You can't honestly blame people for thinking TF2C is dead, though. You may have rated his post disagree, but he does raise a lot of valid points

I think this is a good example of perception is reality. He raised some very valid points about how the site/forum are more or less abandoned from our point of view. That alone can indeed make others disenchanted with picking this mod up because if the dev's can't be arsed to maintain the very basics, what will the final product be, and why should anyone care?
[QUOTE=Moonrat;51019326]Yeah, this is a problem of mine too. Nobody is playing TF2C, and I don't blame theme. Beta 4 was a bare bones release back in [I]April[/I], nearly half a year ago. There has been little news on the game since. Even after that vote to ask how much transparency that we wanted from the devs, there is little to no news on the game.
One of the exciting things while waiting for 2.0 was the progress updates we saw. How you guys showed off the new menu and loading screens. It's not much, but it shows us that "yes, this is happening" and we have a reason to be excited for this new update. I can understand wanting to keep some things secret for the sake of surprising us, but I don't see any reason why you guys can't show something off. Even if it's something small like an updated menu screen or a screenshot of Wiseau's detail pass, it'd tell us "yes, this is happening"
What reason does anyone have to believe that this mod is still alive? I don't think I could give a very positive answer on that, especially with 2.0 being put on "Indefinite Hold." The forums and main site have become un-maintained, and while I know the main site is getting a future update, the Forums don't look like it. And you could say the forums weren't the greatest place, because you'd be right, but they gave people an official place to be for the game besides this thread.
Now I'm not gonna say I'm a professional. I have a bit of an idea on advertising and stuff, but not professional experience. But what'd I'd do is take some of that new stuff from The Closed 2.0 Beta. Like a new weapon or two, map updates, and some polish, and put it into a new Beta 5 release for the game, to show people "yes, this is still happening" Then get that Tyler guy from VNN to do a video on it, and get a fuckton of advertising out. Having direct contact to someone with a advertising platform of that size is a great tool for someone attempting to get their game out. Then release those previews and teasers you guys used to on this thread, building hype for the update. If you did it good you could probably ride the Beta 5's hype right into a full 2.0 release without having to worry about the enthusiasm drying up before you reach that point.
Give people a reason to play the game, and they'll play the game. So I doubt anything would be better than a good Beta release with new people jumping on to it. Maybe use the steam group for more events to keep people playing the game. I don't see any reason why that's not done, other than a lack of free time from the devs. As someone who has more or less followed this game for a year and a half, I'd rather not see it die now, so giving TF2C a kick when it needs it is probably not a bad idea[/QUOTE]
I agree with the advertising type of thing to get word out. I've been (minutely) trying to get someone like Muselk to notice the game in the best way I can manage: Comment asap when a video is posted, but with so many people doing "FIRST" comments and such, it gets drowned out.

Like I said in the post, add some of the things, and keep the best stuff a surprise that is revealed at the big launch of 2.0. As it sits now, I have no reason to play TF2C. There hasn't been anything happening since April, 4 months ago. And it's not that I think new stuff has to be released every month, it's just that there has been nothing at all. Barring a few minor showoffs, the important, interesting additions are a complete secret, which is boring as hell. I don't want to see everything because the surprise factor, but I want to see [B]SOMETHING[/B] of worth.

This mirror should work, but I haven't checked to make sure it isn't modified, someone just sent it to me, I think it was Msalinas. If it is modified lemme know and I'll upload a fresh copy of Beta 4 that I have kept on my harddrive.

It does. I don't see any servers running in the browser so I have no idea if multiplayer is working

The beta_test part of the SDK was removed a while ago, so the install guide is outdated. SDK comes with the beta included already so there's no need to set it.

help give_icon
Gives you the exact syntax.
Yeah the installation guide has been outdated for a while, sorry about that! We're also working to fix the download being broken but our web guy has been MIA for a few days.
If you need any additional assistance feel free to add me on Steam.
Does that just mean there are no servers up right now?

Is your game on beta4 and on on none opt out of all beta programs?
[QUOTE=MaartenS11;51034862]Is your game on beta4 and on on none opt out of all beta programs?[/QUOTE]
yes and yes. Assuming the Auto Updater is B4.
There's a good number of servers, something must be wrong with your installation. I'm not entirely sure what it might be off the top of my head though.
