Doth my eyes decive? Spetember the 3rd, the wait is almost over!

:biggrin:

Wait for an announcement from someone, companies often "make up" dates like this just to keep their database's/waiting customers happy.

Urgh.

After hanging out on the halflife2.net forums for a year or so, one tends to develop a deep hatred for this type of thread.

They're guessing, that's it. The last thing we've heard from Valve is that they're hoping to ship the game to Vivendi in August.

I belive its fo' real this time, otherwebsites say that the realease date is sometime in september.

This is because Valve hope to deliver to Vivendi in August. Common sense dictates that the game should roughly be released around September. Beleive me, there is no release date. I hang out in the largest hl2.net community on the internet. I would know. :smile:

my advice, you may be watching the wrong doors then :heee:

I'm going to make two predictions about HL2:

1. It'll turn out that City 17 is located somewhere near the Black Sea/Sea of Azov in Ukraine. Perhaps it was formerly Odessa...

2. Retarded physics maps that have a bunch of vehicles and crap in an open area will replace killboxes in popularity, and if you make a serious HLDM map that doesn't have a drivable dune buggy or two sites like GlobalAssault will think it sucks.

Ditto about the "new killboxes" - shockingly possible. Assuming HL2 multiplayer is DM in nature, of course.

Otherwise fear new fy_ map, now with added......nothing! Its still a cr*ppy fy map!

fy_iceworld now ... take advantage of the new engine effects ? Naah ...
