Portal 2 Details Leaked

Yahtzee doesn't necessarily hate co-op, as seen with CoD: MW2; he hates playing online with people he doesn't know and can't punish for being assholes. And there's going to be an ample single-player campaign, so it probably won't bother him that much.SavingPrincess said:

OT: as long as i get my dark humor, im happy.
I think the new gameplay elements are simple, but I also hope they won't make the game needlessly complex. Portal achieved a lot with only a few simple elements. Really, how many elements were there?
-Flinging
-Push switch
-Box and pedestal button
-Turrets
-Orb and catcher
-Moving platforms
And that's about it. Now, those elements were mixed in many devious ways to make 20 test chambers (there's a chamber 00 too) that may not all have been equally difficult or complex (the game first really takes off at chamber 13), but still each chamber was different from the previous one and combined existing elements in a new way. I'm afraid that the implementation of too many new elements might screw that balance up a bit, though Valve should be all right if they stick to the Portal way: make puzzles hard to figure out, but easy to execute.

D'awww, the little bots are so cute. So, what, after the revised ending in Portal 1 (or is that Portal classic?), Chell gets put into some kind of cryogenics, then gets back to labratting? Excellent. And I'm totally digging the new scenery--can't wait to try and portal through a tree.
firstly I'd much rather have a new Portal game than a new main-line Half-Life game, secondly I hope the "hundreds of years" part is a lie one way or another, or at least that something really weird that corresponds to it happens in the next Half-Life game, because I wanted them to tie into each other and having this so far after makes it seem unimportant
Hmmm multiplayer portal could be 100% chaos. shooting them at peoples feet causing them to land right in front of you. Firing through them only for bullets to come out in peoples heads the next hall over. using them for momentum to get away insta escape plan...I mean the possiblilites are endless. And so fast paced you could lose your bearings so easily and..damn..just think about it.
On a single player note..well 100 years later in a jungle..that seems a bit silly. But then again after the massive sleeper hit the first one was who knows. If someone explained the premise of the original to me without ever palying that game i would think that could never work or be interesting either.
