[QUOTE=stepat201;15953688]That would be awesome but it's not happening.[/QUOTE] After two years and no mention of it? Do you think it takes this much time to add a couple modifications to an already made engine?
Your not a coder. It's not as simple as "Lol, edit, copy paste code"
... the L4D engines are merely forks of Source 2007. They lack the vehicle code, for example. Anyways, I hope we'll have some A.I. Director, up-to-date Havok, FUCKING MULTICORE, and the legs display when you look down :v:
TitaniumSrc
[QUOTE=Funcoot;15951318]No, I want an engaging story and game that plays out exactly how Valve wanted it. I want a game that I can play once and be satisfied. Not a game I have to play over and over to get my monies worth. The AI director just wouldn't fit well for a single player game in my opinion.[/QUOTE] You would play once and be satisfied. However, you could also play multiple times to be satisfied, too.
Source. :downs:
If valve doesn't give source full dynamic lighting and better texture rendering optimization (AKA: Occlusion rendering you fucks!) [b]I'LL FUCKING RAAAAAAAAAAGEEEEEEEEEEE[/b]
[QUOTE=Max of S2D;15957206]legs display when you look down :v:[/QUOTE] I don't like legs. They scare me when I look down..
The next iteration of the Orange Box engine.
The Wolfenstein 3D engine
How about the Duke Nukem 3D's 2.5D engine?
I know it's just a detail, but they could add your body model into the first person view. And I guess it will be upgraded Source with added something from L4D games, too (effects, more animations?).
I would want some swimming NPC's. Upgraded source engine.
You didnt have body model and such in half life2 for game to be smoother.
I want the rebels to use tactics, and squad teamwork.
[QUOTE=Butthurter;15961394]I will kill myself if a Combine soldier is stuck inside a table, that is, if they had improved it in L4D2.[/QUOTE] I hate the L4D Engine, Hunters shouldnt rocket backwards at 7000 MPH from a couple of bullets. Yeah, i also dont want Combine pouring out of that impossibly small room i just checked.
I just hope they "unleash" source and it's true power. So much graphics under the hood, but buried in the source code.
It'll probably be a modified L4D2 engine, and maybe an AI Director that will be modded so that it observes the player's skill and then place NPCs, items, and whatnot up ahead of you accordingly.

It would have taken them at least a year to make ep3 then if they did that.
Valve dont need the AI director in Episode Three. Turtle Rock used it because theyre too lazy to place the zombies themselves
well tf2 uses source engine 2 l4d se 3 ep3 se 4 xD edit: i was sarcastic you don't need to vote dumb
[QUOTE=wedewdw;15965343]well tf2 uses source engine 2 l4d se 3 ep3 se 4 xD[/QUOTE] :ughh: Thats the dumbest thing i ever heard
I dont care, I just want: parallax occlusion dynamic lighting that works well better water physics-based animation maybe? and textures better than 512x512. and a really high poly alyx :q: did I just say that? :suicide:
[QUOTE=limulus54;15965743]parallax occlusion dynamic lighting that works well better water physics-based animation maybe?[/QUOTE] Dynamic lights? ... :gizz:

[QUOTE=smurfy;15966010]Dynamic lights? ... :gizz:[/QUOTE] We have them, but they aren't too great right now. Also the higher res textures would be nice, like a option to enable them (or the high setting). But it will near double the damn size of textures in the GCF, which means evil download. :gizz:
[QUOTE=NixNax123;15952301]I don't want it to be some kind of modified L4D engine. I want an [b]extemely[/b] improved version of source. Source 3. Better AI, Multiple routes, Awesome, but compatible, graphics. Latest version of Havoc with everything and modifications. Water. Ice. Etecetera[/QUOTE] et cetera is two words. it comes from Latin which means "and other things"
Just check the Steam hardware survey results, and you'll know what kind of specs they'll be aiming for.
[QUOTE=I am a noob;15957546]I don't like legs. They scare me when I look down..[/QUOTE] what if they gave freeman [B]sexy legs![/B]
There is no 'L4D Engine' you dolts. It's all Source.
