Xylene Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Considering the Steam forums are screwed up (yeah, what else is new?) I figured I'd ask this here. Has anyone tried to order HL2 via steam and get some bull**** like "Declined due to Credit Card fraud blah blah blah" ?! I get crap like that, and I know the card is valid (I had it verified by the bank) but Valve is run by idiots, so I am not suprised by this problem. I know I am not the only one having this problem becuase I saw it on the Steam forums before they totally bit the dust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xylene Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 I wouldn't blame your box. This game has a cluster **** worth of bugs reported already. Valve obviously can't only run/get decent servers, they also can't code and debug worth of ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bithub Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 I know it's early, but I'm already stuck in half life 2. I'm in the Route Kanal, in the place where it looks like you need to go through a tunnel with red lights. The problem is I cant figure out how to reach the tunnel (it is too high). I've attached a screenshot as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingbob Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 I thought Steam had an offline mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xylene Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 I've already given up and decided not to get the game at all. This is ****ing rediculous. I've been waiting two years for the damn game, it finally comes out and like usual, Valve doesn't get it right. I went to Wal-Mart to get it after school, but they didn't have it. I am so ****ing glad they didn't, becuase I didn't know about all these problems (becuase I was at school) so I would have had a royal fit if I came home and couldn't play it after I paid for it.

Varsity Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Yeah, if you've played once, ever you can just unplug your modem and go into offline mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ootput Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Perhaps you could lead a prayer in school during class hoping that god improves steam? 584933471[/snapback] :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veritas 1 Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 what you need to do is go in the other room and climb on the pipes and there is a valve to turn it will flood the room. I was stuck there for a while 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hupp Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 I thought Steam had an offline mode? 584933520[/snapback] yup you can do that but being as it was 4am when i went to bed i just restarted not thinking that the system would take a total crap by afternoon.

Xylene Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 It's quite funny what Valve has done. They did this activation bull**** with Steam so the game wouldn't be pirated as easily, but what do you know, it's been cracked and released already(along with CS:S, but that's been out for a while now). This kind of bull**** does nothing but ruin the game for the paying costumers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pheee Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 It does have offline mode, make sure your password is stored, and to use for best effect, disconnect internet completly. Then its loads pretty damn fast. if you have broadband, i found it tries to connect, even if there is no internet, cause im on a network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xylene Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 EMAIL VALVE AND COMPLAIN TO THEM. 584933534[/snapback] Yeah, so I get an automated reply, right. I am not trying to complain here if that's what you're implying, I simply asked if anyone else has the same problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gshapiro Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 wtf you bitching about? You only had like 500 years to pre-order (and pre-load) it. Now that HL2 is getting rave reviews everyone wants it NOW. No wonder there are problems. All I know is that I am playing it and LOVING it. hehehehe.
