I just had to ask this, looking at how everyone's been reacting lately.
 
I voted for "Hm, I wonder when HL2 is going to be coming out."

Although in a way I don't want it to come out because my comp. sucks and I'm not going to get the full experience.
 
I come here for 1 hour a day and I always check for HL2 new news or other news. I voted for the sec option.

Jeupp, that's me alright =)
 
Yah, same for me. If this forum wasn't my homepage I don't think I would even check.

This one is the 83rd.
 
I voted "stoked when it comes out."

There just isn't any point at getting angry/upset over something which I can't control. Plus I'm patient...I've waited 5 years thus far, a few months won't kill me.
 
Vote: I wonder once a day.

It's not that I've forgot about it completely , I just don't care as freaking much as I did the days before September 30 , the date that will be forever in our hearts.
 
It's not a major factor. I'm gonna be STOKED when it's announced, but I'm patient.

It comes when it comes, but I admit, the sooner the better.

This is how I am now but around the end of Sebtember I where a bit towards the first option although not as imbecile/weird/brainless/puperty-ish
 
I just want some news from valve....

Yesterday i downloaded the E3 vid. I have already seen the bink vids.

That strider is so amazing :) It got me all hyped up again for HL2 again.
The buggy vid doesn't look so good gameplay wise, but when the "heleicopter" thingy crashed into the player i was amazed.

every time someone makes that age old joke, a moderator grinds his teeth

;)
 
Every time someone posts another one of these stupid polls, I have to make a stupid joke.

everytime some.. oh i can't be bothered :p


but seriously, is there a proper on topic discussion going on or is this another thread for the land of off topicy goodness?
 
We've discussed the crap out of everything we have to go on concerning Half Life 2. This forum has become more of a support group for Half Life 2-aholics than it is a discussion.

I must admit my enthusiasm for HL2 has diminished somewhat since the delay, but only to the extent that it's still uncertain as to when it's finally going to appear. I tend to switch off in cases of uncertainty, and focus on other things. But since the delay the Off topic has provided a fair amount of entertainment. So my routine is, news first, off topic second
:cool:
 
Sadly the hype i had for Hl2 has fallen...fallen hard. I still look forward to the game but not like i used to.

Although...its strange. When i watch the vids, i get kinda excited, but wat really excites me is thinking about the enthusiasm i had for the game. Back in the day when this site was brown, and the forums were white. Seeing the e3 vid for the first time...Man im getting that feeling in my legs already.


I jsut hope this site stays afloat enough to return to its former glory, rather than become a small rarely visited site...or worse, vanish into the ether and beome a myth; People will say things like "I just heard a story about a site...a great site dedicated to halflife 2. They said that the admins ruled over millions (Time often exagerates these things) of citizens" then others will simply poo poo (I watched the best episode of Blackadder goes forth the other day...most wont notice the reference) the idea as make believe. Of course there will be a few "crazy" old guys known only as Mr B, Mr Sparrow and Stone...These old guys will speak of the wonderous times that were had before...The Hack

I dont just say this because im a mod but because this place still has a lot of potential.
 
heh if I feel my excitement waning I watch them again and think hmm now what will I be able to do with that engine once I've got my grubby little mits on it. All these neat features I previously was forced to do in pre-rendered I can do in realtime, and when I get bored I go work on my mod for a bit, there's enough there to keep me busy for years now.

Though those damn test spheres on the HDR demo area annoying
 
Yeah, don't worry farrow, it'll all be fine. Soon, HL2 will be out, and while most of us will be playing it, some will be out there making mods for it. And exactly at the point most of us will have gone through the game, the first mods will come out, giving a rebirth to the whole process. Don't you worry, you guys have the best HL site out there. And I have a really cool sig right now, cool enough to keep attracting new people like a magnet in an ironstore. That should help too.
 
Hmm. Very nice. My sig's just as good though. :)
Oh, Half-LIfe 2 will come out...eventually. They've probably 'done a valve circa 1997' and decided to rebuild the game from scratch. Actually no, they probably havn't. Sigh.
 
Course I was pissed when it delayed, and again, but I really think this is gonna be a great game, and the mods will be just supertacularistical, so I'll wait as long as I have to.

FENRIC! Stop changing that avvy it's getting scarier ;(;(
 
I'm bored out of my mind. Sucks that it didn't come out on the 30th :(
 
I voted:
It's not a major factor. I'm gonna be STOKED when it's announced, but I'm patient.
 
I think about it once a day, i have other things to worry about during my day:p

And anyway, when it comes out, I'll buy it and play it, i dont care if its today or 5 years away, I'll still buy it.

Like DNF, i dont care when it comes out, i'll still be in line to buy it. I wouldnt not buy it becasue its late, or not as graphically good as games out at the time. I would buy it becasue of what it is....the sequel to a great game.

Long live the Duke nukem: Forever foreverness!:p
 
I don't come here for HL2 talk anymore....just off-topic stuff I guess.
