finally started playing half life 2 never played it before but people kept talking about it so i decided to give it a go it's really good and it looks nice water especially been experimenting with it shooting it grenades nice splashes and all it looks good i like it now on this hovercraft opens up a bit lots of water so i'm glad definitely gonna keep playing because i really like it so far thanks for recommending

You're welcome

Kind of sucks that they killed off Eli Vance

hl2 is a fun game really, it just works well, runs well, and looks well.
It's personally one of my favorite games user.
The water hazard part is a bit too long, but you'll enjoy it.

Have fun
you're welcome

who's he have only run into a woman scientist and barney and that's i think

nice water in this game

Full stops and commas exist for a reason, you know.

sorry i can't help it not my native language isn't english

...

>No punctuation at all

That hurt to read. But yeah HL2 is pretty good. After you finish the core game trudge through Ep1 and then enjoy the Ep2.

I tried playing Half life 2 but I got bored after an hour. Am I doing something wrong? I got to the whole apartment complex thing when the police are chasing you, then you escape somewhere.

The story felt really badly structured and I hate having to walk around and click on every thing until I find the way to the next level, especially since everything looks the same.

There's not a single language that would NOT use commas and periods.

But yeah, HL2 is pretty cool, still looks great, and all around is way more enjoyable and memorable than a good majority of modern shooters.

yes i bought the orange box so i'm gonna do that really excited are they worth playing is one better than the other

>I tell ya hwat them dang ol combine man they messin up ma lawn like some big ol bug tractor n' turning people into crazy monsters and trash man.

Episode 2 is excellent. Really, really good expansion. Episode 1 is okay, but nothing special.

I feel like half-life game is a perfectly crafted game. It's just well designed across the board. But it feels so sterile at the same time. There's no charming flaws to it or artfulness.
It's like a soulless super AI was presented with the idea of a video game and came up with the mathematically perfect FPS or something.

what you described is less than 30 minutes into the game, son.

>having to click everything to get to next level
Dude, it's a linear FPS game. Not a point & click title.

In short, you are literally just an ADHD patient without his meds. Also you seem to totally miss the point of the mystery-like storytelling, where you're meant to piece out what's been happening between HL1 and 2. Assuming you played HL1 at all in the first place.

HL2 also has some of the most varied environments and setpieces since some N64 era platformers.

Dots and commas. Use them.

thank you gonna end great then yes

Punctuation is a pretty crucial thing,isn't it?

> mathematically perfect FPS

Then why is half life 2 a shitty boring linear fps where the gunplay is awful and weak, and the ai so terrible the only thing she can do is shooting at you while standing still?

F.E.A.R 1 gameplay alone take a gigantic dump on hl2

play HL1 soon, it's vastly better

I'm gonna guess your American 'cause you said period not full stop.

why is it better i could buy it then

Fear sucks dick, it's one of those gimmick "good" games Sup Forums likes to tout about because they like being contrarian so much.

It's disqualified from the title of "good fps" simply for having bullet time.

Exciting "gameplay"

>Literally takes you 25 minutes to get your first weapon

>he didn't play HL1 first
what the living FUCK is wrong with you kids??
HL2 is all rooted to HL1 !

I don't understand this meme. I like first Half life, but gunplay in it is just horrible.And there are some awfully tedious moments.

>having a god tier AI and gunplay is now considered "gimmick " for a fps


fucking kill yourself ASAP valvedrone

wasn't in the orange box so i didn't bother but i can still get it

Ano, stop. Fear isn't only a great FPS, it's also a great game period. You're the one who's being a contrary faggot for saying it's bad, since it's universally recognised as being good.

That's what contrary means.

>It's not a good FPS because it has

now that's bait

>"gameplay" does not start before u get a gun! :^)
modern CoD-generation in a nutshell.
I wonder why crap like TLOU is so loved then, as it takes over an hour to get any kind of action?

That's not any kind of excuse, fucking moron.
You play most games in release order by default.

>disliking hl1 for the gunplay when it's basically the same shit in hl2 but with a terrible level design

>lmao check out this god tier AI on enemies that are being slowed down to a crawl by bullet time, I'm totally not a CoD baby too shit to play an FPS without gimmicks
You're just too shit to play a good fps, stick to halo next time, kiddo.

FEAR level and visual design is so bad, it made me drop this otherwise great game.

>It's not a good FPS because it has bullet time
The above statement is undeniable truth.
Literally no argument against it.

It's much better in HL2. Enemies ate least don't take 2 full mags to kill.

It's called 'pacing'. But you wouldn't know anything about that, action boy.

it wasn't in the orange box so i didn't get it but i can still get it

Nah, the shitty bullet time gimmick makes it a boring and easy fps, while the absolutely retarded story, art direction and the feeble horror elements seal the deal.

Literally no argument for it

>Max Payne isn't a good TPS because it has bullet time

Said nobody ever.

HL2's gimmick is the gravity gun and physics. The game is harmed because of it.

Enemies in HL1 are more sturdy than in HL2.
The Combine are stupidly fragile, even the elite units.

even slow motion wouldn't save half life from his shitty weak gunplay, you must be jealous

Well, TPS is a fundamentally shit genre, so I guess having dumb gimmicks to spice things up a bit is acceptable.

TLOU is craptacular as well

A game generally starts when you can actually play the fucking game. Why do you think Doom is so loved and revered to this day? Because it has polished gameplay and you can jump straight into it

At least I can play without using the bullet time and enjoy the top tier ai/gunplay, unlike in half lame 2 .

It's called poor game design. It's very easy to balance the game out with cooldown periods which are generally skippable if you want to get back into the action. Half-Life 2 will force you to stack up boxes with Alyx for 20 minutes on every single playthrough

Water Hazard is probably the best vehicle bit with the exception of maybe the finale of Ep 2.

calm down thomas
