    How does Half-Life 2 have you get on top of boxes?

    It was dx2 that had the mantling, with it being based on the unreal 2 engine and all. It works in that by walking against the box and pressing jump i think and it then moves you up on to the box or ledge etc as opposed to jumping before you get to it. Anyway in terms of HL2 I can't imagine...

    Morbid thread of the day, sorry

    Glad to know he's still posting pretty recently. I can't speak for the lad in question but when one of my best mates died from cancer rather than accept gifts he asked for money to go to cancer research instead to help others instead of him. That might be a more fitting response. Maybe...

    Morbid thread of the day, sorry

    A few months back a lad with cancer or a tumour posted on here in a thread about delays because previous delays were stretching the game release beyond the time he thought he had left. I can't remember his name and I know it's pretty off topic but I was just wondering how he was. Anyone know?

    Ditch The Cheats

    I know this is going back a few pages but.... Why is online gaming not real life? It's a multiplayer game, the people you cause shit for are real people just the same as if you were stood next to them. Cheating in a single player game is a bit pathetic but harms noone. Cheating in a...

    Steam is currently experiencing network outages.

    It looked like either a hardware failure or a ddos attack at the time. They should be arriving at work sometime soon so I'm sure more details will surface.

    Iron Sights?

    You know those little bits of metal you get on top of gun barrels so you can line them up and see where it is aiming? They used to be made of iron. Hence the name.

    Some new screenshots

    "maybe there'll be a section where you have to protect alyx from getting shot, that would be quite fun" No it wouldn't. Escort missions in FPS games, Flight sims, mechwarrior and any other sort of game are my own personal hell. I hate them I hate them I hate them. Until someone figures...

    Player models

    Firstly can I just say now that I know it's pre-beta footage we've seen so far, i know the arm length and posture is going to be worked on and I know it's all subject to change but..... Does anyone else think the CT model we have seen so far looks more like a scuba diver than a counter terrorist?

    Sparks have taken over the world!

    OK I havn't read the whole thread so I'm sorry if I'm covering old ground but.. Sparks can't have taken over the world because this town ain't big enough for the both of us.

    Doug Lombardi's Estimated HL2 Release Date

    "That's spitting in our faces. If it comes out the 29 or 30 I will take that as an insult. Plain and simple." You all seem to be forgetting that Half-Life was released exactly a year late, to the day. It's happened before, it may happen again. At some stage on hl and hl2 valve and vivendi...

    Could you kick smoke grenades?

    Yeah but it's an alteration to the gameplay mechanics and CS players have proved notoriously restistant to change in the past, or at least the vocal minority have anyway. The current smoke nades in 1.6 and CZ do create an initial burst of smoke and then continue to poor smoke out from a...

    After watching the CS:S Meca vids, I was bothered by a few things

    Don't forget the movie clips you have seen are from a build which is months old. According to an interview with cliffe on csnation the only weapon models they have finished which are going in the final CS:S are the glock and the usp. They are also considering reworking the arm length and back...

    CS:S Meca vid shadows

    If they made it available for bloodlines to do it on the source engine I can;t see why they would keep it away from mod devs.

    CS:S Meca vid shadows

    By then pink I'm sure they will have upgraded source via steam anyway, unless, as some people have said, it is already capable of multiple shadows. It's only important for football games anyway so you get those nice 4 player shows in a star shape anyway ;-)

    Better weapon ballancing in CSS

    I'd leave the mp5 alone, it's a good mid range gun. The ump and p90 get massively under used in comparison, wether that is price, placing on the menu, accuracy or rate of fir i don't know but I'd leave them alone too. p90 has higher rate of fire than mp5 and the ump has higher accuracy but they...

    Better weapon ballancing in CSS

    "to a point, but Burstfire for me has poor groupings. Also the 45 is considered to be superior, I often see T's picking the 45 off CT's corpses." I never said the glock was better than a 45, I'll happily pick up any free gun but the glock is pure value for money as a T. Just out of asking...

    Hacks?

    Or maybe they are just better than you ;-)

    Better weapon ballancing in CSS

    oh and p.s. the glock is not useless, burst fire at the head does more damage than a deagle to the head I reckon and it's free which means you can use the beautiful new HE nades to soften them up first in the pistol round.

    Better weapon ballancing in CSS

    Every player has their voews on what weapons are good and which are bad, which are worth the money and which arn't. It normally comes down to circumstance and style of play but I do admit that the colt, ak, awp, usp and deagle get used far far more than anything else. That's pretty much...

    Hacks?

    Hacks in CS are now pretty rare in public play, I couldn;t speculate on top level competition. Whats far far far more common than hacks is people accusing good players of hacking. That has harmed the game and community far more than anyone actually hacking ever did. I'm averaging about 10...
