>>737942737WHAT THE FVVVVVVVVVVVCK WHY DIDN'T YOU BOUGHTED THE GAME /V/? THINK OF ALL THE BIG FAMILIES THAT WON'T GET FED TONIGHT!
>>737943019They can eat my ass
>>737943474>TheyYou mean Garry
>>737942737The raped
>>737942737all he had to do was port gmod to source 2, why the fuck did he decide to make a whole new game with these low-income hello neighbor variants??
>$20 to get time-scammed by Roblox gameswhy did he think this was appealing
>>737942737Lmao
>>737942737https://sbox.game/news/post-releasehe's clearly seething
>>737943019so why do we(drama addicted brownoids) hate it?
Linux dev tools when?
>>737951310we lost money on hats because people dont play our ai games
>>737950430>It's unfair to call it ai slop>Doesn't actually give a single actual reason why it's unfair
>>737950430>Some games have their thumbnails created by AI and so get dismissed too. I don't think these guys are doing themselves any favours, but it's easy, so people do it. If I spent x hours passionately developing a game I would not even think about using an AI-generated thumbnail.>AI is the teacher now. It's how people are going to learn how to program from now on. They're going to be generating their own examples and have it explain the code to them. I feel that outright banning the use of AI is a bad thing, because I'm not worried, I think human creativity is always going to win out.For the people who vibe code everything their brain is literally turned off the entire time. There's two kinds of AI programmers, the ones who use AI as a slave to whip when it's being retarded, and the ones who literally have no idea what Claude is churning out. These people are literally learning nothing.
>>737951460>banking on FOMO before the game is even outel may ayy oh

You can't have just a little bit of slop of the menu and not be a slop restaurant.
Gmod was cool in an era where game engines weren't accessible to anyone outside of major studios. It doesn't make as much sense today.I know Roblox is huge, but that's because it's F2P and aimed at ipad kids. I kinda doubt they'll switch over
>>737951460thats a steam issue
>>737953314https://sbox.game/itemstoreIt's a steam issue they added a fucking fomo cosmetic store?
Financebros fuck off back to biz, ban steam shart threads
>>737942737>Sees Fortnite start hemmorhaging players by trying to turn itself into Roblox>Decides now is the perfect time to make a Roblox cloneIt's time to send you to the farm, Garry.
You don't hate Gary enough.
>>737942737TDS claims another dev
>>737951815>There's two kinds of AI programmers, the ones who use AI as a slave to whip when it's being retarded, and the ones who literally have no idea what Claude is churning out. These people are literally learning nothing.I've started asking AI questions I already know the answer to just so I can practice humiliating people when they're wrong
WHY GARRYGARRY WHY
Half Life 2 but the Combine is shitty AI games and Garry is Breen. Who will be our one free man?>EARTH SURRENDERS (to slop)
>>737951460>still worth 200 dollars
>>737955737>worth
Garry, please add back hl2 sounds, it would literally save the soul of the game
>>737955018You'll be the first to die when the AI takes over.
>>737942737looks boring
If gmod released today as a brand new game, with no childhood nostalgia attached, would /v/ actually like it?
>>737951448Never. Linux is for servers only and no one in our team knows how to use it, so we won't be supporting it. You should install Windows on your Steam Deck and Steam Machine if you want to run Source 2, it will probably run better anyways.
>>737957292You will not became a millionaire with s&bloxNever. The dream is over.
>>737942737I simply do not understand why this exists
>>737957292>if a finished game released today would /v/ like itIt would also need to be funny or entertaining and gmod is all 3.>>737958531Greed
>>737952859This is the funniest part to me, the newer generation of kids looking for a game like Garry's Mod with tons of modded gamemodes to sink thousands of hours into are already playing Roblox as its free, easily accessible on all platforms and is now more popular than ever. None of them are going to even consider a PC-only game with a $20 barrier to entry.
>>737950430the maps are 300+ mb big, im not fucking downloading some slop with AI thumbnails on the off chance it isnt shit
>>737954613I guesshats are a steam thing
>>737958531Boomer doesn't understand that the golden days are over.
