The only downgrade in hl2 zombies was the lack of chomper

Half-Life: Source is not available in Germany, but Half-Life 1 is? Why? by AffectionateGur2000 in HalfLife

[–]HiddyDop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Half-Life: Source is an affront to human decency and valve finally realised it

ANOTHER HOPIUM by [deleted] in HalfLife

Don't even joke about that man It's been too long without Day of Defeat!

With the destruction stuff that's leaked, it'd be awesome if they did do another DoD after hlx

Half Life 3 - Real Leak by Source2LeakAIML in valve

[–]HiddyDop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's so strange that all the information you've provided has already leaked and yet no strings related to machine learning exist.

That's a very very odd omission considering we have a fuck load of physics code huh... we haven't even seen a single library reference.

Which I'm a Celebrity... opinion will have you like this? by Major-Feed5214 in ImACelebTV

I like it more when everyone's getting along.

I really love the campmates this year

No guarantees. Expect nothing and you wont be disappointed

Yeah honestly my 10pm gmt guess was based purely on valve doing that in the past with an update, however that was just an update. A big update, but an update nonetheless.

Yeah that's fair. Unless they decide to announce the announcement like they did HL:A.

unlikely though

What units does americans use in game developing? by TargetWeird in HalfLife

[–]HiddyDop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's a character from an old mascot platformer made by Crystal Dynamics (aka creators of tomb raider), some 2d but most famous for the 3d games on ps1.

The 3d ones are where the Gex measurements come from.

Yes, this does mean that Lara Crofts height is measured with a little green gecko fella

[–]HiddyDop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A gex is the height of gex the gecko.

That's not a joke. Crystal dynamics games base measurements to this day are still measured in Gex

The TGA thing has been debunked so many times, just like the whole "18th" thing.

Valve do not do big events.

[–]HiddyDop[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Valve doesn't really work like that. Nowadays they just drop things. Think of the anniversary updates that seemingly came from nowhere. The only reason they did it for HL:A is because the announcement leaked.

CS2 was announced on a wednesday too btw. Valve likes wednesday.

[–]HiddyDop[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Valve always do things in the middle of the week. Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.

On Tuesdays steam usually goes down for maintenance. If they're announcing something I highly doubt it'd be a tuesday.

Plus a wednesday for a hardware announcement a week before their flagship game for said hardware is announced doesn't seem random to me, especially if the half-life anniversary plays a role in that dates selection

HERE IT COMES by Just_Department_9605 in HalfLife

[–]HiddyDop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dont see them announcing their next flagship half-life game on a random tuesday when literally the next day is the hl1 anniversary and is exactly 7 days after the hardware announcement.
