Half Life 2 Beta leaked?


Recommended Posts

Hey! i remembered my login!

Ok, you guys asking for the leak, how gay can you get. There an irc server I'm part of that has 120+ users wanting to leech it. Its lame, get over it. Wait for it to come out. If you dont have it dont worry about it.

Valve was stupid, and all that hype didnt help any. I still say CS is gay, and steam is a form of greed.

BTW: I've supported neowin for a while now, wonder where corpseypoo went to :(

and where'd my postcount go *sobs* mustv been lost way back, surpised my login is still around.

1. Call the police and say you killed someone

2. Kill someone

3. Go to jail and stay there ...

J/k ... or am i :shifty:

thats a bit hypocritical, doncha think, mike? you were practically begging for people to tell you how to get it just a little while ago in this very thread...

The only thing they gotta worry about with the source being out, is competitors 'borrowing' engine technology and such

That is EXACTLY what they are worried about. The competition between developers over engines and techniques and hardware is so, so fierce. This still comes down to money, and if some of your intellectual property gets out for others to see, you will lose money, plain and simple while causing your competitors to gain from your misfortune.

Hehe

I am one of those 700+ lurkers.

Just thought I'd pop in and say "wooooah". That RAR file looks nasty. I bet Valve are wondering what's going on.

I am resisting D/ling and running the thing. I can wait until my 46th birthday for when it comes out in April.

/Peace!

I was wondering, does anyone got the beta running in D3D on pre NV30 (like GeForce 4) equipment? It only runs in OpenGL. BTW, I must say it runs great at 1024x768 on my AthlonXP 2600+ and GeForce 4 Ti4200.

The file \bin\dxsupport.cfg doesn't mention any hardware before NV30. I played around with it, adding NV25 strings and stuff but it doesn't work. Can anyone help? (don't wanna send Valve a request for support)

hardcore oldie gamer!

Delayed to April 2004 !!

they can shove it up their ass by then.

why create all the rush, release video, get people excited, and then say wait one year ?

Hey, look on the bright side

at least we know it's not duke-forever-ware =D

Valve + Steam = Vapourware

:rolleyes:

    • I think this will appeal to a lot of enthusiasts. If the thermals are similar to those of a single system in a compact case, many people running multiple systems may choose to combine them into one machine, provided the case footprint remains reasonable.
    • No, "a great deal" for 32GB of DDR5 is $50, not $350. I mean I see what you mean, that it's a decent price compared to what's currently available, but you really should put a disclaimer in this articles explaining that it's still multiple times more expensive than it used to be.
    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
