I've been thinking about water in the source engine, is that going to live up to our expectations? I've seen some discuss about it here on the forums and I think some of them seem to believe in it too much imo.
I don't really think source can handle water like some seem to think, like: "...and then I'll blow the whole watertank up an water will come out flushing away everything" or something like it :O
Isn't that something that needs to be done with particle effects? I don't believe water in HL2 is handeled by particles, so the example above is impossible (?)...so, that leads me to some questions:
FOR EXAMPLE:
The tanks in the E3 movie (the ones with the orange substance that boils in the place where Alyx and the professor is).. Will I be able to break them ? Probably not. Bulletproof glass, ay ?
What do you think about this? Will we be shooting containers with water in HL2 ? :sniper:
