the point is .. those people who play counter strike .. are hl fans .. and they are surly waiting for hl2, and most of them probably got bored waiting for cz so many years, and now that hl2 is close, cz seems like nothing. that's just my opinon anyway. maybe i am wrong
well, they said they will show other videos that ere not shown at E3.
I hope they show us some videos to prove that the leak/theft is not even 20% of the game. like, i dunno, show several videos of the same level played several times, each time different things happen based on what you do!
it's just a guess, people are guessing they are going to release what's left of the E3 movies, and probably some more movies (as promised before). but it's just pure speculation.
They are releasing stuff on steam to test the network. yes it IS related to CZ, but they are releasing FREEEEE stuff to TEST the network. CZ is not free. Binkm movies are.

This is probably very recent. but .. but .. Gabe insisted before on sept 30th and well, you know what happened.
I dunno, but let's have some hope anyway, you might live longer if you have it!!
that's a very optimistic picture if you ask me :P
this is the real picture:
new guy: hey guys when is hl2 coming out?
jerk#1: omg u n00b lol what an idiot lmao go die u ***** retard
jerk#2: lol
jerk#3: thanks
jerk#4: when you grow some balls
jerk#5: yo moma is fat
and so on ....
the problem is not with such sarcastic coments. the problem is with people who actually take them seriously.
I can almost see a n00b emailing gabe asking him why the final version won't have eyes!!!!
I think we do get them from multiple servers .. though I am not exactly sure what you mean.
about the empty servers .. for most of them, if you look closly it says the server isn't reporting anything and so the status page/script is just estimating .. and for somereason it always estimates it...
I guess then if you read it in a book or something it seems complicated. if you take it in a unviersity .. well there everything is complicated so pointers aren't such a big deal :P j/k
they are probably easier if you study them in some sort of a school rather than read a book or an online...
