Crow_Nest Posted June 21, 2004 Author Share Posted June 21, 2004 For those who didnt know there was a part 2, here it is http://www.planethalflife.com/half-life2/delaymovie2/ Btw, i just read the good news, Gabe Newell (The guy that started HL2) said that by August HL2 would be hitting the store shelves, lets hope theres no delay this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw heres a Gorden Freeman interview: Clicky No. I mean half life 2. Its already outdated, if you look at the graphics, its not really what its cut out to be, and if you look at the actual gameplay, just walking around and killing crab heads, it doesn't look too revolutionary, just looks like the usual game. It's still a really big step up tho, with the physics system and some graphics updates. Just not enough for me to buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IG-64 Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 Originally posted by GothiX pft, HL2 doesn't even have DLighting.. exactly my point, there are more and more graphics updates that have already outdated half life 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only actualy "dynamic" lighting is from the playermodel, which is old technology - even used in JA. the rest of the flashlight effect is vertex-lit, and NOT lightmapped (=dynamically lit).

Tyrion Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 No. I mean half life 2.

Uh...tell me then, what exactly does have better graphics? Doom 3's about the same quality, but then again S.T.A.L.K.E.R. looks REALLY good. pft, HL2 doesn't even have DLighting.. Er, yes it does. It's called HDR lighting, or High Dynamic Range. I've seen a video of it, it looks cool. Lemme see if I can find it... Edit- Found it. http://www.fileplanet.com/files/130000/130227.shtml Tell me if that doesn't just rock. (I got it at Planet Half-life, so that's why it links to Fileplanet..)

Lemme see if I can find it... That's old technology, and it's implemented in a lot of games already - GTA:VC in example. Dynamic lighting is when a shadow is cast on a surface, relative to the lightsource and object casting the shadows - all calculated in-game.

Kusanavi Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Indeed, the HL2 graphics have been beaten by games like Far-Cry and upcoming games like S.T.A.L.K.E.R., Doom 3 and maybe F.E.A.R., but you have to admit that HL2 still looks amazing, the lighting is awesome, the psychics and the DX9 effects look amazing. Sith, where did you read or hear this? I haven't seen anything like that >_> ok maybe I have but my mind right now is distracted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's HDR, which means it's used in Half-life 2. Tell me what the difference is between Dynamic lighting and HDR, though. I thought HDR included Dynamic lighting.. Far-Cry Mmm, I didn't think Far-cry was too hot on the graphics. The enemies looked like plastic and the environment looked like crap(trees became way too blurry the farther away they were, and no game should have trees that pop up in the backround) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusanavi Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Tyrion, have you seen Far-Cry on a Geforce 6800 Ultra or Radeon X800 XT PE? I have, and it looks amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have, and it looks amazing I've seen screenshots of it, and I'm playing it right now on a 9800 Pro. Again, it looks good, but it definitely has some faults. The screenshots look a whole better than it is in-game though.. Although, I'm sure my opinion would change if you gave me a X800 XT PE...*wink wink* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
