Gabe Newell Updates Interviewer On The Status of (Wink, Wink) 'Ricochet 2'

After asking Valve Software boss Gabe Newell a bunch of questions about the Half-Life games on the new Seven Day Cooldown podcast, an interviewer finally cut to the chase: “My final question and the question in the back of all your fans’ minds and everyone has been waiting to ask you for a long time: When can we expect the release of Ricochet 2?”(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); Valve fans know, that that is not the question all of Gabe Newell’s fans are waiting to ask him. No. Replace “Ricochet 2” with “Half-Life 2: Episode 3” or “Half-Life 3,” the either/or sequel that’s been missing in action from Valve for a very long time. Gabe Newell answered the question. It’s up to you to decide if he was really talking about Ricochet 2 “In ufa747 terms of Ricochet 2, we always have this problem that when we talk about things too far in advance, we end up changing our minds as we’re going through and developing stuff, so as we’re thinking through the giant story arc which is Ricochet 2, you might get to a point where you’re saying something is surprising us in a positive way and something is surprising us in a negative way, and, you know, we’d like to be super-transparent about pay69 slot ดาวน์โหลด the future of Ricochet 2. The problem is, we think that the twists and turns that we’re going through would probably drive people more crazy than just being silent about it, until we can be very crisp about what’s happening next.” Probed further by the hosts on current staffing levels for the project and whether there’s been a slowdown on the project, Newell replies “No, everybody who has worked on Ricochet 2 continues to work on Ricochet 2 [laughs].” For the record, Ricochet was an official multiplayer mod for the original Half-Life and was released by the company in 2000. Our own Luke Plunkett is a bit more up on the mod than I was and tells me: “If you haven’t played Ricochet, or even heard of it, I’m going to pull you up now: it was shit. ufa888 So shit, in fact, that on Valve’s site the company likes to pretend it never existed.” You should listen to the whole podcast. It’s great. Jump to the 21:05 mark if you want to hear the tones of voice from the part quoted above.
