In short, no. As berk says, defrag your local files - the only thing that's happening is your PC loading stuff from disk.

Yay, one of the recent updates seems to have fixed the isse and I can TEEF now

I fraggle rocked my steam cache, seems to have helped a bit. But then again our server had half fallen over and we were all experiencing long load times. I've also enabled v high in the settings, still no slow down, slightly moar polish, it's not that noticeable really because the game is sexy anyway.

Mine is also working, and I shall try and join a game.

Probably sunday if there's one.

On loading times, it's worth remembering that TEEF maps are fairly large compared to CS:S, so it's possible that's why it's taking longer.

Also, the server should be fixed now.

loads faster than BEEF for me.

even faster than FUTARBEEF.

To be fair, Maps are loading really quickly for me, however mine still freezes.

Not quite sure why, as CSS doesn't do it (well, it didn't in the brief test I gave it on this pretty much untested machine).

Drivers for sound and gfx are upto date, chipset isn't but that can be rectifed easily enough.

I'll have to experiment.

In case you're wondering, like I did, this may be the Heavy exploit that was fixed: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Pr1OPy2eOkQ

Unfortunate really, but still

Post by **Dr. kitteny berk** » October 9th, 2007, 13:49

Wouldn't be so bad.

But Valve are breaking the server every fucking day

buzzmong · Post by **buzzmong** » October 9th, 2007, 13:56

Question though, can everyone join games via X-fire for teef? It doens't seem to let me.

Post by **Dr. kitteny berk** » October 9th, 2007, 13:58

Nope, doesn't seem to work at the moment.

http://steamcommunity.com/groups/5punk is most handy

Tell that to valve, it's their issue, not mine

And I would, but valve servers are iffy on bsd.

Your peer has re-set your win socks. That's your problem right there.
