Id say its more likely thanks to Vivendi Universal Games for messing up. After all, their the ones who distribute the stuff. Anyways I dont really mind because by then Ill have my new comp and I can play it  .

Warhammer, is the company you work for do things like stopping the beta and looking for the robber? Or would They need to hire your company to do it?

well, for starters i too thought it was just for pbulicity, you know you would get alot more copies of the product off the shelf if you waited for the fat man in the red suit to roll around, but now that they are pushing it back into next year i think it's about time we found that hacker and beat him to death with a keyboard. And i think it's time for valve to update it's security.

Guys, read this:
| Quote: | Anonymous Leaker" Speaks 92 Comments
10/8/2003 10:09 PST | Half-Life 2 | by Fragmaster
I'm not sure if it's really a great idea to post this, but "Anonymous Leaker" -- the guy who is apparently responsible for releasing the slightly playable pre-Alphaish version of HL2 which is unfortunately in circulation -- has released a statement of sorts. Here's a snip:
To all those saying HL2 was delayed because of the hacking action, ill just remind you that what was leaked is what Valve has, nothing more and nothing less, so its pretty good to understand it wasnt finished yet.
Also I'd like to point out the E3 [demo] was one big fake by Valve. Ever tried to kill that soldier in physicstown ? Notice the door will still get kicked ? No scripted sequences ?
To everyone saying this is no Beta: I'd like to point out that THIS is what you wanted Valve to release on 9/30/03, theres no such thing as a much better release in Valves network!
To Valve: I suggest you stop lying to your customers about how much was stolen/compromised, or I'll have to release everything just to prove my point. And you know what you got, as I do.
Yikes. WARNING, BRIEF EDITORIALIZING AHEAD!
I'm not going to sit here and say I completely agree with Valve's policies, because I've criticized them in the past regarding how they handled the original release date delay announcement, among other things. And judging by what this guy says about the status of the game and professional game developer's analysis of what has leaked so far, it does seem pretty clear that the game isn't really that close to being done and hasn't even reached solid Beta status.
If this assessment is true, that would contradict a whole bunch of things Valve has said in the past, and make their behavior regarding the whole 9/30 release date drama even more questionable. But even so, that doesn't give "Anonymous Leaker" the right to help distribute stolen property. Leaking pre-release content like this hurts the fans, it hurts Valve, and it only serves to cause further delays in Half-Life 2's development.

Wow thats like announcing to an airport customs official that your a terrorist and you plan on blowing a major building up! (No offense intended) Man why would you say that here?! You DO realise that youve just basically admitted to recieving and using stolen property and you CAN be found through your IP, etc right?
