So I just reloaded Half-Life

[Sluggo]

And told it to check for updates, it took an HOUR to d/l the update on a cable modem.

Did I basically just d/l the whole game again?

You're better off downloading the update yourself.. Sierra is slow..

 

[Xomon]

Yeah it takes forever with that update program. Just download the file yourself. But have fun afterwards! Half-life is such a fun game..

If you let it pick a slow server, yeah, it will take that long. The update is 60+MB. You have to choose/cancel until you get a server with a respectable D/L rate.

I reloaded H/L just a few weeks ago, and found a server that D/Led the up date in under 5 minutes. (It took me 15 minutes to find a good server, though )
