Woah, Orange Box came out for the 360? How does that work?
Actually, most people here I think are on Steam. There’s a 360 matchmaking thread somewhere linked on the last page. I’ll send you the SRK group invite.
Thanks for the invite. And t1337, it works on Live for the 360, which means we PC players can’t play them. AFAIK
Right. No platform crossover.
I’m a good defensive engineer, but i want to learn to be an offensive engineer. I hear that stuff is nuts.
I’m by no means a great engineer, but I usually play defensively. Like on the 2fort CTF map, I will place a sentry and a dispenser in the intel room. Once that’s set up, I usually go set up a porter from our spawn point to the enemy sewers for a bit of offensive help. Then I either stay and monitor my sentries in the intel room, or go help the offense with my shotgun and monitor my porters.
If we’re losing and I want to focus even more on defense, I destroy the porter in the enemy sewer and place it in the intel room. That way if our intel is in trouble, spawners can just port straight down to it for defense.
How can I join the SRK group via xbox 360?
Good games to whoever joined my game late last night… gonna play some right now in fact
P.S. I am Jammar BTW
Damn we need that patch bad. Played for about 2 hours tonight, and everyone was having ridiculous amounts of lag. Game is still alot of fun.
count me in, in about 3 days haha.
Offensive engineer is actually still really easy, though its more of a forward defense than true offense. You basically just make sure your teleporters are as far up as possible and put your sentry guns near them. It does 3 major things: stops your opponents from pushing you back, gives your team a speed boost to get to the front lines, and gives your team a nice little safe haven to heal instead of running back from the spawn. Having one or two is REALLY nice.
Yeah, I meant the thread you started after I told you to pop in here.
HL2 is fucking great. Never got a chance to play this game when it came out for the PC but I am loving it now. Just got into RavenHolm or whatever that place is. Gravity gun owns everything in that level.
Yup, I’m towards the end of the game now. Can’t believe I didn’t play it before, isn’t it like 5 or 6 years old? This could’ve come out this year and still been a great game.
I’m pretty sure my HL2 is fucked for life. I keep getting “Interal driver error in IDirect3DDevice9::Present()” when playing HL2: Episode One and it happens randomly in TF2. It’s a source engine error relating to DirectX9/Direct3D, and Valve has known about it since June '06 but haven’t found a fix for it yet. I’ve done all kinds of shit to try and fix it, but nothing works.
I hate my life. :sad:
What you are going to want to do is start the game in 800*600 resolution or below, then once you get ingame change the resolution back to your preference. If you get the error message before you can even reach the options menu, then check out this support page for info on how to force certain video settings:

Good luck!
When playing Half Life 2 Ep One, I would also get a driver error and a crash to desktop during a mid-level loading screen, if I was too hectic and banging mouse keys when it started loading. Weird bug IMO. Hitting keys shouldn’t mess with loading. I just had to be anticipating of when I was reaching a loading area of a level, and make sure I wasn’t trying to pump magnum bullets into Alyx’s head like usual.

ROFL, awesome vid. I sucker medics all the time as a spy. I should get a tag like that and give that a shot.
Game loads perfectly fine. This error pops up randomly in game though.
