It shouldn't be any different then CSS really, unless the level designers go nuts and allow everything to be thrown, then lag could be a problem. ;)

Valve has said it will be out this week.

And the pic appears to be Valve's standard "take an in-game pic and airbrush it up". Which is cool. :)

Doubt it will be good. I was hoping for a different surprise :( Oh well, DOD:Source is speculated to be released sometime in December, should be sweet.
2004-11-30, 7:36 PM #16
Is there an all out artice or something? Because all I see is a picture. And that picture hardly screams, "HL2 DEATHMATCH" to me.

But hey, whatever.

There's many people in a room with a toilet flying through the air. If that isn't a deathmatch... :p

The top ten times in history when using the "F" word

10) "What the *&%# was that?" -Mayor of Hiroshima - August 1945
9) "Where did all these *&%#ing Indians come from?" - Custer 1877
8) "Any *&%#ing idiot could understand that." - Einstein 1938
7) "It does SO *&%#ing look like her!" - Picasso 1926
6) "How the *&%# did you work that out?" - Pythagoras 126 BC
5) "You want WHAT on the *&%#ing ceiling?" - Michelangelo 1566
4) "I don't suppose it's gonna *&%#ing rain." - Joan of Arc 1434
3) "Scattered *&%#ing showers...my a$$!" - Noah 2114 BC
2) "I need this parade like I need a *&%#ing hole in my head!" -
JFK 1963
1) "Aw c'mon, who the *&%# is going to find out?" - Bill Clinton 1997

... Yes, lots of people with a toilet fly through the air. That same image is also dressed up. Right off, to someone who doesn't own the game, knows nothing about it, and hasn't really cared to much about it, that can mean ANYTHING. It could be an ambiguous post with the true meaning being that they'll be selling posters like that soon. To someone like me, with a lack of knowledge about HL2, that image can mean anything. I don't make it a habit to look at the names of every image I run across online, so that point is kinda void.

I'm not saying I don't believe this. I'm just saying that if I had run across that on my own, there is NO way I would've gotten "Deathmatch" out of that picture.

Joke. It was a stab at you, and how you failed to make a fairly obvious connection. But it was a joke, as I'm sure you don't normally have that problem. In fact, I'm sure a similiar thing has happened to everyone. Joke. winky ;)

Its kind of ironic that they are only accepting entries for their HL2 DM Mapping Contest on CD or DVD, when they arent willing to even release all of their own content on CD/DVD.
