Little gaming preferences that you would like to see in HL2

[Dr.breen]

I know this is not in HL's style but..........Ya know the way Halo's chapters are set out?(stay with me)

I mean once you have done a chapter you can easily go back and play again and next to the said chapter has boxes that are ticked to indicate whether you have done the level on easy normal or hard.

On top of that it could have numerous boxes to tick for challenges in addition to the Difficulty boxes, example where by you are given just the Grav gun for the whole level and thats it, and there could be others like no health packs or NO grav gun etc

People set these tasks for themselves anyway once they've completed them, so why not have the game set them and reward you for completing them? (Concept art, hidden movie etc)



You get what I mean though, even something as small as this could increase the replayability significiently.



But like I said it's not in HL's style...............OMG Listen to me!! I haven't even played the bloddy thing and I'm already trying to improve it!

Forgive me.

actually...you can go back to the different levels and play it again (if the game auto saves at the start of the section or level.)

Right now..the hype is slowly building for this game...and seeing that people already have it is also building the hype. I feel like all this excitement is swirling around me..about to go inside of me once the game is released and I have my CE. I personally can't wait too much longer. Thank god the game is released in about 3 days.

You dont need to get your flame shield on, i agree with you, i made a recently suggesting this thread
And i think that they should do this, it gives the game a lot of replayability when you can just jump to your favorite chapter like Halo and MP2


MODDERS TAKE NOTE!

 

[Mr-Fusion]

It's not Valves style to add "arcade-like" replaybility options into the single player. Modders though. If there's enough demand for this, and i think there'll be virtually 0, someone can mod it.

 

[Dr.breen]

That wasn't me putting my flame shield on Lincoln, that was the other side of my brain hearing me talk blasphemy about Valve and spring to life and defend them!

One side of my brain is a Religious Valve fundermentalist that believes Valve leaked the game for our sins, and that we should be eternally grateful for and give up our money and soul to.

where as the other side thinks the game will be amazing and will change the face of Videogames forever, but it's just a game.

***WHAT THE F*CK DID YOU SAY!!?***JUST A GAME?***HOW DARE YOU TAKE THE VALVE NAME IN VAIN!? YOUR MOTHER SUCKS COCKS IN HELL!*


It's a bit like torretts syndrome. But I get by.

 

[aeroripper]

Didn't far cry do this?

I really hope valve doesn't do this and keeps it like it was in HL1

 

[Jesus Lincoln]

You guys are right that valve shouldnt do this, but i want a modder to

 

[Dr.breen]

I suppose it still works fine, we can pick and choose any level we want anyway, not to mention we can manual save where ever we choose so, yeah it's fine I suppose
