Let's say I hope it's going to be HL2DM, although I think it's some extra modding stuff. Wich wouldn't be a bad surprize either.

Or Hammer available outside Steam...

They haven't given a release date for DoD:S yet have they? Could be that. Another thing I'm inclined to think is the release of more CS:S stuff, since as Omega said, they have announced more is in the making. The final most likely option, and what I hope it is, is HL2DM, which I can imagine both AG2 and the unofficial HL2DM will be a bit annoyed at making an appearance (less so AG2, who could just turn it into a match mod like AG1 and still enjoy some success).

You have to admit though that it was a bit silly doing any major work on a DM mod before the SDK is out....

Major work? I don't think any of the DM mods could be criticised of doing that to be honest, everything done so far is just design work really.

Takes away both team's opportunities to take their place as the unofficial yet "official" DM choice for HL2. It pretty much entirely destroy's the HL2DM teams mod idea, but at least AG2 were never planning on making it just a DM mode for HL2.

Eh, it's better to have one official mod than two unofficial ones. It'd just lead to a bitter rivalry and senseless forum wars or some random crap with time.

Also, no offense to either team, but I'd trust Valve to set up the base mechanics like speed, movement, damage, etc. etc. and THEN letting mod teams do their own adjustments from there over letting other teams arbitrarily make those decisions from the start. [addsig]

Hot pictures of Alyx naked!!!!~1

Er *ahem*. DM. Yes.

Alyx is rather attractve for an NPC, no?

But i think that they will say "HERE'S THE GREAT SURPRISE: EXTRA SECURITY FEATURES THAT MAKE IT SO VAC SUSPENDS YOU FOR ADDING CUSTOM MAPS TO YOUR GAME!"

YAY MORE STEAM-ING PILES OF DUNG

I hope it's HL2 DM that was the main reason i bought HL2 and i didint know i was gonna get gyped.

Nobody mentioned this but now I think of it, it seems kinda obvious. It is quite possibly some TF2 news, perhaps even a surprise release?

I dunno Reno. TF2 would surely be a great surprise, but I think Valve may go with an HL2DM.

Or perhaps, CS2?

I always toyed with the idea that TF2 may end up being set in the HL2 universe...that would be quite nice.

I'd kill for TF2, but I doubt it's going to come about through valve.

CS2 wouldn't be so soon after CS:S, I think that will be a few years down the line to be honest. Valve have already said that TF2 still exists, so I wouldn't doubt it TOO much TwoKnives (I feel so...dirty...calling you that)

TF2 would be awesome, but ever so unlikely, but we have to wait and see!

Thank god for RSS news feeds and mozilla thunderbird!

I'm not trying to be pessimistic, I just know if I get my hopes up they'll be crushed like a car getting cubed.

they had better not attempt to introduce any other MP crap until they have released HL2DM

TFC was s**t before, it will be s**t again, i am not keen on waiting for HL2DM just because of it.

also, no updates on CS either, they already treated everyone to CS/S, its time for some quality HLDM now.. I want the FULL SDK, or whatever it will take to get a valve sanctioned DM map made.
