Everyone looked it up.

By trying everything in the room for 15 minutes.

Know what?

This thread will 404 with 0 discussion. Meanwhile the trap/big bulge/pics you shouldn't share/fur threads will hit limit.

Welcome to /b/.

>>722907170
I used an office chair to get up to the shaft

>>722907563
That you have to use portals to redirect a missile to hit the pipe to get a box. The only time you can actually break a pipe.

>>722907598
You're not wrong.

>>722907693
I'm sure a lot of people worked around it. Makes more sense that breaking a previously unbreakable pipe.

>>722907697
>The only time you can actually break a pipe
Yeah but before that we saw things get broken by missiles so it was kind of obvious when there was jack shit around.

>>722907758
I never even considered that until I played with the commentary nodes on

>>722907944
I've never done that. What does it say?

>>722907900
Took me forever to figure it out. Just because I assumed the pipe was not breakable. And saw no reason to break the pipe even if it was.

>>722908037
It talks about setting up the idea of using the rockets by having you break the glass earlier in the segment

>>722908119
I wanted to break them the whole game but nothing was really breakable the whole game, once I saw a chance I took it.

>>722908215
I guess that does make sense. They made you break the glass before that.

I missed it though.

Wondering what everyone else did at this point. How long they sat there.

>>722908287
So you picked it up right away?

>>722908852
No I think it took me a bit, can't really remember the game in detail, especially that part. But I think I was talking to friends and tried it as a joke out of boredom not knowing what to do

>>722909024
Similar thing happened to me. I was just shooting portals around and a missile hit it on accident.

Just played this shit for the first time today and I was able to figure it out in about 10 min

>>722907598
I feel this in my soul.

We used to have chats /b/

:<

>>722909209
We still have chats they're just out of the closet chats now

>>722909149
Just beat the commentary mode and I got to say they really try to lead you into certain concepts rather gradually, but they definitely couldve done a better job with that part

>>722909319
Just seems like there used to be less trap and dickrate and shit.

The shit posting was new interesting.

Maybe it's time I move on to R9K...

>>722909441
I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought so. All the other mechanics were introduced well.

That was the part I spent the most time on. Using the chair led me to believe that I had to throw it into the fan on the other end of the shaft, resulting in death.

>>722909529
I like it cause I'm a fag, but it's probably way to overboard.

>>722909813
Lol. The fan killed me as well.

>>722909814
I mean, I'm pretty gay myself. It's just that there are dedicated porn boards.

But /b/ will be /b/.

>>722910018
Yeah, /b/ likes porn too much. I would prefer just trap discussion threads over porn here, we don't need this much porn

>>722907170
My game wasn't a one trick pony I can breeze through in an hour, wah!

Not my complaint.

Most games introduce you to mechanics then build on them to let you figure it out from there.

This mechanic was just here. In all other instances the pipes were not destructible.

Still love the game though. Portal 2 was fantastic as well.

that games taken me 10 hours, and im still not finished, its not to difficult but i am deathly afraid of heights

>>722910384
Dude use meme arrows, I had no idea this was mockery.

>>722910747
Oh might be a bad game for you, I'm not afraid of heights but the sounds and blur while falling make me brace for hard impact.

>>722910747
It only takes about 30 minutes if you know the puzzles.

If you're afraid of heights I can see some of them being rough though.

>>722910384
>2016+1
>not using meme arrows

>>722907170
They intruduced the glass breaking moments ago, that was quite straightforward.

>>722910747
In only noticed I'm afraid of heights because of this game (and games like this)

>>722912032
Glass breaking, yeah. But the pipe seamed our of place. How were you to know that breaking it would give you a box?

>>722912121
I bet you love Mirror's Edge yeah?

The cake was real.

>>722912188
>But the pipe seamed our of place
that's probably why I concluded it.

>>722912236
Never played that. Next up (excluding some self built minecraft things) was Dying light, especially the tower and the bridge.

>>722907170
Someone explain

I beat portal without even looking anything up, but that was 10 years ago. it was quite easy.

>>722912926
It just wan't clear to some that you need to blow this pipe up.

Myself included.

Yeah it wasn't too bad. The only thing that gave me trouble in Portal was the puzzle was the energy ball thingy and that two walls that stick out. Anytime I play it I forget how I did it and end up ricocheting it somehow.

>>722907697
>missile
>glass pipe with boxes that you need in them
>wot the fok am i supposed to do.

you are a dumb fuck

>>722908119
have you even played half life 2? shit breaks all the time.

>>722913551
portal was one of the easiest games ever.

are you female?

>>722907170
This is a prime example of why most people are retarded and have dumbass belief systems. If this wasn't obvious to you quickly then chances are you fail at much more in life and your judgment isn't as clear as it may seem.

>>722913733
I actually played Portal first. Bought Orange Box just for Portal. Figured later I'd give the other game a go.

>>722913829
Nope.

>>722913914
You're not wrong.

>I actually played Portal first.

>>722914129
I know. I was a casual back then. I had heard of Half Life but never got around to trying it out.

Half Life 2 ended up being one of my favorite games though. Still is.

>>722907170
im pretty sure i just started redirecting missles everywhere, since they were the gameplay element that was introduced most recently, then broke the pipe by accident

if you dont trial & error you are definitely not playing the game / right

>>722914466
>back then

no you still are

>>722915470
You're not wrong.

>>722915470
Holy shit the alpha in you is strong

>>722907170
I actually didn't have a problem with that part.

>>722916841
Seems to be about a 50/50 split.

>>722907170
oh thank god. I thought I was an idiot. yeah I just made a chair fort to climb

>>722914129
I've only played Portal/Portal 2.

>>722913695
I love that room. an adrenaline rush of timing and logic madness.

>>722918076
yuuuup

>>722913914
that was literally the only breakable pipe in the game. and it was a weird use of logic unlike the rest of the game.

>>722914129
oh I'm so sorry that the massively successful and amazing unique puzzle game was played before the outspoken cult classic that many many people have never even heard of.

>>722918581
What this guy said.

>>722918675
I thought most people were at least familiar with the game.
