General October 6, 2018 Share General October 6, 2018 Hey, does anyone still play? I try to play every now and then, the servers are usually empty. I took a long break, finished school, got a job, got my own place and I actually started a family, my daughter is already 1, lol man time flies. Anyways if anyone still plays man add me up, like I don't play too often, maybe a few times a month but yeah I'm down, and yes I have a mic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

looneypumpkin October 7, 2018 Share looneypumpkin October 7, 2018 Welcome back General. Congrats on the family and baby. Time does fly, mine turned 4 this May. Lots of people still play but very sporadically. We try do play every Saturday night for sure, but aside from that it's been spotty lately with people growing up, getting lives and playing other games. Lots of new releases coming out....

Hanster02 October 13, 2018 Share Hanster02 October 13, 2018 (edited) There's no one in the games because it's hard to get into the game. No server listing, no direct connect via website. I had to ask MERC how to use OPENSERVERBROWSER... What average player knows how to use that. FIX THE ISSUE! Am I the only one? Why isn't anyone talking about it? Ever since the website change, L4D2 Servers are dead. OLD BOY Edited October 13, 2018 by Hanster02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
looneypumpkin October 14, 2018 Share looneypumpkin October 14, 2018 Yeah lots of things are broken the last couple of weeks.. I can only hope that they get fixed soon. It really has hurt our numbers because people either can't connect, or don't know if anyone is on, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanster02 October 14, 2018 Share Hanster02 October 14, 2018 Looney, SAVE L4D2 I bet most of the casual members don't know how to use Open Server Browser, so they think GC Servers disappeared. Please fix it soon. L4D2 is nothing without GC Servers. Don't force me to play OVERWATCH. I'm too old to learn new games. My 6 yr old kicks my butt in Overwatch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
looneypumpkin October 14, 2018 Share looneypumpkin October 14, 2018 Don't play Overwatch. Only L4D2. L4D2 is life. Just open the console and join, or have someone invite you for now. Weekends/nights and some afternoons are the best time. I'm trying to poke some folks to fix stuff, but it's hard with life and work unfortunately. I wish I could fix it myself, but I don't know what I'm doing, nor do I have the access. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAlighieri October 14, 2018 Share DAlighieri October 14, 2018 (edited) I'm with Hanster on this. The website changes broke enough that it's killing the community. The fact that there's no one both capable and willing to address this is not good. I think this is the death for GC L4D2 unless something changes. It's especially frustrating because it's not even totally clear what benefit was to be had from changing the website in the first place. EDIT: Oh, it doesn't help that Steam changed it's UI a few weeks/months prior, and now it's harder than ever to just join in on a friend's game, because over half the time it doesn't show them as online, much less playing the game even when they're in the GC server.

Codrut January 14, 2019 Share Codrut January 14, 2019 (edited) Hi all ! Congrats General. It was fun growing up with you all. Hope you all do well. Sadly I believe it is the death of GC community. Let's not be sad that is over, let's be happy that it happened. Hope you all the best in life ! Edited January 14, 2019 by Codrut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I've never really used the website. I think the frustrating part is that there is plenty of people that are both capable and willing to address the issues they just don't have access to do so. I definitely don't think the community is dead but has certainly seen a decrease in activity. Which I suspect is mainly due to the reason listed in this thread.
