I kinda want a modern computer that comes with a book similar to how Commodore included one that had simple instructions on how to do pretty much everything, like making simple music all the way to programming it

    Why would you need a code of conduct on a game about murdering demons in the most graphically brutal ways anyways? Something like "by accepting these rules, you agree to be friendly to demons, pet them in the back and have a picnic together."?

    A lot of people prefer community servers and want Valve to outright remove matchmaking for reasons like

    No team switch on matchmaking

    shorter game times outside of control from players

    end game map vote instead of near when the game ends (which also breaks randomly)

    matchmaking putting you in a match right before it ends

    MvM matchmaking being outright broken

    The infamous Matchmaking Error: A connection to the Steam VAC Servers could not be made.

    I personally think these problems can be fixed by Valve without the need to remove matchmaking alltogether, but i agree that the way Quickplay used to work was better than what we have currently.

    The patches are mostly community fixes, which is not the way to treat a game that makes tens of millions per year. The game's matchmaking is broken and needs either a major rework or outright removal. Some recent change broke MvM to the point it takes hours to queue up.

    From a practical point, useful in starting a base on projects, but sucks on further progress. I've used it in coding and 3d motion, and in both my experience it was like that.

    From an environmental point, it's an overengineered mess. Local models are satisfactory for most use cases, and we don't really need huge computing clusters dedicated for AI.
