It will only be harder to DDOS a server, it is still possible to ddos a server.
And the days to come will tell how hard it now is to bring down a server.

Current fix appears to be retarded. After a single, short attack it’s impossible to connect/reconnect to the gameserver.
But at least it doesn’t freeze.
tested on other server, you can connect but takes 1-2min after attack is over… so dont time out :D
Actually you were able to connect again because I stopped the attack. During the attack connecting is impossible.
Wow. That is not even an improvement.
Going to keep the servers hidden.
How did this server bug even happend in the first place why did they valve change it ?
as long as the servers do not freeze while people are actually playing is fine with me. I’m happy that valve are looking at this seriously and have at least made some progress towards resolving it.

its not a bug… its exploit… spamming certain info to server makes it hang when its done in excessive ammounts
they havnt changed how servers work or how ppl connect to them… they have applied the firewall fix that arie and ronnie made
