[QUOTE=genkaz92;43969006]More like the fact that Source just has the completely wrong sense of movement or ambiance in order for it to be a good horror engine. It creates a sense of fluid energetic elegance instead of creating a feeling of clumsy dread, for example.
GoldSrc turned out to be a pretty reasonable horror engine because of how abstract it can be. [/QUOTE]
generally speaking if you wanted to you could change player physics and how walking controls.
[QUOTE=endorphinsam;43969065]generally speaking if you wanted to you could change player physics and how walking controls.[/QUOTE]
It kind of extends beyond just that.
Wasn't there some source mod in development about Silent Hill?
That has potential, and so does Source, but you guys are right, in order to get some real horror, you need to [i]slow the game the fuck down.[/i]
Any engine with bunnyhopping potential is going to have problems.
Then again, I wonder if you could create true terror with bunnyhopping ghosts...
[QUOTE=megafat;43968970]Well, that fucking sucks.
The tools are pretty scary though.
My main issue of most of the scary mods for Half-Life 1 is that half of them ended up blurring together for me. There's only so many scary hospitals and apartments that you can do before it's annoying. The only ones that stand out to me are Paranoia and Cry of Fear.[/QUOTE]
Paranoia has to be my favorite horror mod, since it is more than just getting scared by freaky creatures. You get to shoot people in the face too. Also, that STALKERish atmosphere is pretty nice.
[QUOTE=genkaz92;43969178]It kind of extends beyond just that.[/QUOTE]
No it doesn't.
Look at the Source game Titanfall, its movement doesn't look like Source at all. I'm pretty sure rumpel, with enough effort, could change the movement to be more clunky and horror-like.

Yeah and the guys making titanfall are game devs that are literally paid to develop games and have been in the industry for over a decade, not to mention working on other variations of the same engine for over a decade. Rumpel is none of those things.

Also not to mention that the Titanfall dudes had access to the actual insides of the Source engine instead of just its outer elements.

From what i remember, they removed the jumping from it, so no bunnyhopping problems.
So this has probably already been posted because I'm slow, but I just found out about this;
[video=youtube;swC-ajfMdRg]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swC-ajfMdRg[/video]
It's a horror game that's currently being made where you play as a two year old. Looks cool so far! There's even an early Alpha build available for testing purposes.

One has to wonder how far those devs are gonna take player death in that.
Reading the articles, they're still rather vague, but I think I know where they're going with it.
Also, hopefully it doesn't end up like Amnesia where the threat of monsters is completely nullified by a closet, or like in the first Penumbra where you could stand on top of a crate and be virtually invincible.
I wonder which of Spike and Barley will be at the controls, if they do end up playing it.

Don't forget you could totally outrun the ones in Black Plague. Like, zip right by them in the hallway, later nerd.

Oh man when they both cracked up when they realized how goofy the monster's walking animation looked like.
Even Spike completely forgot the feelings of horror he was experiencing for a couple seconds.

That is one of my favorite things about Spike and Barley, they always laugh at horror stuff even while they are scared at the same time.

Oh yeah, that:

[quote=Rumpel]First of all, the "high-res" models of Simon and David looks terrible. I don't want people to mix it up with the actual models
Second, for some reason people find immature posing of models very funny, which is just retarded
Third of all, if you can take Dr.Breen or G-man seriously after all this G-mod buttfuck, you must have autism
Fourth:
This is what happened with the "outstanding" posing you started making:
*Insert joke poses with silly faces and stretchy limbs here*
Oh yeah, it's really funny. No seriously, this is a bad way to ruin the atmosphere of a game, and I don't want to see it here.[/quote]

From personal experience I'd say there's only one person here who might have autism, or at least acts like they do.

Never knew the GotR guy was an ass, it sucks when people that make cool things turn out to be a dick. Like the Brutal Doom guy.

Are you talking about the guy who made the Simon and David ragdolls? They were made Half-Dead, he's a FP'er.

well the GotR guy was cool for a while but someone really jokingly made fun of him one day and he flipped the fuck out, got banned for flaming them, complained a bunch on his blog about tyrannical russian type style bullshit and never set foot on facepunch ever again. and then it turned out that he was like forty years old as well. what a nerd

It was the more random freakout ever, he went from sorta civil to shit-throwing-monkey in about fifteen minutes.
And is now somehow the community manager for Volition or something.

If you can easily distinguish the context of situations and understand when something is joking and when it's serious, you have autism?
Um, okay.
Just like how every actor ever can only play the first role they ever played, right?
