I was wondering if there was any mention of how graphic this game was. Like when I shoot say, the G-man will I see a bullet hole in his head? Will blood slowly start too drip from the hole? Can I peak inside and see his brain? Will the back of his head explode? Or is it the same ole shoot, you see blood, but theirs no damage done? Thx



Oh and btw they said this game was coming out the 30th of this month?? Sweet!?! Is that correct?
 
there are blood decals on models, blood splats and decals on walls and geometry, both entrance and exit wounds.

there is the blood spray on hit (although what the final graphic used looks like is unknown), there is gibbing.

as for the rest? nope, holes in models would have to either be animated to do so .. or deform dynamically (not gonna happen)



edit: as for coming out this month, no. so far the closest thing we have to anything official is a post on hl2fallout by Gabe saying HL2 will begin preloading in 7 days (the 17th of aug)
however that means absolutely nothing in relation to a release date.
 
That would be awesome but I dont think they are going to have that.

EDIT: DOH! :LOL:
 
No way soo sweet. Really hope it impresses me like I think it will. Thx quick reply.
 
After playing Doom3, I've found you don't need Soldier of Fortune-style damage modeling to create nasty wounds. The bullet wounds in D3 are absolute vicious-looking.
 
With all that we can do nowadays we cant add a hole in a model?? Thats wierd. Would really add too immersion. I just want a game that not only looks real ,but EVERYTHING reacts like it should. Just imagine shooting someones face and the whole back of their head explodes.

Yeah but how fun would it be to blow off an antlion limb and watch it squrm around slashing at everything in in vecinity.
 
I don't think anyone who hasn't played the beta can give you a spot-on answer on this, sorry. :(

Except from what we've seen in the videos, the latest video was pretty graphic with the zombie dismemberment and alot of bloodspraying when you shot combine soldiers with the shotgun.
 
I only played Doom3 for a little while but it was so dark (and I was too busy being scared) I missed the details. Plus after I would shoot something the skin would melt, then just poof.
 
Hmm didnt see that video can you give me a link? Hopefully its not just spray but actual detail. I mean look at the G-man if I were too shoot him I would expect some serious stuff too happen.

Well, I know you can dismember zombies (chop them in half, behead them, etc) and in a video I remember when Gordon hit the antlions with the shotgun, they would blow into pieces, and limbs would fly everywhere.

i don't remember ever seeing or hearing anything about exit wounds. i'm pretty sure its a simple shoot a part of the body, put a little bloody decal on the body. and if a wall or floor is close by, some blood will "spray" on the wall. nothing revolutionary
 
Well, thats pretty retarded too me. So this isnt anything different than old battlefield (but with way better graphics) in terms of detail too fighting. Battles are the biggest part of FPS dont know why they wouldnt put a lot of time into it. Hmm when I can finally shoot someone and it not just be some fake splatter with no sign of dmg except some shirt stain, ill be excited. Wonder how long it will take before they add a hole in someone.........
 
There has too be something revolutionary too the shooting. If not this is really dissapointing. I dont see any reason too buy it just too see pretty things. There..... has..... to.... be.... something!
Isnt this game supposed too be revolutionary? If not whats the hype all about? Personally I think DooM3s environments beat HL2s out, but the models on well G-man look better than DooM3 the others didnt look too impressive in the videos. DooM3 looks not too far off from Unreal3 or 4 or whichever and that game looks amazing. I really wanna be hyped bout this game cause I had too throw DooM3 out(was way too demonic for me) I just dont see anything too be hyped about.(Yes ive tried reading) Pls someone hype me up =).

Uh...dude, bullet decals don't make a game revolutionary. Truly emergent gameplay does. And with HL2's advanced physics and AI (which Doom3 can't even touch), that's exactly what we'll get it. Gameplay, plot, immersion. Not graphics and gimmicks.

But HL2 does still have incredible graphics :bounce:

I don't give a rats ass about the graphics, I'm here for the story. So what if you can't shoot through the skull? If you really need to see someones brains ooze out of their head you have a problem.

Its not that I "HAVE" too have brains flying all over the place. But if they said that when you shoot someone, you could see an entrance and exit wound, and the details would you be against it?
Another thing LOL this is a SHOOTING GAME how are you gonna tell me I have problems for wanting realism or brains when your playing a game where you kill people and they pretty much have brains flying everywhere?? I would just like instead of lets say DooM3 where thing decindigrate with LOADS of blood everywhere, I would like it too be more realistic.

Im not talking bout decals they already have that in game. Im talking about realistic reactions from weapons too go with the realistic environment and characters.

"And with HL2's advanced physics and AI (which Doom3 can't even touch), that's exactly what we'll get it."


Well, that answered my question for something that will make this game revolutionary. Thats all im looking for is what makes this game stand out from EVERYTHING else.
 
Ya sorry too offend you queers Ya thats right there is no period after queers. So go cry a river for me little baby. AWWWWWWW

i feel bad for him even saying something as incredibly stupid as that. you make my autistic 4 year old cousin look like albert einstein.
 
now, Hanky1, youve managed to anger about 3 people in this single thread. I suggest you apologize before these people pull some strings and get you banned.

I don't trust Newegg anymore. When I bought a new mobo and processor, they sent me a mobo with a scrambled BIOS.

So I went to CompUSA, bought the same thing for nearly the same price, and they installed it that day for free.

So how does the 2400 perform?
Click to expand...

you mean the comp?

Not bragging, just being honest here before i get flamed -

1.from pushing the power button to getting to my desktop takes 16 seconds total.

2. i load any map/level in any game, even doom3, once, and if i load it again, it doesnt load, its just ready, so basically i can blink and itll load.

3. absolute zero slowdown, ever, no matter how cpu tense an application or game is.

4. idk what else. its blazing fast basically. it uses the x800 xt to its full potential so graphics are nuts. i think the lowest fps ive gotten is 40, and thats in doom3 on ultra settings.

5....idk really, i guess i cant really use this comp to its full potential yet....soo check back with me when i get windows 64 and some 64 bit apps lol.

Alber Einstein has his last name mis-spelled twice according to my old English teacher. :)
