Hi there I, like I'm sure many of you have dled the new patch/update that valve just released, I got it at like 7:40 tonight. I got on the usual server, the ff one and now I get booted every 30 secs or something like that. I was just playing today too w/o any troubles, I stopped at like 6 to go eat and now I can't play. Maybe I was banned for something, although I doubt it, but its just plain wierd. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated :dunno:

I get this msg as I get booted

Host_Error: CL_ReadPreserveEnt: u.m_nNewEntity == MAX_EDICTS
and also


Host_Error: CL_CopyExistingEntity: missing client entity 220.
I have no clue what it means, due to my ineptness dealing with servers and such.

a bunch of people were saying that on the valve forums which im reading while it downloads the update, i stopped playing almost entirely the past 2 weeks because all my time was spent hoping the illini would win. now that dream has been shattered i have a tremendous desire to kill lots of people (cs: the legal way to shoot people in the head)

but the update says its gonna take 151 more minutes and its been going for 10 already. reading that slew of "realism" updates, im wondering is that april fools joke? shields? awp half price? return of the bunny hop? that cant be real

Ok no, the update did not "Make everyone disconnect just because." What did the ACTUAL update SUPPOSE to do? God.

Well heres what the little section off of steam says the update says:

* Enabled support for SourceTV
* Fixed a rare bug that caused some bullet impacts to be counted twice
* Improved map overview support
* The message of the day file is now required to be in the main game directory
* Fixed an issue with player names being out of sync with the server
* Fixed "purple checkerboard" problem for Message of the Day scrollbars
* Fixed some localization issues related to player chat
* Death notices are no longer displayed while blind
* Death notices retain the correct team color even if the player quickly changes teams
* Bots immediately change their names to match the bot_prefix when it changes
* Bots join dedicated servers immediately if the bot_quota is nonzero
* Fixed bug where bots would repeatedly fail to join with an invalid Steam ID
* Added mp_logdetail at the request of server administrators


Source Engine

* Player sprays now persist through round restarts. The number of rounds a spray survives is determined by r_spray_lifetime
* Fixed a bug causing the first message from a plug-in message to be colored incorrectly
* Consistency checking is now skipped during demo playback
* Added sv_visiblemaxplayers
* Fixed timing precision error causing slower framerates on servers running continuously for more than a few days

Not that I could tell what the hell it all means is another story :dunno:
