AW: [cod] Server Files

[[OL]YODA]

We have contacted AV Germany 2 months ago...

If you understand German take a look here:
http://www.opferlamm-clan.de/rucod2/av_post/index.html
And in our forum:
http://www.opferlamm-clan.de/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=3292

Guess what?
A mail with the question for a contact-telephone-number - I responded and
wrote them the time, when I am at home after work... Nothing...

I mailed again and asked what´s up... ONE call-try at a time they knew I am
NOT at home...

I mailed again, I also made a suggestion for a fix-date to make the call,
but no reaction anymore...

And asking the support only gives no answer or just some standard stuff...
Sorry, but my opinion of AV isn´t the best anymore...

Your not going to get anywhere by posting on IWN, your better off sending
your inquires directly to Activision via their support line.  This is the
only way you're going to be heard.

GSP's should encourage their customers to send Activisioin a polite and to
the point message regarding the Linux patch for 1.3.

Activision should also consider informing their customers of the
ramifications of updating their windows client to x version, while they work
on the Linux server patch.  You would also think they (Activision) would
consider the amount of Linux based servers currently running their games and
wait to release both patches, at the same time.

As for your customers and the people over at IWN telling you to run windows
servers, let them know how much more it's going to cost them, then see how
fast they want you to more your business over to Windows.

The only good thing about all this is this is more then likely the last
patch CoD2 will ever get thus you will not have to worry about getting both
windows and Linux bins at the same time ever again.

Hey Dave, what about asking this AV/IW? We all should run into their doors
to make them awake, they are doing what all publishers & developers are
doing since years... It´s time to change thinking...

Or write it down here:
http://www.iwnation.com/Forums/index.php?showtopic=23955
There are people who think Linux-user shouldn´t complain but rent a windows
server...
I am really sad to read some of the answers posted there...

We have asked our users and visitors to wait with the update to 1.3 ´til the
updated Linux binaries are out and a lot did so, also a lot of admins, that
visit our forum (ok, no other choice if running a Linux-server...)

Give Ryan the time he needs, he will do his best as always and we know, he
won´t let us alone as AV an IW do...

Go on Ryan, we are all happy about you and your good work!!!

Hi Ryan

Do you have an ETA or any idea on how long it will be? Days, Weeks? Months?
as a GSP Customers keep asking when the servers will be updated and also as
a league admin its giving us a real pain as some people have moved to 1.3 as
they are running windows servers and people with linux servers are still on
1.2 so like what do we do for the best? tell every one to downgrade to 1.2
and play on a 1.2 server, or tell everyone to update to 1.3 and hope the
clan they are playing have a 1.3 server or what? :S lol

an idea of how long for you to have them ready would be a big help


Thanks

David
