I think if valve was ever to release ricochet 2 it would be a VR game. Valve has said they have been working on VR games for quite some time. It would be the perfect VR game considering how the mechanics work and how much fun it would be playing it in VR. They were first to revolutionize modern gaming, this would be the perfect valve game for a relatively new platform.
Level 1337 player here on Ricochet answering that silly question. Yes, we still play this game, there's a small group of people dedicated to the competitive side of this game.
If Ricochet 2 actually comes out it would be amazing in VR. Like imagine jumping on one platform while throwing a disc behind you at an enemy chasing you.
You should really do more of this. There's a ton of really good Half-Life multiplayer mods that would be fun to play together on a weekend where you can livestream it too if you want. FireArms, Deathmatch Classic, TFC, Day of Defeat, Natural Selection, The Specialists, Vampire Slayer, Wanted and the list can go on. Really fun stuff, easy to setup, easy to pick up and play, perfect to a community interaction from time to time.
The instant I started up Ricochet, your video popped up in my recommended. Like, this cant even be coincidental anymore. The timing was just too good to be true!!
I love the disappointment when warowl realizes how dumb internet can be sometimes, just like me watching a 2 year old video and still posting a comment dreaming that people will still see it.
You know, RIC, when I first saw all those RIC's and Liam's, I thought, "Gee, that kinda devalues our bond." But then I realized it just means that our relationship must be pretty special to span over all those different timelines.

I havent watchewd the video just read the title, but: THANKS WAROWL! :D I've been playing Ricochet at a "competitive" level, meaning we always looked for other players/teams to compete against. It was purely amazing. Simple game, simple maps amazing. Also, if anybody is interested in "Ricochet mastery level 9000", take a look at "Tribes Asend". The shots that are possible in that game is purely amazing (I have an old montage in my profile but I mostly recommend the 'I am King' videos by the palyer binswees here on YT).
RUBBER BABY BUGGY BUMPERS I love this. It's like early WarOwl themes with modern WarOwl sensibilities. You didn't just drop into a throwback game, you did a little awesome throwback creativity with it.
Used to love this game - I need to stop being old and get in on this whole social media thing so I see fun announcements like "come play ricochet". Good stuff.
That interview with Gabe is rumored to be him actually talking about HalfLife3 when asked about Ricochet 2, Gabe didn’t like answering questions about HF3 so he answered a HalfLife question when asked something else.
A few years back me and my brothers all bought this and went to play we saw a server with 2 people in it and joined.... they were arranging a drug deal Nevada yeah we never played again lol
It's a really stupid simple game, but it's a surprising amount of fun. I prefer fortress forever however. Sad to say nobody plays it anymore, it's quite dead at the moment, but it's a lot of fun. It's got a ton of cool custom game modes and it was really fun when folks still played it.

There was a really cool mod for Half-Life called Vampire Slayer that I played a ton of way back. Slayers vs vampires, 4(?) classes on each team, slayers get guns and crossbows and stuff, vampires get special powers. I last played it like 5 years ago and I seem to recall that there were a handful of mostly empty Russian servers with really high ping. Worth checking out - it even has bots.
warowl is officially the world's greatest ricochet player

Hes good at every game he plays.
WAROWL >> PLEASE DO VAMPIRE VS SLAYERS .... I PLAYED THAT HL MOD 18years ago .. please find it .. it was the most fun as a kid.
they put the game on sale at 90% right after this video so people will buy it
and i actually bought it

I'm gonna play it

That would be really cool
Can't wait to fall into the purple swirl in VR !
"AHHHHHHHHHhhhhhh"
No
Vomit simulator VR edition
Ricochet skins gambling when?
Hyperbeast death scream
When ?, After half life 3 released prob
Knowing Valve, Ricochet 2 would probably be a competitive esport that you need to play for 20000 hours to get good at
stay mad nerd
-T-X-M- cheaters in cs? no shit! grow the fuck up and stop complaining kiddo.
And never release the 3rd
And it would include a paid membership, tons of micro-transactions/loot-boxes, horrible anti-cheat, and tons of bots that ruin the game.

