Let's see--over $40,000,000 in development costs. (That was around a year ago, so probably at least another million on that.) Now, bronze costs $50. So... they'd have to sell approximately one million copies to break even. Except WAIT, that's not true. Because we're ignoring Vivendi...

Setting a firewall to block everything? Wouldn't it be easier to just unplug the cable?

Agree with title. Just not that exciting. Those of you enjoying it, feel free to continue. I'll play something I like. (Natural Selection)

I would expect the contest winners to become official maps. Probably in the contest rules.

stutters = loss of performance. Jimmo, turn on vsync. That's called tearing.

This is why DM isn't a very popular gameplay mode (in general) right now. It's just not that fun. It's also why so many people said "who cares if they give us HL2DM".

I didn't even notice that NS speak had invaded the forum until about halfway down the thead. :)

hl:source won't let you play HL mods.

Bunny hopping isn't just jumping repeatedly. It's jumping AND STRAFING in such a manner as to increase your speed astromomically. (To the point it looks like hacking if you don't know what's going on.) This is sometimes also referred to as "strafe jumping".

I suspect you're more likely looking at some fan-made image.

Having played RF and RFII, the destructible walls were limited and added almost nothing to gameplay. The physics in HL2 added far more to open gameplay.

Never ask this question again. Any time you think, "Has anyone emailed Valve about...?" the answer is, "Yes -- about a million times." The correct question is, "Has anyone posted an answer from Vavle about ....?" If no one has, go ahead and ask them again. :)

They said it won't take another 5 years for hl3. :)

No. If you have a 120 MHz refresh and your computer is managing only 15 frames per second, vsync is not limiting you at all. So, turning off vsync MAY improve your FPS. Filtering is a method of making the textures scale appropriately with distance. Again, higher is better, but it'll cost...

Look for an alley. You may have to climb over a fence to get to it. Or up a fire escape. [vaguely remembers level]

Short version: Antialiasing removes jaggies. Turn it up as high as your graphics card can handle. (Turning it higher will lower your framerate.) Vertical sync makes the monitor refresh sync with the redraw of the scene. Turning it off may give higher framerate but you may notice...
