would > >> want to locked to the survivor team on a vs server...

Re: [hlds_linux] Disabling auto-balancing
I agree, it is extremely annoying when trying to play with friends to L4D. The servers must be autobalance off by default.

Re: [hlds_linux] Disabling auto-balancing
What if you want to run a match server, where you want the same team to be constant through out the level changes. +1 for disabling autobalance 2008/12/10 Mark - hlds list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > > - Versus Campaign mode that doesn't alternate teams at all, so we can > choose > > whether to be Infected or Survivor from beginning to end. > > > I agree with most of what you said, but I don't know anyone who would > want to locked to the survivor team on a vs server...

Re: [hlds_linux] Disabling auto-balancing
I absolutely agree on that!! We need an update, Valve! -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von shoskins73 Gesendet: Montag, 8. Dezember 2008 19:23 An: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list Betreff: Re: [hlds_linux] Disabling auto-balancing I agree, this is absolutely horrible. Friend and I have been trying to play Versus on the same team for about a week now (schedules not working out), and we finally did on Saturday, and after the first map I was switched to the other team, losing my turn as Infected altogether and now playing with strangers I don't know. People were getting switched after almost every map, it sucked and completely ruined our game. I didn't play again over the weekend...specifically because of this problem. It's bad enough that after each round I have to play as Survivor when I just want to play as Infected, let alone losing my Infected turns several times through a round and having to play as a Survivor twice on the same map, and 3, sometimes 4 maps in a row because of this auto balance. Valve, please give us... - Versus Campaign mode that doesn't alternate teams at all, so we can choose whether to be Infected or Survivor from beginning to end. - Turn off auto-balance. - Add server selection in the Lobby so we can select a specific server to join to. - Steam group servers...Ping and player info would be useful instead of just a name on the Main Menu. Along with being able to filter this by Ping. IMO, These are the primary things holding back L4D.

Re: [hlds_linux] Disabling auto-balancing
This just happened to me a few times now also.. only thing you can do ingame is kick a player of the other side and ask your buddy to join your side once kicked.
