Alien Swarm Message Board  

i have personally seen this game patch three times since yesterday morning. i am afraid this game wont be getting immediate support for updates for our trainers. even left 4 dead 2 didn't patch this often, and their 'updates' were nothing more than shufcheathappens code around to prevent multiplayer hackers in most cases.

NOTE: if you are a developer of the game and reading this, then please e-mail us if you are patching the game due to our trainer. otherwise, there must be alot of bugs/errors in this game that need fixing OR the developers are bored and are tweaking every last little thing. either way, we cannot update the trainer for a game that is only played by a very few people and update 12 code areas multiple times a day while working on other titles.

i probably won't look at this game again until friday. blame the developers and patching every 8 hours...

best,
Cal

can we @ lest update it 1 time a week i just disable it from updateing may be i can get he trainer not not crash will see

'something' updated but current trainer was downloaded and tested as of 9:39 AM July 22 and is still working.

is it possible to get vac bans if you use the trainer?
or isnt there vac on thius game.

I would have thought a cool-down of the game in general before making a trainer would have been a good idea. Right now it's had multiple patches on initial release just due to there being a few bugs. Like game-breaking bugs. I'd give it a few weeks before the patches stop streaming out as they have been as of late. L4D did have patch updates (almost) this often upon its release. Exploits needed to be patched and so they did.

I agree with star and Cal. The game needs to have a cool off period before he busts his butt trying to fix the trainer. First off, if you're that dedicated to cheating, get a memory editor. Now I do really love trainers that come out the day the games do; it's the main reason I've got a life sub here. Though being a programmer, I also know how annoying changing little things can be. I do hope they lay off the patches for at least a good week so Cal is willing to update the trainer.

Already been patched. it was only a 1.1mb sized patch... either their patching to get around the trainers, or they are patching because it's such a new game... either way, I'd say don't waste your time re-doing the trainer every day.

This is my 2 cents in case you don't get a reply from the developers:

Well, they may be updating it due to various hackers coming up severe trolling programs that reset your level and prestige to 1 in multiplayer games. There are also several hacks that force a crash when people attempt to use something like Hornet Barrage or the Smart Bomb from the hacker having the packs in use, with unlimited uses enabled somehow.
