I'm a bit into the third chapter. So far it's triple A stuff, better than much of my first time experience of Half-Life 2 itself.

I love how the HDR is implemented, I can play with smoothness like never before!

It looks a million dollars and I was ready to throw this 9800Pro on the scrap heap! I guess Lost Coast IS intensive simply because of the other assets like high res textures etc.

 

[Loke]

It looks really gorgeous with HDR, one of the best-looking PC games I've played.

It's awesome. Only into the second chapter (fixed 'the tootsie pop'), but it is hell lot of fun.

 

[PvtRyan]

It's awesome, better than HL2 even so far imo. More difficult too. Think I'm in chapter 3 now, at the end.

 

[Solaris]

It's well fun

I agree some parts are better then hl2 and it is more difficult

 

[baron insig]

it is definelty more of a challenge, especially the dark bits!

 

[Parrot of doom]

'tis a great game

Wish they'd make the characters talk louder when you walk away from them though - next step I reckon.

 

[baron insig]

yeh, i found it hard to hear her say gordon look the fook out

or is that you touching me ?

the interaction with alex, was also a lot better and i found her useful instead of a nuisance tho the hugging bit at the start felt a bit odd

 

[Lemonking]

its good..I just wished,they would have expanded it ,more

 

[Ennui]

loads of fun
that falling debris part was hard as shit

 

[baron insig]

it was a lil short, but it was still immersive, i didn phase out and 3 hours of my life dissappeared as i was gordon freeman ppwning zombines and the like

it felt longer due to some of the hard bits!! which started todrag after dying a few times (playing on normal)

i felt liek i had a lot less ammunition than the HL2 , and i had o conserve isntead of going gung ho!


Edit: te debris was easy, soon as i realsied the onyl bits which were gunan do damage were the big bits alelx pointed out,

Hardest was last citizen saving bit died so many times cos of those bsaterd combines

 

[kupocake]

tho the hugging bit at the start felt a bit odd

I thought that bit was brilliant, but then I'm a habitual hugger so I'm used to it
