Hi all, Well I just finished playing Half-Life one for the umpteenth time and lo and behold, Not a sign of the elevator bug!!! Did Valve fix it or is it something in my system that did it ? I have upgraded to 2 gigs of memory since I last played it but am still running a 2.4 ghz Pentium 4 proc, also am now running an ATI X1950 AGP video card and running Vista SP1. The whole game ran without a hitch and was still as enjoyable as the first times, I gues the HL series and mods will always be my favorites, even over some of the recent new games I have played. Regards, Rene >> Stay informed about: No Elevator Bug

I just played through a couple weeks ago and encountered it a couple times. I also played through Blue Shift again and encountered something completely new, for me anyway. When descending in the elevator with the two scientists at the beginning of the game, it seemed they hit an invisible floor or other constraint, and both of them would instantly become gibs. This failed my mission and I repeated the elevator sequence several times, each time at a certain point, they would both insta-gib. I had to restart the entire game to get past it. >> Stay informed about: No Elevator Bug

It appears that Valve, in their infinite wisdom employed the feature as an analogy on the continuing exploration of quantum mechanics. They're very subtle at the Valve people.

I'm not surprised. I have never experienced the elevator bug... I don't think it's that common...
