HLX soon, bros. Hopium administered
never ever
No one cares, kids and modern gamers don't care about gordon freeman the hype died a decade ago
>>6032291You think the only relevant gaming platform will not be able to make cattle people care about a genuine advancement in the state of the art?
freeman will be a black trans lexbian
>>6031739The only reason I don't want Half-Life 3 to arrive is that will it will make realize how much time really has passed.Sometimes I still can look at HL2 and relive that feeilng that it's the most graphically impressive game yet, as if I was looking through my 2004 eyes.It's weird that there are people, adults even, who were born after the game and have no idea how monumental it was/is.
>>6032329Not if made by Valve.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NczmW36YIHw
>>6032291
>>6031743Honestly, Alyx was way better than what I imagined HL3 to be, very impressive.
I don't think it's happening
Need a nothing ever happens half life edit
>>6032427is there a way to play it without vr?i got an old 1st run htc vive in storage (bought from valve) but i only used it a few times (waste of £800) before thinking "what the fuck is having screens this close to my eyes going to do for long term eye-health, not to mention the radiation/frequency it's blasting directly into my eyeballs".ftr never had any issue with motion sickness or any other gay shit that pussies apparently get, just thought "this crap that close to your eyes canNOT be good long term (and my eyesight ain't great as it is)" so fuck that. into the cupboard you go and there it has lain since, what, 2015? can't 'member."nice" tech relic to keep gathering dust though, some mug may well buy it for a fortune one day in the future (it's basically mint). assuming mankind is still around and we haven't had the heat-death of the universe yet or whatever.
>>6033495>is there a way to play it without vr?Yes. But you shouldn't. It's designed entirely around VR.>"what the fuck is having screens this close to my eyes going to do for long term eye-healthNothing.>not to mention the radiation/frequency it's blasting directly into my eyeballs"Sunlight is 100,000 lux and blasts UV directly into your eyeballs.>this crap that close to your eyes canNOT be good long termThen never, ever go outside during the day.>some mug may well buy it for a fortune one day in the future (it's basically mint)It's worthless and you're retarded.
>>6033590>Then never, ever go outside during the day.I haven't seen sunshine in years
>>6033495The lenses inside artificially create distance between eyes and screens so your eyes can focus on them, technically it's no different from looking at the monitor (or more like an old plasma TV since 1st gen Vive likely has a very low per-eye resolution).I fully support other anon in saying that you shouldn't bother with the game if you can't play it in VR, if you just need the story, you can read the summary or watch playthroughs online. And it's going to be a really long wait before your headset costs its initial value again, HDMI port may not be present on graphics cards by then
>>6031739Thanks for posting that edit OP, it's probably the best hopium video

>>6034017Wait there's an Okami sequel? Nice.
>>6031741nice
To me, what would be truly exciting about HLX is not necessarily the continuation of Half-Life's story (though I'm sure it will be quite good, incidentally) but just the way Valve always seems to release games solely in order to further the very medium itself. To outline just what is possible and others have been missing up until that point. New benchmarks the industry cannot help but base itself around. The idea that HLX would somehow be the next evolution of this trend.
>>6034418The stuff found in the strings sounds pretty neat, no idea how it'll look like once it's coherently presented though
>>6031739https://www.indy100.com/gaming/half-life-3-release-date-2674327665
Ngl I'm starting to lose hope
>>6035032Check out this series of /v/ posts for another hopium boost.>>>/v/726477063
>>6035167what's the source on that? I hope it's a mod.
>>6035211Don't remember the source, sorry.
>>6035167looks like omaha beach
>>6035326lost hard
>>6031739what band? song seeems super familiar and i cant put me fingee on it.
>>6035655Is that the roller mine from DOG's playground? I remember back in 2013 trying to take it from there all the way to Nova Prospekt but there was an invisible wall in Ravenholm at the rooftop defense right before the graveyard. I wonder how you or the guy who filmed this got it through.
>>6035762iirc those are just some Combine killer balls, i think there's like dozen of them throughout the game
>>6035766Yeah but this one is the deactivated one from where you get the gravity gun. I'm just surprised they managed to get it all the way to the end of Nova Prospekt.
>>6035762Probably the same trick speedrunners use to push props through walls
>>6031739returning to the fandom after a decade and seeing its fucking infested with the troon plague.
>>6031743why is it shaped like a bacteriophage?
>no CP violation in the entire threadsad
>>6034017This is literally what happened last year
>>6036093Saved
Bump
requesting the ultra-rare screencap of the half life 1-2/universe tldr qrd that explains that half life 3 wont happen in video game format, but half life 3 is real life.please any anon have it? i need it for my esoteric occult researchalso i cant upload pics?bump
>>6035655kek
Do you even realize how lucky we were to live in the half life times?
>>6037974Dude it's just a game, a linear corridor shooter with scripted cutscenes. It was impressive on release but aged poorly. Its time was literally 20 years ago.
>>6037767seconding this request, wtf never seen anything about that
>>6038006>Its time was literally 20 years ago.so you're talking about hl2. be specific niggereither way you're severely wrong and retarded, hl1 was fucking huge as was hl2 - extremely important times (srs business) and i suspect you're just salty you weren't there BECAUSE YOU WERE IN FUCKING NAPPIES YOU LITTLE FAGGOT
>>6038254I didn't even have a PC during hl1 times, but I did play hl2 on release, it was one of my favorite games from that time. I've just replayed it last year [spoiler]in VR[/spoiler] and realized it's not as good as I remember (funnily enough, episodes felt better than what I remember).
