I don't know the adress :]

 

[Zetahl2world]

I didn't make the original thread so have no way of checking. I'm sure others here can though

 

[Axyon]

It can't be gold when they haven't even sent an RC yet.

 

[EVIL]

Yeah! .. what Abom said!

 

[scarecrow1]

Whats the website? i would like to make sure aswell!!
"Damn them, Damn them all to hell!!
:that is unless it's true???
Is it?

 

[Axyon]

No linking or circumventing the filter to any censored sites. Post deleted.

If it was gold, I'm sure Gabe would have said something by now. All he'd have to do is send out a press release saying, "Half-Life is gold" and the internet would basically explode.

 

[EVIL]

Abom, I never knew you where such a nice guy

Maybe he did and ATi reacted the fasted :]

Ah... it feels good to be appreciated

 

[Zetahl2world]

"Censored site"? If the site is censored why mention it the first place? I am sick of posts refferring to pictures and links i can't see and are not posted with the thread! What is it with this website and links? Does every link have to be an officially approved website by Gabe himself? half the HL2 websites on the net post bullcrap threads anyway and untrue information. So tell me what is it? What is the big deal?

They're censored because they openly discuss the Half-Life 2 leak.

 

[Zetahl2world]

just because a site is blocked from this play school doesnt mean its censored from the web.

anyway its going to be fake but i thought id let you know

 

[scarecrow1]

Ok, how relevant is the HL2 leak at the moment? From what i understand comparing the leak to Hl2 as it is right now is like two completely different games. Take doom3. The same happened but the developers were gutsy enough to say that it would do nothing to the final game saying that the final game would be completely different. Dont you think that valve would have changed every aspect of what was in the leak? For eg. What exactly are the combine? some may claim to know due to the leak, but im sure Valve would be aware of this and so change the nature of their existence or the truth behind them to surprise everyone once the game comes out, even shocking the leak "viewers".

 

[PvtRyan]

All content is unchanged since the leak.

just because a site is blocked from this play school doesnt mean its censored from the web.

So isn't kiddy porn, so because it's still available means it should be uncensored from this site? It's bad, and it's perfectly understandable that hl2.net wants nothing to do with leak sites, among others yours.
And if they uncensor yours, what's next then? That certain russian site which basically contains everything from the leak? I mean, they're just another site with the leak, and censoring here doesn't mean it's censored on the web right so censoring is pointless right?
Just accept it that your site is doing something illegal and it's perfectly fine that hl2.net wants nothing to do with it.

valve is not going to rewrite a game they have spent 6 years making. 60% + of the game is in the leak and thats not worth remaking. heck most of the e32004 vid is already there.

60%... Don't make me laugh. What was in was a very small amount compared to that huge game, as far as I know.

 

[scarecrow1]

Content? you mean the story is unchanged? by the way what of the story would those who have downloaded the leak recieved? 0.005 percent?
My question is how relevant is or rather how much does the leak hurt HL2 that is being played by the devs at Valve HQ right now?

It's illegal. End of story.

as far as you know seems to be jack shit. Actually along with the map pack its more 70 %

then you have all the sounds folders, models etc

and thats pretty much all valve had back in sept.

 

[Xrenity]

Actually along with the map pack its more 70 %

Hmm, I didn't know of any map pack. My fault. But anyways, can anyone comfirm this e-mail?

 

[Cybernoid]

Some guy on some forum says that ATI's newsletter says that HL2 is gold but he doesn't know where this newsletter is nor can he quote it. So it must be true.

 

[SidewinderX]

He's apperently the only one on ATI's newsletter list.

Hehehhee...But yeah, this seems pretty clear then

 

[CTTcrew_MrBlue]

so basicly its a load of codswallop.

end.

 

[Cybernoid]

I received an e-mail titled "enlarge your penis NOW!" and it said that HL2 will go gold tomorrow at noon. It must be true.

 

[epmode]

not gold

(stupid 10 character limit)

 

[Maxi]

Wow, talk about shifty information.

 

[Zetahl2world]
