My roommate just bought HL2 - and I am P****D off about it! Cuz now I cant even play CS her and her clan.

It's bad enough I drove her to the store to get it, it's even worse that now *I* have to try to get the money together to get it myself!

I cant get ANY packages - my ebay auction isn't enough to pay for even the BRONZE package

Its easy to get some cash together (beg / borrow / work / stea..err no)

That hard part is: getting it on "The Net"...

But... If its a roommate, then isn't the computer in your room? which means you can play it anyway?

Just find some old junk and sell that too. People are stupid, if you have an old N64 or something people will buy it on ebay for like 50 bucks.

Hits Habboi so hard that he faints and take the 10p :nuts:

The physics arent so amazing. But if you want to play with physics.. download Garry's Mod.

Sorry about the divorce...

I'm so close..... $47.91 ROFL

I noticed tonight that you can play HL2 with Steam in OFFLINE MODE... That gives my roommate a chance to play the game she wanted anyways... CS:S
Posted 19 years ago2005-05-03 02:16:22 UTC Post #107048
What? Why doesn't she play it on the 'net, anyway?

Have you started downloading HL?? You're buying it over Steam, yeah?

Meh, you should get a boxed copy. Then you can install it on machines with dialup/slow DSL with minimum waiting time, although it can take ages to validate, so if you have fast net, it's quicker to download.

I'm going to buy the boxed copy like MOP said above

Ok, but be prepared for Steam to take ages "validating the files"..
m0p m0pIllogical.
Posted 19 years ago2005-05-03 12:45:42 UTC Post #107103
Yeah I know... I already have it on my machine... I play on my roommate's account.

I hate the way Steam sneakily downloads updates without at least informing you... I know that auto-updating is good, but come on Steam, at least say what you are doing!

It's a bit of an internet hog too, lowering my connection speed everytime it's doing something without me knowing...

I never trust Steam, it's just sneaky... Sneaky steam!

How did I know Jahzel's reply would be about bashing steam? :roll: ;)

:P

Watch out for those updates. If you don't want a game to update, right click the game, go to Properties (in Steam) and select "Do not automatically update this game". That, or be patient. ;)
