But you can, its called repeated exposure. You're literally programming your brain to realise it isn't poisoned.

What are you even doing on this site?

Didn't Gabe say half life isn't being made til the technology is ready? He probably wants hl3 to change gaymen forever.

My only issue with my headset is the wire. Anyone got any tips on how to make this better? I keep getting tangled up in it while playing and end up having to re-position myself everytime.

Suspend the cable from the ceiling with a hook or something.

>autistic and anti-social
What the fuck does this even mean? How are games in general social outside chatroom garbage which VR has plenty of? VR is also a much better "party game", like DDR is, but that's obviously not what makes or breaks a platform and just the mere fact that you mentioned this at all shows how much of a normalfag tourist you are.

im done. its done. this time i legit had explosive diarrhea. but i blasted it all out so it should be the end of it

That's not always the case though. Red Faction Guerilla, Star Wars: Force Unleashed, and HL2 all had tech that was considered advanced at the time and all were considered relatively good games. I know it's not the tech that made them good but they designed the game around the tech and since the tech was so mechanically inclined into the game they were able to design something fun with it

HL is about introducing concepts to gaming as a whole
>HL1: story injected into the FPS formula, divergence from arena shooter pace
>HL2: great physics and believable character likeness
>HL3: true birth of VR
Kino

>Star Wars: Force Unleashed was considered good
Star Wars: TFU was panned on release what are you talking about.

weirdly enough this works both ways, because vr tech is literally just mashing a screen up against your eyes.

call me when they figured out how to tap into my conscious reality

I knew HL3 was going to be a VR game. It makes sense, Valve is in the business and there has yet to be a proper fully realized VR game.

>guess again fag
You were intentionally misusing the term waggle for attention?

Do you think AMD Navi graphics cards will be a good upgrade to be VR-Ready? I don't want to support the Nvidia Jew any longer if I can avoid it.

No it wasn't. It averaged 7/10 and was only "panned" for the bugs and shit it had. Everyone praised it for the tech, gameplay, and story.

>Balloon gun shows up

Aw hell yeah. Naruto VR when?

Buy the game to find out!

Absolutely nobody praised the story or the gameplay.

The game was universally panned for being a shallow copy of God Of War.

People only liked it because it was literally "God Of War: Star Wars".

It's not out yet. I'm definitely going to buy it though.

Why do people say this? I can't think of a single tech demo that wasn't fun as fuck.

It's the new valve controllers it can tell exactly where your fingers are.

The knuckles controller from Valve has finger tracking. To control the fingers, you literally move each finger around the controller, grab and release, etc. while it's strapped to your wrist. See

Sorry to burst your bubble, but not everyone who talks down VR just 'can't afford it'.

>What doesn't
Every VR game I own outside of Beat Saber I've only put about 3-4 hours into, because they either fucking suck ass or are (far more often) just short tech demos or "experiences". You don't have any complexity or depth in VR, its trash. The only VR exclusive game that isn't a faggy tech demo or short as fuck is Sunshine and Beat Saber. The only games with any depth are not VR exclusives games, Elite Dangerous, Subnautica and Tabletop Sim, with the latter controling like total trash and far better off played in desktop mode.

What do you think is missing? I find that VR games often have better mechanics than their traditional equivalent. Even when it is a lazy port like Subnautica, I would still take that over the regular version. I haven't played every genre in VR, but I can say with confidence that I would prefer all 1st person games to be VR.

Dicked up his dome

Motion sickness is a weird thing. It's all about the disconnect between what your inner ear is telling you and what your eyes and general spacial awareness are showing you and it isn't particularly consistent.
For example, I can happily sit on the deck of a ship in 5-10' swells and read a book as long as I can see the horizon in my peripheral vision to mentally position myself.
But in the back seat of a car where everything is closed in and the sense of movement is so detached from everything else I can only look at stationary things for a few minutes before having to quit.

HL3 is realistically dead. 2004 is now 15 years ago. Anything calling itself HL3 would be made by a completely different team than those who created HL2 or HL1.

Valve had a chance to keep the HL franchise alive and they didn't. Maybe someday Lord Gaben reveals the reason or maybe he doesn't.

>Maybe someday Lord Gaben reveals the reason or maybe he doesn't.
I thought he did years ago.
I forget the exact quote, but it was basically "with what we've learned shipping [loot box games], it wouldn't make much sense for us to go back and develop traditional single player games like half-life"

Which is another way of saying they don't want to waste money on HL3 when they could be finding more ways to keep riding the loot box gravy train.

