Here we go again.

Hey I'm just trying to buoy peoples' spirits, as there seems to be a lot of undue grumbling about steam.

It's not great, but it's what we've got and quite frankly no matter how much people like Oddball whine about it I don't see the developers going back to that sort of model.

UNDUE!! your a moron...either that or you just don't read the posts...your beloved steam is NUKING the MP servers on a daily basis!...there are 5 servers in CLOD right now and over 30 on HL! there would be more in CLOD but i know a few got tired of babysitting there server because of Steams daily purges...even as screwed as this game is right now there would be ALOT more private and public servers up if we could use HL .

Whine? really..im not the naive fanboi who started the post extolling the benefits of steam WITH OUT HAVING A CLUE as to what steam was doing!

S! have a nice day

[CaptainDoggles]

Well this got ugly quick.

Learn to spell before you call someone else a moron, little boy. You+are = you're, as in "You're in need of an attitude adjustment."

The word "your" indicates a possessive case, as in "Your attitude is piss-poor."

Firstly it's not my "beloved" steam, let me quote one of my previous posts to you:

There are how many games on steam right now? How many tens of thousands of counterstrike servers alone? Probably another twenty thousand team fortress 2 servers on top of that and all of them running fine.

Do you think that it's a problem with steam that somehow manifests itself for our game and our game only?

Or maybe if you used a little bit of logic do you think that maybe it's a bug in CLOD's dedicated server code? Hmmmmmmm let's meditate on this for a second and really mull it over. I could rattle off a list of 30 games and I bet if I went and checked, they all would have functioning dedicated servers.

You and your attitude are counterproductive. Bitching and moaning about the sorry state of multiplayer is what's killing multiplayer.

It's a bug, they happen, and it'll get fixed in due time. I suspect the developers have a lot on their plate at the moment. In the meantime, I was playing this afternoon in a server with 40+ people and it was super fun!

If you maybe go back and learn to read, you'll see I was trying to highlight a feature of steam that a) many are unaware of and b) some might find useful, like they did in hyperlobby.

You can call that fanboyism if you want. I'll call it being positive. Hyperlobby isn't coming back. Jiri isn't reliable and the game doesn't work the same way as il2fb does, so hyperlobby isn't compatible. Do you think stomping your feet is going to magically make things better? Go ahead and try but in the meantime I'm going to continue to make the best of a less than ideal situation.

And again, it's not steam that's some how out to get us, it's a bug in the dedicated server code.

You should take the time to educate yourself on the issues before you have a nutty on the forums; it just makes you look silly.

and the whole CLOD community feels warm and fuzzy now knowing that counter stroke and team dateless 2 are running without problems...because that is why we bought CLOD....

hmmmmm are the CLOD servers logging themselves off? trying using LOGIC before you start preaching.... if someone's server on HL has a bug IT DOES NUKE ALL THE OTHER ONES! and as for you list of 30...who cares! we are talking about CLOD....

40..oh my..for a game that can support 128 that really is impressive...OH WAIT. ..A P2P disconnect happens when you get close to 60 that disconnect happens with steam...BUT im sure thats a bug that will get fixed in time..as long as my bitching moaning and attitude don't get in the way...

teach me to read little boy...your pointing out crap without the facts...who cares about chat when the servers cannot stay running...what are they going to talk about?...make bets on how long a server will be up?!?!?

positive? you are anything but...all you doing is acting like you have something to contribute but you DON'T. pointing out some useless feature of steam does nothing to fix the
'bug in the dedicated server" as you called it...speaking of education...did you wright the HOW TO on setting up a dedicated server?...nope my bad you figured out why the ATI cards were under clocking....
while were on the subject what do you recommend for writing a GUI for the C# scripting language ? MONO?...

S!

I don't understand why you're getting so upset about this.

You came into this thread with a major chip on your shoulder, all sarcastic and unhelpful. You get called out on it and now you're throwing a temper tantrum.

That's not how we play bridge, son.

I started this thread to help people out, maybe try to foster some community growth. Not sure why you've got a problem with that you worthless piece of trash.

Go troll somebody else's thread. I've reported you to the moderators.

And for the record I use Visual Studio when I write my C# code. I like the intellisense better than mono's version of it.

Can't help but agree with this. I've played all manner of MP games via Steam servers and never had an issue, though I admit I've not taken CloD online yet. I don't get the hatred for it, I really don't. Any issue is far more likely to lie within the netcode for CloD itself, rather than with Steam.

OP's idea was a good one. Let's make use of what we have.

thats the problem..you DON'T understand...reported me to the moderators..oh dear I imagine you clutching your mommy's leg right now crying into her apron...

why dont you do us both a favor and admit you don't know as much as you think you do when it comes this game.
you made a post "trying" to be helpful without realizing exactly what a PITA steam is right now for the MP set and then you make a naive comment about HL....how did you that was going to end?

S!

p.s as a side note since you use VS and know C# have you thought about making a GUI for the scripting language?
