Portal Impressions -~SPOILERS~-

Gaijin said:
Hi chaps,

I'm not sure what level i'm on but its on advanced and its the level where there are loads of turrets, except this time they are all in boxes and so can't be eliminated. I've got to the point where you are in a room with lots of turrets and have to place a box on the button to open the door.

Is there any other way to do this part without having to build a wall using the blocks to shield you from the turrets?

Its taking ages and wearing a bit thin. :(

Erm....

Portal in the ceiling to drop block on turret.
or
Portal in floor for turret to fall through.
or
Portal in floor, wall or ceiling and sneak up behind turret to move and disable.

etc etc

Go crazy....

Edit: Sorry. Didn't read properly. Sorry.

On the advanced version of the map none of that is possible as the turrets are in cages.

Sorry I can't help Gaijin but I'm still trying to figure it out, had nearly all the turrets blocked but died and had to start again.....very frustrating!
 
On the Advanced map with the Turrets, I only blocked 2 of the Turrets with the boxes, the rest you can skip past if you are quick with the portals.
The 1st 2 Turrets you come across that face each other, I block the one closest to you, then I portal to behind the one on the right. I then shoot a portal into the room with the 2 turrets so i am behind them. I then grab 3 boxes, stack them infront of the turret on the left closest to the room where the 1st exit door is.

Then it's just a case of picking up a box, running forward, jumping and throwing the box onto the button. Create a portal behind the 1st Exit and then portal through it.
 
From what I can tell there are roughly equal numbers of people who are saying it is repetative and that it's too short. Therefore it must be perfect.

If it ended on level 19 it would have been a meh, but it turned out that it was just a hazard course for the real game!

Thanks for the tips...done it now.
 
You should check out Jonathan Coulton's other songs. I really like 'Creepy Doll' :)
 
Booo Im stuck on what I think is the very end of chapter 19.

I shot the rocket at the big white speaking robot in which a part fell off and left like a green and purple circley laser coming out but I cant work out what to do?! Ive run out of ideas...
 
Topgun you have to throw the ball into the incinerator. Turn the incinerator on by hitting the button in the little bunker to the left.

The laser thingy is a sort of tractor beam for the spherical part, just make portals so you can get to it and pick it up with the use key, there's 4 in all to destroy by chucking in the burner, put the part near it and then make a portal above the burner, go to the swtich and make another portal underneath the part so it falls through the floor/ceiling and into the burner

Damn. It must have been bugged and I kept trying that before but they were half stuck inside the pipe thing!

Thanks, ending is great :p
 
This game is total crap, it takes like an hour to complete and takes no thought at all, I heard it was suppose to be a puzzle game. It's like prey but with really crap music I mean WTF with that **** at the end. Total waste of time and it tries to hard to be funny it's painful.

/Sense of humour bypass/ :rolleyes: :p
 
I really enjoyed it.
On the +
I thought it was pretty funny
Felt it was fairly original
Thought some of the levels where hard.

On the -
It was short
holds very little replay value (for me at least)

You really are just a troll arent you.

No WAY IN HELL did you do the entire game in an hour (not just lvl1-19) unless you incinerated yourself and thought that was the end.

My steam profile says 1.2hrs of time for portal. I completed it once from start to finish and got to the bit where you get outside and theres like a petrol station then a birthday cake and then some stupid song. And all the time shod... sorry the computer was talking about how it was joking it was going to kill me and stuff.
Very boring.
 
Just finished the game gets a 10/10 from me I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the game. As a final note..

This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction.
Aperture Science
We do what we must
because we can.
For the good of all of us.
Except the ones who are dead.
But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are still alive.
I'm not even angry.
I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart.
And killed me.
And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.
As they burned it hurt because I was so happy for you!
Now these points of data make a beautiful line.
And we're out of beta.
We're releasing on time.
So I'm GLaD. I got burned.
Think of all the things we learned
for the people who are still alive.
Go ahead and leave me.
I think I prefer to stay inside.
Maybe you'll find someone else to help you.
Maybe Black Mesa
THAT WAS A JOKE.
HAHA. FAT CHANCE.
Anyway, this cake is great.
It's so delicious and moist.
Look at me still talking
when there's Science to do.
When I look out there, it makes me GLaD I'm not you.
I've experiments to run.
There is research to be done.
On the people who are still alive.
And believe me I am still alive.
I'm doing Science and I'm still alive.
I feel FANTASTIC and I'm still alive.
While you're dying I'll be still alive.
And when you're dead I will be still alive.
STILL ALIVE
