MODS available directly through steam

    I really hope this increases both awareness and the playerbase of Source mods (which is damn low, at least here in Australia). A suprising amount of gamers are completely oblivious to mods.

    You got ripped off R_Yell. I would have thought FoF's unique gameplay, regular content updates and continual improvement would make it an obvious choice.

    I'm very curious about what's involved for a mod to become a part of Steamworks.

    Won could automatically update mods and host servers for fast dls and updates?

    No

    So finally Steam now is now able to do what HL and WON could do more than 5 years ago...

    I have no idea what you're talking about.

    If there's any mod that deserves attention, it's Fistful of Frags. No Guns (melee, dynamite, bow only) matches in FoF with friends is some of the best fun I've had multiplayer ever.

    Thank you, it's always nice to know people enjoys with FoF

    I think, and I'm completely honest here, FoF doesn't have more right to be there than the mods they picked. And I'd pick mods like PVK2 or Empires before FoF, there's a lot of quality out there, and more coming like Offlimits, Neotokyo... And if Valve is interested in singleplayer, The Willows looks like something to look for

    I was planning to release FoF 2.0 at the end of this week, ported to OB + many nice additions. Then knew about all these mods coming through Steam pretty much the same day Funny coincidences. But yeah, I hope more people plays mods, outside those behind Valve's umbrella.

    The problem is due to allot of server admins not updating their servers for the new steam release. Theres always going to be a transition period where things get a little messed up.

    Dystopia 1.2 and Eternal Silence are available through Steam now too.

    I played Eternal Silence when it first came out and didn't like it at all. The ship to ship combat was decent but super simplistic, but the landing on foot parts was where it was totally horrible. You die as fast as a Counterstrike guy in ES, and the enemy team can really easily camp the hanger and kill you before you get your bearings when you exit out your ship- and if you do manage to kill a few, the respawn right there in the hanger, or near it.

    Has that changed any?

    Also I really hope this move gets Dystopia a good player base. Its old one was fucking awful. "YOU SUCK, NEW PLAYER, GTFO OUR MOD *bemoans there's only half a dozen Dystopia players*"

    Haha, funny that you mention this. You probably can't imagine that in a critical situation in which you lose the current objective, one of the new guys is "exploring" the map.. You should see it this way.

    But for 1.2 there is a brand new new-player-guide for everyone who wants to kick some ass. http://www.dystopia-game.com/newplayerguide.php
