Half-Life2 needed a new game plus where you start with the supercharged gravity gun.

Just imagine that trash can cop at the beginning all “You! Pick up that can!” and you’re like “I AM THE THIRD REVELATION!”

I just imagine ripping concrete off buildings and hurling it at him. Your only weapon is the gravity gun. You just fucking hurl tanks and shit at the combine, you're a goddamn trebuchet as you arch back to get momentum and start using tanks to knock their ships out of the sky. You're like a living fucking god, ripping up pavement and trees to stop bullets, taking out whole sections of buildings to take out snipers.

Sounds like a trip.

PS. Can't wait to see what that faggot Tyler McVicker comes out with. He's always either regurgitating stuff valvetime/non faggy FP users found or obvious lies he's been fed by "trusted anonymous sources" and he's been doing this for like a decade now.

Do you still think Tyler McVicker is a faggot Coolio?

I'd hold off if you're at minimum, FPS dips in VR are rough.

On the plus side, SteamVR has some great scaling options for lower end hardware. I'm below min spec on half the games I play but fucking with resolution I can get either a consistent 120 or reprojected 60 on the Index.

Probably because it’s made by a small indie company, I dunno. Do you all want this forum to expand to Boneworks discussion?

Boneworks discussion would be nice, I'm sure the thread will be full of it from tomorrow on.

If anyone gets it they’re totally welcome to share their first impressions of it. I’ve said this before, HLA and Boneworks are the big two. The two VR games that are really ambitious and will change the fucking industry.

I really wanna know if it's good. I wanna know if it's the "virtal world where hackers train with firearms" that we joked about in 2001.

The whole plot is you’re a guy named Ford jacking into a VR game to fix the clock, and as you descend further and further the AI keeps getting stronger and tries to kill you.
One of the cofounders of Stress Level Zero has said that a lot of the games storytelling is show-don’t-tell. It’s not gonna be like Half Life 2 where you take breaks from gameplay to watch characters talk to you.

This guy is the lead developer for Hotdogs Horseshoes and Hand Grenades, by the way.

is it good or is it poo, that is the question (Mythbusters)

Also i already said it vnn is gay because all he does is regurgitate from facepunch or wherever the source engine hackers from there go now (probably discord. ugh.)
