Something makes me angry that we know so much yet so little about HL2 development pre-2002. Why?
>>683685762I'm really curious about the original version. From the main menu, it seems to take place in New York right in the middle of the Seven-Hour War.
>>683685886This is where Hunt down the freeman drew inspiration from btw
>>683685762Wait, that's that one map from We've Got Hostiles.
>>683688602it is, that was used to test ai in hl2, this image is from a presentation
I always wonder about what's with the sudden change of setting to Eastern Europe. I suspect Viktor Antonov convinced Valve to move the setting to fit in the aesthetic mix of Slav architecture with the alien structure design, they did pretty well for that at least.
>>683689636Yeah and i think they considered USA a bit generic.
>>683685762>path passes directly through world geometry
>>683685762Probably because it consisted of figuring out the mechanical groundwork. Engine work, ai work, physics, etc.
>>683692095It was in a really early Source engine I recall. They had a demo out "Get Your Free TVs!", using the primitive version of the engine with Goldsrc UI in it.
>>683685762I promise you it's not that interesting
Why won't they just show us Get Your Free TVs? Is this punishment for our insolence and leaks?>>683689636Which nova prospekt transmission?
