Let me do a crappy-but-still-readable translation:
Can you confirm the 30 september for the launch of hl2
Yes. There is no change in the release date. The date is worldwide. As well in france as england.
How will the release happen?
There will be 2 way to buy hl2: classic way (in a shop)
or via steam.
You'll be able to download updates and acquire new mods (you could acquire the mod freely or you'll must pay, depending on the mod) with steam.
Why don't you give more info about hl2?
We want the players to discover the game, the weapon, the story,... You will have more info once the game is released.
mods such as cs, dod, tfc are more than supported by valve. How will it happens for cs2 and dod2 (who will use the hl2 engine) for instance?
Valve want to intesify it's support for the mods. For cs, tfc and dod, members of the team are currently working on it. Moreover we'll continue the Mod expo to support the other mods. We want to help people who want to create a mod by providing tools and services they could not have (somewhere else).
No date yet for cs2, dod2 etc...
[note: Doug Lombardi didn't want to say a word about the how far they are realised)
Will hl2 be developed on other platform(than pc)?
Yes it will be available on xbox. The game will be available on wbox but not before 2004. The partnership with with microsoft is not exclusive and we will also see for sony and nintendo.
During the alcataz presentation will there be a playable version of hl2?
You'll have to be there to know...
Thanks to answer our question
Sorry for my bad english but they are really interesting informations (release date and cs2, dod2,tf2). so i think it worth the crappy translation
