Portal 2 Megathread Mark VIII - Fuck Compwhizii Edition

[elevator13]

Jesus co-op is long

I've spent about 5 hours on it so far and I don't think I'm halfway done
and it's fun as fuck

[DSG]

I'm at the [sp]Cave Johnson test chambers[/sp] and it feels like I'm towards the end of the game already, plus none of the chambers so far have been very challenging at all. The only one that really stumped me for longer than a minute was the one with [sp]the three lasers but only two deflection cubes[/sp], and that wasn't even too bad. Can someone who might be further along than me maybe drop a hint if there are chambers coming up that are considerably more challenging, no story/technique-specific spoilers?

[Swiket]

I just woke up. Decrypting now. :buddy:

[Gabe Newell.]

Will be able to use Portal 2 models in gmod? I'd love to get my hands on the atlas and p-body models.

[waylander]

if you've just started those, I'm finding a few of them bloody hard.

[Adam_Roman]

Been playing it since release, haven't even gotten to propulsion gel yet.

I savor games the first time through.

[Christof P]

Oh, so you finally unlocked Portal? Well done you guys.
I guess this means I have to be careful for the next few days as I ordered it for Xbox.

Possible spoiler.

[sp]I donno what I just seen but when I typed "map e1912" in to the console it took me to a map of a train crash and the end of it, it linked me to http://www.super8-movie.com/index6.html in the steam browser of a trailer which the map is exactly like. Possibly the ARG isn't over?[/sp]

Isn't that website for a movie made by the same guy who made Cloverfield?

Why did Portal 2 link me to it and why does it have a map of it?

[Newb]

It is only a matter of time before someone makes a rule 34 on the co-op bots.

[arachnidsGrip]

Woah [sp]The whole thing with the history of Aperture is awesome. Especially the contrast between the 1950s section and the 1970s section.[/sp]

[D_M_]

My copy of portal 2 has started it's journey in the mail 2 hours ago. :frown: I'll get to play it tomorrow with good luck.

[DasMatze]

The humor in Portal 2 is simply awesome. I played an hour and I'm still laughing about the jokes with the primitive tribes and chell's weight.

But I'm sad that Gabe said "G A B E N at Valvesoftware dot com" instead of "Gabe N" in the commentary this time. :saddowns:

[Robber]

THREE TO FIVE DAYS!!! I can't take it

I will surely miss Gay Ben...

[Sgt. Napalm]

Can anyone else here with an Intel 965 Express Chipset family, 3GB RAM, and a dual core CPU @ 2.00 GHz or something similar tell me how well this runs? I'm afraid to buy it because I can't run L4D2, but I have people telling me this runs better than L4D2 and I should go for it.

Just looked at my delivery and it says it should get here on the 26th...

:smithicide:

[woidoi]

my pc is still not working, EXACTLY when portal 2 comes out, EXACTLY when I have no school :smith:

I hate my PC so much, I'm busy getting a new one, then, I'll start smacking into this one with a hammer (after getting the things which are still okay out of it, and getting some files of it)
:byodood:

[Alvaldi]

Ugh, I'm stuck on this one level.
No clue what to do.

[Seiteki]

[QUOTE=Alvaldi;29293933]Ugh, I'm stuck on this one level.

I'm stuck as well. It's probably because it's nearly 5 am and I should be asleep.

[LonelyTimeLord]

exactly 3 hours after update started... i am at 77%..... *sigh*

[GmanIsJoker]

[QUOTE=Alvaldi;29293933]Ugh, I'm stuck on this one level.

Tell me what level. I'm at the third Repulsion Gel test in the old [sp]Aperture Science lab[/sp].

[Alvaldi]

What level are you stuck on?

[elevator13]

If you haven't already, I seriously encourage you all to do co-op. I played with this random guy for 5 hours and we had a blast

At one point, a puzzle required us [sp]to jump from 2 side platforms to a middle platform. However our momentum caused each of us to overshoot exactly onto the other side. The other guy came up with the idea of both going at once, causing us to collide mid-air and landing on the desired platform. It was bro and we did the high-five animation afterwards[/sp]

[QUOTE=GmanIsJoker;29293954]Tell me what level. I'm at the third Repulsion Gel test in the old [sp]Aperture Science lab[/sp].[/QUOTE]

[sp]A little past Conversion Gel being used, so a lil farther.[/sp]
I can help if you need any

[Seiteki]

[QUOTE=Alvaldi;29293956]What level are you stuck on?[/QUOTE]

Uh. I'm not sure exactly. [sp]There were a few turrets on a little ledge that I knocked off with the blue gel.[/sp]
