I am wondering if the Beta is at all playable? It would be cool to just see what it is going to be like when the game finally comes out.

this response is so old and lame. I dont think there has been a thread dedicated to this topic so let it live! For the record, I have not played the beta yet....but would like to here what others have to say.

Why should this thread be locked? It's not as though he provided a link to where to d/l the stolen source code or the beta itself...

The upstanding citizens that make up these forums would never contribute to such illicit behavior!

Wow, you guys are ruff. Was curious on how far they had gotten on the game before this whole fiasco.

If you have, I vote to ban!

Just like Valve to spend years and millions to have it all publicly released and ruined. Anyone who DLs it, plays, spreads the code around is part of the whole mess and should be reported. Thanks for spoiling all our fun!

I saw some posts on usenet about it. Someone said it only has 3 maps at the time and only 2 of those have working AI. No story events at all. What a shame this whole situation is. Too bad for the programmers, they have lots of work ahead of them.

So it seems like the game wasn't close to being finished. Was this a new engine for HL2 or was it the old one?
