2:00 if that white board doesn’t appear in the game as an Easter egg, it’ll be a travesty!
I second this!
YES
yeah lol
that would be interesting
This is perfect, I really hope they decide to do that
ah man I was searching for a gmod addon that simulated wind drag and lift forces to build real planes, I never quite found one that worked very well. now I'm really looking forward to playing with this. (I think I said this on the last video too lol oh well)
Nothing these guys are making will be open-source, and they are using unreal engine 4, not Source engine. These guys have nothing to do with Valve, just amateur devs building a fan-made game.
We've open sourced the game's Half-Life 2 style movement code and a number of tool repositories at github.com/projectborealis :)
@@evolicious "Amateur Devs" They're redefnining wind physics for their own video game.

> Playing this.
You'll probably break this in every way, shape or form.
all devs: im gonna make these physics more realistic and very complex
me while playing: haha i shoot zombie
LMAO
*map editor*
*sets map to have mach 69 windspeed*
*puts headcrab corpses everywhere*
Plot twist: wind speed affect bullet projectiles
If it's implemented well, people will either notice and love it, or people will love the game but not think about why.
Even if someone didn't care much about technical mumbo jumbo back in 2004, I'm sure they still loved the physics that was so involved in the game.
haha funny ragdoll
Yoo this feels exactly like what Half-Life 3 would have been. Even the waiting time is so spot on.
This is a really good unique selling point just as half life 2 had the gravity gun, this could be used for a couple of puzzles between combat to break up the pacing a bit.
Now I want a wind zone weapon that spawns a temporary gust to blow enemies and items too heavy for the gravity gun or with with large wind resistance like a sail and to help the players jump long distances.
Super charged hair dryer?
Bass system. There is a prototype for flame extinguising
Maybe a puzzle that utilizes the magnus effect!
Just make it a giant palm leaf
yes! an Airblast would be a great idea for a new weapon
When your physics professor is also a game developer.
Game developers usually need a strong background in math and since math is the language of physics, generally developers who work on physics engines are pretty good at approximating physics phenomena with computers. The complexity with fluid dynamics isn't that its hard to understand, its just really hard to accurately model and compute without finite modelling techniques. The cool this that developers do is simulate physics like air drag, etc. is they make it accurate enough to seem believable and then optimize it in clever ways so that the simulation does not utilize a lot of computer resources, some of these algorithms and methods are truly marvelous.
rather have this for a physics class, then a Zoom call. Just have a gmod server, where a prof can use it to display basic physic ideas (e.g. kinetics, projectile motion)
@Tazer-Studios that's why i said developers who work on physics engines
When you are real life Gordon Freeman developing a game about yourself.
@@РоманСимонов-з2у nah, if it was Gordon, he'd say "..."

Ah yes box go roll. Thin box go fly.
for those worried that this project got abandoned, it didn't, Tyler McVicker (Valve News Network) said in a stream they're currently working on a Ravenholm demo/level
If Tyler McVicker said it, it's definitely true.
/s
I might be wrong, but didn't he say that 18 months ago? I could've sworn I remember asking him something like that in one of his streams
Now I know it’s officially dead cuz Tyler
Huh
@@youdonegoofed it is, but man's a constant jinx machine, he had to give up on Half Life to Valve release HLA
Project borealis is giving themselves such a high standart that i'm scared the game will be stuck in developpment hell
Do not worry. Valve have not joined the server :0 IF they do be very scared maggot ;)
Yeah it appears they are dumping a ton of time and effort into silly stuff like this. It's cool, but all that time and effort could be spent writing or making a better in game world.
@@rubiconnn Physics was one of the main Half Life2's selling points, it worked very well and people loved it. This is the same, but more.
@@Youuuuuu This is arguably worse. Now when you try to shoot objects at enemies with the gravity gun, it will wildly fly around and miss your target. It's not predictable making something that was already perfect worse. Whereas the time spent on shit like this could have spent on more important things.
Feature creep. Give it 4 years and the updates will stop. Valve dropping more VR shovelware is gonna put projects like these in a coffin.
Man, this game just feels so insanely high-production, and tight with presentation to be indie...maybe they have a secret big-budget sponsor?
Honestly , just looking at the production quality of update videos , websites , soundtrack makes me feel like i'm following an AAA development team , yet it's somewhat 20-30 half-life fans across the globe working together towards common goal of making their dream-game of beloved series.
No, it's actually more like 80-100, which probably explains why it is so high-budget looking. Even so, this is crazy good!
Valve
I'm pretty sure valve supports the development
Conspiracy theory: Valve knows that they can't release Half-Life 3 without people complaining.
They have Laidlaw release the story and many fan projects are born because of it. They either pick up the best looking one or already have a fake indie team working it, with the published material only serving as plausible deniability in the case someone suspects Valve is behind it all. In any case, they secretly pump money there while the developers at the main company concentrate their efforts on a lower stakes killer app like Alyx, that sparks back interest into the Half-Life series. When Borealis is finished they pick it up a la Black Mesa and publish it with their blessing.
People won't complain about an indie game, especially one as well done as this. Interest in Half-Life: Renewed, Half-Life 3: released, series: saved, VR market: revolutionized.
So glad you guys are innovating Half-Life to truly make this sequel your own. Take as long as it takes!
@Johnny Cage I mean Black Mesa takes like 15 years to develop until the final release.
@Johnny Cage It won't be a good game if it's made in a week. Stop asking for half-assed alpha garbage every week and actually be patient for good quality.
@@evolicious nice strawman. Less than 10 years and a week are nowhere near the same
Valve innovated Half life with Half Life Alyx by going VR.
@@Danuxsy I wasn't talking about Valve, I was talking about these guys.

