Title: L4D - I could see you but could not join
Post by: Zootoxin on March 13, 2009, 10:58:17 AM
I wanted to get on L4D last night, I could see that Blunt, Ranger and Benny were on through steam friends.

But when I clicked on join I got an error message saying that the player wasnt playing on any server!

I checked HSLW and our servers were empty....

Went into the game and I could see you guys playing but could not join.

so.....what the heel !

It was summat to do with the latest L4D patch.
It's been fixed by the server fairies now:D

FYI I connected by starting the game and typing "connect 77.108.129.45:27031" into console

My hlsw is showing the lfd servers but my player names aren't showing for those who are connected.

Any ideas on a fix?

Cheers,

It's nothing the admins can fix. Valve borked the last patch - again! :sideways:

Shocking.... I have had some issues seeing who is on the server, but it normaly joins ok. I suppose wait and see when valve fixes it.
