Haha yea... I am very pissed that Valve hasn’t had more support for Steam related technology since the release of Half-Life 2... I mean Steam has been buggy and weird in general, and had poor anti-cheat protection for a while now... but now that I've forked over $60 for half-life 2, I kind of expect a lot of these things to be resolved by now, or being fixed very quickly as we speak.
Don’t get me wrong, I see the potential of steam as being something really great.. but right now with the flakey friends network being practically unusable, and no anti-cheat/hack protection, its all totally worthless... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Roc Sent: Tuesday, December 14, 2004 10:39 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [hlds] When will the "nosteam" hacks be fixed? You must not forget to get the media involved (c-net, zd-net, abc, cbs, post, times, etc..). Only then will it truly work. Happy Holidays Andrew R.
