totally unrelated but I think an extremely gory medieval mod would be so awesome.
To swing you sword you hold the mouse button and then move the mouse in the direction to swing, the sword is then 'manipulated' and moves as a world object.
A mace is done similar, but think of the...
Maybe everyone is wasting ammo becuase they don't yet know you can't take it down with guns. In the 2004 vid they put like... 12 rockets into one and it remains walking.. Maybe you need to trip them or something.. :P
The strider is part of the Combie Armada. Of course it will work with them.
Truth be told, no movies ever show a strider dying, so it probably takes alot of work to bring one down.
That was nearly the most annoying thing I have ever read just becuase of all the teh using. I can take one or two a paragraph, but damn... not the whole post.
edit: I put the instead of teh.. heh.
using that thirdperson in the console proves nothing (as if it ever did)... IIRC, you are the multiplayer model you select. I remeber I was screwing around in OP4 once, changed the multimodel to gman, and went into thirdperson and seen myself as the G-man...
I love the new concept and can't wait to find out more about the story.
Just the whole opressed feeling of the game is great. The Dune Buggy and hoverboat just look so... slapped together grunge feel. I love it all.
probably both. Didn't see any longjumping in the vid's though, doubt they would take it out though..
On the sprint, I actually think its a not bad idea, I suppose. Depends on how long you can go at it for... one would think good for outdoor areas when you have to get back to the buggy after...
I expect to see tents lined out outside games stores...
Then I'll wake up and drive to the store, pick up the game, drive home and just drool for a month.
The moral of the story? Probably not going to be too hard in some places to get it on the first day (I Hope)
That would be pretty neat if it were some massive city / world, and you selected either combine or resistence or something, and had to defend key parts of the city. The resistence had to move carefully and use gurellia tactics while the combie would have striders and stuff.
well, I do give Valve some credit... they actually made the robots look cool.
Unlike this Carmageddon you run over dinosaurs. Thats actually kind of funny to think about. hehehe.
Not funny at all..
edit: The video card is that rectangle that the moniter is sitting on. The one where the tank of something (I think it says liquid nitrogen) goes into...
"retards like you are the people i wish i could see say that face to face so i could slap some level of IQ into you."
Whoa. Could someone send that though the decrypter and tell me the results? :P
That would be cool indeed.
I emailed them about it awhile ago, and they said coding an RTS (with AI) would actually be pretty simple. I wouldn't be surprised to see some MODS do it.