>mass replier calling anyone else cancer

The reason is Valve's internal structure isn't conductive to making games, let alone something as ambition as a Half-Life 3.

>Buying a house before a crash

There are genuine experiences to be had for sure, but I get the feeling that nobody knows how to make a game that feels like it was made for VR as if it were made specifically like a video game. We keep getting sandbox games with fun gimmicks and some loose cut scenarios, but it feels like nobody wants to commit to a traditional budget.

It's 350 for the full setup.

You animate yourself.

Yeah, I used to be addicted to Pump It Up when I was a teenager and Beat Saber gives me that same addiction.

My only complaint is that it needs more songs actually lifted from DDR and PIU, get some good korean & japanese pop and rock in there. The only one I've seen so far is Beethoven Virus.

I don't get it from the headset directly, but seeing myself move around smoothly without actually feeling the motion seems to confuse my brain and make me a bit nauseous. It is so common that it's the reason why most of the games use a teleportation movement system by default, you can't just say it doesn't happen at all.

With that said, it's much better now than it was when I first started so I believe what people are saying about being able to train their brains to get used to the motion.

It can, but you still need additional hardware for the sensors to track like those little infrared pucks that you can strap to your feet or waist. I think that's how people do it.

Weak genes.

I am desperately hoping Valve develops some sort've open Lighthouse tracking, so Oculus/Vive/WMR users can use the Knuckle controller, too.

That's lewd. I think I'll wait a couple years, until there's more widespread body tracking. I picture like full body tracking and having like a toy you can fuck while humping in VR and I get all hot and bothered thinking about doing that with some of my erp pals.

Not him, but, I can enjoy lewd pictures online because, while it might have been drawn/taken by a man. The man is not actively there behind the picture while I masturbate to it, and I don't have to think about the artist as I fap.

Meanwhile when you fap to lewd girls/lolis/whatever on VRchat you know in the back of your mind that the model you are masturbating too right now is being controlled by a dude.

BASED

I think that's pretty likely, obviously the HTC thing is falling apart and they can do better, plus they've been working with WMR to integrate it better.
Hope they come up with a full body solution that isn't shitty vive trackers.

LFD3 apparently got cancelled recently because Source 2 still isn't finished yet and there was split between the team to to continue developing it alongside the game or switch to Unreal 4, of coarse in typical Valve fashion everyone just dropped the project once hard decisions had to be made and moved onto something easier. I don't think it's possible for them to finish anything ambitious with the horrid flat structure they currently have, they should at least switch to some kind of democratic approach where everyone votes on what projects to take on but have to see it through once voted on instead of the completely anarchic approach they currently have.

No, VR is like 3DTV and many other failed technologies that companies tried to to push hard. It's funny how VRfags are trying to equate VR with revolutionary technology that changed society, sorry to burst your bubble but you are not the early adopters of a revolutionary piece of tech that will change the world, you are the early adopters of another iteration of trash that companies have been trying to make a thing for decades.

Not sure where you got that impression, just stating how I usually feel about my experiences. Too little comes out to warrant putting it out of the bag I keep it in, and the ones that do come out are one and done deals. I can name maybe three must-try VR games, but they're all sandbox games with little effort put into presentation. Maybe it's different for things OTHER than games, but that's all I've ever used it for.

retarded yet not bad

The entire reason VR works is because it's (on paper) a 1:1 controller system for every individual component. What the hell else are you supposed to call them?

If it's a fully integrated system, minimizing it by calling it by one of its component parts is retarded. Stop pretending to be smart.

A new platform, maybe? It's not just controls but a new way of viewing games, specifically made or adapted for it.

lol

VR isn't growing in the sense that your post implies. The tech is slowly improving, but VR as a medium wont become a staple for the foreseeable future.

It's far too clunky, unintuitive, cumbersome, and expensive for the experience it provides. VR still needs a good 10-15 of continuous, vigorous improvements before it even has a chance of being seen as the gimmick it's been for the last 3 decades.

It doesn't help that AR trash is constantly on the tip of corporate tongues as the next breakout feature.

I don't think it'll ever be fully adopted by normalfags, the tech is just too cumbersome and no matter how many ridiculous commercials with posh niggers in penthouses Oculus puts out, will never be "cool."
However I do believe it's worth enough money that nobody will ever ignore it. As long as standalone VR bombs we're in a slow but comfy spot.

