Rumor: Leaked Concept Art Hints at New Valve IP

[tric565]

looks like concept art for a new alien swarm game to me.
I hope so, there seemed a lot of potential in the concept of that game.

This could be one hell of a horror game if done right. I'm dying to know what those insane weapons do.

ladies and gentlemen, im afraid we wont be seeing episode 3 for quite some time

20 bucks says it's the culture

Looks interesting, I hope it is a new IP. Just please don't be another FPS.

is there anything else valve does?


fuck heres another wild guess, maybe, just MAYBE, the game will use the source engine

 

[Lissa-QUON]

Hunh interesting.

Kind of interested to see if these do become a actual game. It'd be something new to look at even if the game blew chunks.

Uhm, THEORIE:

Steven spielberg's cancelled game codenamed: EVE

Reminds me of the defected faces of the Splicers in Bioshock....cept in a more sci-fi way? Lol.

System Shock 3 ! You forgot they hired Doug Church !

 

[soundoflights]

I think valve just likes to torture us.

 

[Mr.Amakir]

Half-Life 3 maybe? Could be Humans in the future or even Combines from the Combine homeworld.

you wish

hell

I wish...

but if its the culture they got the ships all wrong. completely uninspired designs ripped from EVE online.

Definitely not a leak - can't imagine Valve of all people would walk some journalists right by a bunch of concept art for a brand new game whilst they're taking high-res shots with a flash on.

Yeah that makes so much sense.
Also this could just be doodles, not actual concept art.
But if it is, that's some of the most interesting concept art for a video game I've ever seen.

Also, I think it's totally cool for Valve to work on new IPs in before Half Life. They're too creative to work on HL all the time. Take your time, Valve, we know the new HL will be awesome.

Does anyone else think valve is procrastinating on more important things by releasing new ips and steam tf2 stuff? I mean, it's getting slightly ridiculous. The entire gaming world has been waiting for hl2 ep 3 for so long! Hell, even if you don't feel like working on that, hows about dedicating a couple of weeks to patching tf2 360 not so we can have everything on steam, but literally so the game is gorram playable. Of course, this might not be a new ip, but the point still stands.

Also, I have the new found worry that valve may not even release hl2 ep 3 on consoles. That'd be fine if we didn't already have all the other hl2 games, but as it is, that'd be like watching a movie and then being told you have to go to another cinema to watch the finale.

Speaking of new stuff from Valve,

this is fake right?

 

[TsunamiWombat]

I'm assuming this is new IP and based on the images, about Aliens hiding on earth as people, Men In Black style.

Speaking of new stuff from Valve,

this is fake right?

No. Thats a real game/mod.

EDIT: Now i know what this reminds me of: Jovian Empire in EVE ONLINE [http://www.eveonline.com/races/jove.asp]
A civilization who liked gene-splicing. Ended up as hyperintelligent cancerous freaks of nature.

You mean EVE has a point other than waste a month of real-time just to maybe hopefully have grinded enough macgiffins to level your ship up 0.1%?

How should i know? I only played the 14-day trial. Didn't really catch me.
But i read some stuff about the story, including the story of the different races.
Interesting stuff.

Those spaceships look awesome! Maybe Valve is going to revive the Space Shooter genre. Been dead for YEARS.

 

[BarbaricGoose]

Hmm... looks like Valve looked to Scott Bullock's avatar for inspiration.
