I see that a lot of people are mad over the recent Half-Life 2 delay. Yes it is a little disapointing, but me paying very close attention on the Half-Life 2 development I have noticed things that I feel needs to be worked on. I was able to find bugs in every Half-Life 2 movie released. One major one I toticed in the Bugsbait demo is near then end of the demo when the large Ant Lion came out and knocked parts of the wall down I noticed a large fragment of the wall sticking half way through the ground and just wiggling back and fourth. Though this is not a significant issue I feel if Valve wants to achieve profection they need to work out these issues. Personally I think Steam should also be worked on more. As of right now it's unstable in both bandwith and stability. I am behind Valve 100% in there decisions. I have great respect toward valve that I don't have with any other game company. I think the delay of Half-Life 2 is a wise choice on Valves behalf. I hope that you guys understand my thoughts and agree with me. I pay very close attention on the gaming industry. Lately the console gaming world has gained more Users in the last past few years that lowered the PC world. With the PC's strong lineup I think the PC world will regain it's users. I consider myself a knowlegeable PC gamer. I never take the word of Joe Shmo on a user forum. I do the research myself. Hopefully I will eventually be able to get a PC worthy of running Half-Life 2. I trust Valve to make the right decisions. Valve has released Half-Life 1 patches all the time for over 4 years. Half-Life 1 is from what I can tell buglist. They add all kinds of extra content to the patched like Mods and game enhancements. I even believe that Valve will some how work with Nvidia to get the Nvidia branch of cards to work well with Half-Life 2. I am glad to be a part of these forums and be able to share my thoughts On Half-Life 2 and Valve as a whole dispite the people that flame others if they don't agree with them. If only I could explain my memories of Half-Life 1 to you, you would understand why I say these words and I don't intend to yell at Valve for something like a delay. Valve is a trustworthy game company. I'm not saying Valve never makes mistakes, I just feel that Valve cares more about the general public then most companies. Look at Spitcodfry's trip to Valve. It was amazing Valve took the time to do something nice to one person. I can imagine the stress the people are having at Valve this very minute. They have so many projects their trying to get up and running and they are a smaller company. Though Steam may not run perfect right now Valve is trying their best to fix it. They even recommended people to email their problems to them. I think we should take the time to thank Valve for their outtstanding work
