I'm fairly positive at this point that Valve just doesn't care about the "Policy of Truth" anymore. The amount of reports sent to them is INSANE, all without reply or with an empty "Oh, we'll look into that at some point.." On Mon, Aug 12, 2013 at 6:50 AM, ics wrote: > I very much agree of wh

0% chance. Technically you can start with any number of players though, assuming you have a plugin that unlocks the maxplayer limit. On Wed, Aug 15, 2012 at 12:07 PM, Benedict Glover wrote: > > What are the chances of allowing a TF2 MvM server to start with more than > 32 players? > > > > From:
