Half-Life 3 "Leak"

Yet another set of HL3 strings were found in Valve's VR Destinations tool: docs.google.com/document/d/1PC57mvb0YLFiTeQOzdip7UQ_UqQ7vd5oElkLdyXMg2o/edit


Intriguing strings:
! @PointClass base(Targetname) size(16 16 16) color(255 0 0) = path_corner_crash : "Helicopter Crash Path"


"models\headcrab.mdl" { "mod" "hl3" "importfunc" "ImportMDLtoVMDL" "getSkinningFromLod0" "1" }

Valve's either blatantly messing with the fan base or, they're intentionally releasing these as hype fuel.

I honestly don't know what Valve is trying to do. They've been "releasing" little lines of code in their games every now and again for the past couple of years. Nothing's changed.

...

...

Hey, at least we get these cool low-poly Gordon's.

Pretty sure the Valve of the olden days is long since dead, but we'll see. They've waited so long that cynicism has caught up with my hype and enthusiasm for HL3.

These files aren't even that interesting. More interesting things about HL3 have leaked, like those textures from a few months ago.

I didn't hear about the textures, are there any pictures?

It also might have been for L4D3, but it's a more interesting leak regardless.

Bravo Valve, bravo!

That import got fucked up. Would be pretty easy to fix in a modelling program though.

...

The colors are completely wrong for that though. Plus I think they'd probably have to license that because of muh copyright.

Who cares? Valve has become a soulless kike company and even if they did release HL3 it would be complete dogshit.

You know what they're doing?
Implementing their code into every single Valve™-approved game, leaking just enough information to keep people intrigued, and hiding away designs in resource files.

It makes sense, all of these games are availible on a singular platform, and all accessible from their brand-name application.
They can do whatever they want with it.

So, why not turn the steam application into a gigantic patcher?

Every line of code they've documented, every design they've secreted away, all the hidden audio files compressed into encrypted and seemingly useless file extensions, all patched together, literally, into a new game.
It will be half-life 3. But if you want it, you must buy all the bits and pieces of its code as individual games.
It will be utter shit, but everyone will "buy" it. A massive ARG that has people scrambling to "assemble the code" all for the sake of increasing the sales of shat out triple-A titles.

And you will "buy" it.

When you pull them all together you get a naked picture of Gaben rubbing his nipples at you saying "Your move user!"

Does someone have the screencap?
I need the original John Lennon HL3 2016 screencap.

Go to another thread if you don't like this one. Simple as that.

Requesting a webm of VNN's latest video Plz.

They are doing this shit exclusively to drive you to suicide while Gabe masturbates to the profits from his skin gambling corporate fronts and snorts crack off a nubile boy's lambda tattooed stomach.

HALF-LIFE 3 IS CANCELLED YOU DUMB FUCKER

...

...

who said that

If Valve had announced HL3 just 1 or 2 years ago every fucking thread on Holla Forums would be headlined HL3 CONFIRMED for a brief second before the board crashed due to traffic.

Every week that goes by it feels like people just give less of a shit. We're past peak anticipation. I mean, like a third of the board would still be Valve, but there would be a lot of justified pessimism and no real joy.

I fear the day HL3 actually gets announced, the board would probably hit a PPH of several thousand.

holy shit Gordon got OLD

...

I'm at the point where I'd probably just pirate the HL3 singleplayer rather than give money to Paidmods Newelstein. Watching every last big gaming company get thoroughly integrated into Jewry has eroded all of my faith.

If it comes, HL3 will be a means to sell VR just like HL2 was a means to spread Steam. Valve knows they will profit better from bottling up the hype for a decade and using it to push Judaic side-ops than risking blowing their hype machine just for box sales.

I laughed a bit but it got unfunny quite fast.

It's because it's been in development for over a decade. Valve just lets it's devs do whatever so nothing of any substance ever gets done.

Has there been a lot of work on HL3? Yeah, is anything going to come from it? Probably not.

I want to Miku's puffy vulva

Thats the ruse, theyll wait long enough for us to lose hope and all expectations before releasing it so they dont dissapoint.

I might get some flak here, but i hope HL3 if its ever released turns out be more like HL1 and returns to its horror roots. I love HL1.

Beautiful

You're welcome.

HL1 was pretty good

...

...

why

Bullsquids need love too.

