Valve Confirms Half-Life 3 Development via User Picker - Polidicks

[QUOTE=CrumbleShake;42377344]I thought Kelly Bailey didn't work at Valve anymore. Why's he on the list?[/QUOTE] He just doesn't work exclusively for valve anymore

I'm sure valve can spare 100 people from the TF2 Hat team

[QUOTE=geogzm;42377310]I'm not excited anymore :([/QUOTE] Yeah you say that now but when you first download it and play it, you'll be shitting yours pants with excitement.

[QUOTE=Xmeagol;42377875]I'm sure valve can spare 100 people from the TF2 Hat team[/QUOTE] Aren't the hats, by now, all made by fans?

[QUOTE=Holylucifer6;42377957][url]http://store.stearnpowered.com/app/246720/[/url] ?[/QUOTE] please stop

Kerning strikes again.

Yeah not really hyped or bothered about this until we see some actual footage or engine material

You know when it does finally come out i'm really interested in the story of why it took so long, clearly development has been problematic.

Something like that "Final Hours of Portal 2" thing for Half-Life 3 would certainly be very interesting.

[QUOTE=geogzm;42377310]I'm not excited anymore :([/QUOTE] Okay..? Were you ever excited about Half-life at all?

What if this means they just started working on hl3 :((

Yeah just another "Half-Life 3" Rumor about as meaningless as the rest of them. Next I'm expecting Valve leaks HL3 via mistakenly sending SMS to the wrong guy or Valve leaks HL3 via toast shaped like Gordon Freeman or Valve leaks HL3 by sueing people for talking about HL3. It just get old. There needs to be a sticky that says; "No more HL3 news unless you have hardcore evidence".

[QUOTE=Xmeagol;42377875]I'm sure valve can spare 100 people from the TF2 Hat team[/QUOTE] there's like 10 people on tf2 right now.

Half-Life 3 + Half-Life 1 = Half-Life 4 - Half-Life 2 = Half-Life 2 + Half-Life 1 = Half-Life 3. Half-Life 3 confirmed.

[QUOTE=cra0kalo;42378023]Yeah not really hyped or bothered about this until we see some actual footage or engine material[/QUOTE] This. Hope they have changed the way the game progresses through levels, something about the HL2 method annoyed me.. Maybe due to how they came out of no where, who knows. :suicide:

[QUOTE=maximizer39v2;42378383]Half-Life 3 + Half-Life 1 = Half-Life 4 - Half-Life 2 = Half-Life 2 + Half-Life 1 = Half-Life 3. Half-Life 3 confirmed.[/QUOTE] I was hoping that the fact that Half Life 3 is for certain undeniably confirmed would make the end of these ridiculous "Half Life 3 confirmed" jokes but I guess I was wrong.

Here's the link for the EU's patent office: [URL="http://oami.europa.eu/CTMOnline/RequestManager/en_DetailCTM_NoReg#"]http://oami.europa.eu/CTMOnline/RequestManager/en_DetailCTM_NoReg# [/URL] Just search "Half-Life", should be top result

wow

I'm not excited, but if this is really what they're working on, I'm expecting the last remaining bit of HL2 (Ep3) to be merged into the project. witch is disappointing if true.

[QUOTE=Grabigel;42377503]I don't understand this considering that we have no idea what is going to happen. Valve have said jack shit on the game even being made so how would anyone actually have any hype? It's all going to be new stuff that we haven't even seen and a story in which we won't know the ending until it comes. It's going to be awesome![/QUOTE] Within in your own post, you ask how could there be hype, and then proceed to hype yourself up. Valve doesn't need to do anything to hype up HL3 because people hype themselves up over nothing.

[QUOTE=Flubbman;42377474]Morasky's style is quite different from the "theme" of Half-Life, so maybe they felt they had to get Bailey back to get it right.[/QUOTE] Morasky could easily do the job just as well. The P2 and L4D soundtracks are much better Imo than the stuff bailey wrote for half life

[QUOTE=imnotryan;42378564]wow[/QUOTE] 1 post since 2006. I'd think you'd be more profound with your first words after so much time. On Topic: It would surprise me if Valve weren't working on HL3 to some capacity for a while now. Valve will release HL3 (if it's ever released) on consoles in addition to PC, and it's likely they needed next-gen hardware to take full advantage of Source2's tech. I'm optimistic. Valve hasn't lead me astray yet, and I doubt they will now.

I made a diff between the current and previous leaks' groups if anyone is interested: [url]http://www.diffchecker.com/pxohyq73[/url]

[QUOTE=LoLWaT?;42377361]Yeah... Kelly Bailey hasn't worked at Valve for some time now. Can't imagine why his name would be on that list.[/QUOTE] When I wrote an email to Mike Morasky he said, that he would like to work with him again, when it comes to a new Half Life game.

[QUOTE=CrumbleShake;42377344]I thought Kelly Bailey didn't work at Valve anymore. Why's he on the list?[/QUOTE] I can see someone on the list who I know hasn't worked there for a few years, it's definitely not just active employees.

[QUOTE=OluapPlayer;42378112]Something like that "Final Hours of Portal 2" thing for Half-Life 3 would certainly be very interesting.[/QUOTE] a sequel book to Raising the Bar....Delaying the Bar

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/SEDyOoG.png[/IMG] morasky said this to me on june edit: the undisclosed project he is talking about is l4d3

Maybe this is like Operation Mincemeat, they're making us think they are working on HL3 but it's all a deception and they're actually working on a TF2 hat update.

This is obviously a codeword for Ricochet 2
