The make or break for this will be how quickly and smoothly the current round of popular things in Gmod get ported over.

S&box isn't a game, it's a platform.

>>737738396
there's 0 reason to port anything.
s&box has none of the mods, features, models, maps, nothing. it doesn't even have CS/HL2 guns gmod had, you start with zero.
why would anyone spend months porting TTT or DarkRP to play what is objectively a worse experience, with 1% of playerbase, at $20 price point?
funny thing the only thing sbox already has is MTX and you can buy hats for $5.

the question for me is what the rules are like compared to hosting a gmod server. can i, or someone of likeminded nature, create an auschwitz server? or is such potential fun not allowed on the platform?

When this inevitably fails do you think Valve will allow other people to use Source 2 without going through Garry?
>>
>>737742208
you will be censored depending on how Garry feels about it at the time, he doesn't like rape or nazis or whatever so he'll probably ban those

i'm pretty sure he has said somewhere that he regrets letting the nazi rp servers stay up

Steam was probably the worst thing that ever happened to Valve from a game developer standpoint, the infinite free money seems to have sapped most of the studio's motivation to actually work on developing games and tools.

Why does he gets to decide what happens in private self-hosted servers? That's none of your business, buddy.

>project with one autistic libtard with wild mood swings in charge

gmod was lightning in a bottle and only happened because nobody else was doing it at the same time
this has lots of competition, gary is a known quantity now, and nobody wants to associate with his cringe or his behavior
I predict this will be a total failure
>>
>>737741818
because source is old and archaic and you can do significantly more, easier, in source 2. s&box is a round about way to gain access to source 2 as a dev basically.
>>
>>737742843
>>737744462
it's valid because you're using his work to promote hate
>>
>>737744554
it's not easier, garry's mod has LUA which a child can pick up, s&box uses C# and acts as a game engine expect it has 1/10 features of a game engine and no documentation nor tutorials.
if you're actually trying to make a game inside s&box you might as well use a proper engine. source 2 is nothing magical, it was obsolete by the time it came out. pretty much the only thing it offers for existing GMOD gamemodes is better graphics, which no GMOD player cares about.

What's wrong with Sampersandbox
>>
>>737744554
>you can do significantly more, easier, in source 2
More, sure, but Gmod is piss easy to work with. It runs on any piece of hardware and you script with LUA, which a monkey could pick up.
>>
>>737744701
you misunderstand what i mean by easier
yes retard devs can't use it
if you are competent and want to accomplish a complex task, often source 2 will have way less friction, and will allow for a much wider scope of possibilities. Its simply the benefits of working with a more modern, better designed engine. You legitimately, and very clearly have no idea what you're talking about. Even over contemporaries like Unity, Source 2 has a lot of a nice features, especially with how it handles networking.
>>
>>737744779
a non retard dev already knows unity/ue/godot and source 2 brings nothing to the table. certainly not worth learning it from zero and especially not when the only way to develop a game in it is trough garry's diarrhea project and not official sdk.
i don't see anyone using it. if a single (1) game made using s&box releases on steam within a years, and sells 10k+ copies i will eat my shit on facebook live
>>
>>737744443
>the infinite free money seems to have sapped most of the studio's motivation to actually work on developing games and tools
I don't agree entirely, but it did make it much easier for Valve to keep throwing out games and concepts for not living up to unreasonable standards. According to themselves, Alyx lit a fire under the studio's ass to complete enough of Source 2 to be able to ship a whole game with it. Between Deadlock and whatever HLX is, there's some hope they'll start releasing games regularly again.

No, no, no.

I was mad like you at first, why the fuck would he destroy that forum, but i have realized a few years back garry was just thinking ahead. Look at knockout now its filled with tranny retards who made it a safespace, garry didn't wanna deal with that shit and i understand that now.

>and only happened because nobody else was doing it at the same time
stupid nigger, garry took the idea from someone else who had also made a game just like GMoD but it died off becasue garry's version got more popular than his

It will probably result in some god-tier multiplayer games, but done in spite of Garry. No one will use the Fanboy and Chum Chum models, no one will use the base game as a platform, devs will just make all the assets themselves and branch off into standalone products.

Who the fuck would want to enter a market where there is already 2 much older freely available engines that have more features and more support.
They just don't want to have to listen to retards and their endless requests and support tickets full time at the cost of everything else

I've spent some time around the Dota 2 custom game community and even in that limited scope, there was several people constantly begging for attention from Valve employees because they were convinced they can't realize their dream game despite other people in the same community having already created more impressive projects than whatever dogshit they were planning.

I made an SA account to discuss Paradox games. It's mostly fine for vidya discussion since they have threads up for all kinds of games you could never get more than 2 replies on here. Just fucking stay as far as you can from discussing any politics, those niggers cannot stand anyone but tankies

How does this work for custom playermodels? Do they just not exist in S&box? Like 15% of the appeal of GMod is being able to have shit like Agent Smith, Kermit, Miku and Heavy all on the same server with varying qualities of SWEP cosmetics slapped on them

It won't be because games made with s&box toolset would have to stay within it's contained ecosystem to be eglibile for monthly pay outs and I can't really imagine thirdies ditching already memorized unreal or unity just to make source engine 2 games for some bizarre reason.

it's largely because of Youtube back then and company going public in 2021 recently.

it doesn't i put several thousand hours into gmod and i'm not going to even consider buying this one
idc about anything else how the fuck can someone be so delusional to find those sausage people visually pleasing in ANY way, jesus christ, the most ugly designed characters ever
no i don't care if they never show up in any of the custom gamemodes they're still a red flag that the retard has 0 idea what he's doing

The editor will never be 100% native on Linux until they get some editor-specific .sos from Valve.
It seems to work through proton with enough tinkering.
