Ok:

1) Half-Life won all of those GOTY awards (and a year or two of those Best PC Game of all time by PC Game) BEFORE CS came out.

2) I've beaten HL 5 times. Sure it's not more than how many times I've launched a MOD for it but it's still a good amount. Also I bought the game when it first came out not later on. Hell I was playing it on a POS P120mhz that didn't meet the requirements but it ran fine and I still enjoyed it (hmmm kinda reminds me of now with Doom 3).

3) Out of CS, Day of Defeat, and the Specialist I've played The Specialist the most then Day of Defeat then CS. I've probably played CS for only a month while the others much more.

4) The #1 thing I'm looking forward to with HL2 is its single player. And of course if you ask CS players what's the #1 thing you're looking forward to with HL2 they will say CS: Source. They're CS players!!! What you expect!?!

5) Saying that it wouldn't sell at all if it didn't include CS is absurd. A sequel to one of the best games of all time would sell no matter what. You see people not buying the Final Fantasy games? Or the Mario games? Zelda? GTA? Or Doom 3 for that matter since it doesn't have a big multiplayer.

6) Many CS players are annoying and immature 13 year olds that wouldn't know a great single player game if it came up and bit them in the ass.

7) Do you know how many people were wowed and excited when HL2 was first announced and shown. That was a year BEFORE CS: Source was even announced.

8 ) I would rather have the BEST Single player experience rather than the best multiplayer experience. I'd rather have them spend all their time working on a great single player. Fuck multiplayer. SP > MP

I see that you like NOLF 1 & 2. I thought NOLF 1 was an excellent game but was disappointed with the second. I thought the humor and the levels weren't as good.

AnimalMother how could you say that HL2 is gonna be a crappy rehash of the same game?


1) True, but CS is and has been the most popular online game for many years. Wink

2) Ok.

3) Your personal preference holds no bearing on which one is better.

4) And if you ask non-CS players (like you) of course they're gonna say not CS. Wink

5) Maybe, but I think it would hurt sales. I will definately say CS will HELP the sales in significant amounts.

6) Heh, we'll leave tired stereotyping claims alone.

7) Just because they wow'ed and ooo'ed and awww'ed and got excited doesn't mean they will buy it. Especially around here. Wink Not to mention the 38509348509450943 IRC n00bs who also won't necessarily buy it even though they are excited.

8 ) Your preference. Personally I will buy HL2 to be granted a key to play online (through CS:S and future mods).

The game you mean is F.E.A.R. and comes out if all goes well in second quarter 2005 and has a very good engine. I have seen some vids and screenshots and it blows, after half life 2 it will be one of the contenders to the crown of FPS I think.

Greetings,

Could be cool if they used the Doom engine or Source Rolling Eyes


The company is working on a new game with very good graphics. Don't remember It's name and what engine it uses though but I think there won't be any more nolf games.

Same. I haven't tried Doom 3 online yet and I've barely played Far Cry online.

Oh and sorry AnimalMother. Misunderstood what you were saying.

4) I'm not a non-CS player. I've actually played CS for quite a while. Maybe more than a month. And I've enjoyed it. I also bought it for the Xbox (big mistake). Would of kept it but I thought my friends were getting it but they didn't.

5) It might hurt sales but just so slightly. Plus wouldn't people think that if it didn't come with CS: Source it would be made soon after HL2 came out? The man thing I was arguing against was that he said it would not sell at all. That's just absurd.

7) Hey piracy doesn't mean jack. Look how well Doom is selling and every other game that has been pirated. Plus if you pirate HL2 you probably won't be able to play it online.

But if the only online component at the time will be counter strike the game is worth the download, unless you adore counter strike. IF not then it's a single player and single player games are meant to be downloaded Razz

And do you think everyone downloads a game cause it's single player? NO. Give me a break. Saying a single player is meant to be downloaded is a disgrace. There are many many many great single player only games out there that diserve to be bought. Stop being so ignorant.

I think that he's referring to the fact that the only reason that he would buy a game is if it was imposible to download for free and play it in its entirety. I'm refferring to te fact that most games that have a multiplayer component make it impossible to download and crack and to play on legit game servers. I have to say that I use to be like him. But alas I grew up and I understand that in not supporting the games that we like we deminish the hopes of more games like it to be released. This is partly the reason that many games nowadays target the consoles which are harder to pirate.

My point: Grow up people and buy the games that you like! The developers deserve our support!

i will only buy it for the Source mod and hopefully Firearms if they create it for HL2

as for SP i will play it but wont really bother about it because i hate the storyline
i hate shit like alians and monsters in a FPS
like Doom 3 and Half Life 2
i am more like a real enemy type of player
as in SOF2


I totally agree. I recall in halflife when I finally encountered the marines. That was the best. They were intelligent, trying to flush me out with tactics.

Doom is up there half life isn't. Half life is known for brining counter-strike to the needy kids from all over the world. Ask any 'recent' counter strike player did they play the single player of half life? Ask them! You know what they will say? IT SUCKS! IT'S HORRIBLE! COUNTER-STRIKE OWNS HALF LIFE! Half life won those awards because of its modding compatibility thus giving it begazillion (?) hours of replay time. Tell me how many times have you played the single player? More than the times you launched any online mod? I’ve talked to some of the counter strike commuters and I’ve asked them this many times. What is the most important thing you will be looking for in half life 2? They said counter-strike! I asked would you pay for half life 2 if counter-strike: source were free? They said NO! Face it! Not many people feel about half life as phlex feels about doom. It’s something you have to appreciate. You do appreciate half life 2 and I respect you for that but the only reason it will get sales is because of counter strike and then when further modifications will come out. If counter strike: source were free half life 2 would only leave it’s shelves because some people were curious but immediately they would go back playing their counter-strike: source after 15/20 minutes of playing the single player of half life 2. And do you know why they would go back to counter-strike? Because that it is AWESOME!


Yep, i played a shitload of CS, never even touched HL single player. Good point but i still thing with the big hype for HL2 and its A.I. graphics and all a lot of people with play both.

Thats a shame. The single player of Half-Life was very good and award winning in its innovation to the FPS scene and the original multiplayer aspects were very good before counter-strike as well.

Yes that was indeed very stupid, I don't think I wanna watch that file because it contains the ending and many other spoilers.

OMG! HL2 will be available for preload later today. I read that it was supposed to be 2gb out of 3.5gb. That's gonna take some time. Not going to sleep today because I don't wanna see a message that says that the Valve servers are busy.... Just preloaded CSS which was 240mb (?) and it took some time, wonder how long 2gb will take heh.

I just had a look for some info about it and it seems there are rumours that the preload will start today or tomorrow but there will be several weekly preloading sessions so one week textures and audio will be preloaded then the next week something else will be preloaded and so on.