But it's growing as a medium too. Devs are still trying new things that might become the standard and there's growing interest in it by devs and gamers. Look to indie and Oculus funded games instead of AAA titles.

As long as there is a non VR meme version cool. If not I don’t give a fuck.

kys you have no power here

Right, and they'll need to keep trying; and improving for years before they even have a chance at anything. It's not the Devs alone though. It's the tech. It's not there yet. In fact it's not even close

VR will forever suffer from Sci-Fi Syndrome. It's like what happened to Back to the Future. We all expected crazy holograms, hoverboards and other crazy shit in the future. We got worldwide near-instant communication instead. And it still wasn't a contest.

For years Space was hyped. Then we found out we were in a space race and then we fucking made it to the Moon. Then StarWars showed us what the future could be, and all we got was the knowledge that Astronauts have to shit and piss into vacuum tubes.

Regardless of what VR is, most normies expect Ready Player One levels of immersion. Most Weebs expect .Hack or SAO levels of immersion. All we've gotten was clippy meme chatrooms and motion sickness jumpscares.

It'll never break the stigma, and it'll always be shit. The best they can do is try to make it as least obnoxious as possible.

It basically means the game isn't a tutorial for VR systems and shouldn't be the first game you play when you get a VR headset, you should already know how to use the controllers and stuff similarly to half-life assuming you understand basic FPS principles without popups telling you to left-mouse click to shoot the bad guys

You dumb asses realize that was the same fucking thing that happened with HD and 30+ frames per second. The only way to get over it is to expose your brain to it. Just like seeing naughty words repeated over and over again on a chan site you NIGGER.

Goddamn, we really need a comprehensive list of great PCVR games sorted by genre, there's so much chaff out there

oculus.com/rift/oculus-ready-pcs/

$800 is enough to play just about any of the current vr games at 90 fps, and the Rift is only $350.

How do they do the movement though? Is it still shitty teleporting? I mean you can walk around for a few feet but then you hit a wall IRL.

Unless they figure out a way to control movement with an analog stick and not induce motion sickness there will never be a VR game like Half-Life. Gordon moves around too much.

>shock animation
>unique crowned head mesh
>that classic wtf moment they have on their face before the deed
I like the details

Not him but you're dumb and obviously projecting. I've personally had tinder thots come over to my apartment and see the headset and ask to try. I usually throw them into something stupid like job sim or something.

I've actually once gotten a blowjob from one of them while wearing the headset watching vr porn.

I think you're overthinking things a whole lot. Yeah people will have their own impression on how a thing works but you'd have to be dedicated to hating things to think current VR has nothing going for it. That or having a bad first experience like phone headsets or demos that don't do VR well.

You really don't need much room. It's way, way over stated. A 1x2 meter space is more than enough.

You should be more concerned that Rift doesn't have a successor because they cancelled it and Constellation is probably going to be phased out.
As for Knuckles, trust in Valve.

Yeah I'm aware of the rift basically being old and busted but I snagged three sensors + the headset and controllers in basically mint condition on craigs list so that was really good.
When new advancements come out I'll probably spring for the new thing now that I got a taste of it

The knuckles do look really great. I don't console war but I've been pretty strongly on the side of the Rift because I like the controllers more. If a lot of games can incorporate the knuckles I might switch over come the next gen.

I'm trying to be optimistic about that. I don't trust their backpedaling about
>N-no it isn't cancel cancelled, just on hold for the Quest!
but I want to believe it. Either way nothing is really stopping me from just swapping over since I'd need to buy something new for a gen2 anyway.

The man fornicated with his cranium vertically.

>Unless they figure out a way to control movement with an analog stick and not induce motion sickness

you do know that free movement in VR games has been a thing for a while now, right?
some games will add in some vignetting when you move to reduce motion sickness, which actually does help.

if you still get motion sickness, then its your fault you are weak minded to handle it and VR just isnt for you.

