Hi Guys!
There have been some noticeable problems with the server browser, and I'm happy to tell you they have ALL been fixed.
Here are the problems listed below that were destroyed:
- "Find specific server" search functionality was broken.
- Setting a password on your server wasn't actually stopping people from joining.
- Buttons were not clickable after refreshing, the server list.
- Server buttons were not clickable at all, making them pointless.
- It was hard to know if clicking a button was actually doing anything. Feedback has now been added to tell the player when refreshing the server or looking for a game etc.
- Mouse cursor now controllable by gamepad, however some areas it may not work at all. (Use the actual mouse if cursor does not work).
There are still MANY problems that are present in the the mini-games. Here's a quick list of some known issues in no particular order:
- Server not being able to go back to main menu after starting server, going into a mini-game, then returning back to lobby. This will be the next thing fixed as it's fairly significant, especially if the server breaks. (PRIORITY)
- In "PIPEMARE" there are segments completely missing for clients, making it look like huge empty gaps (PRIORITY)
- When returning from a mini-game, the server can't seem to click on any mini-games with the gamepad, they need to use the mouse.
- Player count is sometimes incorrect.
- Sometimes player 1 will go dark in the lobby when a player joins the server, and the new player controls player 1.
- When a player joins a server mid way through a mini-game, weird stuff starts happening and things start breaking. (sometimes hitting the START button and
- Player scoreboard is a "bit" broken.
And many more....
One last thing to note is that the controller not working, is still an ongoing issue and I am still waiting to hear back from valve in regards to them fixing it.
In the meantime, I will be spending some time each day trying to solve the problem myself. It could be solved quickly, or it may take some time, but I will fix this damn issue that is plaguing everyone.
I apologize for these issues, but rest assured, I am working non-stop to fix all these problems to make this as smooth an experience I possibly can.
You guys have been so damn awesome to me, and I appreciate that so much.
Thank you all for playing the Metal Heads demo and trying out the experimental online multiplayer update!
You ROCK!
