I finished SP earlier, and just finished co-op in about 4.5hrs with a random German. i think it's the best game valve has ever made, i loved

and how even after however many hours it took, it never felt like you were doing the same things over and over.

also, how does co-op with other players work? we checked the hub afterwards, and we both had ticks next to each level, but if you play with someone else, can you only play levels both of you have already completed, or does only one player need to have them unlocked?

You can select whichever level you want once in the hub, whether one of two or both people have played them before. I'm doing my coop run with a friend in the US who had already gone through half of it himself before we started.

Took me 9 hours on SP, looking around and figuring out puzzles, and I'm about 2/3rds through Coop after 3 hours in it. Plus I've already spent another 3 hours achievement hunting.

So that means I've already spent more time playing Portal 2 than all my gaming time in 2011 so far, combined. (besides ipod gaming)

Just beat it too. Stellar design, perfect crafting, beautiful voice acting, most inspired dialogues ever. This game is just glorious

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyy?

Because the only MP experience I'm willing to play is one I can control fully, with my own friends and only them, on our own rented server. No kids, no screaming, no insults, and I sure don't want to have to pay XBL on top to get in on that. My friends are on Steam, and Steam is the only platform that will allow us to do all this. And we play the games most of us have, which in turn proves to be Valve games.

Gaming to me has always been, in the past until DoD, a SP only thing. I am much more enthusiastic about being immersed in a SP game by myself than raging about whoever's actions online.

Portal 2 = best Valve game so far. SP at its pinnacle.

/disclaimer: I never play MP games except for some Valve games from time to time

Awesome shot of San Marco man, reminds me of how low res the AC2 one was.....welcome to the core

Yeah if Stockholm meet up still happens for me though, got some more interviews and tests lined up...

Speaking of sexual arousal, you never invited me to your last big orgy going away party last friday you tool

Its just like Bluray's that sell for 30 or more... its pathetic. Tron Legacy. 35 bucks, common now.. Original Tron Bluray is 30 bucks, are you serious??? Disney is a fucking joke with their pricing structure. Money grabbers. 'rant done'

If you had ever been at Disneyland, that wouldn't surprise you in the least

cp_studio certainly qualifies as a totally unfinished and random project I never finished and never will. Total creative vaccum for me but without any planning...Dark Messiah had worn me down entirely

The whole thing is off scale and just doesn't play well at all, not to mention it maxes out brush faces (too used to DoDS way higher limit back then). The map was released, but crashed servers out of memory most of the time. A total mess.

Another pet project of mine, dod_spinta for DoDS. Never got to finishing it after moving to Montreal for Prince of Persia and dropping CAMP and DoDS with the team.

Hey Tim, good to see you around these parts

I never knew you were part of R&L

Good job on the portfolio, it really ticks all the boxes on everything it should do. Keep on kicking butt at Crytek man

":2uup5rod]Yep, that's why Furyo and Rick left, they were tired of getting sexually harassed every day.

Tired of your smell you mean

ahaha HP that's just so wrong man.... I don't know what the figures are like today, but in christmas 09 the most common size for a tv to play games on was still 32". Considering those could only ever be 720p, it's just poor design to not provide for a text upscale if you don't have a 1080p....

Congrats man, nothing else to add over what was said already. Just take it one day at a time and learn as much as you can!

We should get talking !

No no. Positions are permanent at Crytek. With the end of Crysis 2, Crytek has just seen a few people leaving.

I left Crytek yesterday. Not sure yet what I'll end up doing, but I'll be taking some time off thinking things through.

Taking myself off the list for now

Finally played my way through sequence 8 of AC2 on PC again, allowing me to post some screenshots of the flying machine section: http://www.froughol.com/assassins_creed_2.html

you'd be surprised Dux
