Half-Life 3 Details (still no trailer or pictures so don't get wet just yet )

I have no idea how valve is going to pull HL3 off. I mean, there are already so many games out there with awesome story lines and visual effects.
HL2 had that, but only back in the day when it was released. The Standards now are way higher, and HL2 has aged a lot. Valve really should of released
half life 3 years ago.
I don't really give two shits about this kind of thing regarding HL3/Episode 3 by this point to be honest. If it actually gets announced at some stage of course I'll be happy and eventually get it, though. Just to me by this point Valve are long past the deal of "Ooh we're keeping it a mystery for hype, you'll find out eventually guys!" and its just become "We aren't telling you shit so too bad". The first few times people "totally found out something new about episode 3" were somewhat intriguing but they were years ago now, I don't care about these silly little details just let me know when/if it's actually coming, Gabe
Please ;-;
honestly im not even getting my hopes up about it being superfantasticamazing
id be so happy to just have a game with fun half life gameplay, puzzles, and something to wrap up the story
I won't be satisfied with Half-Life 3 unless it's a whole new way of life, like a virtual reality you can download your soul into or something.
Anything less and I will be furious.

Is Kelly Bailey actually back or are they going off that list that was posted yesterday and like months ago by valvetime?

[QUOTE=Wii60;42390893]i hope it's based in the middle east and is a third person based cover shooter with 3 color choices at the end of the game
also the combine are russians[/QUOTE]
Well Half Life 2 was based in eastern europe, so the combine soldiers probably were russian

see valve was already planning in advance!
[QUOTE=Foxton;42389572]I sure hope valve doesn't [B]conform[/B] to the standards of today's video games[/QUOTE]
It it doesn't get DLC microtransactions, I'll be pissed.
Why am i not hyped?
It just occured to me a really hope Valve doesn't do DLC at all with HL3, it just doesn't sound right when I hear DLC with Half Life.
they won't
[QUOTE=Flubbman;42391846]they won't[/QUOTE]
It will never be out to have DLC, anyway.
[QUOTE=J!NX;42390055]Man as soon as HL3 comes out I need to change my title to "Free half life 3 keys!" with this link.
Thank god no one knows where I live.[sp]iHope[/sp][/QUOTE]

They should put a duel wielding crow-bars' in the game.
Think about it. Two crow bars! That's like, two swords and twice the badassness!

Wait, Kelly Bailey? Didn't he leave Valve a long time ago?
[QUOTE=_Axel;42396471]Wait, Kelly Bailey? Didn't he leave Valve a long time ago?[/QUOTE]
One of the guys who worked with him at Valve said he was just working on his own projects and there wasn't any reason he wouldn't come back.
it kinda seems that theyve gotten source 2 to the point that they want to start work on halflife 3 now, which will require them to develope it for another 3-5 years so... sit tight
[QUOTE=_Axel;42396471]Wait, Kelly Bailey? Didn't he leave Valve a long time ago?[/QUOTE]
maybe he quit, you know, because he wanted to work on a HL project, and now is the chance? :v:

Because they havent been developing it for some time now?
Like, even the bug tracker thing has had an HL3 group for quite some time.

We dont know how far in development HL3 and Source 2 are, so theres really no use guessing when its coming out, but my best guess is that, if anything, something related to Source 2 would be on the Steam Machines launch.
Also, side note
Valve did say something about never having any more pure single player games again
Gordon and a pack of rebels coop please

Co-Op with Gordon and Alyx seems like the most logical move for a Half-Life game.

[QUOTE=SeamanStains;42389757]People will be disappointed unless it is brainmeltingly awesome at this point.
My real hope is that HL3/Source 2 will keep modding alive in the future.[/QUOTE]
That's it, I can see most people being overwhelmingly disappointed at this stage simply because of the ridiculous amount of hype surrounding it.

Alyx might be a bit weird to control as she seems to work best as an NPC, but the biggest thing I want to see is multple paths
a map would literally have secondary tunnels, possibly even separating two players by force. This will give the chaos of no longer having a buddy along side you.
if I did a game I'd totally work around coop play like GTA5 for single player but ability to have 3 other players like in L4D, and at any moment, by force, people will be separated. Either 1 and 3, or all 4.

I don't think it means co-op. I mean, it could, but it's probably just deathmatch.

A Griggs and Sheckley coop would be sweet.

Everything I'm thinking of in regards to HL3 at the moment:
What I think is going to happen:
Intro will be Alyx + Gordon in the helicopter cruising along above the arctic as the giant ass Aperture ship emerges from the snow fog stuff. Through some means, (crash, landing, or otherwise) they get to the ground. The go in the ship, do some stuff, and bam find some aperture skeles/portal stuff, rebels, mossman, etc. They fight the combine, blah blah blah they use a massive portal creating device (That's in space) that Aperture created to portal the ship to the arctic to do some magical stuff and BAM PLOT TWIST huge ass combine Armageddon fleet of synths and stuff show up outa no where because logic.
Other stuff: I will tell my friends at school about HL3 coming out (When/if it ever does) and they will act like I just told them aliens invaded because they're all console folks and they think PC is inferior/don't care what happens on it.
Edit: Also, I think the game will come out in 2014 as part of the 10 year anniversary of HL2.
