Looks like we can expect Half Life 3 rather than Episode 3

it’s actually less likely that half life 3 will have a new engine if ep3 doesn’t get released first

You all know why it’s called “half-life” right? It’s cause they never planned on making the rest of it, and “half-game” just doesn’t have a nice ring to it.

I hope you like hats and 2forts, cause TF is next on the rotation.

I get depressed thinking about half life these days. Nothing… absolutely nothing… :frowning:

It’s great to have a new engine in HL3…
Tho i’m still okay with source, as long as they updated it in HL3.
Source it’s pretty light & powerful engine, Its all fucking better than the IW engine

Valve once said, that they are only going to make a new engine, if the things they want to do, aren’t possible with Source anymore

Yeah, like Sin Episodes…
ffs

should be new HL running on the same improoved source engine like Portal 2? …just asking …

I think it should, they might add a few new things to it though.

No new engine, as source’s iterative development will continue.

He was asking for Source Portal 2 version not for Source engine 2, and to answer your question maybe they will update, depending if they want,time, and if it will be easier than before … it can cause a lot of bugs.

I think the Gman has to be involved in representing, if not straight up being, the antagonist.

They could always do a prologue at the start of HL3 tying up the the end of the episodic story arc, then have the main game arc be whatever the deal with the Borealis was (say you get teleported somewhere completely different by some Aperture tech on the Borealis). Then a final epilogue to tie up the overarching story.

Founded in 2004, Leakfree.org became one of the first online communities dedicated to Valve’s Source engine development. It is more famously known for the formation of Black Mesa: Source under the 'Leakfree Modification Team' handle in September 2004.
