Hacker has been arrested.

I agree with Onboard! If this guy is beta testing HL2 then we need some info from him!!! Are you staying in contact with your mod leader?

Or maybe he is sworn to secrecy!

He is a playtester and i think he is sworn to secrecy :O

But he has seen high quality e32k4 vids and say the low res versions dont do it justice

 

[dscowboy]

Heh... if he's play testing I sure hope he's seen a lot more than just high quality vids...

 

[^Ben]

He aint play testing it yet theve got his name on a list and they will call him in probably "later"

 

[OnboardError]

He's lucky but kinda not... Id love to play the game now... but its in a unfinished state... I think it will be worth the wait....

 

[^Ben]

Kind of hard to explain but i think he will be one of the last batch of testers if you get what i mean?

Where there wont be many bugs or polising just teeny bits that need changing. And when he says he is going into test HL2 i know it will be time to go crazy because half lifes coming baby!!!

Hey, I didn't know it was confirmed that the h4x0r was caught. Good. Let's go burn him.

 

[lonestar]

they got the hacker?

i saw the news, where they showed the home from the guy who programmed "sasser". and they assumed, he had his hands in the hl2 source code/beta leak. but maybe he's just one of an organisation.

i think, the one in this thread here, is talking about this simpsons pic hanging at one of the windows at his home. he's from germany.

so, he did it? is that true?

The hacker has been arrested my mod leader visited valve and they told him that the ago phatbot creator was the guy who stole the source and released the beta.

You might already know this but what the hey.

Not many pictures but some stuff on valves plans for mods and how they are going to support them. And now my mod leader is a play tester for the game the lucky git :| and from what he said to me they where mostly just playing the game and looked in high spirits(but we already knew that)

Also check out the new box art that they had just got in the office from vivendi that very day.

You know, you could use comma once in a while, it would help me a lot since English is not my natural language.

nice, pics, btw. thx!

looking back. many people visited valve so far and we also got pictures. valve is pretty hospitable. maybe TOO hospitable... *cough* leak *cough*.

Anyone with half a brain knows that playtesters sign NDA contracts and if they leak information they will be immediately fired, and potentially sued.

i just write him a pm. having the info, i will shut up.

 

[phantomdesign]

If he was a playtester, he would know that info already.
