The site admin just needs to implement new marketing strategies. Obviously the reason why they changed from HL2.net to ValveTime was because HL2 ceased to be relevant. Maybe a facebook page to attract ppl from Facebook about Valve's services and digital products. Ditto with Pinterest and...

I tried setting the cvars under Half-Life 2 properties under Steam and that didn't work and I tried assigning a key binding and that didn't work. When I type exec autoexec in the console, it says autoexec doesn't exist so I'm guessing what Zaxxer said about the steampipe update is true. The...

That's what valve.rc is supposed to be there for. I didn't try that before posting here but that didn't work either. Thought I'd try anyways since I'm desperate. I've already tried that but maybe it was the wrong path? "C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\common\Half-Life 2\config" and...

Social networking killed forum communities IMHO.

I can't get autoexec.cfg to work AT ALL. I tried everything. #1 I checked to make sure the syntax for the cvars I wanted to use was correct: cl_detaildist "10000" cl_detailfade "50" lod_TransitionDist "10000" r_lod "-4" #2 I checked to make sure the path was correct...

This forum isn't the go-to place for all things on the internet like it used to be. Read on another thread facebook and twitter killed most of the vibe here. Sad to hear. I'll still check from time to time for gaming updates though.

Ok, here are my actual results. Did another test.

Finally got a decent internet connection after 4 YEARS! Feels like I just got back from being isolated on a desert island out in the middle of the pacific. Well, to those who may semi-remember me if not at all it's good to be back. Dial-up sucks. EDIT>>> This was supposed to go into the Lounge...

EA makes games? I thought they exist just to rape the talented folks who actually DO make games.

I agree. We're not ready for that kind of connectivity yet. A neat idea, but way ahead of it's time. There are still too many places even in the U.S. that don't have access to hi-speed internets. Like cloud computing, this won't work until everyone can access anywhere, anytime. (Satellite ISPs...

Final Fantasy VI. (or FF III in the US) Everything about that game was epic and no other FF has EVER come close to capturing my imagination like VI except for maybe VII, which is still a distant second. Music, story, characters, EVERYTHING was awesome except for the graphics, and those were too...

So then it's not just conservatives who are retarded if one can deduce that extremists in general are retarded. Doesn't really matter if your views are left or right and I agree. SENSIBLE people tend to have higher IQs.

Speaking of Borderlands, does anyone have any tips for beating Crawermax in the General Knoxx expansion? That bastard wastes my lv.68 Roland with just a few hits every time. He's too fast to hit that one weak point from behind so I'll probably have to play co-op to beat him. I wonder if...

I wouldn't be surprised If all the hype and hysteria leading up until December of this year starts causing mass rioting on a scale even worse than Y2K because people in large numbers are idiots. "OMG! OMG! the world's gonna end!" Ha ha. Sheeple.
