Well that's what I would think, that after authing you could goto offline mode 
but it sounds like that does not work.  I can't imagine that's intended, if so 
that's pretty dam weak.

You can play it offline by entering offline mode within steam. However
the game will need to be authenticated after installation which requires
an internet connection.

Surely when it has hit gold status the release date is set and that is it
people wait and it comes like that. Their release date is the 16th November
2004 and people should expect it then end of story.
I know that there has been a LONG wait for HL2 but the gold status has set
a
firm date for the release.

You'll most likely have to exit steam and restart it.  If you really
wanna be sure...then why not set steam so that it automatically starts
with windows, and schedule a reboot at 12:01PDT on your box?

The forum is being drowned by people chatting about HL2's immanent release,
we had to disable it for now. Content server bandwidth is increasing because

The date has been confirmed for over a month. Release time schedules

Just as any other release is effective at 12:01 local time of the

RE: [hlds] Release date and time for HL2

2004-11-15 Thread Matthew White
Surely when it has hit gold status the release date is set and that is it
people wait and it comes like that. Their release date is the 16th November
2004 and people should expect it then end of story.

I know that there has been a LONG wait for HL2 but the gold status has set a
firm date for the release.

Matt White

I read it - posted by "moderator". While it's probably credible, I'm rather
surprised it's not splattered over the main page, and the news page. I mean,
we are talking about the release of what may be the the most anticipated
game ever. The relase date is BIG NEWS. The release second is BIG NEWS.

Clog the list? This list? Us? Never happens, nothing but pertinent
information related to hlds goes through this list lol.

If there was a date/time confirmation on SteamPowered, this would be BIG
NEWS, and would be plastered all over the site. This is the most current

Half-Life 2 For Sale?
November 13, 2004, 4:57 pm . valve

If you have purchased a copy of Half-Life 2, we are sorry you are still
waiting to play. This is not Valve's choice. Vivendi is insisting that the
game has not yet been released, and has threatened that Valve would be in
violation of its contract if we activate the Half-Life 2 Steam
authentication servers at this time.

Thanks for your patience and we will update you when we have more news to
share.

There has been no official word from Steam as to what time it would be
