mootymoots Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 i noticed a flammable barrel rolling forwards and backwards on its side continuously. Now thats either a cunning idea on valves part to show there is liquid in there, or a bug :) You decide lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mediVh Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 indeed wat i have played is really good, throwing cans at the combine soldiers is funni, hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunky Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 I just need to know, was that valved borked like that...when you first got to it? Because I shot through the window (i think i hit the valve also...) and blew it up. now it doesn't work, and i've got nowhere to go. you don't need that valve, from playing so far the basic drift of the game, i'm getting anyway, is three pronged: 1. once you do something, you probably have to go back to wherever you came from 2. if you see something and it looks like you are capable of doing it, you probably have to 3. if you're stuck, it's probably because they want you to do something with the physics engine if i had those 3 things in mind, i would not have been stuck once, at least up until the point i'm at now. p.s. are explosive barrels going to be this generations crates? p.p.s. not that there aren't plenty of crates in this game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charisma_ Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 try this.make a image of the hole dvd into your hd. creat a virtual drive. and see if it works. How's he supposed to read the DVD to an image if he doesnt have a DVD drive you twonk? Download it from the internet, and use your bought key to activate it. Or spend a whole 10-15 quid on a dvd rom drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lunamonkey Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Install it on your dad's pc, register it with steam. Then log on your pc, login to steam. and download the files through steam. It should only download enough for you to play, not everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
