That's predominantly an issue with the communities you play with. I play on a server where trading ads are banned. And as for the art style, I barely even notice the hats these days.
@Fatman: again, that's just an issue of who you play with. If you choose to play with a 12-year-old, you have no one to blame but yourself.

The problem is, I wouldn't want to play the game and have to play with another person.
Also if you buy the game about 4 days after release you pretty much have to play with somebody who's played it and will just rush through it.
[QUOTE=Im Crimson;29429094]I don't see any problem with a player-controllable, talking, Alyx.[/QUOTE]
I do, the Left 4 Dead characters were developed for a game who's entire premise is 4 player co-op. Alyx wasn't, and even Valve boasts about how much better they're getting at making Alyx seem like a real person.
To throw her into co-op and making her human controlled, I think it would be a very bad idea.
i don't mind this i bet valve found half-life's story boring
i don't blame them because i found it boring too, it'd be more fun dicking around in hl's story with a friend than to play it

Why would they make a game that they themselves find boring?
knowing valve, they'll probably preserve the half-life universe but It'll be interesting how they implement a microtransaction system into it.
It would be nice to see Episode 3 with a coop function
but no hats please
[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;29435830]

Not possible hl has too great potential for hats. Combine masks, rebel headgear and all kinds of other hats. Maybe even a crowbar hat
Or the famous boot
[QUOTE=Jaehead;29432807]that would work well as a multiplayer mode
something like this should not serve as a game's main campaign imo[/QUOTE]
Obviously. Maybe make it some sort of extra, non-canon campaign?
[QUOTE=johan_sm;29435867]Not possible hl has too great potential for hats. Combine masks, rebel headgear and all kinds of other hats. Maybe even a crowbar hat

Exactly, they could make hats that actually fit with the style of the game, hell, why not introduce some kind of comprehensive character customization system like Brink has?
So we should expect just a bunch of DLC for Porta 2/ L4D(2) / TF2
and wait for their new stuff that is Multiplayer only (DOTA 2).
And "maybe" see EP3.
[QUOTE=aydin690;29425155]Singleplayer games have no replayability.[/QUOTE]
I've beaten Portal 2 4 times now.
What you talkin bout.
Well, fuck.
[QUOTE=Fatman55;29434190]That means that there will be no EP3 singleplayer, and nothing ruins a game more than some idiot running ahead, dying and then screaming over a microphone in a nasal voice at you for not saving him.[/QUOTE]
You knee jerk so hard I bet you hit yourself in the head and knocked all the sense out of yourself
How the fuck can you people be so fucking reactionary to something you don't even fucking understand

Wow, good factual opinion there, no way anyone can feel any different than you.
Portal 2 is pretty much a perfect game so I trust Valve to deliver a solid game regardless of the amount of players.
When they deliver is another matter entirely.

You could make it so your game is only open to your steam friends. Your friends might be really stupid though so I dunno.

[QUOTE=Zeddy;29427167]Ohh and just as a side rant: Shut the fuck up about "Hat Fortress 2." Just shut the fuck up. You have exactly [B]zero valid arguments[/B].

I swear that few things make me more irritated than the people who bitch about hats in Team Fortress 2. But joyous days that is no longer the case. Now they bitch about Team Fortress 2 and Portal 2.[/QUOTE]
DON'T BITCH ABOUT ANYTHING JUST DEAL WITH IT HATS ARE AWESOME VALVE IS AWESOME FUCK YOU
you're the reason TF2 is a miss match of disjointed unfitting shit with half arsed stats and a prime example of how to fuck up your art style
[QUOTE=ThePutty;29438275]DON'T BITCH ABOUT ANYTHING JUST DEAL WITH IT HATS ARE AWESOME VALVE IS AWESOME FUCK YOU[/QUOTE]
But really, what do hats take away from TF2? My TF2 experience doesn't feel lessened by there being an option I have no need to partake in.
Oh, right, it doesn't take shit away.
Also all the trading bullshit has died down so it's usually one person going "hey I have x anyone want to trade for it?".
[editline]26th April 2011[/editline]
at least in my experience. Maybe someone has made a server made exclusively to trade that I am not aware of.

you know, the one thing that made TF2 unique, now it's basically RANDUMB MEDIEVAL MODE!!! LOLLLL

it really depends on the server you go to
but frankly, seeing so many reactionary posts in this thread really makes me feel like gamers can't even take a second to think before they start screaming.
What are you talking the art style is all around you
Zero Punctuation says it perfectly: I don't want a multiplayer experience where I can't physically smack the idiot I'm playing with beside me.
I don't want to play co-op with most of the people I find on the internet, I want a single player campaign where I can sit back and enjoy the show, not be barked at or angered at some idiot I'm playing with.

Oh yeah that's right the game looks like total shit now and doesn't make any sense
oh wait, that's just your opinion about how SOME people CHOOSE to play.
HOW THE FUCK IS CHOICE BAD
Gamers will even bitch about being given fucking CHOICES now adays.

buh
why don't you go make a classic server where no hats are allowed and none of the craftable weapons are allowed
