brb playing with dev. commentary
[QUOTE=angelangel;29294303]brb playing with dev. commentary[/QUOTE] too bad there's only 1 or 2 commentary nodes every 2 chambers
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emDqJOKPnqc[/media] Fuck i love Stephen Merchant
Anyone who has played with commentary, are there many nodes? Since people are saying that they are few.
Can anyone help me here. Totally stuck on this chamber, keep getting killed by these turrets, and I can't figure out how to get rid of them. I forget what number. But I cannot for the life of me figure out what to do. Here's a picture of the chamber for those who may help (I'm pretty sure I'm far in, so could be spoilers to some).

Someone should make a lets play
Done. Of course, now I need to go through for the achievements, but I'm done.
Wow, wow, wow. Just beat the game and, just wow. Literally everything about the game was fucking amazing. The graphical enhancements to the engine really made a huge difference, namely in terms of the lighting and shading. Storyline was full of twists that I legitimately hadn't seen coming [sp]Though when I plugged Wheatley in I knew shit would hit the fan[/sp]. Mapping was beautiful, fluid and really interesting, all while telling a story as you advanced through the levels. I feel like Portal, in comparison to Portal 2, is now just a tech demo. Portal 2 brings so much more gameplay, story, great writing and creativity to the table that the fact Portal grabbed my attention before almost seems like a miracle. The best part was the hilarious writing, Wheatley was constantly hilarious and a great character with lots of personality, while GLaDOS was witty, and more well developed as a character this time around. I think the most impressive part of the game though was the dynamic music that Chet had talked about briefly in an interview. Like Chet said, you basically build the music in the level as you complete stages of the puzzle, and by the time you walk through the sliding doors at the end of the puzzle, you almost feel bad that you have to leave the symphony you created behind. All in all, the game is fucking amazing, and that's without me even playing the co-op. Also, for people looking forward to mapping, we still have a brand new SDK to look forward to :buddy: One quick note: [sp]To the guy that posted the FlameHaus videos and said it was just Valve trolling, fuck you.[/sp]

Here's how: Portal over to the place where the gel comes, use the excursion funnel right below it so that it would flow towards the entrance. Press the button and have it flow into the funnel. Once the gel reaches you, make it fall so that you get gel right in front of you. This is needed so you can jump up into the funnel later. Put the funnel back and get gel into it again, jump up into the funnel. Once you reach the other side, step on the button so that the gel goes the other way again. Once it's through the portal, hop of the button and pop a portal so that the funnel goes above the turrets. Once the gel is completely over all the turrets, pop another portal somewhere so that it falls. [/sp]
[QUOTE=Seiteki;29294378][sp]Use the lift to drop blue gel on them.[/sp][/QUOTE] Ahh, thanks! I think I see how to do it now!

Now put your exit portal (i.e. the portal that the gel will come out of) on one of the panels above the turrets, let the gel float through and get above them, then remove the funnel and they will all be coated in the gel, bouncing them away.[/sp]
Wow ninjas!
so uh, anyone have a guide to chamber 11 in chapter 8? i cannot solve it
[QUOTE=Assburgers;29293123]Have fun decrypting the files then downloading the update then having it freeze on installation[/QUOTE] Yeah the decryption was a bitch. Watched George Carlin show in the mean while, great laugh and I had preloaded the whole thing so installation wasn't a problem It ran at ease, and oh man is it a game of beauty!
[QUOTE=Seiteki;29294374]Done. Of course, now I need to go through for the achievements, but I'm done.[/QUOTE] How long was that?
[QUOTE=calle7112;29294388]ah fuck me I cant get portal 2, I'm poor :/[/QUOTE] Don't feel bad, neither can I.
Holy fucking shit. This is truly the best game done by Valve. I fucking love the new menu style, and no more annoying creaking sound for pressing the use key (even though that was pretty iconic :v:) Now I'm stuck at test chamber 17, in chapter 3 though. I know what I have to do but... I can't get it done. Any tips?
How many chapters are there in the game?
I liked how the little devices would play a rythm to go along with the background music when activated also
planning on getting the money to buy this by selling old records on ebay good plan y/n
I'm really wanting the atlas model from Portal 2 right now. Would just pasting the files into gmod work or is there more to it?
[QUOTE=geogzm;29294471]planning on getting the money to buy this by selling old records on ebay good plan y/n[/QUOTE] depends how much the records are worth/whether you want to give them away for the portal 2 experience
wait, people already beat the game?! how long is it
[QUOTE=The very best;29294487]wait, people already beat the game?! how long is it[/QUOTE] Around 5 hours or so.
[QUOTE=The very best;29294487]wait, people already beat the game?! how long is it[/QUOTE] This. I was under the impression it would take 8/9 hours? [B]Edit:[/B] Ninja'd and disappointed.
[QUOTE=KillerPopcorn;29294443]How long was that?[/QUOTE] Steam says I only have 2 hours logged, but it was at least 4.
Really?! that's it? what about all the talk it'll be "As long as hl2"
