Test ignore
TBH I think hl3 would be based on the new engine they have in development, it would make more sense since Source is beginning to show its age a bit, so it probably wouldn't be out any time soon, not to mention the other two were on different engines (new at their time). The only logical next step for HL in the current engine would probably be Episode 3. This is just my own speculation, I'll leave it to everyone else to argue what comes next, even though clearly nobody really knows [QUOTE=LarparNar;37249657]My point is that nothing is stopping Valve from making an full game and just [I][U][B]calling it[/B][/U][/I] Episode 3. I don't see why what they call it matters so goddamn much to how they make it.[/QUOTE] Kinda like Blue Shift and OpFor, they were both HL1 canon yet OF was quite considerably longer (i know they were all in the same timeframe but still)
[QUOTE=milkandcooki;37244294]Why are people rating this disagree? [img]http://i.imgur.com/Ykii2.jpg[/img] Valve has done some pretty shit box art.[/QUOTE] It's a ww2 game though and for that it's fine, honestly most WWII games that are team based multiplayer usually half box arts like that, the ones that are more creative are usually really just singleplayer focuses. So if I saw that box I would think I'm getting multilpayer team based shooter where I play on both the allies and the axis. So in this case it works perfectly :v: though your right in it doesn't look amazing compared to others it works in telling gamers what it is.

After all of these years, I honestly can't care all that much about it anymore. When it comes out, I'll be glad, but I'll never be the same 13-year-old who squeals excitedly when an anticipated game is released.
[QUOTE=BlueYoshi;37249784]They are working on Source2 btw[/QUOTE] Yeah, I mentioned it in words 10-15
If they do announce HL3, then it would probably be on Source 2 because if they want to wow everyone like HL1 and 2 then it would make perfect sense.
[QUOTE=Coffee;37249482]Calling it Half Life 3 would neglect previous naming conventions of Half-Life games. [B]Half-Life 1 Story Arc[/B] Half-Life 1 Half-Life 1: Opposing Force Half-Life 1: Blue Shift Half-Life 1: Decay [B]Half-Life 2 Story Arc[/B] Half-Life 2 Half-Life 2: Episode 1 Half-Life 2: Episode 2 Half-Life 2: Episode 3 The Half-Life 3 story arc would be separate to the Half-Life 2 story arc. If you were to call Episode 3 Half-Life 3 instead, you would be doing something rather illogical.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Bomimo;37234756]Ok really. You kids have just GOTTA find something better to berate us about than these fucking petitesses. Don't be a goddamn pedantic. It's more of a joke to us after all these years with this shit and you come across as some juvenile boy. How is it going to make a difference what it's called? Really? There are a lot of things to argue, related to HL3, but this really is the stupidest one. You need to start leaving the basement and have more existential arguments. Holy Gordon Freeman in a video-game! This is retardedly unimportant...[/QUOTE] Shut up...
[QUOTE=Zee Captain;37228551]I actually believe that it is time. I never felt this way but I can feel it. Lets have a bet. I will personally get my self permaban if Half Life 3 is NOT announced at Gamescon. I trust you gabe.[/QUOTE] rip
I love that there are currently 3 threads all centred on this and two of them are supposed to be source 2 related. It's kinda fascinating to observe that it's actually only a small minority that cross between all 3 threads, while everyone else seem oblivious to their existence. One fascinating thing is when content/new discoveries are imported/exported between them and the following discussion is a ghost of what just happened in another thread. It's like little parallel worlds, except not at all.
Zee Captain is an amazing troll. All of you riled up. Watch what happens when they go 'oh I never said it had to be this Gamescon' [editline]16th August 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=jamie1130;37228648]Valve said that Source Film Maker wasn't going to be the best thing they do this year and as long as it isn't this new community stuff. It could be HL3. I'm calling it.[/QUOTE] Linux.
[QUOTE=Jookia;37250115]Zee Captain is an amazing troll. All of you riled up.

And you seem to be assuming that people are getting excited just because Zee Captain said it would be at Gamescom.

Not gamescon, gamescom. Huge difference, as great as gamescom might be this year, it will never be as good as gamescon(games convention)
[QUOTE=LarparNar;37250182]Yeah he'll say that and then the mods will ban him anyway.[/QUOTE] Obviously, but he'll think he won and tricked everybody. [QUOTE=LarparNar;37250182]And you seem to be assuming that people are getting excited just because Zee Captain said it would be at Gamescon.[/QUOTE] No, obviously this is one big advertisement for Gamescon. But people are taking Zee Captain seriously.
I don't care about gamescom or gamescon. I'm looking forward to gamecon and games.com
[QUOTE=Jookia;37250196]No, obviously this is one big advertisement for Gamescon. But people are taking Zee Captain seriously.[/QUOTE] They are? [sub]Also typo, I meant to write gamescom, not gamescon.[/sub]
[QUOTE=danharibo;37250188]Big picture mode, Greenlight, MvM.[/QUOTE] Greenlight has been on Desura for a while, MvM is just an expansion, big picture mode is basically a TV as a screen.
[QUOTE=Jookia;37250238]Greenlight has been on Desura for a while, MvM is just an expansion, big picture mode is basically a TV as a screen.[/QUOTE] Oh ok I guess we can stop caring and Valve can stop working on all those now.
[QUOTE=Jookia;37250238]Greenlight has been on Desura for a while, MvM is just an expansion, big picture mode is basically a TV as a screen.[/QUOTE] They also support your statement that Valve's big thing this year isn't Half Life 3.

The least you can do is try to shake it up a bit, but you just went for the same rebuttal as everyone did before you. You do understand how Funny quips work, right? They get worn out thin when you violently rape them for years straight...
