Icarus ^i^ Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 Been playing around with this since yesterday and I have to say the physics are amazing... can't stop experimenting with it :) Still, some ppl on irc hype this beta too much.. it's still _very_ unfinished... no storyline or anything, just empty maps to play around with... so to those who are tempted to load this, you're not missing anything groundbreaking... but the game is worth waiting for :) Sure there are scripted events, but imho, that's not a big deal... it will be a great game when it's finished and I'll definitely buy it.

un|que Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 (edited) i got it yesterday, the physics are sooooooooooooo sweet!! me and my friend found out how to play it multiplayer over the Internet! :D the only problem is that when u die you go into a blackbox and you cant come out. Lol and gordon doesnt have a model :ninja: . snipped, no instructions to be posted Edited October 9, 2003 by silly_walk Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/106246-half-life-2-beta-leaked/page/21/#findComment-1237931 Share on other sites More sharing options...
un|que Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 (edited) this is obviously not the status of the game 4 days ago.....i believe the reason why it says build -4 - days till 9/30/03 is becuase it is build #4.........and they didnt put in the number of days. there are tons of things missing, including a ton of objects included in the e3 demo. there are no bug bait balls and the maps which were done for e3 havent even been started on yet. actually there are bugbait balls....but u can only get em if u kil that big ass monster. whatever its called. but yea this looks like its in a earlier state than the e3 demo!...i stil gota say that the AI is SWEET! cant wait til the ful game is out! :D definately gona buy this one!

cloudscapes Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 New user at Neowin, and my opinion on the subject. Yes, I admit the reason I registered was from all the HL2 publicity. :ninja: I also admit I downloaded a few RARs of the beta, to see if it was really true and not just another game or gigs of porn. Once confirmed I had no reason to keep them on my HD any more. Besides, on 56k there's not too much I can download very quickly. :rofl: Screenshots posted here look awesome, I can't wait to play the full game! Re: the alledged hacker threatning to release 'everything'. I think this is just some idiot trying to stir things up. The internet is full of those kinds of people, who think they're safe behind the internet wall of anonymity.

~clean Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 Dont no id this has been posted but extarct from te nfo for the patch for the beta !.. <-- LoL a patch ! _________________________________________________________________ / \ | | | Well, I forgot to update you with the freshest stuff from | | Valvesoftware. | | | | Detonator-52.13-ANON got leaked today, its the new NVidia | | drivers for HL2, though i have no fancy video card to test the | | driver on. | | | | Btw., for those of you still thinking -ANON is a group, i have | | to say it isnt. Its just Anonymous. | | | | To all those saying HL2 was delayed because of the hacking | | action, ill just remind you that what was leaked is what Valve | | has, nothing more and nothing less, so its pretty good to | | understand it wasnt finished yet. | | | | Also I'd like to point out the E3 was one big fake by Valve. | | Ever tried to kill that soldier in physicstown ? Notice the | | door will still get kicked ? No scripted sequences ? | | | | To everyone saying this is no Beta: I'd like to point out that | | THIS is what you wanted Valve to release on 9/30/03, theres no | | such thing as a much better release in Valves network! | | | | To Valve: I suggest you stop lying to your customers about how | | much was stolen/compromised, or I'll have to release everything | | just to prove my point. And you know what you got, as I do. | | | | - Anonymous leaker | | | \_________________________________________________________________/ mod please deleat if not allowed Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/106246-half-life-2-beta-leaked/page/21/#findComment-1238207 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timan Veteran Posted October 9, 2003 Veteran Share Posted October 9, 2003 anyone try out the new "hl1 ports" file "anon" has put out? Im skeptical as to what it is, besides straight ports? I think its there for people who have halflife and buy hl2 and when they go to install hl2 it copies the original hl1 and its mods to the hl2 folder kinda like what steam did, i guess so its all in one, kinda nice I think. I wasnt able to get any of em to run but looks like its just a modified hl2.exe and the hl cstrike and the other mod folders.

ANova Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 The big red 'error' is the placeholder art the game puts in place of missing models. Unless this so called patch adds a significant amount of stuff, i'm convinced this is a pre-E3 build. There are weapons missing, a ton of art missing (from the E3 maps mind you) and some E3 maps aren't even present like tunnels and strider. And quite a few maps give error messages indicating they are old versions.