This probably sounds retarded but hear me out here
Would it be possible to compound some sort of suit with VR that lets you feel what you're interacting with? As in, you feel like something's actually in your hands or when something bumps into your shoulder it's syncs to the suit and gives the sensation that it's colliding
Combining something like that with the treadmill is probably the closest we'll ever get to holodecks in our lifetime

It already exists, multiple consumer-ready projects in fact, it just has zero chance of widespread adoption and consequently being supported by any software aside from a few test cases and mods (there's a haptic vest mod for Skyrim.)
People barely want to put on the HMD, gloves or a suit are out of the question.

i have an htc vive and that looks bad lol

If you're looking for specifics, you need at least 1.5m x 2m of free space in order to do roomscale for the Vive.
If my small ass room is big enough to do this, then I'm sure you'll be fine. If not, move some stuff around. 1.5m x 2m isn't asking for much. The people who say you absolutely NEED 5m x 5m of available space in order to enjoy VR are memeing
Whether there's a way to exploit SteamVR to be able to play Roomscale under the minimum requirements, I don't know.

To summarize, if you don't have at least 1.5 m x 2 m, then you're probably better off getting a Rift instead.

Need to understand that stuff moving your character doesn't move you in real life, since people who are just getting VR aren't used to it and might fall forward since they're inner ear canals would try to adjust what they're seeing and you'd flop over

You should never play something like this as your first VR game.
Why? Because from the looks of it, this game does not have teleportation/comfortable locomotion. I'm not sure if you've ever played a VR game before, but moving in the game while standing still in real life is disorienting as fuck at first. So much so that it actually causes some people to fall down. Just take a look at this:
youtube.com/watch?v=l3V8zeSljUU

When it says you should have prior VR experience, it's not fucking around. You need to build a resistance to being able to move in the game while standing or you might feel nauseous.

They are never going to make a new Half-Life. This is the best we'll ever get.

What ideas? A fucking crowbar? None of this is new, all the shit has been done by other games in the past couple years.
And it still doesn't take away from the fact that Valve have been working on VR for ages now, stop being so fucking ignorant. It doesn't take their A-team to make Artifact or shitty Steam Sale interfaces.

Portal gun and VR movements should have been both in Half-Life 3. Nobody is impressed by them if they are used now.

Valve is clearly not interested in making real games.

Valve made the Lab, some of the one-off innovations in there actually went on to inspire clone games. They've still got it.
This has been their plan all along, to push VR. There's been some rocky business along the way and they had to rush it out but fortunately they're a little more innovative than an imaginationless brainlet like you.
Everything will be fine, especially with Oculus blowing both feet off.

Stop writing so much nonsense. I don't care about any of it until Valve announces a new game with a single player campaign. Cash shops to me are not real games.

People who think Valve is in VR to push for a Half-Life 3 are in serious denial. They're done making big games, especially single player games. Their business model now is cash shop driven games, and that means multiplayer deals. They can't even be bothered to finish and release Source 2 to the public, what makes you think they're interested in making HL3, that would take the entire company in a joint effort to pull?

And you won't get one, because Valves is done doing that. If it's not multiplayer and not monetizable, they're not making it. Half-Life is dead and it is NEVER coming back or being continued, it's time to move on.

At the very least stop pretending you know shit, fuck off or at least try to pay attention.

>And you won't get one, because Valves is done doing that.
Hence we go back to my first post in this chain of replies.
If you got a game release date for me, then you certainly know more than me.

If that's true why have they spent all this time and energy developing Lighthouse and Open VR and are still going full bore?
They're not making very good money off this, hardware sales aren't how you do it.
Valve wastes a ton of money on frivolous R&D for seemingly no further purpose than to push the medium and ensure a fairly open platform even if it means enabling their direct rivals who don't reciprocate.
They certainly have the money to throw around like Oculus and they could just grow fat off of managing the Steam store forever if they really wanted to be lazy.
There's a lot going on.

what are they going to do? make me a productive member of society? HAHAHAHA...wait a minute

Because they think it's the next big thing, they could use VR to push Steam as a platform and it has nothing to do with Half-Life. Just as they wanted Steamboxes and that initiative failed, they want more ways to push Steam, and to make hardware linked to Steam, or make perhaps VR software that will link developers to Steam.

>Steamboxes and that initiative failed

Amazingly I see this incorrect evaluation on Yea Forums every single day. You kids love nothing more than to say something failed without having any perception of the big picture

Holy shit. I'm impressed. Seems like the devs took the "Valve only makes a half life game when there is something innovative to show off" motto to heart.

or they could release a small multiplayer game to woo the new crowds instead of a single player games that requires way more effort, way bigger maps, way more animations and voice acting and so on, and to top it off Half-Life isn't even a huge name to the younger audiences anyway

Not until the knuckles controllers come out. I wonder if this game will be a pack-in.

