It seems that Valve has implemented a real Half - Life 2 multiplayer ! And I don't mean Counter - Strike Source or Day of Defeat Source... On the right side you can see a screenshot of the current HL2 Retail ( no the leaked version ! ) showing the MP modus. In attemp to play the MP, the following attitudes have to be made. You also need the map ( download in this news ).

Edit: I also added a news to the Full SDK there.

So yeah, anyone wanting to make a hl2dm mod, the basic framework is already there, if you had any doubts about that...
I can confirm that this works, at least hosting a server and running around in that map does. No idea if you can connect to other servers, or if it's really an online mode as opposed to just running around a map in singleplayer.
Though when trying to download the map all I get is <!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->File not found blah blah etc<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd--> <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

They did it with HL1. Don't see why they wouldn't try with HL2.
Oh yea! I completely forgot about that, gah.

Yeah, they did, but have you ever tried playing? It's the buggiest POS I've ever had to go through.

yes I have played, yes there were problems (all spawning to the same spot being one of them)
BUT it was done, which answer the original question
