A Call for Communication (Half-Life) (HL-CFC)
Message to Valve
Since December 25, 2011
United States 
The lack of communication between Valve and the Half-Life community has been a frustrating experience. While continued support for current and future products is greatly appreciated, fans of the Half-Life series have waited years for a word on when the franchise will return.
So, Instead of focusing efforts in a negative and disrespectful way, we have decided to gain Valve's attention by delivering a basic message:
Your oldest and longest running fanbase would like better communication.
Waiting patiently for over four years can be challenging as a fan, especially when E3 comes and goes without any sign of the Half-Life series and its continuation. Valve had stated that information was scheduled to be released towards the end of 2008, and we believe that if they have chosen to change those plans, fans should be acknowledged, regardless of developmental plans for the next Half-Life project.
The entire trilogy of episodes was scheduled to be completed and released by 2007, and if Valve have decided to do other things for the time being, that is fine; all that we ask for is a basic response on the matter, and to let fans know whether or not the current story arc is scheduled to conclude at another point in time.
In addition: This message is in no way, shape or form attempting to rush the development of the Half-Life series; in fact, most members agree that Valve should take the time needed to deliver a complete and polished product.
If you agree with the above message and statements, please join this group and share your support constructively.
Hopefully such attention will be recognized by Valve, and the community's voice will be heard.

WE AS APART OF THIS GROUP WILL REFUSE TO PURCHASE ANY GAMES FROM STEAM AND ALSO ANY GAMES PRODUCED BY VALVE UNTIL:
a) HALF LIFE 3 IS RELEASED
b) 'REAL' INFORMATION ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF HALF LIFE 3 IS GIVEN FROM VALVE
This is the only way we're going to get any 'real' progress on Half life 3 until we do something that will actually affect Valve. They won't understand meager participation on playing their game we have to show them that we require them to fulfil the promise they made, to give us Half Life 3.
(They did promise quicker releases through 'episodic' games and that promise is well and truly broken).
They are working on it. Unlike half life 2, they work on it in secrecy, to prevent dissapointment/ leaking and official rumours. They say: Have patience. It's done when it's done. WHEN it's done, it'll be a good game, instead of half-baked games such as the half life 2 episodes.
Both DotA 2 and CS:GO were announced months/years after being worked on. Giving a more solidview on the final product. Valve is one of the few game developers who keep moving on. New features etc. For this, you need testing.
Most of the previous games and tf2's mannco store were tests, in order to create better products. With enough feedback on those tests, they can create proper sequels for the games we all enjoy.
