You can't connect from the steam browser. You gotta be in game to connect.

Even though custom maps work, zombies seem to be "idle" for most of the time. Someone said that it's because it doesn't have any of those advanced AI nodes (like jump hints and stuff), so even if zombies spawn on top of buildings, they don't jump down. I guess that's just a matter of modifying the nav file, once better support comes out for that?

They have had no issues navigating the maps I've played. They jump up and climb over everything.

The problem is there are no normal zombies standing around, it's just hordes and bosses.

The custom maps I've seen are going to need more aggressive zombies.

They can jump/climb up and down everything I've seen automatically

Although I'm sure the maps in L4D have a ton more nodes than the ones that are automatically generated for the bots in CSS
