Beat it

Beat it (POSSIBLE SPOILERS)

I'm done...

Pretty short, but fun... Now I'll just have to give it a run-through with commentary. Episode 2 looks pretty intense.

EDIT:

This thread may contain spoilers. It was not originally intended to, but because this thread is referencing the fact that some have already beat the game, we're most likely going to talk a little bit about some things that you may not want to read if you have not completed episode 1.

 

[loofy]

Didn't the game come out 3 hours ago?

 

[Barney_Calhoun]

I beat it in 2 hours 30 mins. Pretty short, but DAMN was that fun.

And I can't believe [SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS] in ep2 :|

 

[DEATHMASTER]

Says who, cuz I dont believe you.

 

[Barney_Calhoun]

Believe me about what?

 

[Asus]

It was awesome. I liked the fights they put you through. Gave me a different feel than fighting in HL2.

 

[MaStA]

yeh right!!! Alyz dies. I think not

 

[bryanf445]

*snip*

funny. :|

 

[Barney_Calhoun]

You think I'm joking? Watch the preview at the end of Episode 1.

 

[bryanf445]

regardless of you joking, your not supposed to post spoilers. That could get you into some trouble

 

[MaStA]

ppl have completed it alrdyy. Tmr their will probably be a countdown posted for episode 2 hehe

 

[Barney_Calhoun]

The name of the thread is "Beat it". That kind of implies that it concerns the end of the game.

 

[The Brick]

6 hrs of gameplay my ass. Took me 3:40 and I wasn't in a hurry.

EDIT: 3:30 that is, decrypting files took about 10 minutes.

where does it say anything about posting any type of spoils? You could have atleast warned us.

The thread has nothing to do with spoils

 

[Barney_Calhoun]

This thread is about completing the game. If you have completed the game, then it would not be a 'spoiler'.

 

[MaStA]

No, no where does it explain that this thread is for spoilers hence u better hope you were just joking bout alyx dying

 

[Barney_Calhoun]

Pfft. Fine, I'll delete it.

 

[bryanf445]

Pfft. Fine, I'll delete it.

thanks, kinda late but w/e

how about u spend less time complaining about him giving out info and more time playing the game so we can then discuss how it clearly seems like that what he was saying is true.

ummm I like to actually take my time with it and not beat it in one sitting. And Im not the only person on here that hasnt beaten it yet, actually I bet the majority havent beaten it yet so to most of the viewers of the thread that spoil is news to them

 

[The Brick]

Shouldn't this thread be in singleplayer mythology if it's about the Ep2 preview?

 

[MaStA]

coz I cant play it yet im still updating. So were u just joking about alyx dying?

 

[The Brick]

It's a speculation.

 

[Barney_Calhoun]

Let's just say it heavily hints at it in the preview.

 

[baron insig]

hewhe yay i just completed, imho the ending was a bit short, and inevitable. and as i was on te train i kept thinkin, it sgotta go wrong, it has to, this is too short

all im gunna say is gabe must suck at beating his own game if it took him six hours

 

[baron insig]

why can ti get the preview video to play???

 

[MaStA]

so if ur gonna give spoilers please start a spoiler thread and warn ppl before posting. Its unfair on those who either aint completed it or ant played it yet

 

[Barney_Calhoun]

If the preview doesn't play at the end, you can find it in your /episodic content/media folder in your steam directory.

 

[baron insig]

thankyou

EDIT:

Wow thats a new idea, forests!1 me want now!!

 

[bodhi]

its very good and extremely polished, moreso then HL2 was, there seems to be so much more detail.

i beat it in pretty much 3 hours dead but it was definately worth it. I dont think im even disapointed that it wasnt longer because it was so consistantly good throughout. Looking forward to episode 2.

btw, for everyone who's seen EP2 teaser... reminds me of Star Wars in parts.
Or is it just me??

teh teaser makes it seem more like a movie

 

[RaBiD WeAzEL]

Hmmm... The teaser brings up some interesting questions about Alyx, but... What I'm more concerned about are those three legged critters.

There was one on a video screen in Episode 1 (If I remember correctly; I should, considering it was only a few hours ago), and therefore, the model should exist within the game's files... Anyone know if there's a way to spawn the critter to get a sneak peak.

npc_create npc_?????

Zombine now works.

By the way... Did anyone else find this game to be pure beauty... I took some screenshots, and it hardly matters where I took them. It just looks so good.

 

[The Brick]

I took 50 screenshots. 1 of Alyx. 1 from the train at the end. 48 of the core. That thing was sooo pretty.
