LoveForPriscillaChan August 7, 2012 Share LoveForPriscillaChan Member August 7, 2012 I just got this game as part of the steam summer sale. How do I go about joining the GC server? When I click on "online" -- I only see map names. There is no server browser. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lookback August 8, 2012 Share Lookback Member August 8, 2012 (edited) Go into your console by hitting the tilde (~) key and type: connect l4d.gcftw.com - worst case, it is full and you won't be able to join immediately - just keep trying in that situation. Or just say out loud 3 times: "I blame Meng" and you will be instantly transported there by tornado. Edited August 8, 2012 by Lookback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackieChan August 8, 2012 Share JackieChan GC Alumni August 8, 2012 It's "connect l4d.gcftw.com" in your console. Or type "openserverbrowser" and bam, there is your server browser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aarkovi August 8, 2012 Share Aarkovi Member August 8, 2012 You mean I don't have to type out the full "l4d.gcftw.com:27015"? Then again, it's almost natural to type now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattKemp August 8, 2012 Share MattKemp Member August 8, 2012 Haha it's almost second nature to do 'connect 216.52.148.77:27015' for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked killing you through that wall you hid behind on Hard Rain when I went solo to rescue that guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValenAlvern August 8, 2012 Share ValenAlvern Member August 8, 2012 Technically, they could just View>Servers on Steam itself and join from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least I was able to spawn a tank right after and start the unraveling of your team. Edited August 8, 2012 by Aarkovi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveForPriscillaChan August 8, 2012 Author Share LoveForPriscillaChan Member August 8, 2012 Thanks -- I was able to join for around 5 minutes and went 0-5. Good thing the game does not keep track of K/D ratio. What does buying do btw? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does buying do btw? Survivors can buy weapons, ammo, health, and other objects. Infected can buy more slots (like being able to use 5 chargers at once rather than the default 2 spawned at a time), as well as spawn witches, horde, and tanks. Also, if you don't want to be raged at by other players, read, my friend http://gamerscoaliti...nds-list-binds/ http://gamerscoaliti...or-new-players/ For binds, I'd strongly recommend being able to bind the buy, heal, and points commands. Maybe ammo if you should choose. But buy and heal are pretty much a staple in not getting slaughtered on this server.

Lookback August 8, 2012 Share Lookback Member August 8, 2012 (edited) Yeah, you may want to take a little time on campaign and 4v4 before trying this server, we would like you stay playing the game. We ARE happy you are here though Oh, and aside from what he said above, avoid listening to Aarkovi at all costs - he is quite new(b!) at the game too.

samurai nightling August 8, 2012 Share samurai nightling Member August 8, 2012 Oh man, new to the game and starting in a high-skill, high-modded, high-player count server. If you havent played any of the L4D games, I would play some campaign mode and 4v4 vs first to get the basics on what does what and how to use the infected classes. Then after your comfortable come back and read the help topics we have here. They list most of the commands and what they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This server welcomes all but this isn't your typical easy-going server. Everything is crazy, we are crazy, I mean look at Lookback's avatar...can't trust a guy like that.
