[For beta 3.0] How to Fix Server Issues

<< < (6/8) > >>

steven_m64:
valve releases "fixes" that break things all the time.

postponing things is often counter productive due to that fact, its better to just go with the flow.  :P

Wake[of]theBunT:
Actually this is the first time a valve update has broken our OrangeBox version from being at least playable for all players. There has always been little server browser bugs the testers endured from time to time, but never substantial so that we wouldnt release 3.0 on time. I still think some people here dont know the facts and thus arent in the position to say we should or shouldnt be releasing.

Our patch is basically ready but we have not tested it at length in this recent update. So we will take at least a week at *postpone* status since an issue may still exist, and we feel its negative to our mod to do otherwise than our decision, and its not in need of debate :)

This in no way is our fault but if we release prematurely we then take on some responsibility and if servers are confusing for people to navigate they will then blame us not valve ; since the majority wont check our forums/site, just leaving our playerbase without investigation. We dont want that. We like smooth conditions for our fans, not workarounds, and its actually up to valve to provide mods with that evironment of ease.

I understand what you are saying wake...however, it has seemed like valve "released" a fix...and as for as that update shows, it seems like they aren't aware of any more problems. I mean the last update "fixed incompatibility with mods" obviously didn't fix it...and then from the sound of this update saying "you need to use this installer since the new files aren't compatible with the old one" sounds like they are just saying..."screw it, we don't want to figure it out".....which seems kind of sad to me.

Am I understanding this right? Does Valve STILL have no clue that these problems are still problems??? or are they ACTUALLY working on a fix??

I do agree with you wake, KM, and everyone that says not to release 3.1 yet, but i just want to know if Valve REALLY is aware of the problem since it has been over a month and they haven't fixed it.

PPK:
I bet Valve is aware; someone must have sent them an e-mail reporting the problem. Probably the GES team did.

CCsaint10:
no offense PPK, but do any devs know the answer? And if so, what is left to fix?
