Game was working at 2 am last nite just fine, then i get on for some HL and wham, can't play :(

my dumps: http://puu.sh/qevI8/be6a2f6e07.rar

Thank you for organizing and informing

currently testing some methods to see if I can get tf2 to work

since today theres a random chance of my TF2 crashing when MM finds me a match
also happens when clicking disconnect after a MM match ends

fuck mine is now broken too, and my tf folder is gone.

Just a little question that might not be as relevant as it should:

Does this bug only come in Competitive Matchmaking, or does it occur in Casual Matchmaking as well?

I've been playing Casual Matchmaking since the update came out, but seeing this post get linked on the /r/tf2 subreddit made me a little concerned.

(I haven't played Competitive Matchmaking ever.)

Call me a crazy conspiracy theorist but idc

I'm pretty sure they let the quality go on purpose on this update to make people give up on TF2 and go spend money on dota/csgo

Like how else can you explain this extreme level of incompetency. They're not incompetent, they don't want/care for anyone playing tf2 and are probably actively discouraging it by bombing updates on purpose

I just hope TF3 or whatever they call the sequel actually becomes a thing, eventually, because this game was beautiful

I will link Jill this thread as soon as he's online.

No one's yet reported this issue happening to them in Casual yet, and considering I imagine casual is the more played form of matchmaking I would assume it doesn't exist there.

Thanks!

So what you're saying is THE ONLY WAY TO WIN IS NOT TO PLAY?! :O

I had actually finished playing a casual match and left my computer for a few minutes when it happened. It was not from competitive. Also, I just switched my game from dx9 back to dx8- I wonder if that is part of the problem.

Same problem here, ranked up yesterday, i believe it was rank 7.
Closed the game right after that, and when i tried to open it today i got that error.
Either the game crashed right after launching, crashed while loading the main menu or froze while loading the main menu.

Good job volvo. ._.

Same here.
We created a party to play casual and after we were done playing (not sure if I ranked up or not) I went afk for couple of minutes and then left the party and quit the game. After 15min or so decided to start playing tf2 again and then crashing started.
Now tf2 crashes every time just before loading mainmenu. Haven't tested much but seems to work fine on my alt account and in offline mode.
I've played a lot of competitive MM but didn't play it yesterday when tf2 started crashing only casual.

is there even any ''community valve servers'' now, or they are all down?
this sucks bro

The PSA I made on reddit got quite some upvotes, so hopefully Valve has already noticed it

I'm not smart so I can't understand, might this have any connection to my pc crashing with matchmaking games?

Can we storm volvo's HQ yet i'm going through withdraw

Thank god I decided to boycott competitive matchmaking in regard to horrible 300 ping a week ago. Looks like it was a blessing in disguise.

I was just waiting for the ability to pick maps and/or gamemode before playing MM again. Having to guess what you're going to play along with servers gets really frustrating and annoying that it was better (for my sanity) to just stay away until things smoothed out.

Hi, last night I played some comp mm and ranked up to rank 6, closed my game right after ranking up and forgot about it completely, later this morning i launched my game and started getting the "CutLinkedList overflow" error, i was about to do the item_schema file method but when i went to tf/scripts, the file was already gone, did i mess something up?
I just traded for hats i didn't even get to use them :(

Edit: forgot to add my dump

Got all the dumps updated, and thanks #44 for the much needed r/tf2 visibility. That combined with truktruk nabbing jill whenever he decides to get in will hopefully be enough, but feel free to keep emailing Valve and stuff too.

Weird.. it's working for me again, but i didn't change anything at all, and TF2 didn't update either.
Anyone else with the same results?

I can't check my alt at the moment but we've had 1 or 2 reports of that happening, it just magically clears up randomly. It's one of the other reasons it seems to be server side on Valve's end. But plenty of people from when it was originally discovered still had broken games while others had theirs fixed in a day or two. Hopefully others that can check their accounts will chime in.

Why am i play on Virginia server all the time when i play comp ?

Because valve fucked up. I already had everything between washington servers and dubai servers, on the dubai server, the lowest ping was 100, the highest 350.
They should just add a setting for "maximum acceptable matchmaking ping" like they have in CS:GO.

But you should use another thread to talk about this problem probably.

@topic: Still working for me, it's really like volvo magic. :S

OMG IT WORKS FOR ME NOW TOO :D

I am having this problem too since yesterday, I hope mine start working again too :(

Hmm.. for me it took around 4 days, idk if its like a time thing or a pattern with when your account will work again?

-

I removed and deleted files, verified cache, reinstalled, installed on a different machine and kept getting the same error no matter what I troubleshooted yesterday. Today I launched tf2 and it worked fine. It's most definitely something on valve's end with their server registry of tf2.

Its working now for me too :D so I had this problem for 2 days or less. Thank you Valve if you are there up listening. O:)
