You guys have to remember that Valve has been working on HL2 for a long time now. The game may be new, but the engine is pretty old. The biggest thing about the engine is the physics, other than that the graphics won't be top of the line b/c it is so old.

I think that goes without saying! Any new technology is a year or so behind when it gets to the end user! And then other games use the "new" engine" for years to come. Tis the way the game world works

Bah, all source is is a tuned version of the quake engine ;)

After looking at stalker, doom 3, F.E.A.R ect, HL2 doesn't look all that impressive.

Also, lots of people seem to believe that havok causes lots of lag in pk's mp. Just something to discuss there.

got to agree with you there. it even hangs slightly when you go into a level, in exactly the same way half-life 1 did!

:P

dude.....wow..the more level of graphic detail the higher bandwidth you need to play online...hell farcry which is rather detailed needs a min. of 256k for multliplayer and that lags . also load times r a factor, phyics r a factor ect..
what i am saying is they design the game to have fun, not be the next amazing next gen multiplayer.....

and why is everybody so dam black and white w/ HL2 and doom3 wtf there both great in there own?!?!?!?!
someone clue me in!

KamisoriX · 07-31-2004, 08:40 AM

Higher detail doesn't mean more bandwith. it depense how good the netcode it.

loserII · 08-01-2004, 03:26 AM
