thanks

hmm jus kurious.. isnt HL2 played online??jus wonderin wat net connec he has he hasn told

Actually HL2 isint played online. You just have to login to Steam when you install the game so as to validate and unlock the games encrypted files. After that the game is ready for offline play. Also Steam checks for updates everytime you run the game.

With your config u can play HL2 at very high resolutions.
But check out the maximum resolution & refresh rate supported by ur monitor.

Half life 2 is optimized for ATI cards so U will be fine, again your CPU, & RAM is enough

Although the performance of Doom3 might hurt a bit as it is NVIDIA Optimised

Does that mean HL2 requires net connection to work?
Don't tell me. I don't have net connection on my PC.

nahh there is a trick
which i read on steam the forums
hope it works for you
hit the steam.exe
just wait a while
steam wont be able to connect the net
so it goes offline
and then starts the game

That's only if he has already activated the game, downloaded and decrypted all game data, applied the updates, chosen to let the Steam client remember his account name and password, and downloaded 100% of the game data. Only then will the Offline Mode be unlocked. Otherwise, Steam will just quit with an error.

Yes Tajesh, HL2 requires the net connection during the time of installation of the game. You will need to let Steam client connect to the Valve servers and download and decrypt the data that is required to make HL2 ready for offline play. The time taken to do this depends upon your connection, so dial-up users can expect a wait of around 2 to 2.5 hrs.

I would suggest you haul your PC to some friend who has a net connection or to any cyber cafe that would allow you to do so.

dude first mention whether u have a genuine or pirated edition of the game

otherwise all the hard work and time consuming posting goes to trash cans

if u have a genuine copy, u may need net connection

if u have a pirated hacked version, u dun need ner connection

PERIOD

yes, steam funda by valve has actually discouraged the buyers of orignal copy of hl2.
Who wants to go through all that mess of activating the game?Specially not in India where we have more dialup users then the broadband ones.
