Re: HL2 - The Surprise is coming...
Open Steam, at the menu if you see Monitor click on it, otherwise in lower right corner, right click the steam icon and choose Monitor.
Or if you need proof the patch did come out, go to www.steampowered.com/status and the little dip in the grey line at the bottom is the time the patch came out.

Re: HL2 - The Surprise is coming...
I'll bet the surprise is HL2 multiplayer of some sort. What else could it be?
And about that patch thing, I suppouse Jonbo is right, but whatever the case it didnt fix my problems, but like ive said, I havent had the problem very bad, it happens from time to time, but its fairly intermittent, and from what I heard not near as bad as some people are experiencing it.

Re: HL2 - The Surprise is coming...
well a HL2 official multiplayer would make sense because valve said a while back, the suprise is for people upset counter-strike was the only multiplayer.
so what people who are upset about that want, is a HL2 multiplayer.
and as long as they had team deathmatch, i guess it would be ok to play around in. i'd be shocked and pleasently surprised if they put a Capture the flag mode in. (cuz i dont like Death match much)
but honestly, Day of Defeat: Source is a STRONG possibility. they said they game would be released around december. and if thats the case im hoping the surprise is that its FREE, like all other mods will be.
They've also mentioned the Team Fortress, saying that its still coming and they're working on it.
thoes are my main 3 guesses.
some say its just going to be new material for Counter-Strike. which i wouldnt be really happy or surprised about.
im just hoping the surprise is something good for multiplayer, id be dissapointed with anything else. unless its an expanstion to the game. lol. or SURPRISE! HL3 ! lol

Re: HL2 - The Surprise is coming...
The reason you didn't really notice the patch yesterday was because it added a command to the console in game and didn't make any major changes to it so it was an insanely small patch basically.

Re: HL2 - The Surprise is coming...
SDK has been released along with HL2's official Deathmatch mode.
http://www.steampowered.com/index.php?area=news
Shame they couldnt of had that done a couple weeks earlier, a lot of the games 9.5 scores woulda easily turned into 10's.
And even tho its only DM, this makes TDM and CTF mods REALLY easy to make now.

Re: HL2 - The Surprise is coming...
I've played around in it a bit. Quite a few servers are laggy right now but still playable.
First impressions. 2 levels. Both are fun. Nice to pickup whatever you want (except cars...yet  ) and chuck it at people. It's fun for a quick DM but the mods I can't wait for now.
