If you've got a fast net connection just do it through Steam. rock:

ok. rock:

Really good game so far, things seem t pick up when you get the manipulator gun, and lamar > all biggrin:

Still trying to figure out how that retard at gamespot can say theres nothing new in this game, he musta played it for all of 5 minutes if he found nothing new. oOo:

This is a noob question but if we pre-ordered, do we get it in the mail or do they load it onto our computer automatically?

Depends if you ordered from a store or through steam, through steam you gotta preload the game.

gerv i wanna see one of your screenshots

Nice shots. I can't wait NOT to play this until wednesday night, after my
Network Routing exam... mwah:

does HL2 have all that physics stuff, and all that interaction with the enviroment?

basically everything you see on the ground, can be used for interaction. first thing i did when i started playing was grab a bottle and smash it on a co-workers face. he replied "watch it"

im stuck, on that water hazzard mission. i cant figure out what to do for that big steel water gate. the valve is broken to open it. wtf do i do?

yea i got it through steam and im preloading now. WTF its taking so long to update!?

Blow up the flame barrels to your right when you walk out the door. I just beat that part.

Christ this game is intense. Everything can be used. I lvoe how you had to use those big ass blue water gallon things and bring them under water and stick them in that netting thing so it would teeter the bridge so you could get up that wall on the boat. I love how you can throw basically anything you see. Amazing game definatly worth the wait!!

offtopic:

why is the time going up now when im updating wtf!

Im in the trap town levels and having less fun in them as i had when i was on foot in the canals. the airboat was ok when you got to stop and fight and figure a puzzle, aside from that it wasnt to much fun not being able to do anything about that damn helo. Spoiler: But once the gun was straped on it was ok. I love how damn near everything can be manipulated in some way, now that i have the gravity gun its even more open to messing with things. Im not extreamly far into the game yet as it seems to be fairly long and so far im finding it well worth the 5 some odd years in development. It even feels like the original, sounds that carried over, and the "cutscenes" you take part in are all just the same as the original. Utterly impressive, i wish i didnt have to go to work tonight or i would have played more.

i just read the only MP on this is the CS:S


now im not getting it, until I read somewhere there is gonna be some other Mp

can't play because the steam network is down

Can you play single player cause ive loaded it and everything but when i go to play, it shows the valve video and then it says its loading but doesnt do anything. it just keeps loading and ive waited like 10-15 mins?

bean, if you have zonealarm or some firewall program where you have to give it permission to access the internet, disable it or give it permission before hand, or minizme it and see if that is the problem.

In just MINUTES! (245 mins 11s) I'LL BE PLAYING HALF LIFE 2!!!!!!!!

God bless you steam!

This game is frickin' great, my decent pc is a:

p4 3.0 ghz
512 ddr
120 hd
radeon 9800 pro......

BUT.....

All I've had to use is my old pc to play because i need to fix my modem on the good pc.

It actually runs damn well on my:

Dell dimension 4300
p4 1.5ghz
1gig sdram
..and a GEFORCE 2 TI!! lol bout 25-35 fps I reckon, i was expecting 3-6 fps.

very little slowdown at all, this game looks gorgeous and all my details are on low. However I'm not playing anymore due to the fact i wanna play thru it on high details. The phsyics are great, love the ragdoll effects too, I actually laughed about the 'can in trash' part.

However on this old pc i had troubles with Steam, took bout 30mins to install, 45 mins to unlock the game and I had log in problems too, hope they fix it all.

I fucking love it, so many nice sequences, I don't know how anyone wouldn't wanna play it, I've yet to try CS which shall be nice.

Don't post any spoilers in here.

I wanna jump off a high City 17 building to test out my physics freak:

God I cant wait to get this game... I dunno.. I think I`ll get it for my B-Day in 29 days from now:) happy:

i thought the game wouldnt even work on my pc but was i wrong everything is jacked without AA on and it runs perfect

AMD Athlon 3200+
768 ram
Rad 9600se 128mb vid card

GAME IS AMAIZING, its a thinker aswell hopefully the thinking gets more in debth with these mini puzzles

You fucking bastards! Here I am, looking at 300 pages of Cisco networking
while you douchebags are playing my game! I'm getting this baby when my
test is over and you better believe I'll install it right away and retire from all
that is social for no less than a week...

I'm playing everything on full detail and at 1280X960. Looks beautiful. I'm driving on the coast right now in my buggy.

Christ im still in that one city with the jumping monster things, a city with an "R" for a name.

ranholven or whatever. Yeah, that place kinda sucked. those jumping things suck. and those little black head crabs really suck. The beach part is pretty much right after ranholven.

Im constantly out of ammo on that level lol, the crowbar is a life saver.

i've never totally ran out. I ran out for the shot gun but then found more ammo. shotty is best for those jumping things.

I personally like battling it out with the combine forces or whatever they are. Their the most fun.
