Messing around with portals

[Paulaner]

Am I the only insane person that's having a lot of fun just messing around with portals, firing them in the strangest positions and looking through them? This is highly addictive...

Agreed. There's great novelty value in looking through a portal at yourself for some reason! The fact that you can also fall from great heights without problems is fun. One of the acheivements is to fall from 3,000 feet or something (or was it 30,000?!)

 

[Qhartb]

30,000.

 

[spunge]

well it's definately over 9000

 

[Acepilotf14]

How long do you need to infini-fall to get the 30k acheivment?

 

[theholygod]

this is probably a really stupid question, but in portal, does falling necessarily mean going down?

 

[nappymonster]

When you have to fall 30,000 feet, do you just set two portals and leave it on a loop?

 

[Acepilotf14]

yup. You fall for infinity.

 

[spunge]

no, it has to be without going through portals i think.

 

[Sedako]

To get the "Terminal Velocity" achievement, you need to create an infinite loop of portals and stay in it for 6-7 minutes.

no, it has to be without going through portals i think.

Yeah...

It takes less than 7 minutes.