No user, I meant the screencap
The screencap of the post with John Lennon and the spoiled 2016
That was still in 2014 if I remember correctly

Oh. Sorry about that.

NEVER EVER
NEVER EVER
NEVER EVER

Its already, I just wish my HDD didnt crash and burn.
I had years of shitposting and archiving on that, I almost killed myself when it wouldnt boot regardless of what I did.

But there are 4 games.

How the fuck did you fuck up that quality so bad?

Nigger it's a fucking 17-minute-long video shoved into less than 8MB.

What did he download the vid with then? A fucking toaster?

>>>/cuckchan/

It will happen, I launched that source 2 editor. It's really confusing to use, it has a lot of hammer's old features, but there are a ton of new ones.
I was looking through the materials and models. I saw a mesh of a space helmet, without a texture. There were tons of entities with names of Half-Life 3 NPCs. Alyx, dog, gman, advisor, apc_driver.

I bought a vive so I was able to test out some basic stuff.
I took the sound test stage model and put a vr teleporting grid in one of the observer rooms and looked down on the space I was standing during the Vive setup demo.
It'll be very interesting what comes of this.

Also, included is a VR setting that Valve made of a church. At select VR teleport nodes you read how they made it. It looks amazing. They took a bunch of pictures and used a program to mesh them together and make a 3d point map mesh. Then what didn't get translated over because of missing information they would add through hammer. Say a building is half missing, they just take what they have and make geometry to finish it, and then stamp and blend the textures they got from the partially finished object.

I can totally see Half-Life 3 being in VR, but it doesn't have to be a vr exclusive. The map they showed of the church still had many flaws, so instead of doing that I imagine they will make a fake world and supplement it with some real objects and meshes.

Imma need some screenshots user

...

I feel with this years E3 set to be VR: The Show, that HL3/EP3 reveal is more likely than recent years. Given that Valve are heavily involved with a VR device and have been showing off Source 2 for a little while now, it could finally be the year for real this time guys.

Implying they wouldn't let a shitload of clues all around the Internet like they did for Portal 2.

Which was very clever, I really want them to do that one more time.

...

Cant wait for them to announce it at the Sony conference.

Here are some, I'm going to post some of the editor too.

Absolute madman
thanks

...

Thanks, I still dont think it will happen though.
Every year is the same.

What do you make of this?
I honestly don't know why there would be a space helmet included in this.
The animation repeats with the visor going up and down.

Thing is, with Valve it coukd be anything, they have a shitload of unfinished products and it could be the model/animation for another VR showcase.

It means nothing

Well, it is now or never. And we were told to wait for 2016 by some (1) anons during 2014 and 2015
Pic might be related if true

I believe one day a dev will say this unironically. it happened in porn.

You do realize it's all placeholders for Half-Life 3? They're not planning to release shit. Unless someone finally forces them to, in which case all of this is still just aimless bait.

pic related

How did I never notice the change in glasses before?

They probably won't do tf3
especially when ricochet 2 is a possibility

what the fuck is wrong with that basket ball

What am I looking at?

Computer illiterate detected.

It's a safety helmet with several makeshift shotguns attached to it. The protrusions are the makeshift shotguns and they were discharged via an electric pulse, though it also had one backup gun that could be set off manually. The whole thing was covered in some strengthening material in order to keep it all together (I think it was glassfiber or something like that).

Some kid in the 70's wanted to kill himself, so he built a suicide helmet. He put shotgun shells inside it and detonated them with an electric current.

For what purpose?
He could just find a cliff

As the other dude said, suicide helmet.


He wanted to be 100% sure it iced him instantly, that's why every shotgun is pointed in such a way that when they all go off, it'll completely obliterate his brain and skull.

That sounds fucking horrifying, I hope that's something that happens. Would be a great way to break into Half-Life's psych horror roots again after HL2 did basically nothing in that regard that wasn't one of those emaciated skellies.

I still get a sense of dark amusement when I remember all the chucklefucks hailing this fat sack of shit as the savior of vidya.

You know who you are.

now user, we were all young once.

user i promise i will continue their story one day i have been putting it off for months

WHAT THE FUCK DID THEY DO TO HAMMER

they LITERALLY did this with Portal 2. A bunch of indie titles had new potato-themed achievments stuck in, and you bought these fucking games you otherwise would never give a single look to, just to get potato achievements towards the Golden Potato badge, just to get Portal 2 to be released like, 3 days early.

