@BigdogWitBigdog if they havent modifed they have cheated - almost everyone got this like myself, and its just another chapter/level. Like a deleted scene or something.
@ahackerjack yeah i know i' nvidia card and got it for free..as it's free for ati and nvidia vga cards owners....but the question remains the same...why is it sooo pricy for only that??
So this game got only one mission ? Ok i don't give a fuck about how good it looks, i want a game with a good story line and stuff, fuck off lost coast.
@jeffhardyfan42002 Fuck off, i don't give a flying fuck if it's free, for me it looks like they lost the time doing this shit, it's literally worthless, i don't get it why you guys like this bull shit so much, it's waaay too short, well bye now.
@MattafixTm it was made to show the people the new HDR technology, why dont you shut the hell up in first time if you dont know anything about why this game was made ?
@MattafixTm Wow man, you are upset that people didn't work hard enough to deliver you a better free product showcasing tehcnology they have developed for future games you would most likely play... Thats so rational of you! (SARCASM)
@MattafixTm I thought your first comment was really ignorant but you sure turned things around with that follow up man! You really deconstructed my argument and returned with a well thought out reply explaining why the Lost Coast is such an unsatisfactory demonstration of gaming technology KUDOS MAN!
@12Foofoo12 Those poison headcraps, I hate them, but and easy fix to that problem is the shotgun, if your close enough, you can kill them with one shot, but if they bite you, wait until your done healing. Or you will die.
Hmm, that's nothing special. ;) Btw if you're the fan of source engine games - better get yourself an ATI card. :) It doesn't make much difference, but it will be better.
@yorky1230 Wrong; get yourself an Nvidia, as they are known to have a better result over ATI for HDR (high dynamic range rendering), especially in this game.
@zombieruler0123 lost coast doesnt cost u anything. u get the game if u buy half life2, counter strike source or any other valve game that supports source engine
@IRONMAN255550 lost coast boasts more pixels and higher end lighting, its basicly just a 15 minute short gameplay game to see how nice the engine is on pc
well thats strange...only one mission? on new game it says chapter 1.... whatever nice walktrough! if anyone plays css,tf2,l4d2 or garry's mod add meon steam! XxPainKillerxX01
omg i love the 2:00 part where hes like: Ha ha blast u full of holes! *ammunition depleted* aw screw it... and then bam right off the cliff XD thumbs up... JUST for that ^^
so is that the end of the game? because i don't get it. as soon as i get back to that fisherman, the same way this guy did, it does that thing that happened at the end of the video... i think it's implying you die?
@QuietEthic I think this is meant to be some random situation that the Gman puts Gordon in, to help out, then whisks him away to someplace new when it's done. The old man says "you're getting fuzzy around the edges", which is either breaking the 4th wall, and commenting that the screen is fading out, or it implies that he's being teleported away.
I just noticed that the song that starts playing from 4:00 thru 4:10 (it's longer but I just took that much to show you) it's in the ending of Half life 2 Episode 2 right?
Yup! :'( I might be getting it upgraded since I can play source games (not properly without windows xp) but gmod is fine all Im missing is more ram and a graphics card, it should be fine
I LOVE how well optimized the source engine is. It keeps up with games like crysis and BFBC2 but barely require anything to run. Valve sure knows how to make great games.
@420Balance Source is a modified Havoc engine and Valve has put loads of time and money making it the Source engine they want to. They have made many of different kinds of games with it and have more planned in the future, I doubt they will throw it away and start all over? No, they keep modifying and keep improving the engine like always.
It doesn't actually take a lot to run Half-Life 2 to run on maximum settings considering looking at your specs you can see not a lot :) and that is great and lol yeah they walk about 20 feet and wahla their there lol xD well anyways considering Lost Coast is smaller than Half-Life 2 the original i think so yeah maybe i could probably run it on max also i haven't really played Lost Coast yet but what is it like and is it really any different from the original? well nice computer :D
@aala12 lost coast is a test run by valve to try out their new anti aliasing stuff, and it takes alot to run it on full, compared to the normal half life 2. but it is alot smaller than half life 2 as it is only one level. but i do like the walking bit.
Yes, I got mine with the orange box and I'm sure it's bundled in with other things. But if you look at the steam store, they are apparently selling it there for £6.
i was really dissapointed at this HL, it took like 10 min to finish :S i had exspected at least 2 or 3 hours, like episode 1 and 2... bought orange box yestoday, and was like "yay, lost coast, never tryed" so i was really hopefull :((
Oh yeah and I bet the graphics will be greatly improved in Half-Life 3. I bet Garry's mod will also use the new engine for the improved physics and such.
@supersmashman9999 Improved physics? Better graphics? Im afraid that it is not going to happen! Well... Maybe the graphics will get a LITTLE better, The Source engine is not the best game engine for graphics.
And they WONT use the new graphics on Garrys Mod, that will never happen. Because it's just a MOD.
