Valve promises '3 big surprises' are coming

  1. They will finally release that fairy RPG they were working on before L4D that was apparently “the worst game any of them have ever played”
  2. There are only two surprises! What a surprise!
#22
  1. They’re making platformers.
  2. They’re making Alien Swarm 2
  3. Gabe has had a liposuction and now has a second job as porn actor that performs acts with crowbars and Portal turrets.

Seriously, no one said L4D3 yet?

how strange

#24

Not again… the only shocking thing about the last “surprise” was how shitty it was. If it’s some stupid bullshit again, like Portal for the Dreamcast, I’m bringing out the pitchforks…

#25

If one of those surprises doesn’t feature ep3, I’m fairly certain the windows of Valve’s HQ will get decorated by at least one crowbar.

#26
  1. A party will be held in your honor.
  2. You will be escorted to your party by a our party associate shortly, please assume the party submission position.
  3. There will be cake.
#27

Their ideas of surprises so far aren’t making me excited for these ones at all. Unless it really is Ep3 at all.

#28

If they will reveal anything related to Half-Life, it will be more of a relief than a surprise.

#29

Valve is the Preparation-H of the internet

#30
  1. A cheesy joke about Valve not releasing Ep. 3
  2. A cheesy joke about A Left 4 Dead sequel
  3. A cheesy joke about porting a valve game to a cheesy platform [/every_post_on_topic]
#31

The only things I’d honestly get excited about would be Valve making platformers now, or Ep3.

#32
  1. Portal 2 prices (collector’s edition 199.99 comes with a toy portal gun)
  2. Two or three Episode 3 screenshots
  3. Valve is working on a DotA game (woo big surprise).
#33

Does anyone here actually LIKE Valve anymore? I’ve lost my respect for them… lol.

#34

Of course. They make awesome games and love their fanbase. I know they do because of Alien Swarm. What company makes such good games for free anymore? If you dislike Valve you’re a massive idiot who wouldn’t know what makes a game good.

#35

I lost respect for them for both Left 4 Dead 1 and 2, but they had a lot of respect in the bucket anyway. Their recent announcements have been sort of out-there though. DOTA? What?

At least their quietness about Ep3 sort of gives an excuse for the BM dev team.

#36

Guess their “texture rangler” should leak ep3 to Atomic as well.

#37

I hope it’s not DotA. I’ve played it before, and god it sucks balls.

#38

^ right right.

#39

So they get an excuse for delaying it even further, throwing out almost all the leaked content and starting anew, like was the case with the leaked hl2. :wink:

Hope I didn’t give an idea for the BM dev team with this. :fffuuu:

I hate dota with a passion but since its gonna be on the source engine now I’m gonna write some leet hax and buy 20 accounts to piss off the admins on every server.

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.
