Ok I have a new gaming PC and I want to move HL2 off my old PC to the new one. Has anyone done this before? I dont remember what passwords etc. I used the last time I installed the game...heck..I dont even remember if there was a password of any kind

Any advice / steps?

Probably copy the saved game files from whatever folder they are in and throw it in the new one.

And there is a password on steam.

if you don't want to have to redownload the game again thru steam on the new comp, you can back up the game to dvd. heres how:

1. log in to steam
2. go to the My Games tab
3. right click on Half Life 2 and select "Backup game files..."
4. select which games you want to back up and go through the menus to save it on DVD

note: figure out what your steam password is, as you'll need to log in I believe to reinstall it.

tell me when you get your cs:source or day of defeat, maybe we can start a head-fi 5 vs 5 or something =D

I am a CS:S veteran...been killed and have killed many a whippersnapper

I am particularly proficient with the Shotgun and the ...whatsit now... AUG Bullpup?

Love the game...I got stuck at a certain level in HL2 and then life happened...took me away from the virtual world of HL2

I need to go back there and kick some of those fast zombies in the nuts...

^ yeah same. I got up until ravenholm, then started playing cs:s and eventually bf2 and still have not finished the single player game

Prepare to be OWNED

LOL...we should start a clan. the trouble is with the geographic separation and therefore the high ping

Come to USA mikey....this is where it is at

If you guys are serious about this CS:S stuff, then count me in too. I haven't touched HL2 in about 3 months so i'll have to reinstall/update etc. I am on the west coast btw.

What I meant was - the distance between any server here in the USA that we may "lease" and your PC will be large. And usually Large distances = high ping = slow connection.

Does anyone know if online games are UDP? Has to be right? TCP with all the handshakes will slow everything down. Any idea??

For steam? UDP 27000 to 27015 and TCP 27020 to 27039.
