They've made new 3D assets? That's nice, the extra detail will help the RTX shine even more.

 

[Moses85]

I want it so badly.

 

[Stuart360]

So will this be like what they did with Quake 2 RTX, where you get the whole game if you already own the orig game?

EDIT. V1laem maybe you should of checked the post below mine before laughing.

Yes. The game already has its own Steam page:

And it's going to be completely free for everyone who owns the original game.

 

[metareferential]

Can't fucking wait.

And can't fucking wait even more (?) for when it will be also VR compatible (maybe even at launch?).

 

[nkarafo]

That razor sharp corner of the building though. This is how you know it's an old game.

 

[Stuart360]

Yes. The game already has its own Steam page:

And it's going to be completely free for everyone who owns the original game.

Amazing. This used to be my fave game of all time, and it deserves a new facelift!.

But do you have to have an Nvidia card? RTX Remix is open source.

 

[Cyborg]

I would love a remake/remaster for HL1 and 2

 

[Schmendrick]

is that an RTX Remix project or are they actually redoing stuff manually?

 

[Skifi28]

I'm confused about these RTX remakes. I understand they're being made by modders, but the marketing seems more like something made by Nvidia outsourced to a developer studio.

They are made by Nvidia, to show off the capabilities of RT. Thats my understanding anyway. Pretty sure thats how it was with Quake 2 anyway.

Hope it's locked to Nvidia. Don't want AMD and Intel peasants enjoying this masterpiece.

 

[Stuart360]

To be honest the new assets and textures are more interesting to me than the RT. Those new textures look sweet.

RTX Skin & Neural Radiance Cache is coming to RTX Remix

Portal RTX will be updated with NRC. Should be a nice improvement.

Pretty sure they make them available to everyone just to troll AMD users (like myself).

No it runs on everything

But basically, it's to show AMD fans how useless their hardware is at path tracing

 

[GymWolf]

They also added new assets and improved the textures, this is not just a light\shadow glow up.

 

[GymWolf]

Yes. The game already has its own Steam page:

Do they finally added full controller supports to hl2?

 

[Gaiff]

Don’t wanna be that guy, but I prefer the darker image of the non-RTX picture. Those bright lights are way too much with RTX.

Also, the non-RTX image is modded, right? Because if it’s the original, it still looks great lol.

 

[llien]

Q2 was an attempt of a "fully path traced" game with no raster.

This says "full RT", but I have doubts.

 

[Stuart360]

Its been in the PC version since The Orange Box

 

[Sept Terrion Of Nothing]

Do you think we'll come to the point that one push of a slider, ray tracing (RTX Remix) will be activated for older games?

I can't but think that situation is much closer for Nvidia's marketing.

 

[Aces High]

Looks like a pre-baked Naughty Dog game in the most positive sense. Crazy upgrade.

 

[The Cockatrice]

The team remaking it seem to be looking for random people to do most of the new assets in the game. I wouldnt expect this to release anytime soon based on their twitter page. At the very least in 5 years or so.

Yeah when this was revealed I thought it was a year out. Now? It may as well be vaporware lol

 

[Gonzito]

Man...I need it

 

[Agent_4Seven]

Totally not worth 2000$.

 

[mopspear]

The orange and black part of the gravity gun always looked like the texture was put on wrong so I'm glad to see a changed version of it. Like it was rotated 90 degrees or something.

 

[GymWolf]

Does it work flawlessly or it is one of those old fps controller implementations that sucks absolute asses?

 

[justiceiro]

Lol, i think you can run this game starting at 549 just fine.

Whoa what the hell is going on here

 

[cinnamonandgravy]

HL1 remake done with the same level of care as the silent hill 2 remake would be amazing

 

[TintoConCasera]

Why not play Black Mesa?

 

[RoboFu]

nvidia is cool but hey are pushing old games to showcase their new tech which is a pretty funny situation IMO. Modern gaming is really that bad.

 

[Three]

The damn vines grew and took over the building. I imagine they're redoing stuff.

 

[Black_Stride]

Its one of the easiest ways to show how transformative RTX features are.
Cuz we remember the old game then we see the Remix version and our minds are blown.


Alan Wake 2 and Cyberpunk are both amazing showcases of what RT can do.
But Portal RTX absolutely floored me the first time I saw light naturally propagating through portals.
Even just general scenes were crazy and in my head this is always what portal looked like..
I ended up wasting alot of time just seeing all the ways i could play with light and portals.

 

[DragoonKain]

Console, please.

 

[Buggy Loop]

Console, please.

PS6 maybe

 

[Hudo]

Very good. Can't wait.

 

[cinnamonandgravy]

Why not play Black Mesa?

i played at hl1 remake like... 15 years ago
pretty sure it was black mesa, but when i google "black mesa" the screenshots looks quite a bit different.
maybe i played an old dev build.

ill probably give the latest black mesa a try, but id love a state-of-the-art HL1 remake.
give it brutal PC requirements, like path-tracing required.

 

[MDSLKTR]

Why not play Black Mesa?

I couldn't force any type of AA in it, it seems it got broke since the Xen update. Instead I replayed HL1 RTX and it was magnificent.

 

[Pimpollo818]

I love disgusting the headcrabs look now

Looks good, but I've seen better

It works flawlessly with a official Xbox controller. Not sure about some none official PC controller, or PS controller.

 

[Edder1]

Here's a 57 minute femo from last year's Gamescom for anyone who's wants to see how it looks in gameplay:



The thing should looks bonkers with state of the art lighting when it releases.

Demo of it from CES I believe
