Well, it took a while, but I've finally updated the SRSLY 4 Dead server to L4D2. It is now a group exclusive server, so we can use it easily for private games (expert, etc.). Anyone who wants admin access should let me know. I'll give you the details.


The server should show up in the "group servers" listing in the L4D2 main menu. Look for "SRSLY 4 Dead 2". :D

As of today, our dedicated server us up and running. I just tried it out with a bunch of pubbers and it seems to work beautifully. My ping hovered around 35ms, there were no crashes or other incidents and gameplay was smooth.

The server can be administrated both in-game using console commands, and remotely using HLSW. Group admins will recieve the RCon password and server IP the next time I see them.

Ever since the release of the L4D DLC a few days ago, it has become very hard to get a game going. Finding a decent server now takes ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ages (excuse my French), and even if you find one the pings are sometimes horrendous.

Because of this, I have decided to fork out for our own Left 4 Dead dedicated server, hosted by I3D.net and located in the Netherlands. (Good news for Unconnected, I guess ;D ).

(Damn straight, it is !) <-- Unc0nn3ct3d

Having our own server means we can free up the server if it is occupied and then join it without problems. SRSLY4D group Admins will recieve admin login details for the server, so they can free it up (i.e. kick pubbers) whenever we need to use it.

The server should be available by tomorrow.

Yayz!
