Valve sends along an update on two upcoming Half-Life patches that are due to be released in the coming weeks. The first patch will include the already available Deathmatch Classic mod, among other changes, while the second release brings the Voice and the Multicast Spectator technologies. Here is the scoop:
Two Half-Life Updates Coming Soon
Half-Life updates 1.1.0.7 and 1.1.0.8 will be released in the coming weeks.
Update 1.1.0.7, which contains Deathmatch Classic and introduces new
update/downloading functionality, will be issued next week.
Update 1.1.0.8, which contains Voice and the Multicast Spectator
technologies, and was previously referred to as 1.1.0.7, will be released
in mid July. This update also contains a fix for the GL wall hack, and
will be previewed at this week's CPL event in Dallas.
The Voice and Multicast Spectator features will be compatible with all
Half-Life Mods, and Valve will be supporting the Mod teams to have these
features working immediately in popular HL Mods such as Day of Defeat and
more.
