***OFFICAL*** Left 4 Dead Thread!

Thanks for the game Dingle, Midnight, Butcher et al.

I know I can be a hinderence at times. :)

Just need to learn the most used tactics as most games I play, the infected are positioned in the same way most of the time.
 
Yes, due out tomorrow, so it'll be late in the evening. Personally I'll be on on Wednesday for some ocuk games, probably not tomorrow night. Some good games tonight guys, some funny moments in versus again.

(Knub running from me as tank, close then we run past a car, car hit, knub down :D)

No problemo. It's actually fun having someone who doesn't know the ins and outs of every last part - makes for some great lols. :D
 
Playing now with a graphics card below min spec. Has made things a bit interesting. All glass is just solid purple and turns black when its smashed so i cant see through any of them. Fire doesnt appear on my screen, cant hear the witch at all or tank music. :/

Lol..what graphics card?

I wouldn't have thought that it would affect the witch or tank sounds though...
 
Tonight is going to be a state of limbo I think! Might try and sneak on for some sort of game but with anticiapation of the patch being released (not likely to be playing until Wednesday for me) it might be worth just chillin :)

So can't wait for tomorrow, going to be so good. I can't decide what to do first, a new campaign and then survival or just jump straight into survival :D

I can imagine survival getting annoying because it will get to the point where all hell is breaking loose around 5minutes and longer and you just get to the same point and die! Still...aww yeaah!
 
I personally will be trying to play some survival if I get the time.

I'll also be adding a third server (OcUK 3). This will be with the same search key as my other two (ocuk1).

Duude, that is legendary!

We were talking last night in a lobby when failing to get on OCUK1&2 when they were full, about how it would be good if we could somehow expand the OcUK L4D server empire.

I think i sent you a message about OCUK2 and it defaulting to coop for some reason, dunno why but we had trouble joining it through search key last night - where as 30mins later I saw it had filled with another OcUK game...wierd.

I think the broken server (6?) is still normal "ocuk" key. That server is still quite borked, performance issues over anything. I know it was Seani or Decto who ran them but I don't remember.

Anyway one of those guys must have a working server but still set to "ocuk" searchkey instead of "ocuk1". It would be great if they could fix the issue(s) and update the key but of course, it's all to do with time, resources, etc.

We all get a free service which is awesome and I'm sure I speak for all when I say we appreciate them A LOT! Although we did wonder how badly the ones we do have will get hammered when the new update is released.

Atm for example; ocuk1 and 2 should be or are 8 man for versus (although can be used for coop, seems wasted tbfh). I would say it would suck if we only have 3 servers and 2 lots of 4 people are playing survival mode on them, would mean more people lose out in the long run.

Perhaps ocuk could be reserved for 8 man vs games if possible (at least for a week or two?). Anyone who wants to do survival can just join any random server for 4 people to be honest - they aren't hard to come by and you are allowing more slots for OcUK'ers overall.

Just a thought as I think it's going to be busy for a fortnight or so!
 
Yeah, as far as I'm aware it's decto that has sorted his server out - Seaniboy was meant to be closing his down? Or perhaps Seaniboy *has* closed his and decto's is still knackered? I don't know - it'd be good to know for sure. Decto was OcUK 6 and Seaniboy OcUK 5 (and later 4).

Just to ask for more clarification about this - are any of the servers apart from mine (1 and 2 currently) working properly? If one of them is I need to know which one and i'll contact the owner and ask them to change the search key. If not, I'll just carry on using "ocuk1" for my servers and perhaps also change the group key so that the others don't show up in the 'group server' bit in L4D.

Originally I ran 4 servers (OcUK 1 - 4) and had two of them set to Vs and two set to coop. This turned out to be kind of pointless as the lobby would override vs or coop mode with its own settings. As such, I've not bothered changing this side of the initial map choice...It'd be simple enough to update it though and I'll try to get that done today/tonight when I enable the third server.

I could possibly enable a fourth server of my own again at some point but I'll have to balance this against the other applications running on the (physical) server.
