Q about physics-engine

[Katana]

excuse my bad english, im from sweden, i guess that explains all

i was thinking a bit about the physics-engine...

if a barrel comes falling right in your head.. will you lose HP?
and if you make a big round thing, and give it like.. stone-physics.. and put it in a slope, and it starts rolling.. and it hits you.. you lose HP?


if its that way.. it would be possible to make REALLY COOL assaultcourses :>

like some indiana jones-thing and stuff... damn.. cant wait until i get my fingers on the new hammer editor & hl2 :> :angel:

Yep, you can do that.

yuo'd proberly have to program it to make you lose HP, but it does] interact with the player model.

It will be like that in the game.

Judging from what info Valve has released, (everything in the game has a certain weight, including Gordon) I assume that would be in the game. Forgive meh if it has been stated before .

Aww, now I feel bad.

Like valve says, if it's not in there it's a design decision, not a technical limitation.

You won't have to program it anyway it's already built in the game. Like eraser said, every object have a weight, so if a 300kg rock falls on your head, it will do alot of dammages. It is also true if you throw a nade into a rock pile and one of the rocks goes into your face, it hurts

That's very good to hear. I was hoping it'd be that way. It was a payne in the arse to to program them in Max Payne 2.

sounds better than best :>

No you'll definitely lose HP, seen a movie of the techdemo map where a guy throws a barrel on himself.
Sorry, does this violate the policy?

Valve says that if something heavy enough lands on a headcrab, the headcrab goes squash. This also means that if something heavy enough lands on gordon, gordon goes squash, too :-D

 

[Brian Damage]

Great. Now all you guys have started my brain fizzing again...

Apparently it's ok to talk about the beta now... Just not link to pictures or release spoilers :/

In that case, having played the beta, yes, things falling on your head do hurt.
