We have discussed that for quite some time now and we are starting some steam group servers soon. Our little community is using steam clients more and more and so we were thinking about that. We have agreed to start testing by reactivating the two offline servers. So we would have on r0r L4D and one L4D2 Realism server as exclusive steam group servers. At the moment I'm not completely sure how to configure the exclusive access for our steam group but we will see.
Yes. We want slowly go away from no steam, so we start the first steam only server. Most of us have already a legit version and on sale days its cheap and ok I think. So its best to follow us this way.
But there will be a server where nonsteam users can still join us right? But we will also have a server where where only group members on steam can join.. Sounds cool.
