Mazy Posted November 16, 2004 Report Posted November 16, 2004 Just checked it out here at work Extremely cool stuff, but like 30 minutes into the game theres this place/bug where u can walk behind everything, and just see everything totally nulled off. Ouch! The first impression was totally shattered after that, hope I wont experience anything like that when I play it at home D: Anyway work time, but impressions?
Izuno Posted November 16, 2004 Report Posted November 16, 2004 technial issues galore... first teh specs here at home: Athon 64 3400+ nvidia 6800ultra 1 gig ram WinXP SP1 updated drivers The game plays...then it freezes, the audio skips...and then it unfreezes...then freezes again...then unfreezes...i got as far as where Barney reveals himself like 2 minutes into the game...but it's unplayable Anyone else having this issues? I'll try it at my office machine tomorrow and report back in. thanks
Mazy Posted November 16, 2004 Author Report Posted November 16, 2004 A guy at work had that too Izuno. Now my steam is updating hl2 so I guess they already popped out an update/bug fix or something, it says that it will take 2 hours before its done though D:
curman Posted November 16, 2004 Report Posted November 16, 2004 My specs: Athlon 64 3500+ 512mb RAM ATI Radeon 9800 Pro Card 160gb hard-drive and everytime I opened HL2 it plays for a moment and then black screen and freezes
Fruchtzwerg Posted November 16, 2004 Report Posted November 16, 2004 175 min left! D: Enough time to finish your map
FrieChamp Posted November 16, 2004 Report Posted November 16, 2004 When trying to unlock the game it says "The steam servers are currently overloaded, please try again a few minutes later" :roll:

OL Posted November 16, 2004 Report Posted November 16, 2004 it does the same thing that css does.... waits till a sound/physics object/model/whatever is actually heard/moved/seen before it loads it... so when it does, the entire game stops and waits for it for a millisecond. also the game just crashed when i threw a box at a combine
-Stratesiz- Posted November 16, 2004 Report Posted November 16, 2004 That's odd. I haven't had any problems whatsoever.
Mazy Posted November 16, 2004 Author Report Posted November 16, 2004 Just played it for like the last 2 hours, brilliant game. I just love the entire feel of it, and Ive had no problems with it at all, no bugs or anything, cant wait to get home and play it there ~~
insta Posted November 16, 2004 Report Posted November 16, 2004 Please please please please for the love of GOD dont post any spoilers. Can some mod enforce this? Oh god I would be depressed if I accidentally saw a spoiler.
TomWithTheWeather Posted November 16, 2004 Report Posted November 16, 2004 I just get stuck at the loading screen. I have to ctrl-alt-del to get out. I haven't been able to see a menu, much less play it yet.
