I don't buy that...There is no reason they can't comment on this one way or another. IMO that is what this forum is for. I think enough people have legitimate concerns and they should acknowledge that. I mean we have put up with a lot of shit running dedicated servers over the past few years. I think we deserve more respect then they are giving. It would be nice to know if they even have a plan or if they don't think they can ever get a handle on it at least tell us that so we can get a good third party AC going. The silence is just bizarre to me.

Everyone calm down a minute and think about the overall scope of things. Valve is known for creating at least one, if not several of the most awesome games we have ever played. Development has ALWAYS been plagued by missed deadlines, stolen code, and more missed deadlines. Should a new authentication scheme + anticheat measure been included with HL2 - of course! But this is Valve, and they are probably working on something so revolutionary they can't possibly release it in conjunction with the game it's made for. Even if they posted about it here, we all know any deadline hard or soft would be extended and extended. We will get something later rather than sooner, it will work for the most part, and we will be happy. It the freakin waiting that has always killed us! -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
