The legend itself, Half-Life, has received a patch today. It has been 19 years since the game launched in 1998. But what did it add?
It didn't add much, but the patch did fix a few crashes. What this shows is that Valve has pride in their work, fixing a game that's nearly two decades old that already had a stellar reputation.
Unfortunately for conspiracy theorists, the number of bullet points in the patch notes equals five, not three. So no arrows pointing to Half-Life 3… Unless, of course, you take the number of years, 19, which is almost 20, take away the zero and you get 2.
x + 2 = 5.
x = 3
Half-Life 3 Confirmed!
Okay, maybe not. But here's the patch notes:
- Fixed crash when entering certain malformed strings into the game console.
- Fixed crash when loading a specially crafted malformed BSP file.
- Fixed malformed SAV files allowing arbitrary files to be written into the game folder.
- Fixed a crash when quickly changing weapons that are consumable.
- Fixed crash when setting custom decals.
