So hey all, haven't been here in many months (i think i might have visited once this year...). Thought I'd just have a quick whinge at the fact HL2 STILL ISNT OUT, I MEAN OMG. So this time last year I was SOOOOO psyched about HL2, I would never have expected it to take another ENTIRE YEAR...

I haven't actually logged into these boards in 9 months, i figured the preload was starting today and so there'd be lots of excitement and that we'd have HL2 within the week.... or something...

Sticky. Bump. Great post! More info needed! Plz continue - we are all listening.

Ya i don't usually like openly mocking other forum users....... But geez you are a complete retard. Zoolander: 'The files are IN the computer!'

Not at all. If any MP component works it is simple to create a small program to simulate a feature for you - for instance Warcraft 3 had many 'packet forwarding' applications released for it since it was in Beta all that time ago. I'm sure people would develop a similar thing for HL2 if they...

Well... Someone (me) did suggest a thread just for spoilers, so it was obvious where and where not to go. It would help organize the forums and people who didn't want things spoiled could choose not to go there instead of just 'tripping over' bits of information and having their game experience...

No. That was the compiled Source that you could do that with, also that was with some custom resources and maps hence why it was 'shit'. This 'beta' (although it is actually an ALPHA) features more resources, i.e all that the thieves stole that they have only just released (seperate to the...

G0rgon... you're kind of missing the point m8. The game is only coming out for Windows, we're talking about how the development files are/were hosted at Valve.... I'm going easy on you though because i realise that English is not your first language :)

Hmm. I work for the Ministry myself, and although what you say is not strictly true - it's the basic gist. To be honest here though i think what we're all saying is that someone has very likely just disregarded common sense and left a security hole.

"Y'see, now i suggested to Valve that they don't use computers and design the Source engine out of clay, but did they listen? Nooooo!"

Hmm I think that 'F-CK'ing them may just encourage them. They'll think they've done something right.

Yah. I kinda like the way you put that Dr-X, to the point :D

Nice post... btw, i have never seen so many words in one place. My mind boggles.

Linux can get DOS attacks and has security flaws just as Windows does, it is merely attacked less because less people use it. "someone tried to steal files from your computer first off it would not let them due to the very powerful system, secondly it would ask for the users Password."...

Ya its kind of a confusing request. Doesn't Psyco have an H in it btw? (Psycho)
