hehehe, I was the demoman that got swarmed by the heavies.

Man, it was fun, I put up a fight, but there were too many sandviches.


...too many sandviches...

Much fun was had this Tuesday on the Escapist's UK TF2 server.
Whoever compiled this was a genius. Makes me want to get a PC copy of TF2 and join in the festivities...but how many copies of one game can one have?

Please add me to the Steam Group, and I shall bring along long words, such as floccinaucinihilipilification.

I play TF2, L4D, Obsidian Conflict (Sven Co-op 2, really), Pirates Vikings and Knights II and I really want to get into Garry's Mod but I don't really know where to start, if anyone would be kind enough to show me one day (I know two of the games I listed aren't on the proper list, but they're so much fun! Especially Obsidian Conflict...).

My Steam name is in my profile. Fank-ooo.

Yo, put me down for TF2 and HL2 DM. Also you should probably add MW4 seeing as it's about to be released for free and the servers are gonna flood with noobs like myself.

As some of you may have noticed, we've had members of both the |DOH| Clan and [22g] playing with us regularly (Macca, Virus Nilsson, Mr Flibble, Kryton etc). I extended an open invite to the clans a few weeks ago, and Macca has come back to me.

Post by Macca from over on the 22g forums:

"Nice one Smiffy mate :D
Had some crackin' games with you guys recently... on various servers
And of course we'd like to return the favour and openly invite all of you [ESC] guys to any of our games we're involved in. You guys seem to have the same sort of ethos as 22g has :) , so please extend our invite to all of the [ESC] guys on our behalf."

22g have their own servers for L4D and TF2, as well as Half Life 2 Death Match.
Server list:

83.142.226.105:30015 is L4D #1
83.142.226.105:30025 is L4D #2
83.142.226.105:30035 is L4D #3
83.142.226.105:28015 is TF2 Server

So yeah, go along and have a game. They're all nice guys, mostly UK based.

To connect to specific L4D servers:
Since remembering ip's can be a pain, a good way to do it is make a specific .cfg file which you just execute from the console.


How to do it
Step 1) Open up Notepad.

Step 2) Add the following text:

sv_cheats 1
ms_force_dedicated_server 83.142.226.105:30035


Note that you can use any server IP, the example here uses 22g server 3.

Step 3) Save the file as a name you'll easily remember (I used my nick) but make sure you change the extension from .txt to .cfg so in my case I saved wonderbanana.cfg.

Step 4) Place the file in your Left 4 Dead cfg folder. This is normally located somewhere like C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\left 4 dead\left4dead\cfg (left 4 dead twice in this path is not a mistake)

Step 5) When you are lobby leader and the lobby is full, don't click search for server. Simply bring up your console and type exec wonderbanana.cfg (my example, obviously use your filename).

Note: This only works if the server you are trying to connect the lobby to is empty!


Multiple .cfg's
Krytie just made a good point after I wrote this in that you could quite easily have different .cfg files for a few different servers if you have a few favourites. So you could do 22g1.cfg, 22g2.cfg, 22g3.cfg etc.

I thought you were cracking a joke about Modern Warfare 4 and the whole domain hostage thing.

Anyway, I finally have a steam account. Add me for TF2, I'll buy more games once I get some more money.