>Half-Life isn't even a huge name to the younger audiences anyway
That's not Half-Life's fault. That's Valve's for not doing anything with the series.

this is literally what they have been doing for a long time, but you're in denial, this is the Dota 2 business model inherited from TF2's success with the cash shop, you think the whole company efforts are all working towards making something revolutionary so Half-Life 3 can happen? If that is so, could you explain why are they so no nonchalant with Source 2? Modding teams are moving to other engines, like the Natural Selection guys moving to Unity with Subnautica, the Garry Mod guys are also moving away from Source, could you explain how everything is funneling into HL3 however they couldn't care less about Source 2? Makes a lot of sense right

get rekt kid you seriously have no idea what's going on or how many people it takes to make a low effort digital card game

Who cares, the point is that they don't need to make a huge single player game to create a killer app, because Half-Life is not a huge name anymore after all the time has passed. If you look at the size of all HL2's maps, then you compare to the size of multiplayer maps, what takes more effort to create? Putting it shortly, a cash shop driven MP game can generate a lot of money with way less effort. Doubly so with a cosmetic cash shop that you leave to the community to create hats and whatever else.

So you think Valve not giving a shit about flaky modding groups and smalltime devs is a sign that they're not doing anything important?
Holy shit dude. This is VR, it's not like their little experiment with Steam Controllers. All the big players are moving in on this for a reason.

Can someone make a gigantic robot VR Game.
It would be awesome if you could create your robot, maybe customize what weapons you use for your arms. I know movement is kind of weird so maybe robots will take, slow steps.
I want to feel the gravity and weight of the robot. City on Fire, rain, thunder effects.

Different intros when after the loading screens, your robot can appear breaking through a building, emerging from, the water, drop from the sky. Would be cool for maybe a week

I don't want "apps" because that implies a shitty phone thing. It's programs in PC language.
>because Half-Life is not a huge name anymore after all the time has passed.
My point is, that's Valve's fault, not Half-Life's. People try to pass the blame onto Half-Life when it's Valve we should be shitting on.

killer app is 80s/90s PC slang and I am responsible for reintroducing it to this board

the term is important becaues it is what vr needs.

Big O simulator would in all honesty be fucking rad

Remind me why people support Valve again? They’re hardly a game developer anymore. They’re more focused on brain chips and their dead cashgrab card “game” they tried to use to fund it.

Valve wants a piece of the VR pie, which isn't that big compared to the console market. The thing with modders is that Valve is using an ancient engine by now, despite its constant changes, and they simply aren't caring about making something revolutionary when it comes to gaming. A modest engine can do something like Artifact fine, however HL3 would look dated as fuck with Source, and since they don't really give 2 fucks about Source 2, they don't care about Half-Life 3 either. Many people who worked on HL2 have left Valve, how do you explain that? They know the company isn't into making big projects like they once were and they left. I mean everything points to Valve not caring about HL3 anymore, but hey you guys can dream.

sure HL3 vr any day now lmfao

Here you go bro :)

please stop repeating this utterly asinine, made up nonsense what the fuck

some guy told you that valve was making a game on UNREAL ENGINE and YOU BELIEVED IT

HOW ARE PEOPLE HERE GETTING THIS DUMB/YOUNG

Half-Life is still a huge name to the people VR is being marketed to aka not zoomers.
Sure, Valve might still totally fuck it up but this is precisely the sort of situation you hold a trump card like HL3 for in the first place.

I know it's Valve's fault, my point is that THEY DON'T CARE. They can put something multiplayer, perhaps develop a battle royale from the ground up instead of simply making a mode for CSGO, or whatever else to make a killer app, something more popular with the masses today than HL3.

sent ;)

you don't get what a killer app is

you cannot create one by parroting what someone else has done...that is the exact opposite of what a killer app is

not sure why you think it is some kind of competition

thanks senpai

Are you retarded dude? Last time Valve chased a zoomer trend we got Artifact. Chasing another zoomer trend and locking it behind hardware their mommies won't buy for them isn't going to work. You're not a business genius by any stretch but you do sound like a zoomer yourself.

Fortnite just copied shit someone else did, and that was just what someone else did with DayZ or whatever. Apex was also taking things someone else already did.

