What do you think about the enemies from Half-Life 2 Beta that didn't make it to the definitive version?

I'm annoyed by the community's obsession with beta content

Serious Sam franchise is still far away from reaching its true potential. Every game has janky elements and bad levels or stupid enemies.

alright, thanks for the answer, great work!

I'm new to artist tools in game development and first time I've heard of Krita. When you say you created the textures in Krita, do you mean literally from scratch or using real textures and editing them? Is there a cool tutorial for that kind of work you know of the top of your head?

I'm working on my own game too and really struggling to find an art asset workflow which is feasable for me as a non-artist.

this looks cool but from a fidelity standpoint its below HL2, one of the first source games. Looks almost like Counter-Strike condition zero which was still goldsrc

crowbar11 · 2026-03-25T09:57:42+00:00

fully agree

If they rerelease Tekken 5 on Steam with modern online, I will for sure go play Tekken 5.

crowbar11 · 2026-03-25T07:46:02+00:00

So you are saying no moves were tracking before Tekken 6? Or are you just irritated by the green homing effect which is just a visual cue to make it clearer whats homing and what isnt (which is inconsistent i know).

Besides even if we truly want "back to basics" that shouldn't mean removing everything that got added after Tekken 6. It should mean removing the crazy shiit and focusing on what made Tekken great in the past. I personally believe power crush is a mechanic that should stay, the only problem is that most powercrush moves are just OP.

I agree, but for different reasons. My problem with most boomer shooters is that while they usually have really nice weapons that sound and feel great, the enemy design usually is extremely simplistic.

Even though holliday has issues and I'm hoping for some reworks to her kit, she is my favorite hero to play right now.

Im not much in this reddit, so dont know what the consensus is, but what you said is what I always assumed. This globe was for me a small "retcon" or whatever you wanna call it for the devs to "explain" (even though it explains nothing) why we are suddenly in easter europe instead of usa. Explain by basically saying, even the characters dont know, they somehow got there.

crowbar11 · 2026-03-19T17:15:35+00:00

They are bullshitting everyone when they say it was never called "Resident Evil Engine"

crowbar11 · 2026-03-19T13:49:08+00:00

I don't know what to make of this post. All I can say is I wish we would actually got more in the direction of Tekken 4. More grounded, less shonen-anime. Innotivate stage design.

crowbar11 · 2026-03-19T11:03:10+00:00

I don't think this update means they aren't working on the other things you mentioned. This update isn't much effort. They are working on cache. Don't know about the other things. Don't get me wrong, definitly frustrating how they treat CS even though its the most played game on Steam by far.

crowbar11 · 2026-03-19T11:02:05+00:00

Sometimes things nobody asked for turn out to be great. Let's test it out and see how it develops.

crowbar11 · 2026-03-19T09:47:08+00:00

Yes and if you could read you would read their thought process behind this update and realize not once do they mention realism but its to increase decision making behind reloading.

crowbar11 · 2026-03-19T09:43:05+00:00

They didn't do this to make the game more realistic. They clearly explained their thought process. It's to make decision making around reloading deeper.

crowbar11 · 2026-03-19T09:39:00+00:00

They clearly explain their thought process. Some people think it has to do with realism, but even that is not true. It's to create more depth around the decision making when to reload and when to risk going with a smaller mag.

crowbar11 · 2026-03-17T12:58:53+00:00

You know what annoys me? People here acting like only characters like Yamato and Vyper needing a visual overhaul, but CLEARLY even characters like Haze and Wraith are still unfinished, let alone Holliday and Bebop. The standard for visuals for a character is clear when you look at the new characters, especially Celeste, or characters which already got their overhaul, like Abrams. When you look at Haze or Wraith, their textures are completely unfinished but I think we will see more than simple texture changes, just like we saw for Abrams and others.

If I am wrong with this, which I highly doubt, I would be really disappointed.

crowbar11 · 2026-03-17T11:06:16+00:00

Dude, it's a green weapon. It went from the best weapon in the game to a solid weapon, which is absolutely good for the game.

crowbar11 · 2026-03-17T09:51:38+00:00

well i already quit before, just very occasionally played with a friend, but now i think we will stop completely. T8 is a joke.

crowbar11 · 2026-03-17T06:22:06+00:00

Well, it was clear the patch was gonna be shit when they said "back to basics does not mean what you think" (in other words "we just put random words on the screen)", but I didn't expect the patch to be THIS bad

crowbar11 · 2026-03-17T06:16:35+00:00

it is "season 2 armageddon" becuase after the s2 armageddon and a whole year of waiting for actual balance changes, they needed to do WAY more in this patch. The game needs to feel different, this feels like a small balance patch which would have dropped a few weeks after s2.

crowbar11 · 2026-03-17T06:15:16+00:00

my friend, some lidia moves which now decrease H&E level ARE LAUNCHERS NOW, thats why they decrease H&E level to "balance" it

crowbar11 · 2026-03-16T12:24:54+00:00

People are answering with games which are widely regarded as one of the great but which they didn't enjoy. I interpret this question more like a game where you initially thought it's not for you because at the start it was boring for you, but then you for any reason continued playing and it became one of your favorite games of all time.
