dougkinzinger Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 I also agree. This does indeed suck for Valve. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/106246-half-life-2-beta-leaked/page/6/#findComment-1232624 Share on other sites More sharing options...
blachole Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 Yea it sucks alot. Right when they get close to knowing who stole the source..this hits the net. I'll still keep my reserve though.

Timan Veteran Posted October 7, 2003 Veteran Share Posted October 7, 2003 but it think this is something people will look back on and say **** after all the leaks, betas, source codes, valve still delivered one kick ass game........

MEMO.INC Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 I can only fell sorry for valve programers, This will be the mod-hack-mayhem.. How will this affect game industry, will this mean silent developing, And what about the GPU war, will this affect it...(perhaps nvidia investigating the source for better performance-IQ) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/106246-half-life-2-beta-leaked/page/6/#findComment-1232631 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuphor Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 These leaks are giving HL2 huge publicity. While the leaks definately weren't done by valve, the amount of publicity over the game is reaching fever pitch, and it can only heighten sales. Any publicity is good publicity.

Chi(mera) Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 why? ppl who were going to buy it will still buy it and ppl who were going to warez it will still warez it. this isn't gonna make any difference Let me see here, the people that warez it will not end up buying it so the intended market for this game will drop potnetialy. So no, some people will not still but it, *sigh...people will more than like warez, network it and share amongst friends. So you see valve will lose money = copies sold. laskfhdklasdjlkdj = I win :angry: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/106246-half-life-2-beta-leaked/page/6/#findComment-1232666 Share on other sites More sharing options...
|slobax| Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 HEH hey all, been reading these NW forums for longgg time and just now decided to register, since staind asked so nicely ;) but first the source, then a compiled playable source, now an actual hl2 beta. geesh. looks real though, and makes sense - cause why would the person who stole from valve, steal partial source, and nothing else. Anyone play it yet? good stuff? :unsure: edit: aw, only 1 post, and like 37k member.....i feel like an outcast :cry: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/106246-half-life-2-beta-leaked/page/6/#findComment-1232667 Share on other sites More sharing options...

funkyMonkey Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 I am glad I am not a fan of HL1 or 2 or beta or leaked. I heard this as much as Calif. Recall election. I am glad today the elec. is over. HL topic will go on and on .... I am sorry for those people who love the game and hate the fact of what had happened to it.

dafinga Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 I'm telling you this.... Nvidia hired some P1r4t3s to steal HL2 source while striking a deal with ID Software to make DOOm run the best on their line of cards so they could get DOOM out faster than HL2, so both companies make out gooood. Its a big conspiracy I tell yah!!! :alien: All this to get back in the saddle to boost sales and hurt the true people....the public.

dafinga Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 Someone wouldn't go through all that trouble to only get the source code. I'm sure they probably would have gotten the rest of the files too. Everyone ... cut all the BS about a leak not necessarily stolen. Its WAS stolen. My heart goes out the programmers invovled. Imagine working 5 years of your life and then having it all stolen and not made any money from it. I'm sure if someone stole your $2000+ computer or car which you'd spent months earning you'd be complaining to everyone. This is the same thing. Its STEALING. I hope the idiot(s) who stole the source 1) get the FBI after them; 2) get to spend a long time in jail and being someone else's b*****. They deserve it. And if you actually have the source and the leaked demo why brag about having it? Its no better than being the stolen goods dealer trying to sell your stolen computer. Just my 2 cents. hear hear (Y) Agreed x 2!!! :yes: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/106246-half-life-2-beta-leaked/page/6/#findComment-1232735 Share on other sites More sharing options...

nadesco1081 Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 Wuts up guys. I dont really post alot but I do read a hell of a lot on these forums. I just wanna know a few things, does it run good? and is it fun? Good thing it was pushed back so i could try and scrap together sum money to update my vid card (if the wife will let me :( ) Thanks for posting screens, Im pretty anxious to get this game but im not gonna download the leaked beta. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/106246-half-life-2-beta-leaked/page/6/#findComment-1232746 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Statikk Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 updated: https://www.neowin.net/comments.php?categor...y=main&id=14249Sad news indeed :( Correct me if I'm wrong but I think Vivendi are the only ones saying the game has been delayed till April. There hasn't been any official word from Valve yet other than what was said on www.halflifesource.com. Edit: halflifesource.com just recently updated saying they recieved a email they believe is from a Vivendi representative who says the delay is not confirmed.

Spyder Veteran Posted October 7, 2003 Veteran Share Posted October 7, 2003 statikmat.. Vivendi is the publisher, so what they say goes. i'm not saying the delay is true or not, i'm just letting you know that what valve says doesn't matter. if vivendi says we're not shipping until xxxx, then thats what happens Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/106246-half-life-2-beta-leaked/page/6/#findComment-1232760 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominik Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 i remember the crowbar picture... april 2003. everybody thought it's a april fool,then it looked like the game is finished. now- delayed until april 2004... anyway, i don't mind. i dont have a time to play games, and if i'd like to play any,there are a lot of others. yeah i'm curious, HL2 is interesting, but wtf, i'll play it when it's finished. can't you guys live without this game or what? i don't get it...