Card games are nowhere as popular as MP shooters though

>and to top it off Half-Life isn't even a huge name to the younger audiences anyway
Half-Life has cemented its status in popular culture thanks to the HL3 CONFIRMED memes. Even if they never played the older games the memetic nature of constantly being exposed to people making jokes about it and talking about it means it has stayed culturally relevant LONG after people should have stopped caring about Half-Life.

If HL3 were to be announced the internet would explode. Memes have incredible power.

Multiplayer games have zero immersion. Ever since I started playing games in the early 90's I've always preferred single player games.

>it’s somehow unbelievable that some of Valve’s newer hires would want to use a functioning, modern engine from their competitor that they can port to console over an updated version of a dilipidated engine from twenty years ago that Valve continues to use
>it’s unbelievable that this might cause strife within the development team because the old guard and the higher ups would refuse to use anything but the half baked source 2
Very interesting, old man. Please scream at the children some more, maybe this time your geriatric mumbling will form some words.

That's fine, but the most profitable games are multiplayer ones, though. Gabe Newell has even said they're done making single player games after Portal 2, and in that game they tried to interject a cash shop in a coop game, and focused on turning it into a coop mode with the single player part being quite underwhelming compared to the co op puzzles.

>a game developer would use another developer's engine
>when they have their own engine
>not only that
>when they just spent years developing their own brand new engine

DUHHHHHHHH-UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

you are, honestly, too stupid to come to Yea Forums.

A developer that makes engines...Would use another developer's engine. Yes user. You're smart.

>with the single player part being quite underwhelming compared to the co op puzzles.

that was precisely nobodys evaluation of portal 2 and the game was a colossal hit

FREEMAN PLEASE FUCK MY SISTER

everyone was saying the real game was the coop portion, that isn't to say it was a bad game, just that the focus had shifted slightly

I don't really see the logic in using your crowbar to grab onto a bar when its pretty clear that you can reach it with your hand.

Now instead of having a direct handhold of the bar, you're clinging to this vertical piece of metal while gravity is pulling you down.

Vox Machinae exists.

>everyone was saying the real game was the coop portion,

Nobody said that. The gaming press absolutely loved the game and it is talked about with glowing praise. The co-op part was barely mentioned, ignored, and forgotten.

I don't understand the revisionist history people try to pull here. What you are saying simply isn't relevant to how the game was received.

Valve also never tried to "push" the cash shop in Portal 2. It was included and then never updated a single time because it obviously wasn't a draw.

Come to think of it, there are no engines specifically coded around VR performance, thus VR being ridiculously resource intensive even after considering the stereoscopic rendering and all that.
Source 2 doesn't need to exist if it doesn't have a niche, if everything it was supposed to be good at is done better by Unreal or Unity.

>there are no engines specifically coded around VR performance

An engine doesn't need to be specifically coded around VR performance; there isn't any specific adaptation to make

>you’re too stupid for Yea Forums but I don’t know anything that I’m talking about
L4D3 got canned back when Source 2 wasn’t even finished yet you subhuman orangutan. Their options were to either
>develop Source 2’s featureless, archaic, mess of an engine alongside their game
or
>admit defeat and use their competitors engine
Valve’s old guard and highers ups were too egotistical to even considering humbling themselves to the second option, therefore the project was canned.

Would certainly be funny for Valve to be calling it "underwhelming" when it was them who deliberately dumbed down the puzzles for the consoles' slow gamepad controls.

Yeah sure buddy

because its fucking cool brosef

Wrong, the real game was in the early demos shown to us. Before they dumbed down the puzzles for consoles.

i don't understand why you're speaking to me as if i don't know that you're simply just making up the shit you say

do you do this in real life? just go up to people and make shit up?

Is Yea Forums dying

You're making shit up massively. Portal 2's coop is often said to be one of the best co-op experiences in all gaming.

been dead since 2011-2012 or so

conversation quality dropped into the trash when phoneposting came around, and the people who come here are generally just so fucking stupid and detached from having any identity involving video games, theres no point in this being a place anymore

Adorable
Got any more stories user?

