Half-Life 2 Authentication Follow-up [Nov 16, 2004, 10:00 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Steam News
(thanks Frans) follows up on the story below this one announcing that Half-Life
2 authentication issues have been solved:
We have resolved the issues that caused some to experience delays with Half-Life 2 authentication earlier today. We appreciate your patience and hope everyone enjoys the game.
It was bad enough for the industry to train us like dogs to fetch each CD every time we wanted to play a game.
And if you'd bought it off Steam, there's no cd that you have to have in the drive.
What happens if the company no longer runs the authentication server?
Well, ya see, there's this thing called a "patch". They release a "patch" that disables auth. The end.
Have fun!
edit: And BTW...it's "a puddle of urine" or "a pile of shit"...NOT "a pile of urine".
