yes
but the cost was passed over to the customer.
It
might be harder for valve to sell this "new" anti cheat solution to current
users.
Actually I am wondering if Valve made any money with the commercial CT .
It might explain why they (for the time being) refuse to buck for
PB.
It is
another blow to the CT community. I am going to miss PB. I can t play on a
non PB game without thinking every second:
- Is he that good or is he cheating? I spend way too much time trying to
figure if he is cheating and how he is doing it.
it is
a sad day today.
And they deserved it just as CounterStrike Team
did....

Objet : RE: PB no more.....
I think if you read the news REAL close. They 'offered to do business
with'...... Me thinks the punkbuster people don't want to work for
free
anymore. I've approached Valve about 'doing business with' me for running
a
free server. They've turned me down too. (Removing tongue from
cheek.)
I'm a little disappointed.
I'm very sorry to hear this. With all the
hacks out there PB is the only way to keep some of the less learned
cheaters out of some servers. Unfortunatly there are so many cracks that
bypass PB at this point, even on a PB required server there is
usually at least one or two cheating. My big question at this point is why
Valve isnt working with them. I realize we dont have all the information
as to how it would be for Valve, legally etc. But I think that a reply
from valve as to why would be nice.
