Subject: i wish bungie was like valve

???

please watch this first



what i mean by that is, i wish it had a humongous budget with alot of time on their hands. valve was funded by 2 millionaires who worked at microsoft, and because of this, they were able to keep their game in production as long as they wanted. if bungie were able to do this, think of what could happen! the game would be relatively perfect, and all the things they would have cut out due to time restrictions that they have done in the previous games would be there! think of it! the multiplayer would be fantastic, we'd have way more maps, guns, characters,and campaign levels. valve spent so much time on their game, that there was no way it couldn't be a smash hit! i personally believe that bungie is just as good as valve, they just don't have the time and the money, which is why i think it would be the greatest halo game yet if they were valve



here's a list of their games:
Half-life: winner of over 50 game of the year awards
Counter Strike: highest played multiplayer fps ever
half life 2 deathmatch: a multiplayer version of one of the best games of all time
Day of defeat: valve's worst game, but still very good
half life 2 and episodes: known by many as the greatest game ever.
Portal: greatest puzzle game ever
Team fortress 2: one of the greatest multiplayer experiences ever
Left 4 Dead: closest game to a hollywood zombie movie

what do you guys think?

I think more guns would be horrible....The amount in guns in Halo 3 is already to much imo.

And also Left 4 Dead was fun....for a month....then after that it was just really boring.

But if Bungie had no time constraints and a lot of money to make a really good game then it would be great.

Portal is only game I truly enjoyed.

HL2 and TF2 were alright, just didn't find them as great as everyone said. Glad I only borrowed the Orange Box =(

just making sure you know, there's an extended version of portal on the marketplace.

Being 100% awesome, 110% of the time.

Bungie already makes great games even with the time constraints they deal with...If they had as much time and money as they wanted just think what could happen. It would be so perfect that it would tear a hole in the space time continuim

All the game in your list suck so bad. I never got into counter strike, half life or team fortress because they were ither too old, were not fun or looked like a damn kids cartoon(team fortress)

Pluse left 4 dead is one of the worst games on the 360, I would not put it in my disc tray if I got it for free.

I will be there to answer your questions! No matter how obvious or stupid they may be, don't be afraid to ask. It'll pay off in the long haul.

half life and team fortress are both great games Team Fortress is way more mature than Halo even if it looks like a cartoon, and every half life game got the game of the year award

you have no idea what your even talking about

Half life was decent, I played it a bit on my PC. Halo totaly destroys it though.
As for team fortress. It just looks stupid. you can load it up with swears or whatever but if you got a game that looks like the cartoon network your going to fail.

And left 4 dead is just stupid. I dont understand why but the world is crazy about zombies right now. All the damn movies and video games about zombies, Its just stupid.

Valve are some brainy pimps!

But Bungie is funnier! :P

Oh, got a little carried away there. What has this to do with Reach?

Wherever you roam
so far from home
you'll be safe from peril
life threatening and terrible
if you avoid David Powel
and keep track of your towel.

Yeah, Valve's pretty cool.

There's a lot to be said for following a reasonable development cycle though.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

Any game company will do better if it had unlimited time and money for production.

Why didn't you just say, "I wish Bungie had a larger budget."? Bungie is its own studio, and isn't or shouldn't be like any other studio.

  • 10.30.2009 11:55 PM PDT

Plus valve got boycotted by there fan based community. That's why left 4 dead 2 is awesome and its only a demo so far till nov

  • 10.30.2009 11:59 PM PDT

Um... I like Halo? I don't really know what to say. I'm a student at the moment, I hope to become a criminal profiler, and I enjoy pretty much everything as long as it's good.

My grandmother used to say "Opinions are like noses. Everyone has them, and everyones is different." What I mean by this is all of the things you said are opinions and so should shut the -blam!- up. The only good game Valve has ever produced (Once again, this is an opinion.) is Portal.

Valve didnt make:
Counter-strike: It was a mod of Half-life 1
Portal: Made by a small internal team, mostly people who made a similar game in college.
Team Fortress: Half-Life 1 mod
Day of Defeat: Counter-strike mod

Valve did make:
Half-life 2: Had horrible set backs, leaks, and many cut levels, enemys characters, weapons and vehicles.

Team Fortress 2: A remade and far better version of Team Fortress. One of the best multiplayer games ever


The amount of time spent on a game does not make it better. Games have set budgets, goals and time constraints. If your game doesn't hit the set goals you're going to go over budget. Half-Life 2 was subject to many, many changes throughout its 5 year development. Parts of the game were leaked online during it's development, which in turn made Valve decide to change many elements of the game. If you watch youtube videos of the games trailers you will notice there are many different looking locations, weapons, weapon features, enemies and vehicles. Games change a lot over development until they hit their end result.


tl;dr: Half-Life 2 wasnt better because it took so long to make. It was good because the developer is good.

You know that the cartoony look is the whole point of TF2 right? I'm actually a big fan of the stylised look in TF2.

Also, a few of us were talking during matchmaking and Halo: Reach is definitely going to be, not a first person shooter, not a third person shooter, but a second person shooter. Bungie is going to revolutionize the way you watch other people play games.

Valve certainly comes out with some damn amazing games. With that said, Bungie does pretty good on their own end. I've drawn comparisons to the two developers in the past, and I think I'd give Valve the slight edge in the end overall. However, each studio has their strong suits and each developer has revolutionized the FPS space in several different ways.

L4D sucks I'm glad bungie isn't like them Bungie makes better games.
