Congrats garry on the 1 million copies :D
[QUOTE=Amplar;31387303]i think you just need to become the better welder. increase weights, build smart. Have a center heavy base prop and weld everything to it.[/QUOTE] Well yeah you can do that but still it would be nice not to have to do that.
I hope for -New main menu. -New and slimmer Q menu. -Better weld. -Multiplayer toybox -A anti 12-year-old-kid-on-microphone filter for the in-game voice chat. Go Garry, Go!
Garry mentioned in the backgrounds thread that he wanted examples of "What was possible in the game." This got me thinking that he's expecting an influx of new players. Potentially going F2P?
[QUOTE=Ray-The-Sun;31393577]Potentially going F2P?[/QUOTE] I think that's probably unlikely, considering how hostile the community is regarding people who steal the game and how Garry has never indicated anything of the sort and has probably at some point stated he wouldn't give it away for free. I think the actual update will be different than what anyone's suggested since most stuff (different hud, etc) is already doable with the addon system. I'm hoping for multiplayer toybox myself. The logistics of how that's doable will be interesting to say the least.
WellMost of these suggestions are shit. I have to agree with karbine\amplar that we should focus on stability and performance rather than "wearable items"don't we have something called PAC anywho?[editline]28th July 2011[/editline]In my opinion, queryphys was potentially the answer to just about all building problems, but it was shot down and neglected. I just want to know a reason why this was above anything as well. I just want it to be able to work.
Prepare Your ANUS!!!!!
[QUOTE=X6ZioN6X;31387651]Or just use parenting.[/QUOTE] parenting is only for detail props such as a body of a car, i'm guessing he meant something structural.
Im thinking this. New menu Ladder tool? Multiplayer server starts. Achievement hats/skins? Portal 2...
Garry should make the ultimate gamemode, and update the achievements and add in more tools like rope etc etc
[QUOTE=OneFourth;31390842]I am from the states and use chrome.[/QUOTE] I am from the only good country and don't use chrome.
[QUOTE=SpyWolf;31404834]Im thinking this. New menu Ladder tool? Multiplayer server starts. Achievement hats/skins? Portal 2...[/QUOTE] I like the ladder idea, I personally wouldn't use it( I don't build bases/ play RP), even still ladders would be useful i would imagine.
[QUOTE=PredatorKing;31404988]I am from the only good country and don't use chrome.[/QUOTE] I don't use Chrome either - I use RockMelt :smile: On topic, I think the Big Update will be something unexpected.
I'm from space and I use chrome :v: Anyway, ontopic, I think we'll get a little more than were discussing. Garry is being rather secretive about it [editline].[/editline] Come on guys I almost have one of each rating! Just a few more!
I hope Gmod is switched to the Portal 2 engine. :O
[QUOTE=Soundtoxin;31412374]I hope Gmod is switched to the Portal 2 engine. :O[/QUOTE] Won't. As said many times previously, P2's engine is a branch, not a stem.
[IMG]http://gyazo.com/9c47ec7d10441d23f64e75c095e73854.png[/IMG] Pic so you can imagine it. Basically all Valve's new games would be dead end for Gmod as explained previously ITT. Also don't mind TF2 there, because whoever made the picture forgot it doesn't have branch of its own, but uses the shares the same engine with other MP games like CS:S, DOD:S and HL2:DM.
[QUOTE=Ray-The-Sun;31412427]Won't. As said many times previously, P2's engine is a branch, not a stem.[/QUOTE] Said where? Not in this thread.
[QUOTE=Soundtoxin;31413099]Said where? Not in this thread.[/QUOTE] Yes in this thread. [QUOTE=Fatman55;31386805]For the people wondering this, the reason why Garry hasn't done this or like how he hasn't just updated to the L4D2 engine is because these engine versions branch off of the main engine and are pretty much dead ends. So if Garry updated the engine to the Portal 2 Engine when Half Life 3 came around he wouldn't be able to update to the HL3 Engine or any other newer versions.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Ray-The-Sun;31413129]Yes in this thread.[/QUOTE] I read every post wtf.
[QUOTE=Osku1234;31363619][img]http://www.constructivenews.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/image2.png[/img][/QUOTE] My mind. It is full of billions and billions of fuck.
We won't move to Portal 2/L4D2 engine. Valve are slowly moving features from those engines into the current branch.
If I remember right winch tool was pretty messed up so I hope garry fixes this.
Well some1 posted a branch (go find it in this thread) and it will solve your answers for portal 2
[QUOTE=SpyWolf;31415013]Well some1 posted a branch (go find it in this thread) and it will solve your answers for portal 2[/QUOTE] I'm sorry what?
The portal 2 engine...
Toybox in multiplayer?
i wouldnt mind seeing some more post processing effects like object-based-motion-blur and hopefully better optimization for mass physics. but that is probably not going to happen
i think maybes its an ULTIMATE ADDON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think the most accurate way to guess what's going to be in this is to read over what Garry's thoughts are. On his blog, he mentioned that an upcoming update was going to be for him, because that hadn't been done in a while. It's possible there's a lot of Garry's thought for the future going into this update, so things that "everyone" wants may not be included or considered.
