You're being pretty vague here. Go through the standards. Post your specs, verify cache integrity, defrag, restart steam.

It is downloaded.

I use a ati radeon hd 2400 graphics card, Amd athlon 2X Dual core Processor 4200+.

After the recent update where it removed the wait command it hasn't been working.

Try launching it from a shortcut too (after you've done what Dr. ROCKZO said).

#1. Stop bumping after just a few hours between posts.
#2. Reply to the suggested fixes, have you done all that rockzo says?
#3. Have you deleted/moved the game files and let steam re-download them? <- likely to succeed
#4. Have you tried the renaming the blob file and restarting steam?

Also, are you running any scripts. at all. Because even though it's unlikely if you've got something relying on 'wait' it your autoexec.cfg it may be prohibiting launch.

Okay i've tried everything and now i've reinstalled the game and it still won't run.
It ran fine before the sacrifice came out but now i click play, the process starts but nothing is displayed.
