Additional Information

I would like to be able play(DM, TDM, CTI, etc.) As matter of fact, the only game types i can play are co-op and wasteland because the DEV servers only seem to run those two game types. I don't mind playing co-op but wasteland i can't stand. I'm sure there's an easy fix for this but im computer savvy enough to figure it out on my own. Help please?

Sorry for all the typos i was typing in a hurry

You have to change your version of the game if you want to play on these servers. Unfortunately is not posibble to play on server with another version of the game. This is technology limitation.

Thanks i figured as much. How do i revert back to that version? Would you even recommend doing so? And why don't all the servers run on the same version? I probably should have asked all these question with the original posting my apologies :P

Right click on the game in your steam library > properties > betas > select version. All these questions should be answered here:
