They are lucky their game is popular, cuz they suck at everything else.

The comments on news posts get dumber every day.

On dust2 outside the doors of the B bombsite right by where you jump up on box and can go through the hole in the wall there is an outcrop of rocks ... If you come at it the right way you can clip inside that rock ... Your enemies see a rock ... you see them (if you have ever clipped through something you know what Im talking about)



I discovered this during a scrim one time and used it to my advantage

I don't know, ma_cherie. . . if HL1 never existed, would this level of support and competency be tolerated as well as it is now, or would gamers move to a different game? One could argue that finer games than this have come and gone, dried up before their time because of lack of interest. . .

soon to valve is like the 1.6 release time 6 months to 1 year oh w8 thats all their stuff takes longer than said.



valevs say 2 now add 6-9 =11 add another 2 for good measure and you get the release date.

Does it matter? The fact is that HL1 does exist and it was an amazing game. I doubt what Gabe sat down and said "Ok, I want to make a game, but NOT BECAUSE I want to make an amazing game, but because I want to get a bunch of people to like me!" And even still, you asked would the competency be tolerated? Take a look at other games, such as Diablo 2, which can go two years for A SINGLE PATCH and people STILL wait on it like there's no tomorrow if it doesn't come. You can't say "Oh if the game didn't do hugely popular no one would put up with this shit" because if it wasn't popular in the first place WHO WOULD PUT UP WITH THE "SHIT"? Your logic is backwards, and it just runs into a complete circle.



If a game was popular when it first came out, and people really wanted a patch, they would wait on it. Same with EVERYONE that complains here, you complain and complain and complain about fixing this tweaking that removing this adding that and how bad Valve sucks and Steam blows, and yet you're back here on the patch release posts. But what REALLY kills me is that something everyone has complained about will get fixed in a patch, and without even saying ANYTHING about the new adjustments, they automatically have something new to bitch about it. If people were to go by your (and apparently, everyone elses) logic, then they'd all have stopped caring about Half-Life 2 around the 6th month waiting start.



I'm not saying that Valve doesn't mess up or they "lie" (if you want to call it that) about release dates, but I still see at least one patch every single week. Oh but wait, wait, that's right, you and the other person had said that Valve isn't good at anything aside from being popular. But oh! Wait! What news comment are we posting on?



A PATCH FFS

hrrmm I have been playing a great game that won't get any new patches. And every shot registers and there is no bullshit.



and to be honest.. it almost looks as good as source if you turn up all the visual goodies. It doesn't have the bumpmapping and shit, but for when it was made, I think it gives source a run for its money



One on one is so excellent. It was great for leagues and spectators too.



Its called Quake 3, try it.

Did it fix the "gliding" issue (when you release the movement button your dude still moves a little forward)?

I believe that the 'gliding' is on purpose, to simulate momentum. Don't quote me on that.

I wasn't a fan of HL1. Wasn't really that great imo, just had some kewl things that no game had ever had.

CS is what made HL1 so popular...thats all there is to it. No CS, I would never of gotten HL2 I'm sure as well as many people. So I guess my first comment is wrong.....Valve is lucky some people put together an awesome mod for them to swoop up and take control of.



So you are stupid...now stfu. haha