Me grabbing saw and lunching it on a zombie
Wind: Uno reverse
oh god pls dont exist
If they polish perfectly this feature there's gonna be no problem, since an object with such density and speed and also thrown at such short range from the objective (about 30 to 45 meters roughly) isn't gonna be strongly affected by the wind, this resulting in the trajectory of the object not being strongly modified by the air
Yes, I love lunching saws
the saw will be aerodynamic
@@pablomejia953 especially, if they mean the circular saw blades, being thrown parallel to the wind direction it would cut straight through the wind, and if the drag is realistic the teeth being angled the way they are there should be a slight rotation, making it even easier to move through the air
Me a year ago: Is someone making Half-Life EP 3?
Me a year later: Must have been the wind
it was, episode 3 is never coming
Just how Gaben prefers it, to be honest I don't even think they gave up, I heard Gaben showed up at their hq and john wick'd em all.
@@dirk1998 they gave up the episodic thing a long time ago and HL3 was going to be released in like 2010 but they weren't happy with it
maybe alyx was meant to slow the hype so people would know what to expect and not get angry when Half-Life 3 isn't the best keyboard and mouse game ever made
to be honest, I dont think half life 2 is all that awesome, I'm pretty sure I have more playtime in FEAR, so I'll be glad that they're just finishing the story, and HL3 is NOT going to be the best game ever made, it's just the most anticipated game of all time
@@felixftw4702 I liked hl2 to me it's just a well made classic, I loved the story, atmosphere, music and gameplay, can't say I've ever played fear, and I've had doubts about hl3 being good since every time an update was asked about Gaben kept pushing it off, to me the longer they wait the more they'd drastically change about what was loved about the game, and I think they didn't have an end story made for the franchise either, either way I don't think I'd mind a fan made idea of what hl3 could be, that's why I enjoyed the news about this project when it started.

@@jocosesonata damn you!
at this point i am just convinced that there is something cursed about the third part of half life that makes any development efforts just fail or grind to a halt
Its an SCP
es una maldición o podría ser lo mas lógico que cualquier persona pensaría , seria que la empresa Valve los haya demandado por querer influir en el desarrollo de half life 3 o intentar cambiar la historia original que se tenia
Gordon: *launches a saw blade with gravity gun*
Wind: "So you have chosen... death."
No bro, the saw blade has a centrifugal force and cuts through the wind due to its geometry. It will not be affected by wind as long as you throw it correctly.

All makes sense now
Your brain so big
shh don't blow their cover
valve would make no devlogs if they would have made it
It's a fan-made Half Life 3
I am afraid if the HL: Alyx and and HL 3 rumors demotivated the team. There have been no updates for 5 months.
Nah, they once get asked about the ending of hlalyx and they said it will not effect the project at all
Oh, and they are making the video about the next update on Twitter
I have high hopes for this. I hope this doesn't get cancelled, it might be the only way to end the Half-Life series
I dont think they've been demotivated, I think they've just hit a point in development where you can't show off something flashy. I imagine they're doing a lot of back end logic, optimisations, lighting, shaders, etc that probably arent all video worthy. I also imagine covid may have slowed them down a little.
@Eli Nelson aaaand this could be the first "triple A" like game made by the community, if they keep this quality to the end
VALVe: "Half Life 3 will never be coming out."
Half Life Community: "Fine, I'll do it myself."
edit: Welp, looks like the mad bastards at Valve are going through with it after all.
@waffeltek well Yes but very few People will get to play it
@WeirdAnimation But us Non-VR people should count, too!
@@user-no3tu9kh3p Valve is future proofing themselves. Perhaps they will miss out on the die-hard fans, but in its place they'll get a lot of newer, younger fans.
People have been shelling out money to buy consoles just for a single game for decades. The only reason Sony does so well with its PlayStation is because of games like God of War. I can imagine there are at least a few hundred people who have purchased the Valve Index just for Alyx. I bought an Oculus Quest.
@waffeltek Probably not, but we can only hope.
@waffeltek I'm not sure how that works but I got it Alyx for free because I have an Index. I wonder if those are counted.
I have a feeling that this is gonna be the greatest fan game ever created...
Legitimately might be.
It's going to be a real Half-Life game! Not some VR bullshit that costs 500 dollars.
If they ever release it, it will be legendary
@@kamez1049 VR doesn't cost $500. It's also a medium that is lightyears better than a dumb flat square you sit in front of and push buttons.
It’ll be a real challenge to dethrone Black Mesa.

