-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Nothing is easy and fast at the same moment. One, Valve is busy doing valve things. Two, there are plenty of third party anti-cheats out there. Three, VAC will be the end all when Valve is done creating VAC2.0.
Everyone forgets that it takes time to program. And only a human brain can program a program. Which means Valve is restricted in what it can do. Valve also has more than one thing going on... why? Because they manufactor .. programs. From Scratch. It took 5 (or so) years to develop The Source Engine. Steam and vac came shortly prior and alot buggier because of the lack of time spent between development and release. They have fixed alot of that and are continuing to do what they have spent years doing. Programming things for people. They have a timeline for everything. I am sure they are doing what they can every working day. If you losing customers because Valve has not fixed something or do something within there idea of when they should have because they think it can be done so quick and easily, then I have one thing to say about those 'Customers' of yours. They are undedicated. Meaning no matter what Valve fixed, added, or stopped those people would have cancelled there membership, payments, or whatever anyway. Maybe not right away but it would have been within 6 months. If you are still complaining please stop... there are hundreds of other games out there that you can host for people. I'd like to see Friends List working properly... That's my #1 priority for Valve. Cheats happen, cheats will always be around. Why not sue the people that have made the cheats... since they are destroying your intelectual right to use Valve's Property. The Cheats are hosted on websites wont be hard to find out who has made them... For now til the cheat creators go underground again. Do something constructive instead of crying foul all the time. -------Original Message------- From: [email protected] Date: 01/25/05 04:28:36 To: HLDS Subject: [hlds] Valve's Business & Cheats Sometime you have to wonder who is running the show at Valve Software these days? If you were to run a poll on the STEAM Forums, with the following list options what do you guys think would garner the most votes? What should Valves #1 priority be with Source? More Maps? Fix Bugs? More Skins? Stop Cheats? New Features? Seriously, What feature does Valve Software think will enable it to sell the most games? What do you as Server Adminsitrators think will attract more players to Counter-Strike Source? What do you as Server Adminsitrators think are the main hindrances for adoption by people who don't play the game? What do you as Server Adminsitrators think is a games impediment to longevity for online play? Answer these questions and if you come up with the answers I do, you really have to wonder if anybody at Valve is paying attention. BTW, do not tell me that VAC or whatever fix is coming "soon" Every few months we get leaked the same old shit, promising fixes that never eventuate, so forgive me if I'm in a, "I'll believe it when I see it" mood, since credability and Valve is an oxymoron at this stage. One has to wonder if anybody at Valve cares that this is a majority opinion, or if integrity is such a worthless commodity these days, we should never believe a word anybody tells us? _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds -- _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
