Valve is fucking stupid, removing those convars is basically going against what the source engine is...

Also

"Made ms_force_dedicated_server not require cheats"
aka
"We fucked up sv_search_key and are too gay to fix it"

Already got bronze, silver, and gold medals!

From what I've heard, if you make it to 14 minutes, tanks stop spawning. Which is how people have been going for 30 minutes to an hour +.

Now all I need is a good team, not a pug, to do this...

We were just fucking around and got 6:34 last night, was intense though, we were doing it with a bot instead of 4 players though, we probably could've gone a lot farther, next time we need an extra I'll toss you an invite.

I enjoy the new survivor mode, although it's still filled with bugs :/

The last stand map isn't great though. It seems like almost every wall a zombie can chew through, even a couple brick ones. The top of the lighthouse would be great if the damn railings didn't fall off by a mean looking speck of dust. Also, the only good place is the generator room, where it's just auto shotting it all in a corner, which isn't even skill based.

I haven't played all the maps yet, but the hospital elevator map is pretty horrid as well. You can't get to some of the more desired locations until the zombies break through the doors leading to them (which is just silly), since you can still shoot GIANT holes into the doors.

I did enjoy the airport terminal map though :3

I can really see this being the mode that makes this game boring to play in the future. You will play yourself out in this mode in my opinion.

I'm enjoying the intensity of this still. I still haven't gotten to play this with my 'team' yet though, so I don't know how intense it will be in that case.

Yeah, it's awesome, needs to be more than 4 player survivor mode imo though.

Naw, more than 4 survivors wouldn't make any sense. It's fine as it is.

I can't stand to do random searches anymore. I won't play unless I know the 3 other people I'm playing with.
