If u could only play one of these for hl2 , what would it be MP (with the mods ex:cs, tfc...) or the entire SP game?
 
SP, cuz MP will go to shit soon, trust me.

i disagree look at hl1 if the mp wasnt good(thanx to cs) the game would be forgotten by now , i think a good mp is what keeps a game alive for many years.
 
I would like to play SP because I love playing with myself, but Im gonna go with MP... theres just way much more longevity.
 
MP, more longevity.. though it'd suck not to have any SP ;(
 
Singleplayer because nothing and i mean nothing has come close to the emotion i felt the first time playing Half-Life 1. To be able to relive that feeling would be amazing.
 
Definitely multiplayer... I never even finished Half-Life's singleplayer, but I play the mods to this day.
 
but i dont think the mod community would have flourished the way it did if they werent inspired by such a good game. if HL was shit, theres no way we would have the mods we do today. sp and mp are connected.
 
That doesn't really apply to this one because there's already a mod community for it...

exactly
because when Hl1 came out, its actual online component was brushed off as being another bland attempt. (was the only reason that HL1 didnt get 10/10 instead of 9.9/10 ratings)

however it seems as though this time through the MP has been approached with the correct amount of focus... hopefuly.

sad sad man... try the real world.

side note: HL1 did rock, but not that much
 
SP, as much as I want MP too.. SP looks so very engaging

agreed. simply put.. i'd go insane not knowing what happened to Gordon and the G-man and so on..

for longevity reasons MP.. but really like its already been mentioned above, without the SP experience and the inspiration it gave to fans, there would be no real interest in MP and the mod community wouldn't be what it has become to this day.

What about singleplayer mods?

I hope singleplayer mods become popular. For some reason, multiplayer (mods and games) seem hollow to me. Singleplayer is what is important to me.
 
Multiplayer, hl2 would be good but once its done its done. I wanna get my ass kicked on the multiplayer mods :D

umm...a good multiplayer is what keeps a game alive. You think theres alot of people playing HL because they all play the single player over and over and over and over... no, it's because of the multiplayer.
 
I'd definitely go with the singleplayer - it looks even more amazing this time around and I've always prefered singleplayer games.

Granted the multiplayer is what keeps the game alive (and I play alot of multiplayer) - but only because there's no singleplayer left.

Try making a game with an infinitely long singleplayer that never gets repetative and somehow remains fresh - see if that needs a multiplayer component. ;)

hahahahahahahahahhaahhaha playing with urself :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
 
Slow...


Ahem! I would play single player because after this long I might go insane not knowing the story to HL2... :rolling:
 
I say Single player. The story was engaging in the original HL. I still play HL SP. I played most of the MP mods(CS, DOD, Underworld etc. hell I even played that damn ricochet thing), but the one that I keep going back to is the SP game. I would be extremely upset if there was either no MP, or SP included in the game.
 
SP all the way for me. A polished adventure with a story (even a cheesey one) is way better than a chaotic mess of 733t dudes TKing on a choppy server.

Bump*bbaaasd
 
Single player of course. SINGLE PLAYER!!!

No contest.
 
Half-Life is party the most popular game ever because of its multiplayer, yet I am a fanboy for the single player, not the Multiplayer, even though I own at HLDM.
 
MP definately. I dont really care much for stories. Although I will enjoy the SP game because I like shooting stuff.

Oh, and Mr-Fusion, you need to step outside for a while....
 
I choose MP, but i'll still play the SP thru co-op.
 
i dunno, this was a tough question. I decided to go with multiplayer + mods. In the end its the multiplayer that keeps a game alive. single player, can get old after you've played it about the 3rd time through. Multiplayer on the other hand, is what I usually turn to after the singleplayer. multiplayer takes a lot longer to get 'old'.

but i really do love singeplayer, so thank god were not left with this decision in reality:)
 
Singleplayer player for me. If I had to choose either fighting AI or fighting against "I ownz joo!" 12 year olds, I would have to say singleplayer...
 
Most likely SP for me too. WhiteBoy proves a valid point :)
 
I wouldn't be able to live with out the single player. But I do want to play hl2dm. HLDM is the game me and my friends play most at lans. I still play it online sometimes too but I find it too easy.
 
Definitely single-player. It's what makes a game, well, a game.
 
Definatly SP. It incorperates ALL the things that HL2 is known for! How could you say MP?!

And I will be able to play it over and over and over, so many things to do! Different ways to beat it! Ahhh!!
