[Dalamari]

Which would you rather have a MPlayer beta for?

Half-Life 2 Death Match!

How is this a "Mega Beta Battle"? HL2 will annihilate CS:S.

No contest at all.

Definately HL2. The wow factor of the new dust has worn of in CS:S, and now it's simply the same old game, with the same old map, same old weapons just way better graphics and eye-candy physics. This is of course, assuming HL2 will have it's own multiplayer.

Should'nt you of posted this in General Gameing? Or in the CSS forum.. or in the HL2 forum...as..its..about all 3...

IM SO CONFUZED.

 

[Loke]

Half-Life 2 all the way!!

CS is so boooooring

at least HL2 would offer something new and fresh in the MP department i suppose.

Ok, imagine that you had not played CS:S yet, and they let the people choose which one to release, I know that CS:S is boring, but you didn't think that before they released the beta.

well i've disliked CS for a long time now. kinda knew CS:S was gonna be the same (but of course had my fingers crossed that it would somehow recapture the addictiveness again). oh well..

i'd probably still choose HL2, because it's HL2!

CS:S is nothing without a multiplayer, and HL2 is nothing without a single player, so it's hard to compare the two.

For a multiplayer, CS Source definately, but also respecting the fact HL2 was built for an awesome single player experience.

Moved to general gaming for the time being, as it is about games but not solely about either CS : Source or Hl2

Oh yeah, and I think I would prefer CS : Source, because it gives mea taste of things to come (I.e the engine) but without spoiling anything for me Basically, although I ahve had the joy of playing in Source, I still have not yet touched Hl2.

 

[Dalamari]

Seems like alot of you are talking about HL2 single player, I am talking a Mplayer beta for either game.

 

[ComradeBadger]

HL2DM.

I want my Source-rendered tau-jumping and Shottying now!

I hate DM multiplayer...TDm sometimes but DM is not my thing. Therefore i voted CS:S, wich i have yet to play.

No CS smacktard crap and no HL2 DM bs, I want the HL2 multiplayer that I desribed in that thread discussing HL2 mp...I will find my decription but it pwns the shizzle out of CS:S and HL2DM.

I think they need somthing closely related to the single player...like this!:
2 teams, 1 is C17 resistance the other is Combine. The combine get all the cool vehicles and striders and scanners and everything, they could even have a commander...but C17 have experimental weapons like the grav gun, and other black messa weapons(maybe if it fits the story) but there main strength would be guerrilla warfare, there ability to sneakup on an enemy and quickly get out throuhg maybe a secret route.

The game would be objective based, none of the nonsensical kill fest BS. Some example: C17 has to blow up a communications building of the combine, start point of the attack could be random but there are lots of scanners around the city.
Another one, the Combine have just tracked down the building a leader of the C17 resistance is in and they have take him out. But the C17 got a tip off of the attack and have had time to prepare traps and excape routes.

I personally like Opposing Force's take on TDM.. lot's of teams


Also means you can have one-man-armies

 

[Asuka]