>>737942737this is a "win" for them btw
>>737958531roblox competitor
>>737957292I'd probably like it, specifically it's original iteration.I don't think it would be a successful release if it came out new in a post gmod world where many games have aped its ease of use, physgun, toolgun and ability to spawn props from a menu. Initially, those were it's main selling features. It was the video game version of lego technics, the fun of it was building machines and posing ragdolls. It also rode the hype of HL2 at the time and relied heavily on it's physics engine. Had gmod never existed kerbal space program, besieged, botw and bk: nuts&bolts probably never would have either. If GMOD released as a brand new game in a world where gmod already exists, there's no point buying it unless it has features that gmod doesn't.If it released in a world where gmod had never existed it would still sell tremendously because to this day no other game captures the breadth of the interactivity of building your own machines out of props, ragdolls and physics interactions that gmod pioneered. There aren't really any contemporary physics heavy games I can think of that gmod could be derived from. Physics just aren't important to the game worlds of today's market. The whole appeal of gmod initially was completely different from the minigame platform that it became. If it were released as a minigame platform it would flop because roblox already exists, but if it were released as a game where you can build your own machines in a market without any gmod clones, it would be successful because there are no other games like it.
>>737942737>>737943019this is just brutal
>>737969478If only you knew how bad things are.
>>737969478nah valve games are heavily botted for whatever reason. There’s probably less than 500 real people online garys mod
>>737969651only stuff like TF2, CS2, and Dota 2 are botted due to the fact that they are free and you can trade stuff in it for money, neither of which really applies to gmod
>>737969651there's no incentive to bot garrys mod
>>737942737Gmod was a game of its era. You can't do it again. It was foolish to try.
>>737972305
>>737971991that's a crock, he could of but instead he wanted to chase the roblox money dragon.I give it a year at most before it drops to under 1k players.
>>737971991I have a life wasting level of hours in garrysmod. 5k according to steam but the bulk of my playtime was from before steam tracked playtime but I have no incentive or reason to play this. I’m not even sure who it’s supposed to be for. roblox zoomers?
i'm too old and bent to relive my garry's mod days but in source 2.i don't want too
>>737971753>>737971827if you look at the server browser, you won't find even 4k
>>737951460what those it cost in the store?
>>737974202$100
>>737972960>I have a life wasting level of hours in garrysmod. 5k according to steam but the bulk of my playtime was from before steam tracked playtime
>>737942737The fact that the marketing was trying to make it seem like it was Gmod 2 is a problem considering Gmod was a lightning in a bottle
>>737957292
>>737951460kek baggies
>>737976345>considering Gmod was a lightning in a bottleLiterally nothing about Gmod is lightning in a bottle.S&box is fucked because Garry took the most soulless shit about roblox cancer and the modern internet and made that the goal of S&box.
>>737978102Honestly the fact that Garry tried to make a roblox clone really does prove that he has no idea what hes doing. Like why Roblox and anything else?
>>737978102>Literally nothing about Gmod is lightning in a bottle.wrong, and it's was, not is. you had to be there, little zoom zoom
>>737978904It's IS you mongoloid because the sandbox experience is still there, as is a catalog addons and the base features in the physics engine to fuck around in. Even if garry completely fucked the public multiplayer scene for the game.
>>737979013>sandbox experience is still there
>>737979179Yes you subhuman, fucking around in singleplayer with everything.The shit people did in Half Life 2 in 2004What people did in JBmod.Why Gmod exists in the firstplace.
>>737957292I don't think the same level of creativity is present today, so GMod wouldn't garner the same community.
>>737971753>>737971827I don't know why but it's done, look at 1.6, source, l4d2. those numbers aren't real and theres no incentive to bot those games
Also this conversation about how nobody bots gmod is retarded, rp servers solicit "donations" from whales.
>>737942737Why was this even created? I legitimately don't get it. What was the point? The entire appeal of Gmod is its simplicity and a bottomless well of user-generated content, so who the fuck would even bother playing this ugly shit?
