HL2 expansion

[FarFarAway]

Farcry is gay. Why? Stealth Trigen. Even Trigen at all, why did the developers have to ruin what was shaping up to be a good game with stupid monsters. If they had left it just you vs mercs it would have been a lot better recieved, because no one[/I'] makes FPS games without monsters these days. It would have been almost unique.

That would be my one main quibble with the game. I'm pretty sure that they did that so not all the enemies were the same. I think that they could have just made different mercs though! Those things annoy me as they have no tactics really...at least not as good as the normal AI!!

dude i LOVE stealth Trigens ...... they add an interesting twist in that boiler part of the game . Turn on the Infrared vision and blast those monsters out of the game.

One good thing about Far Cry is u start with dumb soldiers as enemies then go to harder mercs and then later on stupid trigens to insanely dumb bruttish hard-to-kill types who just wont die no matter wtf you do to them.

But DAMN that game has soooo much more options to play it than HL2 IMHO.

plus u get to HAND GLIDE !!!!!! that part is FREAKING AWESOME . OOOO and the dumb CIA agent in bikini ....... DROOOOOOOOLS ...... much better than Alex

Agreed with the CIA chick...and agreed with the options off attack. By foot, by land vehicle, by air! Not too keen on the Trigents tho - soz!

Finally got a copy of PC Gamer from Tesco

My my, Valve are busy boys at the the moment - Aftermath, The Lost Coast and a completly reworked Day of Defeat :worship:

The Lost Coast is a brand new level that attempts to stretch the Source engine to breaking point, while providing new playtime within the HL2 world. It will be released for free over Steam, it's coming soon, and its going to break your video card.

Minimum system requirements for The Lost Coast? 3.2GHz CPU, 1GB RAM and "a top of the range graphics card (not tied to a specific manufacturer"

Gotta get the mag and read the article peeps - I nearly peed myself :wiggle:

I like Far Cry's gameplay better than HL2 but that might just be me.

AI in Far Cry is insane and the environment is so bright and pruuuuuuuuuty with clear ocean beaches and green forests and lots of idiot mercenaries to kill/blow up .

Far cry was kind of cool and different, but the main character and CIA chick need to be changed to something besides redneck and retarded whore. The gameplay is ok, but too stealthy for me. I liked it better a year ago when I played it for some reason. The AI isn't too bad in far cry, except that enemies can see you from fuckin 5 miles away and kill nail you with their m4s. That makes it good at higher dificulties though. It's a pretty good game with nice graphics and gun sounds, but nothing special in my book.

The expansion for HL2 is gonna be nice. It's hard to expand on perfection.

Yeah but I'm sure that Valve will do it.....again!

Farcry is ok...I play it...but not 100% keen on it. Its good for some shhotin' action and cheesy movie stylee laughes!

Yeah, I think they'll make a sweet expansion unlike doom3. I want to see some good maps come out for HL2 SP in the current time. I've played em all, there are only a couple that were decent. A lot of people are learning or concentrating on bigger projects though.

Most internet upload speed is shit. I wouldn't ever send anything over 100MB since it will take a fuckin century. If you have incredible upload speed, you could use almost anything. I used messenger to send GTA3 once.