Bookworm Adventures Deluxe got nothin' on Ricochet noob
@@TheWarOwl not an accurate statement
Rip :( even though i never played it looks like a game id play with my friends back in the day
Exactly
Ricochet 2 coming April 12th
But we're not sure though.
that's my birthday!
@Shallex ew dude, don't splooge in the comments
What about Ass-Portal and Portable Cleveland Steamer?
Ahaha
Does warowl makes cs go videos anymore?
Yes he does :)
Next SoloQ in 2020, heard it here first. :>
Of course not...
tbh I'd prefer if he plays even more games that he enjoys
He still does, and i'm happy he also plays other games

do people still play deathmatch classic?
Unfortunately no, and almost the same applies to team fortress classic
there are still some russian tfc server near me
@@lambda2657 There are about 200 people average playing tfc, but 90% are too good to have fun with

@@xenhysics5926 Try playing as a sniper, heavy, demo, soldier. The have the easiest time killing without using the FUCKING NADES
PSA: Ricochet is not on sale for $0.50! I’m picking it up, we all need to buy this game!
short answer: no.
that's my comment idea wtf
long answer: negative.
i stole your idea from your brain before you typed it.
Long answer: nope.
we don't need anwsers for things explaining themselves.
damn the nostalgia is real on this one
Not going to lie, this game is super fun. Played with two friends last night. Genuinely the most fun I've ever had in a video game in a long time!
Can you do a video on day of defeat source or red orchestra 2?
To be honest i just watch the intro over and over again. Can't get enough, it's like the falling thing. 10/10 Content here.

Oh my god it really is in my library... I've never played it
Falling into that black hole is horrifying
9:18 "we jump from platform to a platform..." coincidence i think not.
I literally only have this game because activating the product code for HL1 disk unlocks basically every goldsrc game
I was actually playing Ricochet when this video came out, as well as TF Classic and Half Life.
i was suprisingly ok at tfc when i played it for the first time
Bro, even back in the days nobody played this game.
I always look forward to watching your videos. Keep it up!

Bulgaria received a moment of glory at 4:14 in a WarOwl video. Our nation has peaked.

And you see a reply of this cooment after 2 years
Yeah...
at first i tought gabe newell suddenly talked in voice chat
I remember playing with my friend and there were a 3 total players, honestly such a weird/nice experience
I was waiting to see this for 3 years
Do people still play ricochet......NO!
Then how did he played with others?
You know, RIC, when I first saw all those RIC's and Liam's, I thought, "Gee, that kinda devalues our bond." But then I realized it just means that our relationship must be pretty special to span over all those different timelines.

This game is great if you have a lot of friends to play it with. Me and my friends made a Ricochet Steam Group a couple months back.
Ricochet 2 will come out before Half Life 3 imo
Highly possible, especially when considering the fact that HL3 isn't coming. Ever.
I don't see why not. We know valve *can* count to two.
wrong, he got half life 3ish first
Ricochet 2 is Valves code word for Half-Life 3
missing *you are the star for all the wrong reasons* matchmaking academy videos badly -_-
Yes me too. But he has a reason. On his stream he said it's because he already covered everything so he can't really do any more matchmaking academy videos. Plus, most people send in troll demos.
I was literally thinking about you uploading about this game yesterday
Not only has WarOlw killed the cobblestone in terms of queue time, he has single handedly revive ricochet he truly is a God
I wonder if the basic concept couldn't be the base for a game that isn't LAN party only, but more of a competitive type. Great game for LANs though! Tnx for the vid WarOwl!
Damn, how much did you payed these people to come and play with you?
I'm a member of Rebel Gamers Clan (RGC), I chuckled when you mentioned us Warowl
Anyone here after Ricochet 2 speculations in the hla files
0:08 I thought he was going to end the vid right there and then I saw the rest of the video time and I’m like nvm
No but maybe now
Im top 25 players bc noone plays xD
Blast from the past! Good youTube content! Keep up the good work War Owl
Ураїнська is spelled like "Ukrainska"
we used to play this at all the lan parties. it was epic with like 10 people in the game
MAKE RICOCHET GREAT AGAIN!

"Over 100 ping! Woah!"

He played once
you have now rewened the one hour left of my day by reminding me them guys died

Our LAN community loved to play this game for a short time between 2000 and 2002. Great and fun game. (:
do people still watch warowl?
"do people still play ricochet" i knew the title hella hard but like, this experience was fire and you are an amazing person warowl ♥️
I just love when you upload man
I wish that Valve brings back the Deathmatch Classic, I was playing that game so much in my childhood. :(
Used to love this game - I need to stop being old and get in on this whole social media thing so I see fun announcements like "come play ricochet". Good stuff.
Man I used to play a lot of Ricochet when I was a kid, such a throwback!
From I can tell ricochet looks like Tron disc wars. Just need to play this while listening to glitch mob's to Tron reconfigured album
People didn't play Ricochet even when it was new.
Love your videos. Always looking forward to your next.
