Things you DON'T want to see in BM.

I think the chances for a screw up while climbing the ladder (crap at the base, things blocking the top, the player on the ladder at the same time) just make it more trouble than it’s worth.

I’ve wanted to post something along those lines ever since this thread was created :3 HIGH FIVE

While I’m already quoting things for truth, also

This! I’m somewhat concerned about it.

Why? It seems like they’re in pretty good hands to me, especially for particle effects. I mean, have you SEEN the Gluon Gun?:awesome: I’m not worried.

Some guy’s dingeling :expressionless:

I, uh… What?

EDIT: OOOOoooohhh, I get it. You don’t want to see some guy’s dingaling in BM. That makes perfect sense.

How about an alien dingaling then?

that might just happen.

peoples say some weird aggestions.

I am. But that recent video JamesKane posted does give me hope, if it’s being incorporated for such a purpose. That explosion alone might fit this:

:awesome:

I wouldn’t want to see a marine Whip out a grenade, pull the pin and run at Gordon Leeroy Jenkins style.

Do tell, where may I view this video??

nice! I’m going to guess its a mortar.

Always with the mortar, huh… :facepalm:

Always with the extraneously quoting other people while adding nothing, huh…:facepalm:
Somebody must really want to inflate their post count.

I actually think the mortar explosion would be best as a tall burst of smoke and debris, with blast fx at the base. Something like Company of Heroes’ effects:

My post count doesn’t matter. Inaccuracies in remakes do.

The purpose of this thread was to cut down on seemingly random threads. There have already been a few “DO WANT” threads, i figured it was time for a “DON’T WANT” thread. There seems to be a wider range of things people don’t want in the game so…as long as the stupid crap gets thrown in here, i don’t think anyone should care.

No, it’s a good idea for a thread. Just people suck at making useful posts in it.

I would post what I don’t want to see in BM, that was in HL1, but to be perfectly honest I think the devs have done a damn good job nailing everything. They’re an intelligent bunch, and know how to do a faithful remake with a good artistic take on the unrealistic portions of HL1 (read: the whole damn game).

I suppose one less thing I could do with is so much vent crawling. I remember one goddamn section early in the game where the vents just get ridiculous, and lead you back to sections you were just in several times. That could easily be cut down with few tears shed.

I’ll be that annoying little fuck who keeps waving in the window. I’m better out here anyway.
