Nocstar Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Well i guys i know your fustrated but come on, the patches will come out soon. Look how much patches hl1 had... it went up to 1.1.1.0 before steam right? i mean i couldnt even play quake 3 arena untill the 1.32 point release.. and thats years after the quake craze started with my old computer. the game came out today...give it a break guys :) By the way i could be saying this because for me steam works freaking great.. 1.4 mb/s downloads are the shat!! Hl2 is worth it guys.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iownyou14 Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 My friend has a P4 1.4GHz, 256mb ram, and GeForce2 MX. Does anyone have similar specs and can play HL2?? If you do, can you post some pics and average fps. It seems he can run doom3 on low, so i bet he can run hl2. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXsub Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 everyones moaning and complaining about this activation.. but to be honest and fair for both sides, its pretty equal and good. i mean, it stops piracy straight away, and the customers who really like it will obviousely want half life 3 to come out at sometime.. so, giving em cash helps em. plus other factors are involved also.

Hell-In-A-Handbasket Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 i know its hard, im not denying that, piracy rate is to high to count in china. Hell-in-a-handbasket, I really don't think you have any idea how hard it is to get a legit copy of a game in China. I'm Chinese myself, and although I don't live there, for the 2 months that I was back to visit a couple of years ago, I never heard of anyone buying a real copy of a game (from my relatives). There is simply no market for that kind of thing. If you actually bought a legit copy, a lot of people would think that you were retarded for wasting your money. That's the way it works over there. I think I saw one or two real copies in department stores for 400 yuan, while around the corner on every single road you have copies of any software/game that sell for 1 to 5 yuan. Things may have changed in two years, but I doubt it has changed much. 584934800[/snapback] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caboose447 Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Hell ya! I totally agree with you eXsub! For a while I was sharing a key with some friends for Half-Life and CS, and DOD, etc (before Steam) and that was a pain in the ass! I ended up buying Half-Life platinum and I love it! I'm playing it through again on harder skills! It r0x0rz! ANd now that there is Steam, Its so much better! VIVA STEAM! LOL But ya, You can still pirate games over Steam (my brother downloaded CS:Source and played it) but its not the same, and what u need to do inorder to play it on Steam is a headache in itself! Not worth it if you ask me! Valve needs the support! They are awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AminoSC Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 From reading all of these posts it would seem that this was a horrible product launch. I'll bet the folks at Valve are freaking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingbob Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 After playing for another 3 hours, I'm completely amazed. This game is incredible. The graphics are incredible. I can actually max everything out on my littled oc'ed 9600Pro at 1024*1280, and it runs smooth, and only flitters on outdoor scenes. Now I have this problem - I really want to play it, but I don't, because I don't want there to be nothing left to play. I DON'T WANT IT TO END! :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shakey Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 i havnt had a single problem at all with this game. it unlocked just fine, only took it like 5 mins to unlock around 3am hehe. on my athlon xp 2400 runnin at 2.00 mhz, with 512 ram, 5700 fx ultra , it get a constant 50+ fps usually, unless its a big outdoor area, then it will drop as more and more action comes. but nothing unplayable ever. i do wish the sound problems would get fixed. either a new driver for our sound cards or something. i just hate how the sounds cuase game studdering. but other than that, i have to give my hand to valve. this game has given me more than my moneys worth, and i havnt beat it yet. Even with all the hype around its release, i think this game still blew my mind in how u can interact with everything. anyong who says this game sucks, needs to just quit gaming, cuase this has certainly put a new edge on fps.

I waited years for this **** and now I can't even install it...gives me some bull**** error message "The installation package could not be opened. Contact the application vendor to verify this is a valid Windows Installer package." wtf is up with that? I search through all the forums and couldnt find anything like this posted. btw I'm trying to install with the CD's i bought at a store.

nookadum Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 If you guys are having problems with Steam, just go around the web and get the crack. :laugh: I have a legitimate copy, but Steam was ****ing me off, so I took it around back and shot it dead. However, if you're gonna play online, I suggest you backup Steam before you crack it. And please, anyone, don't give me his "piracy is bad" bullcrap. You're just gonna make yourself look more stupid. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