>>737979453Garry saw the opportunity to become a parasitic middleman to a grotesque imitation of what gmod was after lua was added in the original plan of S&box as an Unreal Engine Epic Game Store exclusive, and currently under his scheme of being a middleman to everything made in "source 2" which it can currently barely be described as
>>737942737>ugly sausage people>shitty roblox knockoff with "experiences" instead of community servers and gamemodes>forcing people to use their own assets instead of giving them a free reign and a mounting system like in gmod>wasting source 2 tech by replacing all of it with your shitty code>UGLY sauagage people>20$ bucks and still unfinished>indifferent towards all the aisloppa stuff flooding it, even use it to vibecode yourself>optimization is bad, looks and plays worse than gmod>FUCKING DISGUSTING SAUSAGE PEOPLEa deserved DOA
Why are they hot dogs?
>>737942737Its a shame since I really wanted an actual Garry's mod 2, I have a feeling that if he didn't use the stupid and fucking grotesque sausage men to advertise the game it might have had a chance, the name is also fucking retarded and it came out poorly optimized on top of it, too many things stacked against it
>>737980295American audience
>>737980338british actually they love sausage people
>>>737950430>bu buh we made PWOFIT!So why are you writing with so much seethe little Garry? Im just not gonna play roblox for "grown ups" is all. I know UGH but im just not gonna do it ahahahahahaha
>>737979567I think a garry's mod in source 2 is a good idea, this is just one of the worst ways to go about it. GMOD is dated as fuck, just imagine what the dedicated modders of that game could do in a better engine, its just that this is a fucking terrible execution of that
>>737979305Can you drive through the hl2 highway levels in a ferrari? Can you fight in the uprising with a harem of zero suit samuses?>>737980295Ground animal meat slop and something about dissuading porn of them.
>>737950430>Some games have their thumbnails created by AI and so get dismissed too. I don't think these guys are doing themselves any favours, but it's easy, so people do it.
>>737980581Valve is a bit to blame for it, unfortunately. What made gmod work was the source paintbrush and canvas with tf2, hl2, cs:s, etc. The fact that all of that is now just nonexistant cause Valve says no makes a huge part of why Gmod is iconic gone
>>737951718He says that most of the games were created by people while the thumbnails were generated by AI, hence it's unfair to call the entire game ai slop. Whether or not that's true, I don't know, but that's the reason he gave.
>>737951460not even a 10 year old would think that these sausage characters look appealing, let alone want to buy these cosmetics
>>737950430See that's his damn problem, his echo chamber. There shouldn't be 5:1 people agreeing that AI slop is good actually
>>737980895>float to the bottom
>>737972085What the hell was he thinking with the hideous sausage people as his default models?
Threadly reminder that Gmod is currently $5 and has infinitely more to do in it's vanilla state than Bl&box does. Not only that but it still received constant high quality addons from passionate modders and Garry is a soulless faggot.
>>737980895If you say something against AI slop in his echo chamber, you'll be greeted by a cat profile picture bastard who works at Facepunch.
>>737980895theyre the ones producing the slop
>>737972305LMAO
>>737969651>We're porting the TF2 botted playercount bullshit argument to fucking gmod.lmfaolol
>>737976345>The fact that the marketing was trying to make it seem like it was Gmod 2They were actively saying it WASN'T supposed to be Gmod 2 for most of its dev cycle.
>>737981151Obviously he bet entirely on the meme appeal. I'm not going to say forced memes never work but this here is a cleary milhouse textbook definition of a forced meme.
>>737972305christ and think that 10k+ people bought this game
>>737951310>drama addicted brownoidsthat's just you, stop projecting.
>>737972305when's the crowbcat video? Would be a genuinely interesting case study.
>>737972305this was already fixed
FUCK YOU GARRY
>>737945694FAGULA
>>737942737I kind of just wanted a cinema mode to watch youtube videos with random people but apparently that was too much to ask for. There's a game mode for it, sure, but it's dead and barebones.
Did they release an updated TTT?
>>737942737Do tell me. How old gary's mod 2 would work? Is it even possible? You could do anything with gary's mod at this point
>>737957292Ps4 dreams is essentially console gmod so, probably?
people told garry the sausage men were bad. He shoulda listened
>>737986904he's literally a narcissist. people will remember him being this adamant about keeping sausage models and making some shitty roblox clone
cardboard king sisters... we're back
Does this game have nude models of Krystal the Fox like the first gmod?