And this was in 2008ish? Holy fuck were were fools back then. And look where we are now.

Hes ok

...

Not even necessarily indie titles, there were a couple big ones that got in on it too like Killing Floor. Had and still has a big Portal 2 Aperture area with GLaDOS as a custom shopkeeper.

TF3 is unlikely, but Valve has expressed concern over Overwatch and how it might take away their spotlight with TF2, so there's been a source 2 port talk for a while now.

They've also started working on the game again, releasing matchmaking and a bunch of fixes that were long overdue in the same week of release of Overwatch.

So, you never know.

Matchmaking is fucking cancer

It's an optional addition. I'm not gonna complain about it.

I really want Overbotch to kill TF2.

I hope it never comes out. At least, not for the next 10~15 years, or maybe more.

Things are so fucked up in the industry today that release something at this time is like shooting your own mother in the ass.

I want both cancers to die

I doubt a Source 2 port is happening, I can't see any real benefit it would add besides just making it prettier at this point, and God knows TF2's already a performance hog nowadays.

Matchmaking could go either way, I'd like to see quickplay die and matchmaking seems like the best way to do it. I hear there'll be optimizations made with matchmaking along with balances too so that'll be great to look forward to once it's out.

...

Any game with matchmaking gets consumed by it and you know it.

The game has become bloated and poorly optimized because of all the additions. A source 2 port would not only work on fixing these problems but would also help making the game run better on newer systems thanks to the new engine.

As far as my experience goes, Dota 2 on source 2 ran a shit ton better than Dota 2 on Source 1. I wouldn't be surprised if the same happened with TF2.

...

Real talk: most of /v was still in diapers in 1998.

This


Kill yourself Blizzcuck

...

Nah, Tf2 is doing competitive soon.
It's half-life 3
Left 4 dead 3
or that game mechanic they mentioned in portal 2 commentary

Go to another board if people having different opinions triggers you. Simple as that.

Wow it's literally nothing.

You've been on this site too long, go take a shower and stick your head out the window for 5 minutes and get some sunlight.

If you watch Valve News Network's video you'll see that Half-Life 3 will be released.
When had Valve last let you down with am under-performing game?

No, I wont fall for your ruse cruise, not again.

Now that Liru has been released, I'll believe in anything now.

I was away for a week, you're kidding right?

Its true

Im making another thread soon

In fucking 6/9 too. Forever ever, faggot.

You're aware people like you have been saying this for at least 8 years right? And still no Half-life.

But I already posted some here


How do you know that isn't thing isn't male as well?

8 is our lucky number

Nine years, actually. HL2:EP2 came out in '07.

what's that

9 years is 3².
With all the happenings recently I have hope that it'll actually happen.
If not, it'll be another shitty E3 I give no shit about.

This fucking week man

it was kind of disappointing

Anything else Im forgetting?

Only thing I can remember is E3 this Sunday

No it wasnt

Devil May Cry 5
Inferno Cop returns
Half Life 3 leak
Senran PC

No! I won't get hyped! Not again!

What

Watch luluco

Wasnt this week

If you're refering to the mocap it wasnt this week

Fuck yeah, hopefully Samurai Jack and Berserk are enjoyable as well.

Mate, this means nothing we've been getting shit like this for years and this happens every E3.

o-oh

still an exciting week

Okay listen, you're telling me that after 10 years. In a completely new engine, for a completely unrelated project, someone would also ship low poly models of Gordon Freeman for no reason at all?

Three days before E3?

Models that are not even used at all in the application?

It really stinks fam

And the first one came out in 1998.

This is one looooong franchise. Almost as long as the


of plutonium (25000 years).

THEY HAVE BEEN DOING THIS SHIT FOR YEARS. This year its a model.

I fucking love the concept of Brutal Legend, however Tim Schafer can burn in hell. He's dead to me

thats the default source entity model you dink

DMC5
Liru
Gawker
HL3 Leaks
Senran
Good week tbh onii-fam

Yes, they've done shit like this countless times.

And it's the first time it's been a model In any other case it could've been a snipped of code left over from when HL3 was actually in development.

but a fucking model?

