ah see, HL1 put me of HL forever, so i didnt know what you ment with steam.

but for unlock weapons in FS, if this idiotic idea (that what i think about, lets not discuse it here) of jedi works out: a 2 edge LS
or instead of the standaard sniper rifle a bounty hunter sniper rifle (if possible by ABR)

I feel the same way about jedi. But we will get to enjoy the first few releases without them atleast. .

Steam is a content delivery, digital rights management and multiplayer system developed by the Valve Corporation. It is currently used to digitally distribute and manage games including Half-Life and Half-Life 2. Steam also replaces WON, the original authentication framework for Half-Life multiplayer games and a number of other now largely or entirely defunct titles.

ea are doing it as a way to increase online revenue and to try and show there system works. also cuts out the middle man so they get MORE profits. TBH the releases are only mods in there own rights and not addons to the game that you must have. IMO its cuting there own loss as it means not everyone will buy, cus you dont have too.

their system doesn't work that great, some of the people who bought SF online and downloaded it by EA Downloader, couldn't play the game

IMHO, Steam is much better than EA Downloader

I just had two new weapon unlocks waiting for me some days ago, after I had a long fight getting the new model in the editor, and was pretty infuriated from all the included headbanging, It was nice surprise and calmed me down a bit. I love the flashbangs, It´s hilarious to see the effects, when there is 2-3 guys trying to charge you from around the corner, with a sure kill in mind, and you manage to throw a flashbang in front of them, and just walk around the corner, and pick them out one by one, while they are all blinded and confused.

as for as i know the boosterpacks arent going to be in the stores. by this i mean the line saying : downloadeble only on the EA site, and no mention of a price for cd's

It is quite funny to play in the dark

yeah, and now with their boosterpacks, I just want to buy them in a store and together, cause not gonna buy those stuff online