>>737981284>cat...wait a minute
>>737987342nsfw content isn't allowed
>>737942737He should have leaned in to regular looking skins, Roblox kids are growing up and if he can sell skins they can self insert/look attractive they would ditch it in a heartbeat. It is a shame, I would love to relive my gmod zombie map/hidden days.Also what the fuck is up with the videos? The first several videos I click on youtube has no gameplay, people want to know right away if it looks like something they would play.
>>737987649There's unironically no good games.
why did he do it
s&box discord is getting raided
>>737988040kek
>>737979324Minecraft autists would flock to it like crack.
>>737988117the development channel is filled with bbc porn
>>737942737They should've just remade Garry mods with better graphics and more options for players instead they come out with a game to compete with "Roblox"Out of all the games out there , you're going to make one to compete with Roblox ? I've seen a lot of the reviews and that's the number 1 comparison I've seen so far and people say it's an adult version of it. Grown ass adults already play Roblox .They had a good chance on bringing back the Garry's mod scene instead we get a Roblox clone that is more shit than Roblox .
BTFO
>>737988040>>737988117>>737988309
>>737980895he's right though and makes a clear distinction between the two, ai slop =! using ai tools. Like it or not it doesn't matter because ai completely changes the landscape of software development by removing the boring and time consuming parts that make up a large portion of programming
>>737988040>>737988117based
>>737987214erm... uh.. yeah, that's your basic dead cat bounce
>>737981151
>>737986268Source has limits for entities, brushes, map sizes and other shit. Source 2 raises a lot of those limits so I would expect a gmod 2 to also take advantage of stability, lighting and shaders. I expect that on release, it has a lot to do right out of the box including at least one complete in-house gamemode that showcases what gmod 2 is capable of. What I don't want are hotdogs, shitty phone games, fomo, tf2 hats and a "pay the creator" system that encourages botslop and grind. Overall it just seems like a shitty metaverse or roblox.
>>737972085i might actually vomit looking at these things
>>737988539AI does have its place but it doesn't mean there shouldn't be restrictions to stop people from making cash-grab AI games that end up overrunning the store.If Garry really wants to appeal to the most profitable consumer base of the kinds of drooling retards who love those microtransaction filled trash, then its going to scare off people from making things of actual quality and just turn s&box into a get rich quick scheme.Allowing AI to run wild and just trusting the people to "figure it out" is like the people who thought the police should be abolished. Absolute freedom is just anarchy
>>737989532>If Garry really wants to appeal to the most profitable consumer base of the kinds of drooling retards who love those microtransaction filled trash, then its going to scare off people from making things of actual quality and just turn s&box into a get rich quick scheme.garry addressed this
>>737987827>play TTT, the one gamemode that should have been #1 priority to port over>it's extremely barebones and has 10 maps totalwhy?
>>737990047>I'm not going to be mad at people optimizing their games to make people want to play a lot.Oh sure let's go defending the virtual casino owners.Gross.
>>737972305>>737972453>sausage cartoon people>CoD hands
>>737972305$20 btw
>>737986268>Is it even possible?Not in this era. Not without something that would fuck it up immensely as is the case with s&box.
>>737942737Once Again history repeats itself, first with Back 4 Blood and now this
>>737990917no, this is worth 20 dollars. ABSOLUTE KINOOOOOOOO
>>737942737It's obsolete.The people who built contraptions went to Stormworks.The people who "RP" went to GTA...etc
>>737991804triple t kino
>>737991804LMAO, THIS IS YOUR ROBLOX KILLER
>>737988040Couldn't had happened to a nicer bunch.
I heard that s&box uses a client-authoritative networking model instead of server-authoritative. I think there'll be a lot of cheaters in the game, kek.
>>737992474I saw a "dev" complaining about some of Garry's choices with S& and he basically said everything good Valve had built for source 2 he had removed, messed with or replaced including the networking systemI can't find the original review but this guy is saying some very similar things
>>737991804This is on the same engine as Half Life Alyx btw
>>737990047>>737980895garry can defend this shit on his blog all he wants, people are still gonna look at s&box and see a bunch of ai slop and/or manipulative mobile-tier bullshit and leave.