>subhuman euro monkey bashes his head against the keyboard yet again when English isn’t his first language and he can’t read or comprehend my words
The game was already “playable”, either they were going to have to continue using and simultaneously developing their in house software or take the assets they were using and rebuild the game in Unreal.
You must be eastern eurotrash if you don’t understand this. Why the hell would they start out in Unreal? Sounds to me like you like putting words in others mouths because it’s the only way your low T eurotrash gopnik body can feel anything that even resembles strength.

politics ruined Yea Forums and Yea Forums

Retardation aside, it goes through periods of hyperactivity and inactivity. It speeds up if there's gaming news. You should've seen the number of threads about the Nintendo Direct and Pokemon Direct

Not him, but this is literally the first time I heard this opinion.

ah yes can always rely on nintendo retards to endlessly blather over (same game again #25)

for real Yea Forums users we just kind of mentally exclude all nintendo stuff

I prefer threads lasting longer to the smash cancer where 80% of the threads are dominated by that cancerous fanbase and its retarded garbage.

browse for "best games co-op", you'll find Portal 2 in many of those lists

Proper use of vibrations is tactile feedback good enough for me.

>I only mature games for mature gamers such as myself!!
Kek. Only on euro hours Yea Forums.

hopefully

>browse for "best games co-op", you'll find Portal 2 in many of those lists

This is because Portal 2 is considered a best game and has co op. Not the other way around.

Anyway, back to the point, nobody talked or cared about the coop when it came out.

If you use firefox you can get rid of that shit from the config settings

The fact Valve doesn't care about developing Source 2 is pretty much evidence that HL3 is nowhere near their plans, if it will ever be again.
youtube.com/watch?v=EYDaIKIoOkw

They're really missing out, it was the best part of the game. Maybe the only good part of the game, too.

Listen, separate boards for each console is a bad idea. It would just encourage more shitposting from the boards raiding each other all the time. Or shitposters pretending to be from the other boards doing inside jobs. Plus containment boards never work. People still talk about Pokemon here. People still make threads that have generals on /vg/ here. Just filter and/or hide threads you don't like.

>webp is proprietary google cance

webp is an open format, that is the entire point of it. do you kids bother to understand anything, or do you just get mad at everything first?

But valve is still updating source 2 and shipped a massive update for it in December.
If they were developing source 2 for mobile games you'd be shitting on them for going the blizzard route. Pathetic.

>do you kids bother to understand anything, or do you just get mad at everything first?
You're on Yea Forums

Correction: it's comfy as fuck. Feels like you're traveling across long distances over the course of the game.

Yeah, but they don't talk about wishing to fuck a specific poke girl 24/7 like they do there.

>webp
doesn't sound very open.

I didn't say anything about separate boards for each console

Nintendo users simply operate in a "Nintendo" fashion and their post volume and activity is seperable from the rest of the board as is their post content. They are the use case for when you DO seperate out into another board
>insular faction within board
>constant threads 24/7 about tiny number of topics
>always the same people in the threads
>when something related to their tiny irrelevant sphere happens they take over the board with shitposting

I don't care about any game company or console but it is specifically Nintendo users that act this way and specifically Nintendo users that need to be segmented out. It's no different, whatsoever, from My Little Pony and Pokemon getting boards

yeah i have been saying this for years. hl2 was seen as something unique, a leap forward in gaming and the next half life will be too. Pushing technology is a part of the half life brand,

>valve should release a small multiplayer VR game
>that would attract more attention and be easier to do
>besides nobody really cares about Half-Life any more
It's fucking embarrassing to read this. You're speaking with confidence from a position of absolute ignorance.

Multiplayer VR sucks. NO ONE has really figured it out yet. There's been some degree of success with autistic sim games and with 'social experiences', but VR multiplayer game design is HARD and player bases SMALL, with enormous competition for their time. There has been a new FOTM multiplayer VR game that has come and gone almost literally monthly, for this entire 'first gen'.

NOTHING VALVE WILL EVER DO WILL ATTRACT MORE ATTENTION THAN THE FIRST HALF-LIFE 3 TRAILER (or surprise release or whatever else they do). This is sort of a tragedy, because Valve is doing absurdly awesome things RIGHT NOW that are getting almost totally ignored (eg. fucking Proton jesus christ).

Shouldn’t drones like you be busy buying cards off the steam marketplace?

Old Valve would do both.

I didn't but artifact so I'm not sure. Is not living in fantasy land being a drone now?