Looking for more videos with half-life dubbing if anyone has 'em
>>6038412
>>6038435Chef's kiss
>>6038253it was about cern fucking it all up and opening a portal for demonz to get here.the screencap had really good arguments and evidence to lend that theory credibility.
>>6036106>why is it shaped like a bacteriophage?Yes.
>>6038669Purrfection
>>6033590>Yes. But you shouldn't. It's designed entirely around VR.Fuck that, VR is a gimmick.
Sounds like cope.
>>6033495>what the fuck is having screens this close to my eyes going to do for long term eye-healthYou're not actually looking at the screen by your eyes, you're looking through it. That's why your vision is still bad in VR if you're nearsighted, if it was all just right by your eyes then nearsighted people would see perfectly in VR
Can we keep this thread going till the announcement?
>>6040981he's not being very clear, when will the game reveal be?
>>6036105that's all fandoms for you
It's never happening. Gaben made a deal with the devil to stay alive until he completes a trilogy.
nevermind hl3, where's ricochet 2 gabe? where is it?!?
>>6041475Luckily, the only way he's going to be able to keep Death occupied long enough for doctors to cure one of is loved ones, is by releasing Half Life 3.
Does Portal count?
>>6031739soon, right behind the corner
>>6033681>>6031739>>6033578Hopium induced coma for 20 some odd years...is it the time to wake up again? https://www.youtube.com/shorts/zjrCgIApP2I
>>6036093splendid
>>6038435The ammo pickup sound when the hangers were stacked on got in in stitches, lovely detail
>>6038435I'm genuinly crying, I haven't laughed this hard in a month
>>6036586Looks like doppe'ler makes everything sound like Christopher Walken.
Its TGA or never, i'm certain
Today.
>>6036242do you have one for triage at dawn?
>>6043435no, the 11th
>>6031739I recently got HL2 SMOD CSS Sci Fi 3: Hardwired Stanalone to work just the way I want, without crashing and stuttering.Man, I had forgotten how good this game was.
>>6043678
>>6043680god being able to kick those fucking annoying drones looks so satisfying hated those boring not-lost souls
>>6043730Yeah, having to swap to the crowbar to deal with them (or waste ammo) was just annoying.>>6043678>>6043680Here is the whole game package (including SMOD 40aq, Redux and Tactical as well):https://uploadnow.io/en/share?utm_source=NGjz4hG>inb4 LostBoy.exeIf you're scared, you can just steal my config files and install the game from somewhere else. Such as:https://archive.org/details/smod-standalone-css-sci-fiMy fixes to CSS Sci Fi makes the game not crash or stutter (as much), adds a lot of VFX, adds better kicking (Q), superjump (ctrl+space), squad commands (C to command them to move to location, CC to make them follow).All vehicles can now be taken down with a couple of explosives (instead of 15), destructibles can actually be kicked into pieces, enemy shields can be destroyed with normal weapons, etc. Loads of little fixes.The difficulty is set to easy, but scales well with the in-game difficulty setting (hard is recommended).Don't run the Config utility or you'll break all the configs. User_custom.cfg and skill.cfg are the most important.Enjoy
>>6043730>>6043835Oh, and>TabBullet time>MMBAlt fire>RMBIron sights
>>6043656yeah, the mood seems to have shifted towards that. If an announcement is still to be this year its either TGA or the few days before. But that at point Valve would probably just do TGA if they have something to show. Of course the other option is next year and then who knows.
>>6042191source?
>>6044957obviously
>>6044451Nothing will happen.
>>6045980Until it happens.That is the rule of universe.
Soon bros...

>>6043678>>6043680>>6043730>>6043835>>6043837Thanks so much, anon.
WE SHALL HOPE ON THE BEACHES, WE SHALL HOPE ON THE LANDING GROUNDS, WE SHALL HOPE IN THE FIELDS AND IN THE STREETS, WE SHALL HOPE IN THE HILLS; WE SHALL NEVER DOOMPOST. AND EVEN IF, WHICH I DO NOT FOR A MOMENT BELIEVE, THIS GAME WERE NOT TO BE ANNOUNCED TODAY, THEN OUR HOPERS BEYOND THE COMING DAYS, COPING AND GUARDED BY SCHIZOPHRENIA, WOULD CARRY ON THE STRUGGLE, UNTIL, IN GOD'S GOOD TIME, THE STEAM MACHINE, WITH ALL ITS POWER AND MIGHT, STEPS FORTH TO THE REVEAL AND RELEASE OF EPISODE 3.
>>6048701crack-lifecrack-life: campaigncrack-life: anniversaryall three games are great. luv the houndeyes in the first one so much.protip for anyone who hasn't played the 1st one: the nazis usually kill you in 1-2 hits but the pingas gun is the most effective thing to use against them. if you know some are lurking around go slow and snipe them as soon as you see a hint of an arm, one shots them iirc.that fuckin jungle level in anniversary was a bit of an annoying slog to get through but so worth it.
>>6049072uh i meant worth it to get to see the rest of the insane game after that, not that the jungle was worth it (it wasn't, didn't like that part). just clarifying.
TODAY'S THE DAY
>>6049154WHAT DAY?
>>6049154The day you finally kill yourself after your letdown yet a-fucking-gain?
