Portal's Portal Gun, Meet the Team Fortress 2 Gang

Yet another reason to lay my hands on the PC version of TF2.

Nice work on the mod!

Valve? DO THIS!

It seems pretty cool, but put into practice, I don't really see how it could work all that well in a TF2 style of gameplay.

I wonder if you can fire through the portals...

The person who posted the YT video said in the comments that you can't currently. They had originally planned to implement this but the coder said it was too much work.

I like the idea of one of the other video comments- the mod should make a special class which only has the portal gun (and weak other guns) to instill a bit of balance (What semblance you can get with this mod).

Oh- and I'm of the opinion that this would break certain game modes more than it would break certain classes. CTF is the most obvious- you have a teleporter from your flag to ours which works instantly and which we can't destroy (unless we find the guy who made it and kill him, which will be impossible since he immediately TP'd to your flag and hid somewhere normally impossible to reach)?

Well, wouldn't it be possible to force the flag to be dropped if you went through a portal, completely nullifying that aspect? Yes, portals could still tweak gameplay greatly in ctf, but as long as you couldn't go through with a flag I don't think it'd completely break it.

Ooh! I wish I'd bought the PC version. That looks fun!

It's never too late y'know.

This one speaks the truth. I just bought the PC version last week, even though I've already go the Orange Box for the 360.

That looks amazing. Totally would break the game, but still fun!

 

[Nouw]

Congratulations! You have just broken a game!

It wont work

Yeah but it won't work brilliantly.

It could work. But as you said, not very well. Then again...