From a series that is supposed to be dead and buried and this close to E3?
It just doesn't feel right, I'm always believing, but honestly this might be the year. If not E3, then at Steam Dev Days.

holy shit did you literally just come from reddit ffs

its literally a retexture of the default source entity model. its nothing special.

The pic in OP and the lowpoly deformed one?

Can you post a source on that? I'm not finding anything online.

...

I just expected more from it, all things considered.

Did you play the previous games?
That should be your standart.
Liru is above that.

Theres plenty of fans of his work here, webm threads always have something by him.

>>>/reddit/

First of all, you got the fucking name yet still ask to be spoonfed. Second, that shit is posted about so often here its obvious you are new. Jesus christ, ive seen people ask who the fuck zoe quinn was these past few days.

Its deformed possibly because of a shitty import.

reddit.com/
Leave.

???

That shit has been popping up these last few days, goes away after the post is older.

I remember that popping somewhere else.
Was it the E3 thread?

S-sent

It pops up when you sage, I think its site wide

Yep.

Lets see what happens when I slap this into the email field

At this point, they are probably too scared to release something with all the hype. There is a chance half life will be like the last guardian and finally released, but why everybody has to hold on to this hope that it will be released is beyond me.

good christ

… Okay? But how can you claim that it's the default entity for Source?

Can you post proof of that? Again, I'm not finding anything about this anywhere.

wake me up in 2033.

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE

valve is going back to Ivan the space biker.

This is hammer 2

...

Those are almost certainly leftovers from the HL2 Beta. The Missile Defense one is definitely one.
half-life.wikia.com/wiki/HK-707

The APC-Driver could refer to the sniper section of the old Streetwar concept back when City 17 was still an American city.

Vid related to what the missile defense was supposed to be used for. You had to guide missiles into targets while avoiding their fire.

TF2 may not be what it once was but it's still a lot better than Overshill. Best they kill each other so that perhaps something like TF2C or Dirty Bomb may rise in their wake.

Not that i have anything against some of the characters of overwatch but do you really want a game developed for the lowest common denominator and sjw's to win over tf2?

dude
weed
lmao

I don't know what Liru is either but I don't WANT to know either. Trying to fit in is the very definition of Reddit. Chances are high it's some Holla Forums meme shit.

Are you fucking serious?

It's a good game that the devs keep trying to shit on, all they need to do is take their shit elsewhere and it can be a good game once more.

It's a boring bland shooter with no design put into it. All the characters look the same and the business model is awful. The map are badly designed and encourage camping and CoD-like tactics.

It's fucking terrible.

Valve is shit, Half Life 3 is dead. It's never going to happen. Fucking kill yourselves you cock fucking fags.

I'll agree with some of those points, especially with the boring character design. But it has the good virtue of being an objective based team shooter that is fast, has tolerable TTKs, accurate weapons, and some neat movement tricks. I think it's worse than OG TF2 but better than anything else like it, I'd like to know if you disagree and why.

and no, arena shooters like Quake are not "like it" and can't really be compared outside of something like Quake wars

...

For starters it's yet another game that ends up being an aberration of twisted game mechanics between arena shooters and realistic shooters. 'Oh yeah, this is a totally realistic shooter, that's why every player can bunny-hop around like they have springs for feet.' It's like halo, but with slightly more weapons, and you have to grind to get those weapons at random. Oh, and with 'parkour.'

You didn't bring up any game like it (team based objective shooters) that is better

Normally I'd say you're a fucking idiot and HL3 is probably never going to come out

But we just had Liru come out and Gawkers dead so anythings possible at this point

That's because I've yet to find one that's any good, including Dirty Bomb. I guess you could say CS:GO is kinda like it, but at least CS:GO doesn't have as much terminal cancer in it's grinding system. The only difference from other 'team based objective shooter' games is that you can bunny-hop everywhere, and 'parkour' your way slightly faster through the map.

Actually, you know what, I just realized that SWAT 4 was exactly what you described, a team-based objective shooter, just without all the cancer. So there is at least one pretty good game like that, it's just been so long since there was a good one, that I genuinely can't think of any. Some anons probably know a lot more than I do, though.

Probably an asset from Stars of Blood.

Meant to reply to
Let me post, goddamn

Haven't played SWAT before but I'll look into it

At this point it's more exciting to wait for it than to play it.

