    Some ideas for a Combine vs. Resistance Mod (Long)

    Yes, I write about 120wpm and have been taking notes of ideas for a week or so. I am excited about mods and really hope to see them succeed. I would be more than happy to help any mods, but I do not model/skin/etc... I just have ideas and can play :) My turn for a question: Did you read all...

    Can the Source Engine do...

    You could just stick a propeller/engine on the ballon that is always pointed up, or in a small cone. This way it can still sway with outside input and wind if you applied such.

    F-in HACKERS!!!

    There are speed hacks for CS:S, so it is not surprising that there are hacks for HL2DM already. Since Valve does not have VAC enabled we will continue to see these problems... not that they will go away, just that without any anti-cheat software a lot more gamers will hack. The best way to deal...

    Noob gun award of the year goes to...

    I do not see your scores as proof of anything. So you did well with the Magnum... and how does that make it a newb gun? I have had much better games than that (31-2, 45-7, 160-56, etc... someone started a thread about high scores, some of my scores are in there) w/o using the Magnum hardly at...

    What AA and AF settings do you use?

    My cousin has a Radeon 9700. His settings are 2x AA and 4x AF @ 1024x768. Most things on high. I am running a 6800GT and am running 4x AA and 8x AF @ 1280x960 with everything on high. I could go higher now that I have tested things... I went with these settings at first because I did not want...

    Noob gun award of the year goes to...

    I think the Magnum is fine. It has a slow rate of fire, is has a very slow reload, you only get 12 rounds of ammo, and it is not the easiest thing to aim (watched my brother play... he is ok, but his aim is not good enough to hit guys more than 50% of the time). The Magnum is lethal in skilled...

    Resistance vs. Combine Mod

    I have been begging for a Resistance vs. Combine mod :) Classes would be great (in my notes for a suggestion thread already) and also objective maps, assault/defend maps, push maps, and most importantly--Conquest/Control Point maps like DoD and BF1942. I think the key for a LONG game life...

    Analysis so far...

    Dario, good points :) One thing that I think is overlooked is that all the NPCs assume you know what is going on. They do not know, necessarily, that you are clueless. Why would you be clueless? Valve cut out a "slideshow" that Eli showed you. It is in the book. Personally I think it would...

    Read! Reason For Hl2dm Lag!

    I have been on some stable servers with 20 players. That is odd about your server because LAN runs well and I have been on some rock solid servers with over a dozen players--so jumpy with only 2 indicates there is a problem somewhere. If a client side LAN on a 1GB/2.85GHz P4 runs fine, then you...

    Analysis so far...

    Nice analysis. I do not agree with everything, but you have thoughtful reasons and it is your opinion, so that is great :) One thing I would like to give you a constrasting opinion on is the story. I think we have been brainwashed, as gamers, to be spoon fed plots. Think about it--Gordon...

    Post your best scores.

    So far I have had scores of 31-2 (Lockdown; SS below), 45-7 (Overwatch), 99-54 (Lockdown; SS below). I had another game with 107 to 40ish but no screenshot. I have had other good games but I forget the exact scores because I was soooo tired staying up until 5am EST time to play! I also had a...

    Official Grav-gun only map?

    I think there is room for both. I think a king of the hill type mode with the Blue Grav Gun would be great. Whoever has the blue gun longest wins type deal. Play for 10 minutes... Make a map with a TON of traps and stuff, so people can try to trap the blue grav gun guy and vice versa. I have...

    BIG exploit in CS:S - Possibly carries over to HL2DM?

    I know on our clan server this does not work. Someone must have enabled this, because I know for our server each person had to be validated to get access to kick. Why does every always assume "bad coding"? ::sigh::

    What is up with the servers!

    The game is not laggy--the fact most games are not on dedicated servers right now. This means you have limited BW (most broadband companies offer very small upstream BW), and are competing for resources on the client system. And distance from the server makes a big difference. Click here for...

    Tips for Finding a Good HL2DM Server

    I have seen a lot of complaints on the forum about HL2DM being laggy. I have played on some excellent servers (ping<70 in game; solid hardware; correct number of player slots for server capabilities) and feel confident stating that HL2DM has excellent net code and is not laggy. A lot of...

    Disappointing HL2 sales figures

    Things to consider: 1. No Steam numbers were counted. 2. Valve had a lot of pre-November 16th HL2 Steam sales that would not be calculated in the week to week sales. Normal pre-orders are counted the first week; but with HL2 people were playing part of the product before release and could...
