Please, no more irony, your killing me.
I post here quite a lot, and while I won't get into personal details with someone as petty as yourself, I have a good life, and the fact that I enjoy talking on a forum does not detract from it... biatch.

If there's one thing that truly gets to me, it's when some moron attempts to insult me, and can't even put out the effort to check his grammar. YOU, my friend, are "fucking funny". Now go back to Everquest and let the grown-ups talk in peace. Twirp. |

Weekly Steam News (17/02/05)
Steam's weekly news has been released with some exciting news on an update to Half-Life 2: Deathmatch that will be released later on this evening. For those of you in the UK that will be at 00:00 GMT and for those of you in Valve's neck of the woods, the official release is 16:00 PST. Here's the full news update:
At approximately 4:00 pm PST we'll be releasing an update that primarily focuses on Half-Life 2: Deathmatch. This update will include the addition of the Stunstick, SLAM, and the Crowbar. It will also include a new original map made by Valve, called Steamlab.
Along with the update to the game, we'll be releasing the source code for Half-Life 2: Deathmatch in an update to the Source SDK, which should give our MOD community a wide range of functionality they can use to build their games. We're all excited to see what is built based off of it. The update to the SDK will also allow MOD developers to write their own custom shaders, which will lead to some unique visuals in their games.
Looking ahead to next week, we're still on track for the Counter-Strike update, which will include a new map called cs_compound, along with a number of smaller changes and bug fixes.
For those of you unaware so far, Steamlabs is a map based on the old Deathmatch classic called Datacore made by Jess Cliffe; the SLAM is a trip mine/remote mine launcher and the Stunstick is the same weapon carried by the Civil Protection cops in Half-Life 2.

Updates
* Huge Steam update!
| Halflife2.net wrote: |
Valve has released yet another update over Steam. This one focuses on hl2dm and the source engine itself, as well as including a huge CS:Source update. Here's the full changelog:
Counter-Strike: Source
* New hostage rescue map cs_compound
* Added Source version of de_train
* Upgraded version of the CT player model
* Location names are shown in radio/team chat, and under the radar
* Server tickrate can be specified with -tickrate
* Added radio command aliases
* Added mp_humanteam cvar [any | ct | t] (forces human players onto specified team - useful for humans vs bots)
* Added new "match" mode for bot_quota -- If bot_quota_mode = "match", bot count = (human count) * bot_quota
* Bots no longer automatically follow humans (bot_auto_follow now defaults to 0)
* Bots are balanced before humans with mp_autoteambalance
* Bots can open simple +use doors
* Bots change their names to match the prefix when bot_prefix changes
* Several improvements to bot behavior when paths become blocked -- solves problems specific to cs_havana
* Bots won't throw grenades if something is blocking their throw
* Bots are better at only breaking objects that are in their way
* Fixed bug where a bot occasionally "dithered" rapidly between two or more targets without firing
* bot_kick and bot_kill console commands use the bot's base name without the bot_prefix
* de_piranesi - bots avoid the breakable crates better.
* A bomb exploding just as the round restarts no longer kills players at the start of the next round
* Grenades being thrown when the player dies no longer disappear
* Increased mp_limitteams bounds to 0-30, where 0 will disable this functionality
* Players' arms and hands can be hit by bullets now
* Target ID font is proportional, and it doesn't resize incorrectly after a resolution change
* Overviews don't show player locations when mp_fadetoblack is on
* Players with spaces in their names can be selected in the spectator GUI
* Observers can change their name at round restart
* Throwing a grenade right at round restart no longer results in holding a "ghost" grenade viewmodel at respawn
Source Engine
* Fixed a bug where snd_mixahead was not working properly. Should fix some sound popping problems for certain sound hardware when running at a low framerate
* Added support for a new surround sound buffering technique that streams six discrete channels instead of using DirectSound3D. Use snd_digital_surround in the console to enable this. This allows for support of Dolby Digital 5.1 on nForce2 hardware
* Allow mp3 playback at rates other than 44100Hz. This was requested by the MOD community
Master Server Query Protocol
* Added a challenge number to A2S_PLAYER and A2S_RULES server queries
* setting "sv_enableoldqueries" to 1 (default) allows old style (no challenge/response) queries to work. By default queries don't require a challenge number for clients on the same B class network, change "sv_allowlocalquery" to 0 to disable this functionality
* Changed A2S_INFO server query to require the string "Source Engine Query" appended to the end of the query packet.
Half_life 2: Deathmatch
* Fixed model exploit that would allow players to select an invalid player model
* Added weapon type to server log
As per usual, in order to receive the update, simply restart youre Steam client.

You're lucky...cause even Valve had to make another update after the first one.
Known bugs:
-Cant see money in HUD
-Cant see HP in HUD
-Disconnected for Bad Challenge
-Rebuy button is not working
-All your favorites are wiped out and when you remake the list, it get wiped out again as soon as you restart the game
Not to mention the crappy model they released wearing a Retard Helmet
So as i said....Huge buggy update

If only every game development company supported their games after release as much as Valve do. These content updates are great and help keep the game fresh.

These are no "enhancements" though, these are things which should have been in the game to begin with.

OK Compound sucks, no point to the new model (Want MORE models not replacement ones), Train is good but just a remake. Who gives a shit about bots, totally useless...what else? Nothing worth mentioning...ok I guess thats the only update we get for a long time now.
For fucks sake just finish DoD.

ok lets see..... they got control of CS 1.6.... introduced new guns and a shield. no1 liked it so they got rid of the shield.
CZ came out.... new missions were available to download along with bot updates etc.
HL2 comes out... got new maps, and weapons already
CS:s is out... countless tweaks and new maps. also in nearly every update they make changes to SDK so people can improve their own mods.
I dont know any games 'series' that gets updated as frequently as these. also with VAC2 coming out i think a lot of you guys will stop the moaning about cheaters.

Not really.
It has just about been every month that valve releases an update for CS:S.
Waiting a month for a patch isn't considered 'waiting long' compared to MOST of the other gaming developers.
But i do agree that this update was filled with bugs, but so what really.
It took normal CS years to become semi-perfected, and it has still more to come.
AMD64 3800+, Leadtek 6800 Ultra, 1GB Kingston HyperX RAM, SB Audigy 2Zs.

Steam News:
| Quote: | We've chosen the three winners from the Half-Life 2: Deathmatch map competition. It was tough going through and picking the winners given the quality of maps that the community built, but we feel these three represent the best of the group. The winning maps will be released sometime in March for everyone to play.
We've also been watching what the MOD community is producing lately, and there are some very promising projects underway. Recently, we had the team from Dystopia up to Valve for a few days to get their feedback on the SDK and and help them with any technical issues they might be having. Head over to their website to check out their work in progress.
In news much closer to home, we've been challenged to a game of Half-Life 2: Capture the Flag by the team that created this mod. We noticed on their website that they want to "beat up on Valve" in a match that starts today at 6:00 pm PST. While our relationship with the MOD community usually involves us providing tools and support, we're more than happy to give them a beating in their own game. |

Words were exchanged, gauntlets were thrown down, and the stage was set.
First match Valve beat us 2-0 on ctf_prisonriot. Second match, we beat valve 3-2 on ctf_defrost. The third match was a stalemate, ending at 0-0 on ctf_prisonriot. This leaves the overall score for the match tied up, so we're going to need to do this again in the near future to settle this once and for all!
We want to give a HUGE thank you to all the Valve guys that showed up to play with us tonight. We really appreciate it! |
true to their word.
