Ive mentioned this before but, who else here is afraid something not right will happen when unlocking/installing hl2? Like it will be unlocking or installing then your computer will make that error noise and it will say corrupted file or something, and you cant have it until valve fixes it. I mean if you think about it, its very possible, i dont know how the whole works but getting the game in 7 seperate peices sounds kinda dodgy, i mean its kinda easy to miss one little file and bam its over. Like in cs whenever your in office and go into console it says some animal sound failed. I dunno maybe im just going crazy. What do u guys think about this?
 
Hey man...take it easy... (starts massaging milkman's shoulders)...everything's gonna be O....K.....relax...
 
It'll be fine.. Just chill...

Valve would fix it in 0.2 seconds anyway.

LOL!! Yeah. That's the way things usually go for me. But with Hl2 it will be more like, i have no money to buy it on release day, so i wait and once it's bought it doesnt run, then after a day or two it finally runs, and jus as the first level completes loading my pc blows up..


and you know, that's just life.. and life's a bitch that just keeps on having babies you know.

just keeps on having babies, cute little babies.
 
since there will be 7 million people acivating the game at the same minute, Valve's servers will either crash or there will be a 37-hour wait line! And I'm gonna sue their ass cuz I'm a freaking business law student! Amen!

bah, you couldnt sue your way out of a paper bag !!! :cat:
 
Valve will have their whole staff on hand at release, just in case something like that happens. Thats garunteed.
 
HL2 release minus-37 seconds : game gets leaked again! Release postponed. New date : September 29th 2005!
 
I'm not worried. 10 GB of bandwidth availability at any given peak, is a very large amount of bandwidth coupled with queuing on network servers and massive data througput within the topology has an end result of excellent availability to users.

I would love to see the bandwidth * throughput calculations Valve has developed to design a network that handles this. Would be fun to see but this type of network topology isn't entirely new. We are looking at a mix of peer to peer and server-based one to many type setups so a lot of requests are handled every second.

Err, sorry. David Firth's Milkman animation is stuck in my head, and your account name (MilkMan12) just reminded me of it.
But back to the subject: No, I don't think that'll happen. Valve has most likely checked the files. They'd be foolish not to, to be honest.

hehe, im crazy about this game, silver came to our school with a picture of the half life 2 logo and under it it said 6 days left!! and put it on a paper clip and hung it on his zipper on his sweatshirt, THAT MY FRIENDS IS TRUE DEVOTION AND A TRUE FAN!! I posted my first post because stuff like that usually happens to me lol. Especially on stuff i really want lol. Its just the way it is for me. But this game really will kick ass.
 
lol you big nerd, you'll have your videogame. let's just wait for it.
 
Thats why i didnt get HL2 through Steam, i thought the download might get a corrupted file, and then id be fuked. Im gettin retail and of course the instalation may still bust up , but at least Il have the proper discs etc.
 
i am not worried and so should you,

panic when the day comes, but it has not come yet so relax