my guess is covid obviously messed with things. well probably get an update soon enough considering they just started becoming active on socials again

How do you know this?
@@JackRabbittm since june they have started becoming active on socials again, and more recently last month they made a post to hire people.

It died very badly because of half life alyx
@@siphobrisloks8133 Actually, a member of the team was asked in october 2020 if they had stopped working on project borealis, and he confirmed its still being developed.
They just don't post updates as often because they don't have a community manager anymore, and the development of the game itself has slowed down because of corona, and the fact that they're waiting for an upcoming update to the engine.
@@tanybrachid they should make it in SaUsE 2 but it's too late to use it now
@@tanybrachid so an already slow process is now even slower? I don't think the game will come out this decade, we will have Half life 3 long before this is done and it will be way better, HL Alyx came out like 1 and a half years ago...

The project is dead. They decided to start a huge undertaking, completely understaffed, completely underfunded, what in the world did they think was gonna happen? Unicorns weren't going to come out of the sky and go poof you have a game now. And with the release of Half Life Alyx, it changes the canon, therefor making Project Borealis's game, absolutely irrelevant.

I think that means your brain is overheating.
Most of these calculations (I assume) are just relativistic predictions of forces on objects and the resulting forces being displayed.
@@MatthewCobalt U big brain.
The ending of Half-Life: Alyx pretty much gives relevance to this project. It's going to take place in an alternate Parallel Universe/Timeline.
This is now the "prime" timeline
Nope, cause on the epistle 3 it explains much that alyx goes with gman leaving gordon alone at the borealis. Half life alyx happens after that moment and before half life 2. What im thinking is what is gonna happen after alyx's death.
@@explosivecommando9100 Alyx isn't dead though, she is just put into stasis by the G-Man in order to save Eli.
No it isn't
@@doughy_ ...So you've seen the ending and post-credits scene in Half-Life Alyx or no?
Game isnt dead yet, the devs are only just busy and silent about the project
check their twitter for proof
shhh dont tell them about half life alyx
Project Borealis: You Gotta Be Fucking Kidding Me
Alyx ends the game in the ending of hl alyx
valve should hire them and black mesa development team for making half life 3
BuTChERrrr Black Mesa looks as good as an official Valve remake of Half-Life 1. If you told me it was officially made by Valve, I’d believe it.
The alyx ending does not make borealis development useless because it takes another story not epistle 3 so this is like an alternative universe where half life alyx never happened
I really hope this isn’t dead but it seems like it
Same
RIP Project Borealis.
If this project is dead at least don’t pull a Valve and actually have the courtesy to tell us. And if it is being worked on, again, don’t pull a Valve and actually give us an update it’s really not that hard. The whole point of why this project was to be not-valve, it was to conclude the Laidlaw storyline. Yet you guys keep making the same mistakes they do, a simple Twitter, UA-cam or discord announcement would be more than enough just making sure we all know you guys are still going for it.
EXACTLY
Is the project still alive
must have been a misunderstanding or lack of will from the developers, I had no expectations of this project, I just wanted to see how far they would go haha
Probably doesn't help that they were being pretty exclusive as to who could actually help with development...
I’ve never seen this in any game before. This is so damn good I’m so happy to be a fan of Half Life. The creators of Borealis are amazing, and I hope Valve notices y’all because I believe you deserve it and more. Keep up the amazing work.
I hope if they get noticed, they don't get attacked for copyright infringement or something.
@@scr4932 thankfully Valve isn't like Nintendo, they know what their community do to their games and embrace it.
Andrew Blaha half of their stuff came from mods, so I’m sure they’ll support this.
They literally released their own engine when they were using it and many games were created from mods to the games with that engine. That's what I like about Valve. They give freedom to the community and are more then happy that people are enjoying that freedom.

