I could see that being a possibility.
I honestly think that the G-Man works for some kind of secret organization that has been hidden in the shadows from both the combine and the humans (as well as the aliens) that work as a sort of Illuminati or organization like that, that have always had...
The story had a VERY interesting plot, and I followed it through to the end and enjoyed it. But there were so many parts that seemed so unfocused and just undeveloped that they leave big chunks out. Obviously they haven't disclosed the nature of the G-Man as he will probably remain a very...
I'll have to reiterate every point made in the comic. Except for the "What's so grreat about this game anyway?" If guided rockets that halo around a strider isn't good enough for you... then you just have no taste.
yeah, but they're also uber expensive...
Um... I would say the solution to this situation is to ditch the laptop, and buy a new PC altogether. That seriously is probably going to be the only way for you to play that game dude... Unless you can live with the bad textures and low screen res...
i'm gonna try updating my drivers, windows updates, etc. but i REALLY think that all of my problems are stemming from the patch... i get frozen up and have to press the restart button on my tower after three quick saves...
eh, well, the jeep is in the garage, i'm talking about the END of the firefight being a pain in the arse. The game crashes once the helicopter crashes.
I turned the sound off and things worked well, but then when the heli went down, the entire screen went black. :(
Heh, I'm having a problem at the lighthouse as well, though it's not the same problem. Okay, basically I go through the big firefight, that is FUN. But when I blow the chopper out of the sky, the thing crashes, and just as it crashes, the game does the sound loop crash every time. :(
I'm getting a LOT of problems with this. In fact, sometimes it happens randomly, and other times (mostly) it happens because I save the game after a certain amount of times. (It crashed when it AUTO-Saved!) So when it crashes like this, I have to restart the whole system. This is becoming a...
I don't have a lot of experience with Steam (and what experience I do have, I'm not exactly becoming a big FAN of the service either...) But as I've posted in a previous forum, I have found a sollution that pretty much works so far.
Basically what I do (remember, I have dialup as well, so I...
actually, for the past few hours, i've been playing HL2 offline. Basically I just figured out how to pull the plug when HL2 boots up, with steam still on, and then just close all the other stuff while playing HL2... works for me so far. Though it's kind of a biyotch trying to maneuver the screen...
What?! >_x Will it be possible to do so again in the future???
EDIT: I thought about this for a minute, and I think I understand why Valve would make it so no one can play offline. It makes sense, after all, this would be a surefire way to keep piraters from getting to play a pirated version...
I only have this problem whenever I try to update my video settings. I change my graphics settings, hit apply or ok, and the game just starts looping, and i'm forced to force-close the game. Is this at all related to the sollutions presented before?
