VALVe's work is always sloppy

but why?

Is that retail or the 2003 Alcatraz tech demo?

Retail hasnt those round Windows (left side)

I think it does, actually. My memory might be bad, though.

Also you gotta understand HAL, that Valve made these certain map to be played and recorded an EXACT way, they werent planning on people exploring them off the chosen path for recording the videos...

But yes Valve are sloppy and some of the brushwork form the 2001/2002 era is horrific

Technically its still there, they just cut away the bottom half and turned it into an arch window

In Portal, some of the models for railing in the BTS areas are misaligned.

And the Source 2009 version of HL2 is a total fucking mess.

I play the game in Dxlevel 8 (Flame me now) because of my terrible computer, but when I HAVE to download a community made PATCH for Half-Life 2 so that entire CHAPTERS of the game aren't in a fixed (as in, unchanging) fullbright mode, I know that Valve has fucked up something (again).

Don't be a smartass, having that kind of shit left in the Alien Swarm SDK clearly proves they are working on it.

Actually that doesn't mean anything lol...

For all you know it could be the only file they have made rofl.. or it could be a year or 2 old and leftover for some reason no1 knows lol

Then why would it pop up in this game, in 2010?

Only file? 1. That's pretty implausible 2. I'm not talking about files, I'm talking about actively writing the game and planning it, and this pretty much shows they do.

So it proves EVERYTHING.

What happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object?

It's just Vic and Jenkins having one of their friendly "I love valve-I hate valve" arguments.

Even if they DO release it, given what Valve has done so far, it'll most likely crash on startup.

Meh.

In this case, I prefer to use one of the best tips I ever received, from a TFC admin:

"new pc"

=P

Dont take this to offence dude but your examples suck lol..

Me and crash are talking about this right now... Honestly your examples make valve look GOOD compared to what crash & i have seen...
