What's up with the auto stick to the portals deal?

steveyo · 03-21-2012, 08:33 AM

I don't remember this in the first game.

I don't even need to keep my eyes open when trying to land in a portal 100 feet down. The game plays itself!

Oh god, I can't be a gamer any more even if I want to, because games now play themselves!

HOW DO I EVEN MAKE A MISTAKE?! IT ISN'T EVEN POSSIBLE!

WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?! (same thing as the call of duty series: let's make our games super easy for little kids who aren't good at playing games that require skill. ugh valve you just keep doing more and more and more to make me hate you more and more and more. I don't have any more hate to give. stop doing this.)

Portal 2 = equal parts outdated tech demo and loading screen. I'm hoping just during the beginning of the game is full of loading screens. If it's like this the entire game I'm going to kill myself as there's just no hope for this world. 2012 and here's a game with more loading screens than any game I've ever played in my entire life.

I think I feel a ban coming on!

Seriously though, at least make your posts somewhat readable so we can somewhat get an idea of what your opinions are!

And at least finish the game before making a whole thread on one little detail about it; you're complaining about how you 'float' into portals when they are below you, which was put in because it's annoying when you fall down and just clip the edge.
You're complaining about the game being too easy; yet you haven't actually completed any of the later, (somewhat) harder tests.

tl;dr: It's a PUZZLE game, not a HOW WELL CAN YOU FALL INTO PORTALS game!

Neat. Too bad he isn't involved with the game at all.

Yeah, you're wrong. It was in the first game. And I don't think the focal point of the game is about being pulled into a portal (well, apart from the ending). And also, you can make a mistake, and still be a gamer, even IF the game helps funnel you into a portal.

Your argument is rather flawed and illogical. Good day, sir.

Stop complaining and just turn it off, simple.

sv_player_funnel_into_portals 0

(Note: does not affect props. Use sv_props_funnel_into_portals 0 to turn it off for props too)

Plus this was in the first game too. Lol, selective memory ftw?

Yup. That's about all that needs to be said on the matter.

And I'm sorry the 15 second waits in between maps are getting in the way.
