HL2 Gameplay Video

[AsylumX]

I just made a mess...oops:

I just finished watching the full 25 minutes and it's amazing. I watched the Doom 3 gameplay vid and trailer, and for the people that say Doom 3 looks and feels better? :eek: ARE YOU INSANE? lol

Just watching the movie I was completely in awe, not just the graphics...but the physics engine. Just the way things move, the particle effects and the way they break apart, the way everything is interactive.

Knowing Valve I don't think they showed us everything there is to it either. On Sept. 30th that's exactly what i'm buying because right now I have to play it :P And the modding will be really fun too. I read somewhere that the modding is going to be a lot easier than HL1, and seeing as where it wasn't all that hard (there's a difference between challenging and hard :) ) Just a little limited in some areas. When you got the right tools it was pretty easy, depending on previous knowledgability (sp?).

But I can't wait...I'm gonna go watch that again :D

Games (like Doom3) that are based inside only usually suck imo. They may look nice but I hate being locked inside for the whole game.

HL2 looks great and I will buy the game on release day. however Doom 3 i could really care less about.

[Adun]

There is no 'use' button in doom3.

Nothing is interactive, its all supposed to be like the last doom games, they really didnt do much new. Since this is such a simple game, they should have made it quicker, but it apparently took very long, maybe longer then half life 2, which has more.

[AsylumX]

No use button? No interactivity...I might play the demo or grab it from a friend...no way am i buying that PoS, lol

[FearTheAtlas]

Linkage to gamplay video?

[JonnyK]

do you know about the new HL2 video? they're releasing that same video from fileplanet, but direct feed @ 1024X768 resolution. It will be put out over steam, it was supposed to be out this monday, but as you can see, they're a little late, so i'll be pissed if they still don't get it out today. because they said it will look very very close to the actual game

[Navaron]

Some one please make sure to link that here.

[AsylumX]

vid is a little over 600megs, it's in .mov format...go grab it off kazaa/kazaa lite :P

or gimme 10 bucks i'll burn it and send it to you, lol

[JonnyK]

shit i didn't know that it was out.. are you talking about the direct feed asylum?

[AsylumX]

Yeah, it's up at fileplanet, they must have got a dumbed down version cus it's only 580megs, give or take...quality might be a little crappier.

Get it either way, kazaa is a bitch though, took me all yesterday to get the whole movie, and i'm on a 1mbit adsl line (shitty connection on the other side, hehe)

then again fileplanet sucks :P but it's a guarenteed download in an hour or two

Now i'm going to install my new HD, i want some replies by the time i get back :P
Edit: Added Link

[JonnyK]

ok, yes, my hunch was true, you are bleeding out the ass.

that HL2 video off fileplanet is the old one, with a shakeycam. hopefully this .mov one off kazaa is the direct feed.

[AsylumX]

must be....i got 2 versions off kazaa, naturally i tried the bigger one first and the quality was great.

i just tried the smaller one...approx 580 megs, and it's shit, lol so it must be the same one. If you can't find it on kazaa just PM me or post it here and i'll hop on, turn file sharing on and you can grab it off me

[JonnyK]

if you would be so kind, share that file, i'm going at 20kb/s here and it's gonna take me 8 hours for this shit. so bump me up a few my kb's plzzz

[ObnoxiousFrog]

I have the video already, the live feed one.


VERY impressive mechanics and technology behind this game.

[AsylumX]

hl2_demo_trailer_full.mov is the name of the file at 616,926kb

have to be the same or it won't work :P

download away mate

[JonnyK]

wuzzat B j00r username on kazaa

yes, that is the video i have downloading

[AsylumX]

name in kazaa is AsylumX, same as one here, just changed it :)

[JonnyK]

/me isn't getting it from you, maybe because your file is 1 kb off

[AsylumX]

Just search again and download from me, depending on your connection i can hit 200k/sec :D

[Spider]

I just saw it... let me say... *JOYGASM*

[Kaltagesta]

it is one helluva game. i have 512 SD [soon to be DDR] ram, 2.66Ghz P4, 533FBS and...... a 128mb geforce mx440. i think i need new vid card. i can afford the 5200fx but from what i hear, its not hugely better than mx440, right?

[Mtx]

Man, I don't give a fuck about someones review. I want a link so I can judge for myself. :(

[Navaron]

WOW WOW WOW.
If Counterstrike came from HL1, then what in God's name is going to come from HL2. The game looks amazing, then the great thing is that you know you're buy 10 games in one, because the mod community is going to go apeshit.

Awesome. That part where the guy runs inside, then blocks the doors, and the enemy runs around to the window to shoot him was amazing. I can't wait to see more!

[JonnyK]

i can't believe you guys haven't seen this video untill now! i saw it like, right after e3 got over. but that one all of you guys are watching, is NOT the direct feed. that has not been released yet and that 620 mb one is just the fileplanet one which is 587 mb in a zip, but the 620 mb one is just the same thing unzipped

so i'll make a post when the direct feed is out, it should own, and it is supposed to be this week, so everyone is praying on today

[Peacemaker]

Im more excited about the vehicals. The thing with HL1 is that it was hard to mod. HL2 devs have said that they are going to make it easy to convert HL1 mods to 2, they will release SDK BEFORE HL2 is out, and that games like DOD and CS are getting changed as we speak.

[Kaltagesta]

i lvoed the bit where he shot all the wood at the beggining. it was completely unscripted, and the way they all leant on each other. maaaan!

and them fuck off huge alian things with the massive thin legs. Yeoch!

[Spider]

I got an idea how to destory em :brow:

Take the levitaty gun and go to a leg and make him flip :lol:

[Kaltagesta]

or lift up your team mates to use as shields. if you got about8 of them, could u and your little team lift up a house? hehheh

[Peacemaker]

Theres a few ways to blow up those walkers (which are advanced forms of our good old friend the headcrabs). My idea would be to gravitron an explosive barel up ontop of the arch he crawls under and then shoot it, hopefully it would send it crashing ontop of him. (PS using ur friends as human shield will be waaaay funner in MP)

[Kaltagesta]

haha yeah, in TFC2 you have all the classes-
heavy weps
flame guy
sniper
spy
human shield
grunt

wow, but seriously, i dont spose there are any CS2 screenies are there? i wonder if they really have been given the code to work off already. i mean, they are still beta testing 1.6 on the hl1 engine. that must be frustrating, working on that knowing HL2 is just round the corner

[Timormi]

how do you find a single person on Kazaa lite... I can't seem to figure it out:confused:
