You guys aren't listenning. I'm trying to warn you oblivion, Valve made a warez version as a trap and experiment. They even announced it. People who use it will be banned from Steam eventually and will not be able to register on Steam again, meaning you won't be able to play Half-Life 2 again, even if you bought it.

Valve is running a fake warez version of Half-Life 2. If you download it you'll never be able to play it even if you bought it.
|
Okay, sure...
Unless of course you know how to backup your registry before install.. or at worst, reinstall your OS..

Either way, he's a fucking idiot for just downloading it with the intent of keeping it and not using it just as a trial. I don't see how he can say it's a big let down. The game is awesome. Plus, there's more to it than just the SP...hence why they have CS:S.

Too bad that won't do shit, since you have to log into Steam to run the game.
Also, Doitle, what you said about many people sharing has a flaw. You can share it, but you can't play it more than once at a time with one account. I don't get why people think you can avoid logging onto Steam or that Single Player does not require Steam. You DO have to log in for both Multiplayer and Single Player... Get it right damnit.

Actually, no, you only need to unlock your game once with that steam program and it's history.
of course you need it for multiplayer: the server listings and game joining/hosting is through steam!

Valve didn't release any kind of warez version. They just tracked who was downloading the crack that was already out, and then banned all 20,000 of their accounts.

Flyingfox, wtf are you talking about? I have to log in to play Half-Life 2 every time, it doesn't let me play without logging in. If you have proof, then show me.
And Doitle, trust me, Steam isn't stupid enough to not let any account be duplicated.

Duh, I keep hearing that, but I want to know how. WHENEVER I launch Half-Life 2 it ALWAYS logs in.

You need to lower down a bit and stop jumping to conclusions so easily. Of course I understand what you're talking about, why wouldn't I? You need to slow down a bit and realize that I said I wanted proof about this, but you keep going on and on about how I'm wrong and it does work. Just chill, ok? Since you failed to provide evidence, I went and did it myself and it worked. There, happy?

I told you where to get evidence. I can't show it any other way. I hope you don't expect me to fly to your house with two computers and show you that I'm logging in at the same time?
|
Evidence for me would mean you doing it yourself. I trust you enough that I know you wouldn't lie to me.

Obviously you didn't understand what I was talking about when you said:

I wasn't talking to you when I said that.

Well, while we're on the subject, are you sure Valve doesn't care if I were to use that to let my dad play or to play a LAN with my sister? I don't want to risk getting myself banned for good...

Don't ask us, ask Valve.
I suck cock and love it... absolutely love it. And I just got banned for being too immature to be allowed to post here.
