Yet you can still pluck Wheatly off the wall and take him along.

It says I have an incomplete installation of Portal 2 when starting up after this update, is anyone else having that?
[QUOTE=SweetSwifter;29515811]Yet you can still pluck Wheatly off the wall and take him along.[/QUOTE] That probably isn't fixable without editing the map and I imagine they're hesitant to make everyone download the whole map again just for that.
Oh joy, and yet i'm still unable to actually play the game.
[QUOTE=Wiggles;29515908]That probably isn't fixable without editing the map and I imagine they're hesitant to make everyone download the whole map again just for that.[/QUOTE] It's probably like 4Mb.
[QUOTE=Canary;29516096]It's probably like 4Mb.[/QUOTE] More like 40.
[QUOTE=Canary;29516096]It's probably like 4Mb.[/QUOTE] Eh, probably not.
[QUOTE=subenji99;29515880]:psyduck:[/QUOTE] [quote]Improved: Reliability on unsupported Intel Mobile Series 4 Express chipsets[/quote] valve you and your ninja edits.
They removed changing teams :(
Strange that they didn't fix the Reportal glitch. You'd think that would be a concern.
[QUOTE=Canary;29516096]It's probably like 4Mb.[/QUOTE] They still have to fiddle with maps and stuff, albeit they're only changing one thing but it's too much hassle for a small error. Anyway, it adds more fun to an already fun game and you can't even take it to the next chamber so why is it a problem?
[QUOTE=soliunasm;29517532]Strange that they didn't fix the Reportal glitch. You'd think that would be a concern.[/QUOTE] What reportal glitch? That doesn't sound very descriptive.
They need to make reload remove any existing portals... It's like the easiest thing to do and makes a ton of sense.

[QUOTE=soliunasm;29519151][url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWS34Seh9JA[/url][/QUOTE] That isn't a glitch, its how the portals work.
[QUOTE=Jsm;29519296]That isn't a glitch, its how the portals work.[/QUOTE] Incorrect. You aren't supposed to be able to get increased momentum every time you go through a portal like that. You're supposed to stay the same height from where you jumped into the portal at the same momentum. If you want, try it in Portal 1.
[QUOTE=Jsm;29519296]That isn't a glitch, its how the portals work.[/QUOTE] no, it definitely isn't
[quote]Removed: Unsupported console commands (“retry”, “[b]switch_teams[/b]”) that caused problems if used[/quote] there were no problems with that command :colbert: well it was fun while it lasted
What did switch teams do exactly?
I am sure I did something very similar a few times in the first portal game (maybe not the exact same), although the comments on the video explain why its happening and it does sound like its a side effect of something else. [editline]30th April 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Mikesword221;29519671]What did switch teams do exactly?[/QUOTE] It switched teams. The different teams in portal being the two robots, from what I saw it swapped both players models to the other one. I saw one video where someone was just spamming the command.

[QUOTE=Jsm;29519681]and it does sound like its a side effect of something else.[/QUOTE] It is. They tried removing Peek-a-Portaling(Where you stand in your portal and shoot another one while in the portal. In simple terms, let's say you shoot an orange portal at a wall and a blue one on the other wall. You walk into the orange portal but not far enough so that you can shoot a portal. You are now standing in the orange portal. Now, if you walk a bit forward you can now shoot a portal at the wall ahead of you. If you crouch and then shoot the blue portal while moving backwards(Or whatever respective side is opposite of the wall the orange portal is on) you should still be standing in the orange portal but the blue portal changed positions. This allowed you to make chamber 15's portion where you need to put an energy ball into one of the sockets to make some platforms move pretty much obsolete. Same deal with Chapter 19, you could get through it by doing this without even activating the platform or any of the parts to the fire pit. It also made it so that if you go out of bounds you could easily travel without needing to be in bounds. Here's a video I made just to quickly show you how it works: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MVJd0EebVE[/url] What Portal 2 does to combat this is violently force you out so that you can't do this. So the way the Reportal glitch works is that when you fall through the portal you are shooting the same color, so it's thinking you're standing in it and it pushes you out, increasing your momentum and therefor, your height.
