Lost Coast


Recommended Posts

I know only 1% of you people care, but to the 1% --- check out the status page. Big dip (this is an update dip too, not those regular strait down dips you see once in a while) cause you can see its jaggedness.

Anyways, probably Lost Coast What do you guys think

http://steampowered.com/status/status.html

A dip in the servers translates to something being uploaded to the Steam server ready to be distributed either tonight or tomorrow :p

EDIT: people are guessing that the file size will be around 700mb-1GB.. from reading this, it has caused a few alarm bells to start ringing

For people on Broadband 512kbs-2mb this will take a good few hours

For people still on dialup... (eg my mate whos in the country Broadband isnt round his area) how is he support to get it??

if u bothered to read the update it said that it will be released at the end of this month, and since its now the 26th its nearly out, and the steam/valve forums are saying the same thing.. its due out either tonight or tomorrow night.. my bet is tomorrow night

@ Jdawg683: Of course it will be short - it's basically just a showcase of the technology in the form of an outtake from HL2

right, thats my point, the people that after all these months of waiting, they somehow didnt get the memo that it's going to be real short. :rolleyes:

Not everybody can get broadband due to where they live etc. I feel sorry for them too. I remember when I first got HL2, I was on 56k and it took hours before I could actually play the game. And after that there was no way I was going to let steam update again so I missed out on all the updates. Shame on valve for not thinking about people on 56k.

I can't wait for this no matter how little gameplay it adds, and no matter how much I wont really be able to run it on my feeble system. Of course, I love anything Half-Life, and supposedly this offers a tiny bit to the actual story of the game, rather than just being a series of disconnected events (yeah, anyone familiar with Lost Coast knows its sort of an addition to "Highway 17" and helps to explain how Ravenholme became overrun with headcrabs, even though I though it was already pretty much explained...).
