Lost Coast is out

It killed my pc twice - I'm talking stone-cold instant reboots, even though I have such a feature turned off in system options.

But it does look lovely, and the level design is clever. Commentaries are an excellent idea too.

They're still using that ugly water shader though, something like Far Cry's one would be so much better.

opened it for a hot 5 seconds and went back to zbrush cause I got projects to complete it does look tasty though

that last shot with the blue lighting is ... amazing

Oh dip, that's beautiful. Love the skindetail in the first picture.

we waited this long for 10 minutes of gameplay? I'm not that impressed. Nice level, but wasnt worth the wait.

Haha, thats so cute, you expected it to be worth the hype?

Im even surprised they added gameplay

What's the gameplay like, I thought it was just gonna be a techdemo (seriously).

Well, the techdemo has to at least show what the AI is like.

I retract my statement. In playing through it again (not speed rushing, just another casual play through), it in fact, took 12 minutes to complete.

I just love how earlier Valve said that Lost Coast was about 30 minutes of gameplay.

Uhm they never said it'd be 30 minutes...

Played through it, looks good~~

Not a techdemo for a graphics engine update. HDR here, HDR there, never heard anything about presenting improved AI. Oh well whatever...

Looking at the screenshots I'm not impressed, w0000t sparkly lights that don't look right anyway! Nah.. I prefer old source, but hey that's me.

Nice try from Valve, I have respect for them.

But I'm afraid it's too little too late.

The church is really nice. the architecture and textures.
