I've had a look in SteamUI.dll myself, it's right there. It MUST be the surprise Valve were talking about. Sing and rejoice!
What IS interesting, is that it seems to be a seperate game from HL2. Could it be more than just a simple DM mode?

Why must you toy with my emotions like this?!
EDIT: What does this even mean? It's probably just some holdover from earlier development.

That string only appears in Steam clients that have been updated since
the release of HL2, i.e. have had the patch installed.
I didn't find it, but I did figure I'd confirm it for myself.

For those who don't have a hl2.net account (myself included), I hosted
the image on my pit. Seems like a Steam background or something. Either way you slice it, looks like good times.

This is indeed good news- guess I will be mapping for HL2 then.
There could be some cool team-based stuff with Combine vs Rebellion forces, too...?

Gwil is planning on setting up a Snarkpit server, no doubt including
HL2DM. He'll be setting up a system to allow donations so if you plan
on using the server a lot, you might also think about giving a little

Unfortunately, this update has caused hl2.exe to fail to run and thus none of our Source games are working at the moment.
That, or the server load is so great it refuses to load the games.

You could be right but don't get peoples hope up because you could be wrong. That is the answer but what is the question?
