I want CTF with all the vehicles in there.
Helicopter, drop ship, ect.
They need to put a vote ban in there, because people are using the speed hack in CS:S. I was playing last night, and this dude was running thru the map, capping anyone who was standing still. People were...
You have to kill the gunships first, then the hole in the wall appears.
There is a crate with unlimited rocket ammo on the top platform. Shoot at the gunships, then run for cover behind the dumpster when they shoot back. Eventually, you'll get them down and the hole appears.
The free headset that came with the UT2K4 special edition is the best.
Made by Logitech, they are behind the ear. I play HL2 for 3 hours at a time, and don't even notice they are there. I can even play with glasses on, and there is no discomfort. Plus they actually sound good playing music...
Tribes2 mod.
It's my favorite game. Didn't buy T:V.
The game concept is great with the jet pack, capping the flag, and vehicles. Just that many couldn't get the game to work on their computers when it first came out. And then it was plagued with UE crashes.
Cool, I have an FX53 with a 6800 Ultra OC, 100fps average, and it still stutters. I'll be glad to have smooth gameplay, because I'm only half way thru it.
To me, the sheer size of the blockbuster games is making them tuff to pirate. The HL2 release is 85 x 50 megs. 85 files, if any of them are messed up, then you need pars. If the pars don't work, then you're done because they don't repost stuff in the groups for a week. They expect...
I'd also like to say I bought the Silver package and I'm happy.
Still, I scanned some newsgroups to see what was going on.
The Eporium version was nuked, but then they came out with a patch that would supposedly fix it. Well, gee, that's just great. How can people try the crack when...
^^^^
Me too, up at 3am, played for an hour, now I'm at werk from 08:00 - 05:00pm. At least when I get home, I can play for a few hours.
On the kid, I dunno, his body clock will probably be awake. You won't enjoy the game thinking about what he's doing. Hire a baby sitter, ahhhh.
Don't feel bad. I walked around for a while, then restarted the game, then heard Barney say, "Don't go to any checkpoints." and then figured there had to be another way. And yeah, I waited in line at the dumb machine for 5 minutes.
I even thought I was supposed to kill the first guard...
I'm taking Friday off because I have a couple days to use up before the end of the year. No, I won't play it straight thru, because then you have nothing left to do if you beat the game in a couple days. An hour a day spreads things out.
If you notice, the kiddies who beat the game after...
I forgot, but does the regular HL2 box come with CS:S? If so, people could load up steam and play that. Or run the stress test to see what kind of frame rates they get.
I know CS:S comes with the collecter box.
Edit: Yes, HL2 comes with CS:S in the regular box. Now I'm just wondering...
I'm waking up at 3am EST to see if it unlocks. I'll probably stay up after that and play. I have work at 08:00am that same morning.
Just means I'll go to bed early. I've been up all night when my beeper goes off, no big deal.
What's the rush?
They midas well just release it on Sept 28th, and by the time it hits stores, will be Sept 30th, and then Gabe can say they released on time.
Please Let the [H] do a hardware guide
The [H] did a hardware guide for D3 found here.

It is one of the best articles I've read in a long time.
Look at all the systems they benchmarked.
Let the [H] come to Valve studios and benchmark the game 1...
I'm not counting on an April release date either. It will be delayed, and delayed again. If anything, they'll show a beta at E3, with a demo a few months later.
I mean, Intel was supposed to have Prescott out in Q4 of 2003. Did it happen? No. Supposed to happen early February...
Even if this is true, I don't think they have computers powerful enough to run it.
I've never heard of Russians playing online games. Never hear about them in competitions.
Heck, I think they're lucky if they have a P2-450, let alone a P4 3.2 with a GF4.