Spotted the no-fun fag ditching rides at theme-parks because of "muh nausea".

whats with all the hate for phoneposting? i've been on Yea Forums for years and years and occasionally browse and post on my phone and the only difference is that my phone corrects my grammar a bit. maybe years ago when OC was still a thing here it was an issue because phones can't create but now its all just reposted reaction images that were cooked up on reddit anyways. you can google them and post them off your phone too. if phones were stifling creation of OC then reddit would surely suffer worse but it doesnt so its a Yea Forums issue.

identity politics hurt Yea Forums, identity politics becoming the focus of actual politics madee it worse, /pol/ going mainstream ruined the site ten times worse than any previous influx of newfags, worse than project chanology times ten. /pol/ is ruining Yea Forums. moot going away ruined Yea Forums.

people posting stupid shit on their phones instead of their computers didnt affect Yea Forums at all. the quality of the people posting here had gotten worse and the things they talk about is just the same old "my side is best side" garbage shoehorned into every topic

>im a phoneposter, phoneposting isnt bad

fuck off phoneposter

Many VR games suck, not only multiplayer ones. You seem quite out of touch with what kids want to play, multiplayer games. You think the average zoomer gives 3 fucks about Half-Life? You think the HL fanbase is bigger than the modern gaming audiences they could attract by pandering to them? Valve is already catering to those by producing only multiplayer games and filling shit with cash shops for the modern audiences, seems like you're blissfully unaware of what they're already doing, though. Artifact may have flopped, but they're making bank with that multiplayer cash.

To me you sound like a desperate Half-Life fanboy clinging hard to delusions. but hey like I said, people can dream.

There's nothing inherently wrong with phoneposting, but it attracted millions of normies and underage retards that unironically killed some boards. Most notably /pol/, and I'd say Yea Forums as well.

I'd love to love this but I don't think any VR can capture the feel of the gunplay of the original.

t. born 96

>NOTHING VALVE WILL EVER DO...
Based. This is one of the reasons why I almost feel like supporting Epic Store with the exclusive deals, because then it might force Valve to make their own little exclusive something.

>Them windows
holy fuck, that's embarassing.

Technology, user. Technology.

>the only money in video games is zoomers
stop right there amigo. single-player games and more adult experiences are surging ahead stronger than ever and the market is showing that yes they want these things by the tens of millions of copies

also the idea that a HL game has to be single player is at best idiocy and at worst completely incapable of vision, of course a HL game would not be single player only anymore

Phoneposters treat their phone as a secondary throwaway device so their posts are more often than not worse than usual. You used to have to reset your modem at the very least to ban evade, now you can just whip out your phone and keep posting.

People who DO use their phone as their primary device can be just as bad because those are the kind of normalfags we don't want here who only arrived after they heard about gamergate, the fappening, and the election.

Then there's the fact that phoneposters are retards who save the thumbnails mobile Yea Forums shows to them (mobile Yea Forums doesn't show full images, it only shows medium sized previews for optimization) and then repost them, causing other unwitting retards to save and repost them which gets rid of the m suffix that was appended to them. So now the image quality of the board is actively decreasing.

This

dumbass, kids can't afford VR nor do they care about what it has to offer right now which is rough experimental shit

what is this for?

If it has to be a killer app, it has to grab a big portion of the market. There's a problem of making HL a game catering to its fanbase, which is dwindling as it gets older and the newer consumers don't know and don't care and needing a killer app.

What
Sales of single player games are slowing down while the development costs keep increasing though. The only exception to the former is Rockstar.

You sure you aren’t just making up some imaginary boogeyman user? I’m pretty sure shitty posters are going to be shitty posters regardless of what they use to post.
Calling people phoneposters is just a part of the identity politics that’s killing this website and the world in general.

Follow the reply chain.

no

Nice video. Valve is basically on its way out with its shitty engine. Guess they must be thanking their lucky stars for Steam.

The average IQ of a phoneposter is certainly lower than somebody connecting via Ethernet.

Then continue looking like an idiot.

Wasn't even me that said no, but reply chain doesn't show me anything anyway

Yes, almost every time I see image.jpg or a filename like yours the post is lower quality than a normal poster. And as a specific example of ban evasion when I used to go /tf2g/ there was one faggot who kept ban evading on their phone to dump trap porn in the thread and all their posts were image.jpg. Thankfully that actually made it easier to filter.

How about wifi?

Point taken. It's the topic of the thread but wasn't named. The game is Boneworks.

But what if I were to post without an image, like in this post?
I’m virtually indistinguishable from when I post on my computer now.
Blaming the method that people post with rather than the posters themselves is foolish.
>ban evasion via mobile carrier
A good majority of the IP addresses for mobile carriers have been range banned due to abuse.

Anyone else get that falling sensation in your stomach when you fall off something while in VR?
