d0ct0rscarecr0w Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 why is everyone being so spoiled. Its a free DLC and it's coming in Mid-September which in my opinion is pretty soon. I for one am thankful for Valve adding to the game at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TombRaiser Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 I almost forgot that they were going to release a new DLC soon. So, I haven't really been anticipating it. On another note, for anyone who also plays on the game on Steam, they added 1 new achievement called: Talent Show - Never lose a cube in Chamber 6 of the Mobility Gels co-op course. When I saw that, for a minute I had thought the DLC was released. Makes me wonder why they added a new achievement in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I saw that, for a minute I had thought the DLC was released. Makes me wonder why they added a new achievement in the first place. That was part of a summer promo. Various Steam games got a new achievement, and completing them would get you tickets for prizes. If you got 3, you could get the Summer Shades item in Team Fortress 2. I don't know if there were other prizes, though. I learned about this from the TF2 wiki and it only mentioned that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just bought the game specifically for this reason. Was a steal at $30 brand new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooked0nEbonics Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Its a free DLC and it's coming in Mid-September. ... which is still summer. Everyone fails. I just bought the game specifically for this reason. Was a steal at $30 brand new. Where'd you get it for $30? I got it for $40 a few weeks ago... maybe I could do a price adjustment.

Graupause Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 So excited about this! But I still think there should be a special achievement for finishing the coop with your gf ("Aww, that's a cute robot!" "Yeah, that's turret." "He's adorable! I want to give him a hug" "WAIT, THEY..." *BAMM BAMM BAMM* "OMG, WHY DID HE DO THAT!?!?"). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MewMew Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 (edited) This^ Valve plans to produce downloadable content for Portal 2, with the first content expected to arrive in mid September 2011. I just bought the game specifically for this reason. Was a steal at $30 brand new. Not bad for new. I've seen that as the price for used. I bought mine off a friend for $20 though. Practically new as he only played once, and I don't know if he did the co-op or not. Looking forward to the new stuff, so long as none of it takes place in the abandoned lower levels of the facility. I hate that area. The chambers are HUGE. So excited about this! But I still think there should be a special achievement for finishing the coop with your gf ("Aww, that's a cute robot!" "Yeah, that's turret." "He's adorable! I want to give him a hug" "WAIT, THEY..." *BAMM BAMM BAMM* "OMG, WHY DID HE DO THAT!?!?"). XD The turrets are adorable, but I know to stay away from them, except for my different little friend. I save him, and leave him guarding the walkway to scare off intruders. I've spared a few of the others when possible, too, facing them at the wall so they can't shoot me. They're just too cute. I wouldn't kill any of them if they didn't make me.

Maybe they will make a new achievement for this - "Pacifist". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah there was 20-30 different prizes, and iirc if you had a certain amount of tickets you were put into a drawing to have a chance to win your entire Steam wishlist. I stockpiled so much stuff onto mine and didn't win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they will make a new achievement for this - "Pacifist". God, I hope not. I didn't mine the "Out through Blue", and the one for not getting hit by a bullet in Portal: Still Alive. Mainly because the out through blue helps make portaling easy, and less confusing later in the game and in Portal 2. Not only that, but Portal 1 was short. If I had to play all of Portal 2, with always exiting through blue and not taking a bullet I would go crazy. The cheebs they have now are great, and I hope they add some more SP and co-op. I beat the SP in one day, and the co-op in another. The third I used to get all the cheebs I wanted. At first I thought it was gonna be a pain, but wasn't really hard at all. It's what makes the game great, hard enough to be fun, but not too hard you rage and throw shit. Can't wait till they release the DLC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BanzaiMike Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I've just seen this on the Portal 2 website - "Oh yeah, by the way, before we forget, the first Portal 2 DLC, "Peer Review" will be out next Wednesday. For free." Looks like that was placed Friday. I like how it says "first". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0ct0rscarecr0w Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 wait so have achievements been confirmed? Honeslty if they are making achievement I hope they are challenging. Maybe not get all 18 gold medals challenging! (can't believe I actually got that achievement) but something that takes a little time and a little work, that way it feels like I earned it.

I don't want anything more challenging than the Portal 2 achievements. Those were the perfect difficulty. I sincerely hope there aren't gold medal achievements again (at least not an insane amount like The Orange Box). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not because they might not be planning more DLC and then Microsoft might require later promises for achievements. I hope they are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope this is the case, not 'cause I'm a cheeb whore, but because I feel it will give the DLC purpose, and not something I can just run through and be done with. Something that will take a little effort to accomplish, thus me getting my monies worth. >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
