BM Lobby Redesign

When you see it…

oh… lol.

damn, you’re out there to notice that.

I see it. The upper phallus is lowering into the O-shaped desk. Nice work, devs! :wink:

Dillxn, I like that. You know what this would be an awesome thread for, since you’ve already started it? Taking existing media, such as the new goodness on the wiki, and editing it like you did. When I edited Jedi Academy earlier in my life, at one point forum members took screenshots I had posted and traced over them in red, pointing out details that would have been nice. It was immeasurably helpful.

lolz

But really, I always had thought the piece of architecture the monitors hang from was very strange. It seems rather thick and heavy, and doesn’t seem like something worth having there.

Maybe some kind of hommage to HL2 beta Breencast ?

EDIT : Thanks Dillxn for the pic. It seems that your new design desk fit perfectly. It makes me reconsider my thought about it.

Oh that’s disgusting :[

I’m sorry, what?

Leave it as it is.

‘was’ being the key word there :3

lol jk sorry I won’t do any more >.<"

You vandal. :meh:

@The devs: Maybe it was already changed, anyway, here is my suggestion:

Looking at the lobby desk in the original pic, I think it is still so much organized after the incident… It should be more messed up, with broken PC monitors over the desk and on the ground, desk things scatered around, blood marks on the desk etc, meaning that people have fought there during the caos.

EDIT: Also posted this suggestion in the correct thread.

It was pretty ‘organized’ in the original too.

(and if your idea of organized it knocked over chairs, dead cops, fires, and headcrab zombies, then I’d hate to see your place)

Sorry, I wasn’t clear. I was talking about over the desk, not the surroundings.

Oh, I see what you mean. Yeah, the desk itself looks pretty in order.

Wow. Despite all odds and an obvious headcrab-Security Guard struggle, the desk is still much more orderly than mine… :fffuuu:

I do hope they got the physics down on those CRT monitors, in HL2 the monitor props bounce around like footballs, these CRT’s weigh a fucking ton, hitting it with a crowbar wouldn’t even budge it, only implode the tube.

They don’t weigh so much that a crowbar wouldn’t make it move. I have a CRT monitor on my other PC. I just put a little bit of force on it with my hand and it moved.

Alot of the HL2 physics and ragdolls seem overly “light,” hopefully its tuned in bm.

Good ol’ CRT

Technically (save for the last few posts) this is surprisingly all on topic, despite the original intentions of the thread :awesome:

About the desk being organised after the disaster. I don’t know about you but when the fire alarm goes off at work I don’t go to town on my desk and trash the office.

The scientists wouldn’t have the guts to fight back (what would essentially just be headcrabs at the start) and the security team probably wouldn’t have time to react. Chances are when the alarm sounded that everyone prepared to leave their station and head for a designated emergency area. Standard procedure.
