Half-life 2 Deathmatch

Oh god... how difficult can it be to understand that it will be very hard to play when it just got released? Geeeez, just give it some time and more servers will popup, now everyone is trying like crazy. Use some common ****ing sense.

they released a new patch (without posting on steampowered.com) to fix "graphics card crashes caused by incorrect buffer allocations " - looks like it backfired/ didn't get tested with the sdk release and dm development being worked on at the same time

Someone got problems with that, but someone also obvoisuly got problems because of the server load.

Yah, that might be what funked my system. Here's my post that got buried earlier in the thread.

Ok guys, serious problem.  I'm not positive it's related to HL2DM but I didn't want to needlessly start a new thread.

Just a bit ago, I saw this thread, lauched steam and updated.  Got into one game for about two seconds, then the server shutdown.  I clicked quit game and the screen went blank.  Forced a shutdown, rebooted and after the xp boot screen, nothingness again.  Tried last known good -> nothing.  Tried booting into safe mode -> nothing again.  I'm not overclocked or anything like that.  CS: Source and HL2 both ran flawlessly this morning.  I hooked up an old PC to type this message.  Anyone else have this problem?  Anyone have any fresh ideas on how I can fix the comp?  Only other thing I can think of is popping in my XP disk and trying to repair.  I'll be fumbling around looking for that while I wait for a reply.  Thanks in advance guys!  :(

Um, the games are unexpectedly exiting, nothing to do with server load. I think we have the right to complain.

I tried removing and reinstalling HL2DM with no luck. The thing is crashing, as it leaves a minidump file around in the half life 2 deathmatch directory.

That is the exact problem I have. I just tried to load up CS:S but that was a no go either. The thing is I started DM once but after I quit out of it (there were no servers at the time) it wouldn't start again. And yes I have validated DM and HL2 so they are find. I hope there is a fix soon.

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
