lets say a bomb was planted right on the steam servers

What the hell would Valve do? man would that suck, everything they're software does runs through those machines.





Terrorists Win (this is not spam, I just couldent resist saying that)

But wouldent that cause Steam to be down for like months or if they had a crash.. it seems scary that so much relies on those machines.. and how will they continue to pay for what those servers/bw cost! I mean hl2 will make a murdering but i'm guessing they might impose some sort of monthly fee or something like for mmorpg servers.

 

[WillH]

They will pay for them by making more games.... Nobody will pay a monthly fee to play a regular FPS, it just doesn't work that way.

 

[goldenboi]

Whatever can go wrong, will.

You're asking for it :upstare:

 

[JackinHL2Off-GTA]

That would be so funny. delayed again.

Are we really that desperate? What the hell is wrong with these forums...

Terrorists Win

that ironically made me lmao...

and if the steam servers blew up, they should have some sort of backup servers, maybe

 

[Dr.breen]

"terrorists win"




That also made me laugh,


I read it to myself in the style from CS (Which was intended I know)


anyone got a soundbyte of that?

 

[guise]

get outa there, shes gonna blow

 

[Jadewolf5675]

Consider getting some sunlight

 

[oz_ching]

would'nt they have a backup server somewhere else?

 

[Jesus Lincoln]

Haha, Terrorists win, good one

 

[FISKER_Q]

Insurance would cover. And in the event of bombs they might consider putting up servers at 3rd party datacenters.

bomb was just kind-of a joke / exageration more like fire/poweroutage/tripping over wire type scenario or a bug in the system or somethin

 

[Reaperman]

someone should make a CS:S map of valve's office, terrorists have to bomb the steam servers, or the golden crowbar


god knows we have so many pics of it...

really a valve office map needs to be made.. cs office will not suffice.

Gabe "Er, guys, did any of you backup the system onto paper-tape or anything?......"

 

[Zeus]

*in the event of a monthly fee charged to play hl2 and steam*

Gabe: Dude where's my fanbase?

 

[Yogibbear]

Gabe probably has the entire hl2 engine and steam hidden inside his bed mattress......

Spoiler

Mattress Password = GabeN

[Inanimate]

Do you know that probably both CIA and FBI just read this post?
By posting any words or sentences containing words like "terrorist" "bomb" etc.. they automatically get warned about it and will look it up. These damn PC-game webpages must drive ém crazy haha..

 

[madFive]

ya, i'm sure insurance would cover a situation like that...i'd think they'd only be down for a few weeks while they're replaced... if they have good insurance, baybe they'de even get a rental-car in the meantime to keep them moving...

Yes blow the hell out of the steam servers! STEAM SUCKS ASS!

 

[silverstealth89]

terrorists: lest put a bomb here in this machines

Valve:can we get a deal?

terrorists:what you had to offer?

Valve:errr.....we had a videogame and we can give it to you free

terrorists: ok I will see

1 hour later

terrorists:wow this game rocks!,pick up the bomb lets place it in another place

 

[kaf11]

its a funny concept, especially if you remember that picture of the steam server room that those kids took who visited valve.

 

[Reaperman]

any skilled mappers here? that can make the map?

Couldn't agree more...

 

[SidewinderX]