@@tanybrachid they made some kind of teaser post on their twitter, so we may finally get an update soon

As a student in theoretical physics, it is really cool to see how you are able to compute such complex (not imaginary) mechanics in real-time. I'm as much hyped for Project Borealis as for HL Alyx. Keep up the good work.

After Half Life: Alyx, I'm wondering if Valve contacted these developers to work on the real hl3? They've done that before
That would be sick
@@leojwolfhouse8746 That would suck, most of these guys, although talented, are not at valve's level. It would most likely ruin the franchise for a lot of people.
Why would they do that
@@GaloTechDog like you know how to do anything that they are doing LMFAO
@@GaloTechDog They one hundred percent have valve talent and passion levels, if not more.
valve: we're not developing half life 3
Half life fanboys: Fine, i'll do it myself
Still don't understand why people confuse Half Life 2 episode 3 with Half Life 3
half life 3 comes out in like 2 weeks

There are "80" people working on this, but there is silence for 8 months? Not even an update? "Hey guys, covid slowed us down, but here's some stuff we've been working on..." Nothing? A Meme? A Rick Roll? Something? A headcrab drawn in MS Paint? Ported HL:A assets? an Ice Cactus? a left-handed Gravity glove so you can launch barrels without switching weapons? A synthed mongoose?...

i need this game
i want know the end story
They are still updating their github
@@josephmaluf1669 good to know. These guys have no obligation to work at a certain pace, but I do think it's unacceptable to announce a project of this scope and importance and not check in for a year. 5min of effort could give the community an idea of where things are.
They will still continue with the Epistle 3 story. That's what Project Borealis is about. The fact that HL Alyx exists won't stop them from making this.
I think that Alyx infact made a favor for PB. If Valve continued with Epistle 3 PB wouldn’t stand a chance against Valve. Still will play both if they are going to release and get a VR headset
The ending of HL:A is the ending of Epistle 3...so that story draft is kinda pointless
But when the world needed them the most, they disappeared.
Plot twist : the devs are now working for valve
I hope so, otherwise I'm pissed that they get us all hyped and then ghost us. If they've been working with valve, I could forgive them
@@leojwolfhouse8746 ehh, BM:S took 10 years, if this takes 10 years i wouldn't be surprised.

Rip our dreams
I was never this fast in my life
F
This would have been such a cool game
So um……….what went wrong?
Recent post on the subreddit explains.
Shit is never lifting off unfortunately from what I saw and witnessed.
Adding unnecessary and ambitious features instead of just making Episode 3, Project Borealis was basically overly ambitious feature creep, they should have gone more simply.
4:07 "I must go, my people need me"
It apears to be that HL3 is doomed to come out, even in non official releases, its trully depressing
Guys, I understand everything. Pandemic, Half-Life: Alyx, etc.. maybe work became bit harder.
But I'm sure you still doing what you like. Crowbar Collective shows us that great idea can live for a years, yet giving amazing result.
Hope you will soon shows something. Maybe not much, maybe only some technical improve in engine.. but at least, something. Here is a lot of people, wishing you luck and calmly awaiting for just something new.
Even if you don't have something to show for now - just hope you realize that behind your ambitious idea there is a lot of moral support from those who can't do that you dare to make real.
They don't even have to show anything, just acknowledge that they are still alive and working on the project. A year of silence to a fanbase is unacceptable with a project as important as this...a lot of people are counting on this experience to come to fruition.
alyx sheet worst HL in history
NO DIVD NO HL FUCK STEAM SHEET NOBODY USED STEAM
@@РостикГончар-и5ж "nobody used steam" exept almost every game since 2010ish also releases on steam. Lol
@@JukoYT Ahhh PR reales on steam and what?
THATS INDIE NOT aLYX
@@РостикГончар-и5ж bruh, valve designed steam, they own it. It is currently 1st game store in the world with alot of AAA games and indie games on there, world is going digital only, in less than 10 years cd releases will die out in favor of digital releases
Rest in peace Boreal Alyph...
Rest in peace Project Borealis...
Now all our hopes lie back on Valve...
Check Project Borealis on Facebook :)

@The V word I don't use facebook, just wanted to check Project Borealis fanpage
"destroy that ship gordon!"
uh oh i don't think this project is gonna come out
@@TacticalSocks i was amkeing a joke on how eli wants you to destroy the borealis and this is call project borealis
this is not funny
ok cool

Another dead project. What a waste. Next!
More than two years since the last video. Surely they could have posted something on their UA-cam channel if the project was still active?
So, project is dead i guess. So sad
