It's really annoying when you join a lobby and you go to play TF2 and 20 minutes later you check back to see that the lobby was closed 3 minutes after you went to play TF2. I think it would really be helpful if there was a sound that played if the lobby leader manually closes the lobby or the lobby closes because the server becomes unreachable. This could help fill other lobbies faster because less people would be sitting in closed lobbies.

Good suggestion. Some sound suggestions:

 

Oh, this is bad! - probably the most appropriate http://cdn.frustra.o...on06.mp3?id=552

 

Mission ends in 10 seconds - not quite perfect http://cdn.frustra.o...10sec.mp3?id=38

 

*sigh* it was long trip... - not quite perfect http://cdn.frustra.o...ce01.mp3?id=451

 

*critical death* - a bit weird but corresponds with the pain of a lobby closing before it starts http://cdn.frustra.o...th01.mp3?id=995

 

From: http://www.tf2sounds.com/ links aren't working for me now, but the name of them is first so you can search for them there.

I like "Oh this is bad!"... I think this would be easy to implement because they already have sounds for the lobby starting and readying up so this shouldn't be too different

<p>I can't find the old suggestion, I thought it was going through. We even pulled up audio clips to use and everything.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Too many times we are tabbed out, browsing the web for ages to tab back in and find it was cancelled 5mins ago and we could have used that time filling another lobby.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>pls</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>thanks!</p>

I found another on the website, its announcer saying "oh no....Gentlemen, this never happened"

I think we should extend the scope a bit more: if you're not going to participate in a certain Lobby:

  • if closed
  • if being kicked
  • if being banned

Nice I saw it implemented and it works.

 

How about audio sounds for server is unreachable or server password has changed.  Maybe a heavy "oh no" sound or something lol

As stated earlier, the same sound will be played when the Lobby closes before launch, such as when the server is unreachable...

  • 17:35:09 TF2Center: Lobby #415647: Server is unreachable; leader has been notified to take immediate action
  • 17:35:17 twitch.tv/b33p_: apparently we should have just heard something

I didn't hear anything. I think he meant we should hear a sound in cases like above, not just when it closes because server is unreachable.

This is just a warning, there is no final thing yet. The closing of the Lobby is a final state, and therefor the sound will be played no earlier than that.
