I dont understand all the fuss about the CS:S beta. should it not be something completely unrelated to hl2? they say the beta will help find bugs in the engine, shouldnt bugs of that kind be ironed out a long time ago.
I increasingly have the feeling that CS:S HL:S etc are delaying the game even urther. earlier I was told that CS:S is being made by a different team. in that case why is so much of the launch of half life 2 resting upon it?
and I'm slowly beginning to turn into a really disgruntled fan.
the fact remains a lot of the things people from valve have been telling us have been a bunch of lies. to know that they still do not have a RC is shocking.
maybe they should have just shut up like Id. the fact remains that every single date we have been given till now has turned out to be long. the preload was delayed, so has everything else to do with hl2.
can we believe that valve could have brought out the game in holidays last year if the leak hadnt happened? I think not. they have already admitted that it oculd not have sep 30 , 2003. people say they did a lot of it to give publicity to ATI. and valve's promotion of ATI and Nvidia bashing was uncalled for, especially when they based their judgements on the performance of a game that was more than an year from release.
now how many of us think there is any hope of the game coming in october. we've already hadto give up on september.
will it even come out this year. I think I'll stop waiting now, and enjoy the many other awesome games that have come, on time like sims 2, rome total war, doom iii etc. if and when hl2 comes out I hope itll be a pleasant surprise.
