Alright everyone, you know the drill! Let's all get too excited and start listing features we expect this to have that would be impossible to actually deliver. I'll start: HL3 is gonna have space battles where you can open up your cockpit and use your pistol if you get close enough.

You can tie the tongues of barnacles together and use that to bring down entire buildings when they reel each other in. Oh and btw it's open world and you can level the whole place ala bf3.

HL3 is gonna have space battles where you can open up your cockpit and use your pistol if you get close enough.

That's doable in Space Engineers, sure it ejects you from the cockpit, and if you have dampeners off you no longer have a ship, and your pistol does fuck all damage. But you can do it. 0/10 too believable.

There will be no HL3. Valve can't count past 2.

All of this also coincides with a rumored new VR headset (via copyright/trademark registration). Any new Half-Life installment is likely to be a follow-up to Alyx and not HL3.

Valve could do a funni by releasing Alyx 2, then Ep 1 and Ep 2 and nothing else.
