Thought this might be best to avoid any rage in the other thread.

Handy for those who need to discuss the game in more detail, require help with a specific level etc without fear of ruining it for anyone else.

Just like a bag of nuts contains the message "Product may contain nuts"...

THIS THREAD WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS.

Obviously, please keep general Portal 2 discussion to the original thread, this is only for discussing the campaign or asking for help on a specific level.

Considering what some idiot posted right after the OP i'd rather use this 1 tbh... that way people can enter it before they finish it without having the ending spoilt.

At least now we know what the potatoes were all about :D
 
Got myself a fresh problem. Have just arrived in a large dark chamber where you first hear the voice of the owner of Apature Science greeting a group of potential investors? Theres a broken lift to the surface and a big Apature Science sign hanging from the ceiling. I think I need to get over the fence to continue down the dark tunnel, but I cant figure out how to do it. Got up to the ceiling area and tried to use momentum from the portals to get over the fence, but its too far and I land too low to get over.

I know the solution is probably really simple but its totally evading me. Help would be appreciated.

Do you have a screenshot? I can't remember that section now.

I do remember getting stuck near the start where theres a huge Aperture Science sign in the distance and theres a walkway. Mostly because i was following the light and it took you past the door you were supposed to portal through.
 
No screenshots sadly and I'm actually at work now, so I cant get one either.

Its after the part where you get thrown down the big shaft and end up in the old abandoned part of the facility. You go through an area with a bunch of keep out signs and through a door. Then your in the big chamber I mean, where the audio clip from Mr Johnson plays.
 
Ah the bit right after it.

You get a hint from the Aperture logo when the middle falls out of making a nice ring. 1 thing you're probably missing... look up. 1 thing you have to remember in the abandoned section is to look above you as there is more often than not another level with a portal wall up there. I would always get stuck and it would take me ages to simply look up and realise how bloody obvious it was, happened quite a few times.

One of my favourite bits of the game was the original Aperture Science facility. The nice thing is, they didn't even give any of that away in the trailers! Came as a complete surprise, very refreshing, and LOTS of fun :D
 
A thoroughly enjoyable 6 hours from start to finish....

Certainly a few pull your hair out moments through sheer stupidity at times with some of the later tests but what fun :D

Great voice acting too, J K Simmons, now how fun was that! Going retro on the tests was certainly a highlight and the whole madness of near the end was terrific...

We're in Space :D

I tell you what though, the way the chapters read I genuinely thought after the first set of test chambers I was pretty much right at the end of the game haha! They certainly got me with the wording of the chapters!

^Loved that part, did you find the quartet in chamber 16, chapter 3?

Behind the vent with a turret in it? That was so random :p

Yeah the 'retro' cubes, super buttons and buttons was funny. Also the images showing people wielding the portal gun connected to a giant backpack :D

I thought i was at the end when Wheatley took over at first ><

GlaDOS's slow clap as you fall down the pit was hilarious :D "Oh good my slow clap feature made it in".
