The "I EMAILED SOMEBODY AT VALVE!" thread, post your questions and replies here - Games

When I was at Valve, Gabe even said its not just a copy or stamp, he really signs it. When fans send them things they send out a company wide email telling everyone that there is something to sign. (I even saw a poster being signed while I was there) plus Gabe signed my HL2 mug right in front of me

[QUOTE=Legend286;30885948]That's really fucking stupid, at least it's not world-wide...[/QUOTE] YouTube is an american website, so it applies to them.

Little late here, but I've compared the signatures on the Saxton Hale comics to my own, and their all in slightly different spots. They're not copied.

[QUOTE=Dalek;30913237]YouTube is an american website, so it applies to them.[/QUOTE] Depends, some of YouTube is based in other countries such as the UK. So for all that I know game videos could be blocked from the US but not the UK.

[QUOTE=HetsuProcyon;30913635]Depends, some of YouTube is based in other countries such as the UK. So for all that I know game videos could be blocked from the US but not the UK.[/QUOTE] That's just by checking IP, and then they have severs in other countries to make uploading and viewing faster.

It's been exactly two months and I didn't get anything, I give up.

I already have a signed saxton hale comic, should I try and get a poster signed by everyone?

[QUOTE=alexk;31023308]I already have a signed saxton hale comic, should I try and get a poster signed by everyone?[/QUOTE] You could try getting one and resending it to me. :frown: But yeah, why not?

It's very unplayable and gives HL2 a bad name. Please for the love of Valve fix the game. Thank you, Daniel Button[/code]

That's a very minor problem and I'm pretty sure the game is still playable.

That's not the only problem. If you play the game you will notice a shit ton of problems. Such as flickering npcs and some sequences not starting at all.

Damn, valve is awesome :D I really hope I could go their HQ sometime Also, this is a really old thread.How come it didn't get archived

[QUOTE=.FLAP.JACK.DAN.;31073312]That's not the only problem. If you play the game you will notice a shit ton of problems. Such as flickering npcs and some sequences not starting at all.[/QUOTE] I'll play the game and then get back to you on that

You didn't get back to me.

[QUOTE=.FLAP.JACK.DAN.;31073312]That's not the only problem. If you play the game you will notice a shit ton of problems. Such as flickering npcs and some sequences not starting at all.[/QUOTE] HL2 worked perfectly fine for me

When was the last time you played it? I'm certain I'm not the only one since there is a thread filled with bug reports in the SPUF.

This is not a "Half-Life 2 is broken and I must whine about it" thread.

What with everyone emailing chet? I thought everyone loved robin.

[QUOTE=radiomonster;31087525]What with everyone emailing chet? I thought everyone loved robin.[/QUOTE] Robin never replies to my mails, even when I wish him happy birthday or holiday or something. Chet and Gabe always reply.

Chet Faliszek [email]chetf@valvesoftware.com[/email] to me show details 3:18 PM (5 hours ago) I am too handsome to be able to count that high.

I emailed Gabe about if he plays other Blizzard games like StarCraft last year. Never replied. D:
