update from Gabe @HL2 Fallout

[SaL]

Quick update:

- ATI/CZ users will get turned on later tonight for the CS: Source test

- An update will be out today as well. This is largish (~60 MB).

- The size of the update is due to the Video Stress Test it includes. You'll be able to do some initial performance analysis using this test and report the data back to a central server. The results of the VST will be posted on Steampowered.com.

- HL/2 pre-load will begin tomorrow. It was ready yesterday, but we decided to use the bandwidth to get out the VST first since I get pelted with zillions of questions from people asking how their PC will run Half-Life 2.

Why does Gabe always post over at HL2Fallout? We're so much bigger and cooler over here at HL2.NET!

They're VALVe bashing posts are friendlier and infrequent

A person went to Valve and Interviewed Gabe about Hl2's compatibily with mods and Gabe told him to post his imformation on hl2 fallout and not hl2.net

Yes! Take that, crackers!

Nice to know HL2 preload is going forward. :bounce:

 

[Dedalus]

if it's being released at night for you guys, that means it'll be morning for us!

 

[Sasuke]

*sigh* No more speculating on when it'll be relesed "on the 18th". Now we get to speculate when exactly it'll be released "tonight".

Thanks. Awesome, a VST test! hopefully the cz/ati hl2 beta update will fix the skywalk exploits.

Anyway HL2fallout and HL2world has good folks - not sure about the quality of people at HLR/s and PHL guys though.
