question about hl2 vehicles.

[geekusa]

I was wondering if anyone knows if the vehicles in hl2 like the buggy or hovercraft if they are indestructible, can they blow up or become obsolete if damaged enough?

 

[Geno]

there's been a thread, no one knows

They are indestructable.

If you want to make a mod, apparently you can mod it so that vehicles receive damage. Apparently it's also possible for the models to deform. I imagine this would be especially good for something like HL Rally.

[Korgoth]

Because it would suck to lose your buggy. And it looks like you need the buggy in some parts.

wtf is a muntant?

It's a manhunt gone wrong.

 

[Korgoth]

[Geno]

i don't see why you'd ever NEED a buggy... i'd really like to see it get blown up...

 

[Mechagodzilla]

What happens if it falls off a cliff though?

Valve's goal is to entertain the player, not beat him. Vehicles in games are entertaining, but most in-game vehicles are incredibly fragile and thus are not much fun (think Far Cry, where a merc with a pistol could take out a Hummer in less than a minute). Valve is making sure you don't lose your really cool vehicle as soon as you get it in order to maximize the entertainment value.

no defenetely not, their goal is to make so much money that they can buy some nice cars themself !

Rafa !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Its Back ! Rafa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are the vehicles single-seated or for more than one person?

Well, we've only seen two vehicles so far, but valve said that multiple NPCs or multiple players in mp can be in a vehicle at one time.

 

[Roland Deschain]

We'll the vehicles are indestructible, but you still get demaged when you are in the vehicle, so don't think you can just sit in that buggy with all those combine soldiers shooting (while you make faces at them).

 

[McFly]

its like Halo.

 

[GuNzABlaZiN]

its like Halo.

Yeah, and vehicles work nicely in Halo so they will work in HL2.

Sounds good to me!

 

[McFly]

I can just imagine me drving in the buggy, tailwhipping Barney, and watching him die a horrible death without much force. IE Halo's Teamwork.

 

[Roland Deschain]

I actually can't wait to see how the vehicle physics works. I was kinda dissapointed that in FarCry that when you run down the mercs they never bounced of the car or your windshield.

 

[iamaelephant]

....apparently you can mod it....

:angry::sniper:

 

[Prince of China]

So...the tires are indestructable eh?
Good job Valve.

Oh hey! I can drive it off a cliff and still live!

 

[Yak_Fighter]

Yeah, it's really too bad that Valve isn't recreating GTA:VC.

Wow a valve spokesperson. Can you tell me if Valve will be including onstar and XM satellite radio in the vehicles? What about airbags? Will they have 8-way power seats and dual climate control to maximize the entertainment factor? If I wanted to purchase on of these vehicles in real life, would I qualify for zero percent APR? Can you please elaborate further? I look forward to your official valve press release regarding my inquiries.
