" Please guys, just for the record, use spoiler tags. Much thanks. Good luck, have portal. "
" After sticking at 32% for a while, decryption jumped to the end, but the servers are too busy to finalize installation. Now I'm posting pointlessly in a thread about practically nothing. hhnnggghhh "I am posting in this thread because I have to copy the game files to another computer, as the locked content wouldn't register properly on steam before the game got active. So have to wait a bit more before I play it on a proper PC and not a laptop.
" @FengShuiGod said:And co-op gestures cost money. Seems kinda lame. If this stuff had been extra and added after the game had launched, ok. But to have this content ready pre-launch and charge for it? Meh. I mean, I won't buy it, but it's still something that seems a little backhanded. Meanwhile, at Valve....." So Portal 2 has a store. Yeah. "TF2 HATS CARRY OVER! HELL YES! "
" @Koobz said:this blows. mine got past 32% but is now stuck at 66%" After sticking at 32% for a while, decryption jumped to the end, but the servers are too busy to finalize installation. Now I'm posting pointlessly in a thread about practically nothing. hhnnggghhh "Story of my life "
Just popped out of nowhere as done downloading. I wasn't planning on playing it until tomorrow but knowing it's right there is REALLY tempting.
Mine too. What the eff." mine's an invalid installation of portal 2GAH "
Well, actually it says incomplete installation and when it tries to complete it fails at 2%. I don't want to have to re-download it again...
Yeah, I just decided to follow the link to the support page. In my experience that doesn't usually prove useful but it did in this case." INVALID MEANS THE SERVERS ARE BUSY KEEP CLICKING!!!! "
In any case that is some sage advice and I will keep clicking for about 5 minutes then I don't care.
Edit: Awesome. "Ignore the warning and keep trying" totally worked.
" Wait, what's this about hats? "There is a store in Portal 2 now where you can buy hats, gesture for the robots in co-op, items, ect. Hats from TF2 carry over.
Anybody seeing big glowing error signs in game? It looks certain objects in the game are replaced with these ERROR messages and im not sure if its part of the game or not.
" @FengShuiGod said:Nah, seems kinda gimmicky. Day one micro transactions? No thanks. I'm not paying $1.99 for a gesture called Atlas Shrugs that allows the round robot to...shrug. Maybe if this was something extra that was added in later, but day one? Meh." @ajamafalous said:D: OH SHI- ...I wish I had money now "" Wait, what's this about hats? "There is a store in Portal 2 now where you can buy hats, gesture for the robots in co-op, items, ect. Hats from TF2 carry over. "
Yeah, I got it on my computer now, took a long time to decrypt. I'll play it starting tomorrow. With all this hype, I want to be on the up and sober side of things, had a few beers and am thinking of bed.
I hope it pans out as good as the media machine is cranking out it is. well, PC Gamer anyways. I think GB has been almost but not quite been more into MK. Or at least there has been a sense of balance for these 2 attention competing games coming out the same day. I'm doing Portal 2 myself, but I kind of respect that.
OH GOD TF2 HATS IN PORTAL 2
I'M LOLING SO HARD RIGHT NOW
VALVE IS MASTER TROLLS FOREVER.

I played it for about 10 minutes (all I planned as it is quite late) and it's great.
Wish I could be playing this instead of waiting for my Amazon preorder (what can I say, $15 off is $15 off . . . :P). Oh well, I won't have much time the next couple days to play it anyway so I'm not too disappointed.
" Everything was going so great. The first chapter was classic... then I discovered there are TF2 hats in Portal 2. Now I have a robot that wears a Pyro beanie and I don't know what the fuck to think now. "PLAY MORE TEAM FORTRESS 2 AND UNLOCK MORE HATS!
Hats > DLC, Fact!
" OH GOD TF2 HATS IN PORTAL 2I've probably put more hours into TF2 than any other game ever. And yeah, the hats are gimmicky. But they were added in after the fact. That's what annoys me about Portal 2. Gestures that the robots should kinda have anyways now cost $2 even though they were made before the game launched. If there are random drops somehow it will be less annoying, but still.
