Dotastone the card game with hats

 

[bounchfx]

they're going to release a game within 18 months and then we can get back to saying how they never make games again, despite how often they update and support their multiplayer titles

its just kinda funny because portal 2 came out in 2011
cs in 2012 (with constant support)
dota in 2013 (with constant support)
as well as their VR stuff that no one will count

whereas we get an elder scrolls game every 5-6 years but you dont hear about bethesda stopped making games. yeah, they also made fallout.. but that's kind of my point. you focus on one thing and wind up ignoring the rest and the argument falls apart

games are comin' boys, i believe. i'd rather they take their time and do it right. It's not like we're in a drought of amazing games.

id be down for a valve card game

More than anything I would love to see a TF3. The amount of legs TF2 still has due to its community is amazing.

 

[How About No]

I won't get too excited

Spoiler

IM SO EXCITED

 

[DAHGAMING]

Eh?

My sources (Reliable sources) told me that Half Life 3 will be a visual novel with Mario Party elements.

Valve truly is a bastion of innovation.

What happened to those alleged L4D3 leaks years ago? Fake?

 

[twobear]

wow i'm shook, you mean they didn't create a whole new engine just to port dota 2 and call it a day?

 

[Obliterator]

Who knows at this point. I figured the game would have released by now with either a F2P or small $15 original price tag with tons of micro transactions / add ons. Still haven't heard anything of substance about it so we'll see I guess.

 

[UnemployedVillain]

Valve ain't developing shit

They found out people were excited for it and quickly canceled the project.

Orange Box 2:

HL3
L4D3
Portal3
TF3

 

[Memorabilia]

Side Question: Does Titanfall 2 still use modified Source...or did they switch to Source 2 (or something else)?

 

[DataGhost]

Will we finally be able to finish the half life series? I just want some closure.

 

[Clinton514]

No HL3 no care.

Team Fortress 3 hats are going to look awesome.

People are missing all the other Valve employee comments. As far as TF goes:

TF2 has millions of unique players per month, and the team is staffed by a group of people that love and play the game. We're committed to supporting and growing TF2 with new features, content, and player experiences.
We're currently working on our next major update, which features a new campaign, the Pyro class pack, matchmaking improvements/features, and lots of game balancing improvements.

I'm still a bit baffled at the silence surrounding Left 4 Dead 3. Even accounting for Valve's shift towards community focused multiplayer titles, Left 4 Dead as a franchise fits the niche perfectly, would easily accommodate a lot of the communal creation content adopted by other Valve titles, and itself is a very popular franchise that shouldn't have any issue performing well in the market.

I'm convinced it's still happening, I'm just surprised it's taken so long.

 

[LordOfChaos]

This frigging AMA, lol. He answered more Half Life questions than I remember him doing in years, even poked fun at a rumour of 3s cancellation ("I personally believe all unidentified rumours on the internet"), but of course left it in the same limbo as always.

 

[PLASTICA-MAN]

And when are they going to announce them? I hope old Valve games will get Dota 2 treatment and be updated to SE2.

 

[Deadstar]

Doesn't mean a thing. They're always working on unannounced projects, most of which never see the light of day.

TF2 still has the community because it's pretty much perfect (aside from the Gunslinger and Short Circuit). Maybe they'd surprise me, but I'm pretty confident that any TF3 would be at best a lesser version of TF2 on a better engine or at worst a lesser version of Overwatch on a shittier engine.

All they need to do is port it to Source 2, make it more beginner-friendly with things like a functional tutorial, and VAC ban everybody who uses the Gunslinger or Short Circuit. And then do absolutely nothing except maybe release a new map or two every year.

Well it is yet another confirmation that they have content, but also that their VR content will be announced this year - https://youtu.be/mJqo7XzwJd0?t=8m35s

 

[DocSeuss]

Is that what he said?

Yeah.

http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2015-11-16-you-have-to-be-shipping

As for what led him to sign on for another tour of duty with Ubisoft, it wasn't just the familiarity of going to work with some old colleagues. Hocking said the fact that Ubisoft has a pretty good track record of actually shipping games it starts work on was "absolutely fundamental" in his decision to return.

 

[Possumowner]

What's that sound....It's engineers stoking the fires in the hype train 🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂.See you in 2034

 

[Paasei]

Valve cannot count to 3, just expect older games to become prettier.

Or maybe a free mod that they can now sell.