If you're a cuck, that is

dreams do come true

Not knowing basic things about imageboards and things everyone always talks about on particular boards makes you a newfag, and thus means you have to lurk moar. Lurking moar involves not posting, because all that comes out is retarded garbage. Now shush, Summerfag.

I support this, but it's too late
Half the board has less than 15 months lurking in an imageboard
We are a minority now

…man HL2 fucking sucked even in fucking up scripted events.

That's basicaly why there are several threads on this site, otherwise Holla Forums would be like an IRC channel if anyone always knew about everything.

If I can add another game to this list, Joint Operations, >>>/radcorp/12 . SWAT 4 is a good choice.

I don't think they'll make that. I think they're going to implement portals and shit into HL3. I mean, the Borealis is an Aperture Science ship, so it makes sense.


But Liru is extremely popular around here. If you're too new to have seen it mentioned before, you're too new to post.

Half-life 3: DOTA Global Portals 4 Dead

Overwatch has zero possibility of killing off TF2. Even if TF2 never got competitive, it will outlive Overwatch by quite a few years simply because Overwatch is a casual shitfest set up to appear competitive.
Overwatch also has no good maps, and I doubt Blizzard will let people create their own.

Sounds like TF2, and I mean that with love to TF2. Anyone who tryhards TF2 is autistic.

TF2 was designed at least initially to not be competitive on purpose. But as always some tryhardfags that are also furries just had to shit up the community with their autism.

Exactly like Smash Bros if you think about it.

And the worst part is that back when it wasn't quite dead, /tf2/ was full of the sort of compfags who are like I'VE BEEN PLAYING EVER SINCE IT WAS A MOD TF2 WAS A MISTAKE I'M A PLAT MASTER FUCKING PUBS NO ONE PLAYS ON PUBS

It's funny how things that were supposed to make it more competitive only make it shit. Like fully charged Widowmaker shots doing one-shot kills(regardless of body part hit) on almost half the game's cast. Who the fuck decided that was a good idea? Reward the snipers for being good, not for existing! Even fucking Call of Duty does you the favor of body shots not being instant death.
TF2 simply has better longevity. I'm sure Blizzard thought they could swoop in and take a large piece of the pie with Overwatch because TF2 is almost a decade in age. But if they want it to last. It's 2.0 is gonna have to be very different than the shitshow it's gameplay is currently.

After the kind of shit backdoor deals that came to light after GG its fairly obvious blizzard is paying literally everybody to shill the fuck out of OW

It was 2011 you dumb nigger

And Blizzcucks are obviously eating it up.
Check the Warcraft Metacritic

sorry for posting this here but can some of you torrenters that keep in the loop tell me if this pic is still accurate?

I don't really keep in the loop, but from what I've heard all of that looks about right

actually would like chat if it were possible but not everybody's going to use some shitty lesser known program to steal shit, much less with that shit in it's logo assuming it hasn't been edited
I just feel like shit when I leech gigs off of a single seeder and don't have any way to at least express any sort of gratitude or regret, for all they know I could just be some parasite throwing away torrents whenever I'm done with them

well, this is just straight up false. I don't think you can kill anyone with a fully charged shot by body shooting. fully charged headshots kill medium-squishy heroes tho. the sniper rifle is actually weaker than TF2's default sniper.


thanks

>>>/topv/

Just stick with transmission.

>tfw the orange box 2

...

Who fucking cares, HL3 is never coming out. Valve needs to stop meming this stupid game

Same models are in source by default.

...

THAT'S THE WAY YOU DO IT

MONEY FOR NOTHING GET YOUR CHICKS FOR FREE

Use Opus for shit quality audio, god damn.

*shit bitrate audio, the quality is much better for lower filesizes

Lurking is great and all but I refuse to pay attention to the shit taste and even shittier threads that springs up every second. But if you want to read everything be my guest.

I ignored Fallout 4 and I'll ignore Overwatch and I will definitely always ignore Dark Souls threads thank you very much.

Surely no one still cares at this point. Just announce the game or don't announce it. The subtle hints and trails of bread crumbs stopped being cute a long time ago.

Nigga what you smoking? Widowmaker does 150 per body shot, and her rifle charges in about 1 second. Her rifle rewards people who spam, there's no downsides to body shotting because being able to put three 150-damage shots down range in 3 seconds is better than only doing 1 headshot.
