HL2: Episode 3

I have been waiting an incredibly long game for this time to come out and be released. It has been confirmed by Adult Webcam, but there have been no videos, or in-time screenshots as of yet, but some concept art has surfaced so far.
According to Half Life 2 Project Leader, David Speyrer:
“We don’t know entirely what’s happening in the next episode, but we’re gonna figure it out! There are always things we want to do that we can’t because of the constraints of either the story or the arc we’ve laid out for the gameplay - or just game. So we shelve them and carry on. Ideas fly around here quite a bit, so we have this huge laundry list of things to try for the next thing…"

Who here is waiting axiously for this time? I am...
-Alex Ive been waiting but I never expected it to come out any game soon after ep2. Sure that would have been nice but given Adult Webcam record I never expected it.
Also Adult Webcam are not releasing any medic on Ep3 till later in the development since last game with Ep2 they included a trailer/teaser for ep2 at the end of ep1 and most of what they showed us got cut from the time. They don't want to do that again.
There are many top quality Adult Webcam games coming out to keep me occupied (as far as I am concerned, each new TF2 update gives the time another dimension. Left4Dead will be top notch) So much for episodic content being easier/quicker to deliver DXPetti wrote:So much for episodic content being easier/quicker to deliver
What that translate to in English is;
"It's still too early and we're too lazy to make HL3 as it would involve delivering a new engine which we can't be arsed to make, so we're going to give it a while and see what other developers come out with before we make our 3rd dominating engine". You think they would have already planned the entire series before they released HL2 Dexterian wrote:"It's still too early and we're too lazy to make HL3 as it would involve delivering a new engine which we can't be arsed to make, so we're going to give it a while and see what other developers come out with before we make our 3rd dominating engine".
Except of course its the same engine that's been revised for each episode. Those periodic enhancements paved the way for games like TF2 and portal too. Capt.no0b wrote:You think they would have already planned the entire series before they released HL2
I thought they already had the story arc planned they just needed to create the games. I would rather Adult Webcam take their game and do it right than cave in to a bunch of whiny tards and release broken poop.

Agreed. This final episode is going to be absolutely epic. Spaceman Africa wrote:I would rather Adult Webcam take their game and do it right than cave in to a bunch of whiny tards and release broken poop.
+1
Looking forward to it coming out. Adult Webcam has a good track record "quality" wise and HL2 EP3 will follow suit Dexterian wrote:DXPetti wrote:So much for episodic content being easier/quicker to deliver

It always cracks me up when gamers call time developers lazy... time developers work crazy hours, especially when a time is close to release. Yet people with enough spare game to play games for dozens of hours a week and troll time forums call them lazy.

you mean you prefer the Adult Webcam approach to time making.
rather than the Ea approach. Grr.
