hi, this is my second post and i want to know which version of directx you guys think will be on the next half life game???
and which hardware should be too??
i think that will still be directx 9.0c (but hoping for 11) because in a podcast interview the guy with gabe newell said that directx 9.0c was “very good and else”, and, at least, a quad core processor to make full use of havok physics and 2 gb ram.
Probably dx9. Of course, there will undoubtedly be some engine tweaks and new features, like we saw in portal 2. As for hardware, get 4 gb of ram and an amd 6870 or gtx 560. That would be more than enough to run it.
Valve said dx11 no no yet … but we will see
Why even discuss this, we have no information about the game so why even speculate the system requirements for it?
To run Half-Life 3, you need Valve to finish it first.
You’ll need to run two computers in crossfire. With four graphics cards total and 60GBs of RAM.
I have a brand new PC, and it can NOT preform such a thing.
So it sucks.
Half-Life 3
System Requirements
Minimum: 500 mhz processor, 96mb ram, 16mb video card, Windows XP, Mouse, Keyboard, Internet Connection
Recommended: 800 mhz processor, 128mb ram, 32mb+ video card, Windows XP, Mouse, Keyboard, Internet Connection
You need a lot of patience.
I predict it will need some sort of device capable of handling a certain amount of electrical states per second.
For those who can´t read:
i,ve said “which hardware you guys THINK will be”, so it doesnt matter if the game is released or not.
this is just speculation.
When the game comes out, we will not need to speculate because we will have something concrete.
If some of you think this thread has not a point, so don´t reply.
If these forums contain any more speculation they might flicker out of existence.
How many times do you think G-man will appear, reappear, disappear, and then spontaneously combust all in the same scene?
i think it will be at least 2 times. one on the beginning of HL 3 and another in the end.

considering the anointment of wii u, we can be pretty sure we will see xbox 720 in a year or two. Its pretty obvious it will use dx11, and since valve greedy as fuck, it will be either a launch title for it or will come soon after.
I dont expect half life 3 to show up before 2013, so dx 11 for sure.
I see u trollan
Nvidia 5(later), (mid-late)6, 7, 8, 9, 200, the very few 300, and 400 series would be more than enough as well.
Pick and choose…
Unless they develop a whole new engine… (which i assume they will not)
