The steam group really needs an image btw. Question marks look horrible, how about the O from the boards logo there? The one with the eyes like?

Anyway just a quick question:

A lad I know was talking about getting a server for left 4 dead. But that the server for whatever reason, will only let you have friends join it. You can't make it public like... Or you have to pay more.

But is/if there is a way to add the server to the steam group, would this mean everyone in the steam group could be considered friends and be able to join it?

Anyone know?

Well - Left 4 Dead dedicated servers can be linked to a Steam Community Group. If you belong to that group, it will show up in-game under the "Steam Group Servers" list and the like.

Have a read of this:

Quote:

There is a new cvar sv_steamgroup, which takes the Steam group number (visible on the group's administrative page). The server will still be part of matchmaking, but users that are in that group will be able to browse directly to it from the main menu. Also, if this value is set, there will be a button near the message of the day taht allows users to go directly to that group's page. This allows users to join that group if they like, and then be able to browse back to it in the future.
