Who the heck really runs that facility?!? Monkeys?!
This game twists 3D reality well. Does a good job at preparing us for the next phase in human evolution beyond time and space as we understand them. .
Between this and damagepy's time travel stuff, I'm really excited for potential future custom maps. I just hope they become something more than just potentials.
Reminds me of Metroid Prime 2 (echoes) where you travel back and forth between worlds to get to different places (eg where in one world a tunnel is caved in and in the other it's not_
@Foxtrek64 It's a similar mechanic, but in Echoes, you're traveling to an alternate dimension rather than going through time. When interacting with something stuck in a transdimensional flux, what you do in one dimension affects both in some way, while, in time travel, changing the past affects the future, but changing the future has no affect on the past.
For the most part, though, making changes in one of the worlds is the equivalent to altering the future in time travel.
@RandomQuestions Yes, and the same mechanic can be applied - where you travel back and forward in time to get past certain obstacles like you did in your vid
@SpeltWrongProduction That wouldn't work because of terminal velocity. And if terminal velocity no longer applies in the future, then God help the person who tries this.
who seriously cares about how it works? just because the way it WORKS isn't that amazing, doesn't mean the whole IDEA isn't. being a genius doesn't have to ruin it for you.
@THEARBITER1236 Yeah could make a map where you need to go to the future to make a portal where you cant in the past, like behind a wall, then you have to go back and you will be able to go behind that wall, O.O
Something perhaps more realistic, couldn't you go into a portal loop (One above the other) and eventually get such momentum that your going lightspeed? At which point you will be in there, say for 6 hours, because time was going faster outside of this "Loop" when you came out it could be say... 6 years in the future. I'm just going off a similar proven concept here so excuse me if this wouldn't actually work. xD
@xInstAkilL it was working at the time he was sent forward, so all it needed to do was move the particles that came back in time forward again, so the particles that went forward come back.
If the the portal sits there all that time, it'll just be there... It won't be like it takes a picture of the past and brings it to the future, it just is like a window. When you look out a window, it's always going to be whatever is going on outside at the moment.
@666ManDeath Pitty. There is a guy making an indie game where you can place portals with 2 different end points in time, but it's in early development and most likely will be abandoned.
I'm not against the idea, it's just a confusing concept for perhaps younger players... It just wouldn't work financially and perhaps get the younger audiences mad.
@666ManDeath Yep, the portal gun would have to be modified to allow for time travel, or you'd just have a closed portal for a certain amount of time...
That reminds me: Wasn't time traveling with the portal gun a potential issue in the story? I mean, Cave didn't specifically say that the portal gun itself would be responsible, but there aren't any other devices seen in that area that look capable of defying the laws of physics and the portal gun was clearly in use by then...
@Private19872 technically if that were to happen, it would have already happened because it would have wiped out time entirely, forward and backwards.
Well then we know it never will happen then will it. Thats just like if we discovered time travel someone would have come to this time and told us by now.
@Private19872 exactly, because time doesn't exist. Time is just used to correctly tell when something is done. It's like a way to organize when events will happen. Infinity is happening now and at the same time, has already happened...
@willizle02 According to Einstein's E=mc^2, time and space make up this universe. Time can slow down(except at the speed of light where time stops) and speed up(if you stop moving through space). Infinity is a concept and a limit, it isn't real. Infinity would be the asymptote on the graph of y=x(on a Euclidean plane). Infinity is the distance a line goes(in 2D space). Infinity will never be reached. Unless CERN is right, but I have my doubts.
@oregonmilitiaman Since I'm definitely no physicist, or even a physics student, I need to go read up on Einstein's theories. When I really thought about it, I started viewing time as merely a construct of humans as a method of keeping track of events and, as a result (in conjunction with it defying the laws of conservation of mass energy), saw time travel as merely being something of speculative fiction.
@willizle02 Multiple timelines. Traveling to the past could just be traveling to a different timeline. Other timelines could have been destroyed entirely, but the one in Portal 2 remained in tact.
Of course, one would have to wonder why, if someone really did travel through time, the timelines aren't in an infinite loop of destruction, assuming eye contact with one's past self was ever made.
@hackcheat101 Actully,you need to go in the past first,because if you do future(portal) then go in the past the (future portal) didnt exsist in the past,so it hasnt been created,so the portal wouldnt exist not the person,also it might rip the space time continuem
if valve can't count to 3, make a portal 2.5 ..although, GLaDOS killed ALL the humans, let chell go and doesn't care about atlas and P-body anymore. so what would you do? play as birds?
Portal 3 should be chell going back in time to save other test subjects and along the way discover her origins as to who she really is so that the conclusion of the series ends with epic character development yet not a remake of Portal 1.
I'd like to say this is really cool. Have you considered making the future have Portal 2 graphics, but the past have the original semi-blocky Portal graphics? That'd be awesome.
@Ringthehedgehog So its like it would disapear from all the time it was used in the past,and if we put one in the future,it will be gone when we go back in time cuz it didnt exist before?
you should make a mod out of this that has 14 chambers and at the beginning of each chamber should have a time button then at the end the button for the destroyed exit will be back to normal time and its like new. :D
