"turn it into Half life 2" "no storyline to follow"

May be missing the point of HL2. But I think I get what you were ... getting at.

Load world..
Load geopolitical climate (ie Combine Overwatch)
Walk around in realtime with AI interactions and SOME pre-scripted "events" such as the rebel raid on the city 19 citadel or taking a transfer train IN REAL TIME to stockholm.

I can see the appeal but dont think the programmers exist to make it happen.

Besides I would..

Load world..
Load geopolitical climate (Hot alien women forcing all men and women into breeding camps)

Immagine Half Life 2 after the events in city 17, Gordon would be free right? that's what I was talking about. Free roam in a near-future setting.

I am still waiting for a war simulator that takes place on a realtime single persistent world. You join. Warp into an AI's place at the battlefront.. Fight die warp and then leave and go to bed. The next day you may be joining into that same fight or if it is over another unit. All one general server. So if you and 10 buddies get online you can take over a whole platoon and go ape-sh|t for a few hours to try and further the war effort. And you can only be on one side for the entirety of your gaming experience. So choose wisely.

Have any dev team or publisher "checked in"? Is there a feedbeack about "this is what we need when "it will be done"?

What about support different VGA? I saw some screens about VGA issues. Are they solved?

Oh, what about water or underwater modeling? :)

Yes, several developers from multiple industries "checked in", we can't complain about lack of interest from this side either. However, the engine and technology being new and incomplete, working out some contracts will take some time.

VGA? Do you mean support of graphics chips other than Nvidia's? AMD issues aren't solved yet, still working with them to address the bugs in OpenGL 3.3 functionality in their drivers.


Water and underwater modeling is planned as well.

If your using Firefox go grab the addon "No Squint" It allows per site adjustment of Page zoom, text zoom and most importantly Page and text colors. Can't live without a black Youtube. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/F12Bwth2/2010-09-07_142345.jpg