>>737983969>they rushed to fix this after the game came outMaybe they should finish their engine next time.
>>737988117kek
>>737990047>>737993072it's become very clear that garry doesn't trust proven results, he always wants to check himself. he will add a feature and see what happens to the user base, even if most people know what's going to happen
>>737993826>let's run an experiment on the goyim cattleif you ask me, that's kinda jewish behavior
"Mixed" just means it's to intelligent for normies.
Hows DarkRP play?thats all i care about it. Theres like so many games out there that copied all of Gmods modes (including actual sandbox stuff) that Garrys Mod is an irrelevant game being kept alive by nostalgia. But very few successfully did their RP servers. TTT is another unique one rarely copied.
>>737942737Considering this uses Source 2, is this a better alternative if someone wants to develop a game and doesn't wanna deal with Unity or UE licenses?
>>737993972well noticed
>>737950430I actually like this post, might buy the game. Looks like a fun game
>>737972305This is very true.
>>737994413what's wrong with unreal engine license?
>>737980317>if he didn't use the stupid and fucking grotesque sausage men to advertise the game it might have had a chance, the name is also fucking retardedWell put. Stupid name, stupid characters. He fucked up the most important part of the sale. Even if the rest of your game is good, this is the first thing people see and unless you have an enormous audience, they won't look past it.
>>737995397there is not one redeeming quality of the S&Box, it is objectively worse than Gmod in every way
>>737990047Back to Godot I guess
>>737994351it’s a complete mess with barely any of the features of the Gmod version and runs terribly to boot. not unlike every other aspect of s&box
>>737952859>I kinda doubt they'll switch overThey won't. S&box's whole thing is "Roblox but without the stigma of being for kids", but if people want to make a video game there are already ways to do that without S&box. It's not the worst venture in the world, but it's clear it's not going to ever be a thing.>pic relatedTom is too obscure for this to be effective.
why didn't he just name it garry's mod 2? why did he use the dick people in the early marketing?
find it really funny how 4chan went from anti-ai to pro-ai over the course of a few monthsreal-time contrarianism is always amusing

>>737997375i'm waiting
>>737972085>>737972305>>737972453I think they could still fix this if they remake all the old player models from GMod, make a near-exact replica of what GMod is, and implement some popular addons from GMod as native features. I mean, it's the only way really.

Is there anyone above the age of 12 who plays roblox? I mean except pedophiles/Garry?Making a source 2 roblox seems as retarded as making source 2 farmville, or minecraft and marketing it as "a spiritual successor of gmod".

>>737997563Imagine Garry's apocalyptic seethe when somebody still manages to make porn out of this
I haven't been keeping up with this dogshit Have people been complaining about the ugly sausage people designs since they were announced or did they gaslight themselves into thinking it looks good?These hideous pieces of shit clearly show nobody on the team has any idea how to actually design characters and seems like something that if it was made in the 2000's would be mocked until the devs went with a more "realistic" or at least "stylised realism" approach
>>737950430LMFAO
>>737998626>Have people been complaining about the ugly sausage people designsfrom day 0, but Garry said>its just a test model, don't worry about it
>>737998741I thought it was >fuck you all it's my game I'm using them anyway
>>737998723i'm not getting much better performance in any other steam game from 2026
>>737998626Everyone but him could see these designs as a creative failure and were hating on them since their conception, so much so that Garry even held a vote if he should stick with them. I bet he had a massive hissy fit when that poll returned an overwhelming "no" and decided to double down on sausageslop purely out of spite>>737998723>not good, but not terrible either
>>737998219>AIslopIt's bizarre how mainstream this word is when its origin is "goyslop" which is just an extension of "the liquid jew" and other variants.
>>737998764https://garry.net/posts/mailbag-sausage-menyou might be right
>>737998807>everyone else can't into optimization either, so let this one slideno. this barebones game should be running at 300+ fps on a r7 9800 and 5080
>>737998930yes on higher end systems i agree, the small difference between the lowest is weird
>>737998807games are infamously unoptimized in 2026, but s&box seems so simplewhy is it running this badly?
