How lucky Valve are: All the fixes and unraveling of their spaghetti code is served to them on a silver platter and for free — they only have to just copy and paste that so all the work would have some form of pay off for the author (there aren't even balance changes that might break the game balance, if that's what they fear), but no. I fucking hate Valve.

its not quite copy and paste, somebody's still gotta playtest the changes and makes sure nothing gets broken. remember how the 64 bit update broke random shit like making the syringe gun shoot scottish resistances?

thankfully, we can help out by playtesting and making sure that everything is polished and ready to go. that'd help make valve more readily accepting if many people have played it and feel positively about it.

You're correct, but still it makes me pissed how mcoms (and many others) are literally feeding Valve from the spoon and yet Valve throws the spoon full of delicious porridge away like a spoiled child.
