How can you get stuck in a 5 minute tech demo?

Just open the doors...

Shove a lampstand into the launcher. They get very upset when you do that.

Well I got in and it was over quick. That was kinda lame. Pretty but lame.

Just got through Lost Coast...what the hell took them so long to make this 10 minute long tech demo?

Sure, it's kinda pretty but nothing all that special.

Quite over-hyped in my opinion. Back to Quake 4 and F.E.A.R. for me.

To everyone who asks that - turn on the audio commentary!

They actually explain that they had to change the rendering code for every single rendering pass, reflection, refraction, and viewpoint rendering.
That costs quite a bit of time.

The commerntary is quite useful.

"Nice knowin ya" hehe, poor old dude

 

[Busithoth]

funny, I forgot this came out, after reading so much about it for so long.
tonight, after work, I'll try it (if I can spare the 10 minutes)

 

[DrLuke2003]

I'll play through it again to see if it's more enjoyable with the commentary on.

I was just expecting more than 15 minutes of the same gameplay and nicer lighting for something that took them so long to make, and that was hyped so much.

 

[goota]

****** that was short, damn. makes me want more, the graphics are crazy sexy, it ****** owns my fps lol.

Don't forget they are working on the Aftermath expansion , more CS:S content they just released DoD Source as well... Yet you b*tch about a tech demo being too short? geez...

Also I don't think Valve hyped this to much. I think other web sites and some forums did though...

 

[SonicIce]

Make sure that when you play it to put the skill level to Hard. That'll make it a good half hour of gameplay.

Well if they hadn't wasted their time stealing 10 minutes of my life, they could have had that CS:S stuff out by now. It looked good and all, but I could have died happy without lost coast.

I wish they coulld have finished that rusty boat puzzle!!!

lol me too...

edit: finished it. bleh...it's ok. the graphics were simply amazing, far better than regular HL2 but it was way too short. all that waiting for this? besides, is hdr enabled anywhere else?

 

[Slogun]

How do you turn the commentary on?

 

[DrLuke2003]

I believe the commentary switch is in the "audio" section of the options.

When you start a new game, it also prompts you as to whether or not you want it enabled.

 

[jwcooper]

Does anyone else get incredible motion sickness from this?

I feel like I have to throw up after about 2 minutes of playing. This was also for regular HL2, but more drastic in Lost Coast...


Is there any way of fixing this?

 

[0roo0roo]

yea i did it with commentary first, pretty nice, even though my system can't do hdr, the level design is pretty kewl
