Sorry, that was a server problem which had to be fixed. All's well with the site now.

Cool, some update to Steam has finally fixed the Steam Server Browser so players can casually look and see who is playing where. Probably going to take a while before everyone figures this out and traffic ramps up again...

The team that created a bot for HL2DM tried to help us about a year or more ago, it was the only bot that was even close to be able to add to the 2006 SDK, but it failed. They really needed us to port to the Orange Box which also failed.

This is why it is so important that we push hard on this Steam Greenlight entry so that we can gain access to Steamworks and increase traffic and interest in the mod. The current development team is simply not large enough to port or rebuild the mod. Having the mod running under the new 2013 SDK would definitely make creating bots possible.

Thanks!... Traffic on the servers has been sporatic but some players still think that the mod is not available due to Greenlight. I thought we made it clear on the HL2CTF Greenlight page that we're just looking to get it on Steam, period. But things seems to be getting straightened out so there should be quite a few players over the coming weekend.

I think the holiday weekend messed things up a bit. Ya know, hotdogs, the lake, etc. :)

We should get things arranged for every night over the weekend starting Friday. Crazy cool weekend of games out the nose!

We're trying to arrange some tournaments now, so you guys might be looking forward to the news as there'll be some competition out there. We hope to get some news out this weekend.

If you are doing anything to promote HL2CTF to bring Steam (or even non-Steam) users to our Greenlight page, let us know here or both here and on the Greenlight discussions.

Here is the URL to view and copy to paste into your website, forums etc. to drive players to our Greenlight page:

Message your friends on Steam even if they do not want to join the HL2CTF Group and get them to vote it up!

Nice site. Looks like a very active group. Do you have a group that plays HL2CTF that might want to play some scrimmages?

Zen needs to pick a night where they can all get together and set their server to match mode, all join the same team and take on whoever joins. That would be a nightmare, but would be very interesting... Zen vs. The World. hahaha!

Yeah, I was surprised to see the new servers come online. Hopefully the new ones will give players in those areas better ping and gameplay experience.
