well with all the hype that been said over halflife2 do you think it could suck when it comes out and we got all hyped up for nothing?
 
Didn't you just flame the other thread for a "stupid topic?" :|
 
Just playing with the engine makes it fun enough, and therefore unable to suck :)
 
I don't think it'll suck as much as you :rolleyes: </flame>

I doubt it, the VALVe guy's have some brains on those shoulders.

He does this all the time. Acts like such a dumbass, as soon as he sees a thread that is stupid/lame he thinks he has the right to start his own stupid thread.

EDIT: Looking at Acme's previous posts right now and I am wondering why hasn't he been banned yet? Almost every other posts of his was him trying to troll.
 
Every game has a chanc of failing, it is just a matter of how big of a chance. And with all the hype and high expectations, I think HL2 has an immense chance of failing.
 
I highly doubt it will 'suck', they started HL from scratch because it wasn't very good so they have experience with how to avoid making a bad game. If HL2 at any point was deemed to be crap, I would expect they would do the same as what they did with HL.

I dunno if they used the same process to create HL2 (the cabal thingy :S) but if they did then I doubt we will be playing a shit game after installation.

It could, but do you really think 6 years worth of developing could result in a bad game?

Well Deus ex 2 was released after 4 years and it did suck and then Ion storm was one helluva developer, so there is a 50% chance of every game to suck. This applies to halo 2, doom 3 and stalker too as much as it does to HL2.

for Xbox and Playstation owners, maybe,.. for PC,, hell NO,
So the story is going to suck on the Xbox? I don't think that will be much different, same with the gameplay is will be almost the same.

Halo for the pc sucked very much in comparison to the xbox version, even though halo's story is very good for a FPS. So he's probably talking about it as a bad port.

4 letters, one word. Mods

I assume you haven't played half-life for the playstation 2?

I'm talking about player made mods, not official ones released by VALVe. With mods it can make the game expand A LOT. Especially with the ability to make your own mods and content.

You have a nasty cough there, whatcha smokin'?
 
Max Payne was awesome.
Max Payne 2 was awesomer.

Half-Life was awesome.
Half-Life 2 will be awesomer.
(I hope)
 
Mods = :x

People won't mod HL2 if it sucks.

It is really hard to say what HL2 will do. They don't have much of a track record besides Half-Life. There is a tendency to believe that HL2 will be good because Half-Life was so good. But if you look at other game developers, most of them go through sophmore slumps. Let's hope Valve breaks that trend.

On the other hand, if you look at Doom 3, it's all but certain that it will receive a 9.0/9.2 at gamespot because that is what every other ID games has gotten. They have released enough games to predict what Doom 3 will score.

Now that I think about it, it would be much safer to be a Doom 3 fanboy than to be a Half-Life 2 fanboy. :|

[Edit]: Shuzer, you contradicted me. You shall feel my wraith... :p

Still that doesn't make the ps2 version of half-life bad. My friend has it and it was rather fun with slightly upped graphics than the pc version (obviously because it was released later). Anyway, the mod community is mainly for the longetivity - so a game with SP only can be good on a console.
 
No, they've done too much to suck, they're beyond that point now, even if the game ONLY consisted of what we've seen in the media.
Surprised I even took u seriously myself.
 
I can honestly say the game wont suck solely based on the videos, I mean if the game is ONLY as good as what the videos show and nothing more it will still be an awesome game, but think of how much more there is to see and do.

Half-life 2 much much awesomer (you bet)

Max payne 2 came out just 2 years later on the same engine and it was awesomer - so imagine HL2 with a totally new engine after 6 years and a new gameplay mechanic (physics).

Hey i'm sure Duke Nukem Forever will be good....

I am not worried about HL2 sucking, it is too unlikely for words because of the quality of the team working on it and the effort that has been placed into this thing.

On top of that like someone ejaculated...mods.

ewwwwww, what's all this talk of ejaculation?

I think this thread is rather pointless, because it'll eventually lead to flaming, one way or another.
 
ejaculated means to utter impulsively, it's just me using strange English because i wanted people to like me ;(
 
Will HL2 suck.... what a stupid stupid question.


Of coruse it will. :p
