[PimpinWithAaron]

at the time of half life i was only into starcraft and warcraft etc etc

I only got into HL2 cause of all the hype, and found that i liked it

[matt74441]

I didn't think there still existed people who haven't played/beaten half-life 1 yet.  :unsure:

584955211[/snapback]

I haven't beaten it, only because I find the game boring as hell. I also don't like Counter-Strike, if that means anything.

[Varsity]

hl is a big money maker, they will keep making next parts until people gonna get sick of it

584951313[/snapback]

It is a trilology.

[PimpinWithAaron]

ya im finding CS a bit of a boring multi

maybe if some good mods come out ill try those

i wudda luked to have had a multi involving the SP weapons...

[Pentaborane]

Okay I am not far in the game at all......

I just got outside with all these trains really close together... where do I go ??

[Pentaborane]

nbever mind i figured it out lol

confusing game sometimes but very very good - makes you think

[forster]

Just beaten it, I presume all will be explained in the third game. All in all, Im still definately impressed by the game, but I think Ill cheat and try and get that blue grav gun from the start ;)

[GameOverRob]

Just completed it! very good, pleased that i didnt cheat might try it again with some cheats.

*Possible Spoiler*

Does alex die then???

[davekilljoy]

[OrangeSoul]

I can't think of any time when I had to do that.

584955863[/snapback]

Ignore the ships as much as you can, stand to the left of the portal, suck a light ball, then fire it at the portal to destroy the spinning wall.

You need to do it quite quickly.

Oh, and um... spoilers.

[DoNuTs]

Did you guys know you can hang those bitches up like little pictures :p

[Varsity]

Just shoot them with the crossbow. It pins the ragdolls to walls. ;)

Was more fun in painkiller tho;))

[bontakun]

Here is a good page that sums up the current answers from Valve and some possible solutions - link

584954780[/snapback]

well if the vampire game has the problem it's a deep engine problem and valve's responsable for fixing it if they want to keep selling the source engine

Whenever I attempt to change a map in HL2 thru the console, I get

"Disconnected from Server" message.

Im not even in a MP, wtf?

Command I use:

map <map name>

Any ideas on what 2 do? I really wanna try out that blue Physics Gun.

[nX07]

Lingwo thanks for that information!

And my Appoligies to FudgeMonkey if I messed some stuff up for you :)

Thanks for explaining the picture :omg:

[Varsity]

Heh, I thought you said "Do you guys know how you can hang those bitches up like this picture". :p

no worries fella. It's not your fault i don't have the game yet i just wanted to make sure no one else had the same experience as me as the whole PC games forum is full of HL2 posts and i understand how much work this must be causing the mods. I just don't want to have to leave Neowin alone until I have the game, although i think i spy another thread that's a contender :(

Yeah, it disconnects you from the local server and reconnects you in the new map. Just use the commands a few posts up and youll get the gun, believe me, it works.

[Djmutik1013]

The little trick of bringing that blue gravity gun into other parts of the game makes my system run slow as ****. I quess it really is not supposed to work
