Rumor: Leaked Concept Art Hints at New Valve IP

This isn't surprising at all. Has anybody else been looking at the updates for TF2 lately?
on the 5th there was an update which only said
"Team Fortress2
-[Restricted]"
And this isn't the only one. Evidently it's part of the "Potato-Based conspiracy",

Not sure if these leaked images are part of it, but valve is obviously up something...

For me to just because i would like to see how the put that in a video game and its never been done before at least to my knowledge.plugav said:I'm skeptical, but I have to say this: a Valve game about spacefaring pregnant women (pic 9) would be a must-buy for me.
The look of it reminds me of the style of IMMORTAL, even the weird faces are pretty close to some of the modified or nonhuman characters that inhabit the city in that movie

Maybe this is the way they're setting up the hype
Makes sense, they used a method like this to set up portal 2 too. They set up something strange, let the gossip go around, people start to make guesses, then bam, they announce it
and than it will be delayed by 4-5 months

well, I personally consider it one of the big online FPSes. yes, there are others that are more popular, but whereas a new Call of Duty comes out every 1-2 years, Valve and the community have been supporting TF2 with regular updates since it's release. the fact that a game released in '06 is still so popular is quite a feat in this day and age of 4-5 hour campaigns and sequels that barely change anything. plus, it's one of the best examples of balanced classes I have ever seen in a game.SultanP said:
as far as quality goes, TF2 did dominate the online FPS genre.
looks like photo manipulation to me.
for instance the artists at blizzard made that "jawa-wall" and covered the wall with doodles of jawa's doing things/in costumes. Only it looks like valve used photos of its staff.

Gabe Newel doesnt care about halflife people!Ekit said:
im not crazy bout the art style either. it IS interesting and some of it i actually really like. For the most part, its not something id be highly interested in but maybe a little here or there. Then again, with valve.. im sure they would do something worthwhile with it so i say lettem do it.
They could just be their for inspiration. Strikes me as the incredibly weird kind of stuff you can find in very early concept art.
Maybe they're brainstorming designs for some sort of alien/human hybrid or some sort of mutants.
Does seem more likely that someone's messing with us though.

Exactly, it would be interesting just to find out what they'd do with a theme like that.Alkore said:For me to just because i would like to see how the put that in a video game and its never been done before at least to my knowledge.plugav said:I'm skeptical, but I have to say this: a Valve game about spacefaring pregnant women (pic 9) would be a must-buy for me.
This looks kinda neat, but why is it that most games have to make aliens seem so... human-ish? I mean, most of these are just pictures/artwork of humans that have been altered slightly to make them "alien". Long ears and a different skin tone does not an alien make, dammit!
