Eric Smith has released the following regarding Left 4 Dead dedicated servers:
If you are interested with more upcoming info, you you should consider joining HLDS (Half Life Dedicated Server) mailing list.
[br]We'll be releasing the Left 4 Dead dedicated server files prior to the Left 4 Dead demo being released. More details will be sent to the mailing lists when we have them.
There are two things to keep in mind regarding running a Left 4 Dead server:
</br>[br]1) The CPU load for the Left 4 Dead server will be higher than you're used to for games like TF2. Left 4 Dead has a bunch of A.I. for the zombies, etc., that games like TF2 don't have.</br>[br]
2) Left 4 Dead uses a new matchmaking system we're developing. We'll be working with the server admin community to make sure the new system operates as smoothly as possible. More details on this later.
