    Possible (Major) Bug in Reserved Slots

    So - I tried the Reserved Slot system for the first time last night, on our Server with 20/20. I got on immediately, yet something was very, very wrong.

    Everybody playing seemed to be frozen in place! (Yes, frozen.)

    I choose Engineer, walked my ass to "C", planted a Dispenser and got time to build up an entire Turret (rocket launcher and everything), all the while, standing around with a bunch of non-moving players. When I panned over them, their names were there, as were they in the player list when I pressed "tab".

    I was really hoping that they would all of a sudden just start playing, because the ensuing massacre of the other team would have been priceless however all I noticed after this long time was that everybody started dropping off, then reconnecting a minute or two later.

    Regardless, I was still in-game, with a good ping, could move around the maps and do anything I wanted to.

    Now, here's where I think it might be a "reserved slot" issue - a bunch of guys claimed that this was the third time in an hour that this had happened, which begs the question - is it possible that, by using the reserved slot, it's kicking/freezing EVERYBODY, or possibly everybody playing has a reserved slot as well, and it can't figure out who to kick?

    Is there any way to see what happened the other times the freeze occurred?

    Re: Possible (Major) Bug in Reserved Slots

    It was on the TF2 Server last night.

    Dude, I'm sick - I can't tell you where or when, but it would have been between 8pm and 10pm. Whenever I first joined, that's when it happened - if you can find my name suddenly appear in a log file, that's the issue.

    I'd like to hear from anyone else who used a reserved slot last night or anyone else that has experienced the issue.

    If I'm ever lucky to see frozen players again, I'll build my superturrets deep in enemy territory! Maybe they'll blast away at the zombies, instead of sitting there waiting for people to move...

    I don't have a reserved slot, but I saw this happen sometime last week. Someone joined and then all but three or four players from each team timed out. I stayed in the game, but my friend ungst timed out (along with the rest of his team lol).

    Re: Possible (Major) Bug in Reserved Slots

    If it happened last week then it's not a reserved slot issue.
    We'll see if it happens on the new server and the new host
    Thanks!

    Re: Possible (Major) Bug in Reserved Slots

    I didn't have a freeze issue but the other day (Sat maybe) I joined using a reserved slot and everyone dropped off the server but 6 of us within 5 mins of joining. Same as the timing out issue...maybe? Grum was on and he went bye bye.
